Every organization today understands the need to incorporate enterprise video in organizational communication, learning and collaboration. However, promoting video use in the workplace necessitates that your employees across the company can create, manage and share videos with ease and efficiency.
Therefore, empowering your employees with a user-friendly enterprise video content management system (EVCM) that single-handedly manages video – from upload, processing, and streaming to storage, playback, and distribution - is the key to establishing a video-enabled organizational culture.
Simplifying video capture: Where to start
Within the entire video management process, one of the greatest values of an EVCM is to empower your employees to create videos. The simpler the user experience of capturing, ingesting, and uploading videos, the easier it will be to boost video use across the organization.
For this reason, VIDIZMO enterprise video content management system simplifies video capture and upload which also serves to facilitates the remainder of video management within the platform.
Video capture in VIDIZMO video platform

With broad-ranging support for all industry-acclaimed video file formats, VIDIZMO supports video capture and ingestion from any video camera or recording device. All uploaded videos are encoded into multiple pre-configured formats (MPEG4, HLS, WebM and Microsoft Smooth Streaming) and resolutions (1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p) to allow playback on various devices, browsers, and bandwidth conditions.
- Mobile video capture and upload
VIDIZMO application offers the same functionalities across all user devices, including desktop, laptop, smartphone, tablets, etc. Accordingly, VIDIZMO supports video ingest and upload from any device, with the user interface optimized for each device. Additionally, VIDIZMO mobile application for iOS and Android allows users to shoot, capture, and upload video directly from your mobile phones and tablets.
- Bulk ingest/ upload videos from third-party collaboration tools
VIDIZMO provides out-of-the-box integration with various online meeting or video conferencing tools, including Skype for Business, WebEx, GoToMeeting, Cisco TelePresence, Polycom RealPresence, as well as collaboration systems like Microsoft Teams, Facebook Workplace, SharePoint, Sitecore, Jive, Yammer, etc. An essential part of this integration is to transfer video and other media files from the third-party systems into VIDIZMO for storage, transcription, search, and distribution across teams or organizational units and overall video content management. As a result, large volumes of files from integrated collaboration and meeting platforms are automatically transferred and uploaded to VIDIZMO ‘watch folder’ individually or in bulk.

For screen recording, VIDIZMO uses a range of third-party screencast or screen capture software, including Camtasia, OBS, Captivate, Articulate, CamStudio, etc. Screen capture tools like OBS and Camtasia also support talking head video presentations along with the screen capture video, which makes the screencasts (live or on-demand) more interactive and engaging. Screen capture videos are excellent for recording training sessions right off the computer screen, while also documenting transferrable skills from a company’s subject matter experts or for new hire training.
After video capture: VIDIZMO media upload
