- New capabilities are being added, albeit they are addons to an existing Panopto license. These include AI-generated video with Elai, company video portal with Panopto Connect and Panopto Insights. It's a great portfolio of tools to choose from and keep everything under the same platform.
- The Panopto policies to manage archived and stored hours are fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- The permissions to edit a video are still managed at folder level, meaning you need to add someone as a Creator to be able to edit one video. If the folder also contains other videos, then they get editing access to all videos in the folder not just the one you need them to edit. This creates data management issues.
- Automatic captions still need work.
- Creators cannot delete archived videos without restoring them from the archive first, which takes 48h. Therefore they need a Panopto admin to intervene, which increases admin overhead.
- The interface is still slow. When you have hundreds of folders, the 'Browse' button on the left-hand sidebar takes ages to display the hierarchy.
- Still no ability to separate audio from the primary video for more granular video editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
