The benefits of online video in the operation of an organization are many

Efficiency in communication

Improve the quality and quantity of internal and external communication. According to research, up to 93% of internal communication groups consider video an important work tool.

Better competence through training

Everyone is a visual learner, at least in the sense that our brain receives most of the information it processes through our eyes. Research shows that we learn even better when information is presented in a way that targets multiple senses. In addition to the image, the video usually contains sound and/or text, which helps to clarify and increase the amount of information conveyed. This makes it a particularly effective teaching tool.

Cost savings

Organizations have published results of how, by transferring their training to video online, they have obtained tens of percent cost savings and even hundreds of percent annual return on investment.

For example, Microsoft calculated that in three years it achieved a 569% ROI and 13.9 million dollars in annual savings with the help of its Academy video portal.

Saving time

Participants don’t have to travel, able to instead use their free time to their advantage. They also don’t have to attend at a specific time, so they can study when it suits them best.

Market and grow your sales

Up to 74% of B2B managers watched work-related videos weekly and ¾ of consumers were more likely to buy if they first saw a product video. Icareus Enterprise Video offers call-to-action video features and integration opportunities to improve inbound sales.

Share your passion

Video is an effective form of media because it is effective in evoking emotions, and emotional memories leave deep imprints. With the help of videos and live streams, anyone in your organization can easily and widely share their expertise and position themselves and their organization at the top of the industry – seeing is believing!

Eco-friendly

Online video and online events have a significantly smaller carbon footprint than physical events.

Increase in brand value

With the help of live streams and online videos, it is easy to use the expertise found in your organization and thus increase the value of your brand, because video viewing is constantly increasing.

The benefits of Icareus Video cloud for companies and third sector actors

Simplify your internal online video process

Live events and webinars, communication and training videos and SoMe videos - manage, edit and publish videos all from the same cloud service in a browser. No more need to transfer videos from one service to another.

Produce, edit, and subtitle teaching and training videos easily and conveniently

With the Icareus Studio tool, you produce and edit high-quality videos that look like your organization - by screen capture, recording from a webcam or by importing videos into the tool. With the Icareus subtitling tool, you can subtitle videos manually, or by using artificial intelligence-based raw subtitling, you can quickly get barebones subtitles for videos.

Publish your video quickly anywhere

Research has shown that your own video service prolongs viewing of business videos, compared to social media. Publish top-quality videos, with the organization's brand, on the website - either compiled in one place on your own video portal, on video pages and channels compiled according to different themes, or embed them in your online services or e.g. LMS learning environment or SharePoint in your own video player, without installation.

Increase the viewing time, amount and effectiveness of your videos and events

Our own video cloud service increases viewing time and optimizes interactivity, and these increase the effectiveness of the content and the engagement of your audience - unlike in social media environments or YouTube, where the average viewing time for a video is only 6 seconds.

Webinars and other live-streaming events in the look of your organization

Publish sales or training webinars and events on your own pages or in your own event URL, with your own brand, interactive, open, protected, with registration or paid, easily and quickly without the help of a website updater.

Increase the effectiveness of your marketing communications

Publish videos in a brand-safe environment that matches your organizational look. Share your own videos with your stakeholders, e.g. the media, with your own video player, which directs the viewer to your website (and not e.g. social media). Also take advantage of the various advertising and marketing features of our service, such as preroll or display campaigns. You will no longer advertise other brands on your website or let your content mix with your competitors' content.

Cyber and brand safe environment

Keep full control over your contents and their rights in a cyber-secure manner. In your own video cloud, only you own the rights to your content and decide where, when and to whom it is shown. Videos cannot be copied or edited and published under someone else's name as in SoMe services, and they do not mix with other social media users' content.

An easy-to-use, inexpensive and quick-to-deploy cloud service

You can use the service even in a day, and anyone who works in communication, marketing, training or content can use the service.

Merchandise content… when your audience is ready to pay for it

The commercialization of content and events is easily achieved with the help of ready-made business models and payment integrations.
