Our system offers public, template-based end-user applications and user interfaces, as well as a browser-based user interface for the management user.

You retain the content rights of the videos

You will always retain the rights to your videos when you use the Icareus Suite video cloud, unlike when you use e.g. YouTube or Facebook.
