Hippo Video reviews

Personalised videos at scale and really solid and reliable support team

Pluspunten:

We have integrated personalised video flows into our CRM process, allowing us to produce personalised videos at scale. This was a key differentiator from competitors and has worked as expected. The support from the team is very good. Anything in setup or queries that come up start in live chat and are either resolved fairly quickly or anything requiring additional support was regularly and clearly communicated about. I was even having trouble getting the final step of personalisation into my CRM flow and I had a call with product team providing immediate guidance and advice.

Minpunten:

A couple of the team have had minor issues with the likes of the desktop app (vs Chrome extension) but regular updates helped fix these. Support were also proactive in providing assistance and updates.

A mandate for remote work

Opmerkingen: Hippo Video is one of the greatest assets my company has. I cannot imagine running this company without Hippo Video.

Pluspunten:

The easeness of Hippo Video to create videos makes Hippo Video invaluable to anyone who has a remote job. The screen recording capabilities along with the option to record yourself on webcam are profoundly positive. I am able to communicate with my team in an effective manner even though we are thousands of miles away. I can also communicate with clients via screen recording videos...easily.

Minpunten:

The customer support is really bad. However, once you get through it, you do not need to contact them anymore and you will be set up to use Hippo Video on your own.

Hippo customer review

Pluspunten:

At first, it was easy to use and free

Minpunten:

It wouldn't always load and I couldn't find the controls

One of the better video creation platforms

Pluspunten:

I like that they added AI enabled avatar video creation. The avatars are mixed quality but it does speed up the video creation. I also like the ability to customize the landing pages.

Minpunten:

Still a lot of manual process for bulk creation. Also, even though there is AI avatar creation, it would be great if there could be a way to customize the videos for each recipient. So, for "John", the video would be created using speech synthesis that addresses his name. Otherwise, each custom video created has to be manually created

Excellent tool

Opmerkingen: Excellent, We have had a great experience with Hippovideo.

Pluspunten:

I have come to like the way the interface is designed. It is a very high quality tool and one that is very robust too

Minpunten:

Nothing, I really like the tool. It has been game changing for us

Where is [sensitive content hidden] Hippo Video

Pluspunten:

First of all I like the fact that you can personalize a video message that is not a large file and know if the client has actually opened your email, watched your video, how much they watched, etc. It personalizes your messaging. I have had advertising agency clients mentioned they had never gotten a video message. Stood out when you need to stand out in a very crowded world. I titled my review Where is [sensitive content hidden] since I was trying to get in touch with a client and just couldn't get him to respond. With a humorous video that had me searching for him he responded within minutes of watching the video.

Minpunten:

There are a ton of tools and they are trying to give you a great deal of them to do a wide variety of things. Though many I don't use there are times when it can be a little be of a challenge getting around to where I need to be on say the Sales Page.

Forget Loom, Hippo Video is so much more Flexible

Opmerkingen: I love it and will tell people to choose this over loom any day because of the ease of use, integrations and how easy it makes marketing to clients.

Pluspunten:

I have been using Hippo Video for several years now and the updates never cease to amaze me.

Minpunten:

When I first started using it, the green screen option wasn't great, but now it it much better.

Bringing Customer Engagement to Life

Pluspunten:

I like the capability to create 1:1 introductory videos with ease and customize an accompanying landing page. This has made it super easy for our CSMs to create personalized introduction videos going to their assigned accounts. We also liked the ability to create video hubs to easily share curated resources with specific accounts.

Minpunten:

I think the new AI enabled features are very exciting but could use some polishing as they do not look very realistic. In addition, the team did experience some bugs while utilizing the features above. However, the Support team at Hippo were very responsive and helpful in troubleshooting.

Double the Donation uses HippoVideo

Pluspunten:

ease of use for the team and easy for recipients to watch the videos!

Minpunten:

some of the menu options are a bit confusing

Video made easy

Opmerkingen: Fantastic, recommend the product as so easy to use.

Pluspunten:

So easy to use, not complicated but feature rich.

Minpunten:

Nothing and I really like the branding and GUI

Hippo Review

Pluspunten:

Works well, easy to utilize, easy to deploy to users.

Minpunten:

Have not found an issue thus far with the platform.

Nice way to promote yourself, team or product

Opmerkingen: It´s a great Video creating utility, easy to use, with a lot of details and very versatile, it only took me a view training videos and read out some instructions, and i was ready to go with Hippo Video.

