Echo360 Reviews & Product Details

I tried out a few tools and liked the intuitive features of this platform best. Since this was a secondary product or benefit within my business I know my customers grow weary of one more thing that requires login. However, with GoReact the value is there. From the moment the get into the platform they see immediate benefits and easy-to-navigate options.

As an instructor I also like the interface for creating markers, using text or audio feedback and providing instructions.

Lastly, the mobile version was great. Without downloading another app my clients could login from a mobile browser and still enjoy easy video uploads and watching. Remember, not all students have the same access to personal computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost has made it difficult to scale. I want a pricing option for limited features that would allow me to trial (limited time free use) the product so that I can give them hands on experience before they buy. Unfortunately, this would require video demos only while the price per student is so high.

Remember though, high is in comparison to far inferior competitors so I will still pay it just need to price my customers accordingly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What first attracted me to the software was the ability to have both my students and myself leave evaluations for each other's work. Once I started using the software I realize that I could also leave recorded feedback (an incredible time saver) and also be integrated into the university's grading system.

When I first started using the software, I was a bit confused about how the grades would interface with the university's gradebook. I was able to figure it out, but some clarification on where and how are the grades need to be inputted would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GoReact was invented by my mentor and his intention was to provide students feedback directly connected to what they were saying or doing when they said it. This is a great concept. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After all these years, I'm sad to see what GoReact has become. I use it embedded in Canvas, and it's pretty unusable with rubrics. My students can't see the rubrics in advance and the window is so small, I can barely see it myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the feature that allows you to watch in real time while also adding comments and/or tags as well. I also like that it is very customizable and that you can set assignments to be viewed peer to peer (students) or private for the instructor to view only. There are a lot of other features as well but it is really great because it allows us to provide observation access to students who live in very remote communities.

Sometimes it can be difficult when students want to use bluetooth mics or things like that which they donʻt often know how to trouble shoot. Although we spend a great deal of time practicing and walking the students through this platform, there have been instances where things would come up in the moment that we did not know how to solve or we had to address after the observation and use a different video tool. But with any online tool, it is always good to have a backup in general. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked how Go React has easily laid out features and folders. It was straightforward to know what I was assigned, and the organization was helpful. The best part was how videos integrate so well into the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest problem that I have had was when I was uploading my final project, there was some issue with the software, and it would not upload. I had to keep it open on my computer for around 2 hours, which was stressful during finals. I think this was an isolated incident, though, due to some issues with the technology that day.

I like the platform's live-recording feature to be able to observe my teacher candidates in real time. I do not use the comment and reaction features, although they are nice to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GoReact requires a level of speed for recording/uploading that is not supported by some of the areas where our schools are located. I'm not sure that this is an issue that could be remedied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is extremely easy for both students and teachers to navigate. I love being able to provide time-stamped feedback that can be reviewed by students prior to post-conferences and also lets them review the feedback as they need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. This is my favorite and most valuable teaching tool for working with student teachers and for instructional coaching. I do wish the license did not have to be renewed each year and contracts could be done in multiple-year increments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I have options in GoReact when I begin to comment on videos. I use tags to cite the specific actions I see. Then as I'm adding my own comments I can choose to pause the video while I'm typing or let it keep running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You need to be careful when uploading videos that they are captured in the smallest size video file. Even then, it could take awhile to upload. But stick with it! Eventually the file uploads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
