I'm using this platform for a long time. It's my favorite tool for all types of learning. This makes my work fast and easy.
Pros
Best and most powerful platform for all educators who want to make online courses for their students. This platform gives freedom to make PowerPoint presentations and webcam with both screens great advantage of this. Very professional and no type of glitch.
Cons
I never notice any problem while using it. I really like it so much and recommended it too. This makes video upload and embeeding fast.

Kaltura is a valuable tool that integrates wonderfully with Canvas LMS. We have it set up for Teachers and Students to upload and publish videos. Kaltura has also launched In-Video Quizzing, so students watch a portion of a video, and then are prompted to answer a quiz question before they're able to continue watching. This interaction is awesome.
Kaltura's customer service, however, is horrendous! Out of all of the technologies I manage for Utah Valley University, Kaltura is by far the worst at responding to emails and fulfilling customer requests. For example, I sent an email to their customer support account and cc'd our customer success manager and technical rep over a month ago, using the instructions provided on their site, and have yet to receive any response.
Also, the Kaltura Management Console (KMC) is all Flash based. It's 2016. Seriously. Update the KMC.
Pros
Great product for end users, especially the integration with Canvas LMS.
Cons
Customer Support is the absolute worst. And the KMC is Flash based.

Kaltura is the worst product I have ever used
Reviewed on 30/1/2021
My overall experience with Kaltura has been horrible. I will never use it again.
My overall experience with Kaltura has been horrible. I will never use it again.
Pros
I will never use Kaltura again, this is my 6th try using the software and I find it impossible.
Cons
Kaltura needs some sort of software update to improve functionality, it is probably the most clunky software I have ever used. Examples of issues I have had with Kaltura include: recording lectures for a class - as I am recording a lecture the software will just quit. When I try to reopen the software to see if the recording saved it will not re-open. It unexpectedly quits regularly. I also has an issue with editing videos. This software and its integration into Canvas is beyond slow to the point of not functional.

Kaltura has been very easy to work with as a faculty member and gives students a good viewing experience.
Pros
Kaltura had integrated with the rest of the university's technology in such a way that it is extremely easy for me to use and highly useful for me and my students. Every one of my classes is automatically recorded and stored in Canvas so my students have access to every recording without even knowing that they are using Kaltura. I have experimented with the desktop screen recording solutions for my virtual classes and it works pretty well. It doesn't have all the features of a dedicated screen recording app, but it does record the screen and camera separately and lets the students choose which to watch after the fact, which is pretty cool.
Cons
On the desktop screen recording tool for Mac, I can select a portion of the screen, but I can't have it record just one window, which I would really like to be able to do.
Response from Kaltura
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. It's always a pleasure to read about our customers enjoying our products.

We took note of your suggestion about window selection and sent it to the team for review. Thanks for that.