Pluspunten:

It´s a great utility to make videos and promote yourself, by doing an introduction and explain your job role and by adding it for example in your email footnote, people can click on your Hippo Video link and se your presentation.

Minpunten:

sometime i got lost and forgot how to go back, but i think it is because of my ignorance

Great way to keep branding while shaing with prospects and clients.

Pluspunten:

I like the way I can brand the pages to look really sharp and switch out page elements easily without having to create something new on my website.

Minpunten:

I was using the Brave browser (Chrome-based) and it will not work on that. It was annoying to have to switch browsers since all my work was in the other browser.

Very Useful

Pluspunten:

I like how Hippo Video delivers a LOT of value on all of their membership tiers, in my opinion, it's the biggest thing that sets them apart from Loom, Vidyard and other competing videos, you get a tonne more for your dollar with these guys.

Minpunten:

I wish you could click and drag to move around the "webcam bubble" when you're doing a screen recording video as you can with Loom and Vidyard. Sometimes an element of software I'm trying to record myself using is behind that bubble and not being able to move it creates some frustration.

HIppo videp review

Opmerkingen: i had a very good experience like i said it gives me very high quality videos

Pluspunten:

it makes a good editing site that is very easy to do

Minpunten:

there not really anything i dont like about this site

Completely brandable video marketing and costumer support sollution

Opmerkingen: - Getting as personal with the customer as possible without the need of live communication -> Informing extensively about services and building trust about the promised outcome
- Gathering video feedback and testimonials without any hassle for the costumer to set up his tools properly

Pluspunten:

- Brand your shared videos with a top bar logo, a player logo, favicon, page titel and your own domain - Clean Google Chrome extension to easily start recording within seconds - Guest recording: Send a link to a customer, via which he can record himself a video (testimonial, query etc.) - Fast and customer feedback driven development of new features

Minpunten:

- At the moment they need typically 15 - 20 days to set up the custom DNS for you so that you can use your custom domain - The shared video pages offer commenting and emoji reaction features. You can only disable both simultaneously. For lot clients commenting would be useful, but emoji would be too playful

Outbound Sales Tool

Pluspunten:

Integration into Hubspot and Apollo.io. This makes my outbound prospecting seamless.

Minpunten:

Slow to load and save videos sometimes through 3rd party integrations

Best video recording software I have used so far

Opmerkingen: Great

Pluspunten:

The product is easy to use provided you have a strong internet connection. I have only used it for meeting recordings and yet to use the other features but so far it has been great.

Minpunten:

Still yet to find out. As I continue making use of it and accessing all features, I will give any additional remark I might have.

I'm using it to record my video on Youtube

Pluspunten:

First and foremost the best part about this tool is it's a web-based application so I don't need to store any big files on my 128GB Mac that is already struggling with storage. Secondly, I bought the lifetime deal of this tool on Siftery deal and I have been using it from like past 1 month at the time of writing this review and I think I won't be going anywhere else know

Minpunten:

This is a pretty new tool compared to the other biggies in the market but that's okay knowing the team is working day and night to make it the best video recording tool in the market. I think I'm in safe hands while writing this review. I'll update if anything goes wrong anytime in the future.

This is the BEST extension ever.

Opmerkingen: I don't use it very often BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT the fact that I don't forget how awesome it is over the gaps I don't use it is proof all by itself that this is the best extension ever.

Pluspunten:

I like that if I ever need help(which I don't) all it takes is a swipe of my finger on my keypad and it gives awesome suggestions.

Minpunten:

There isn't anything I don't like to be honest.

A must tool for your business!

Pluspunten:

Ease of use, interface, support final product

Minpunten:

Cant really say anything right now, however will update if something emerges

Hippo Video has helped our company communicate in a visual way!

Opmerkingen: We can easily communicate with a team, clients, customers. The videos can be edited in so many ways we even record training for new employees.

Pluspunten:

The interface. It is awesome and very user-friendly. The app is full of features that do not exist in another app. We used Loom, Cloudapp, but nothing comes to be so intuitive and well thought out as Hippo Video. The team, they are extremely responsive and fast to implement new features!

Minpunten:

There is nothing to dislike, but improvement can be just a release of new awesome features for business world!

Pluspunten:

Minpunten:

nothing much so far i still don't know how this will help me

A Free Program to Use

Opmerkingen: I am able to quickly make videos and send them to my teachers.

Pluspunten:

I like that it is free for basic services.

Minpunten:

I wish there was a free plan specifically for educators. This would give us a little more freedom with editing.

Hippo

Lagging, cut out from time to time, long wait
