Like many existing lecture-capture solutions today, CourseCast captures video-based instructional content, automatically streams it over the Internet and makes it available for students and lecturers alike in all of the popular formats. That is where the similarities end. Panopto's flagship product, CourseCast, is a second generation platform whose design goal was to simplify and make more affordable the promise of education on demand. CourseCast integrates with your existing infrastructure, dramatically reducing your up-front investment in equipment. CourseCast ensures that every stakeholder's process is simplified, not made more complex. This means making it blindingly simple for instructors to teach from their own equipment, for videographers to easily manage their workflow, for students to easily access superior quality recordings in any manner they choose and for administrators to be able to scale their use of the system without paying exorbitant costs in the process.
So, whether your goal is to increase enrollment in current programs, create a more immersive learning experience for your students, or generate revenue through the creation of new dynamic distance learning programs, Panopto is there to support your objectives with the most powerful, flexible platform to date.
