## video sdk Reviews
  ### 1. The tool I use to integrate videos on my website

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Adrián A. | Funcionario de carrera en Dpto Informática Tributaria en Agencia Tributaria, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 15, 2023

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

This tool is very useful as it allows me to integrate videos into my website and is very easy to use. It offers many possibilities, I recommend it to all my acquaintances.

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

One of the aspects I like the least is that starting to use it is very easy, but things get complicated as you get to know the application more, and there comes a point where you don't know how to continue.

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The main problem it solves is that it allows me to add videos to my website in a simple and well-integrated way. That way, I benefit, as it was something that used to be very complex for me and now I do it quite easily.

  ### 2. Easy-to-use, great support options

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan S. | CEO and Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2023

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

They offer a plug-and-play solution that is also highly customizable. We explored many solutions and found videoSDK to be the best option for our needs. I am thrilled.

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

Nothing so far. Their team has been very responsive to the issues we have encountered, and has provided helpful advice to enable us to move forward in the development process.

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I run a tutoring company, and we need to create unique video rooms that tutors and students can use to meet. Previously, I was spending $120+ per month (plus usage fees) on a few different tools to make this happen, but now I am only paying for the time that I use, which has led to substantial savings. It is also far more customizable - for example, we have set up the workflow to automatically redirect to a session notes form when tutors end their call, which previously required several steps.

  ### 3. Service and customer support

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Botarga V. | Ingeniero de software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2023

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

Lot of platform supports and a very quick and faboulous tech support

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

Doc page is very well but still could be improved with examples

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Increase our systems usability and entertainment options

  ### 4. Great integration for live video calls, audio calls and messages service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yash W. | RPA Intern, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 02, 2022

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

Video SDK has many premium features like high-quality video calling, group conference calls, and chat services at a very low cost, making it affordable for me to use. Its free tier itself supports everything but even its premium version is cheaper compared to other service providers and it provides high-quality services. Also, they have a good support team. I got a lot of help from their support team in connecting the services with my applications.

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

There is one thing I would like them to improve the interaction with the screen from the user's perspective. Also, it would be great to see features like video screen minimized to a small size and can run over other apps.

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helped in building a proper interaction with the user through their services. Since all these services are linked, looking for a specific user is easy. It has helped in increasing interaction with the clients and getting to know their problems easily with their low-cost options and high-quality services and support.

  ### 5. Fairly Easy, Cheaper to integrate cloud communication platform

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mukesh C. | Senior Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 09, 2021

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

As a small startup we wanted a product which can help easily launch chat, video and voice communication in our app and videosdk was just the right product. 
Pros:
 - prebuilt sdk, through which you can easily plugin in plug out video, voice and chat with barely 5-10 lines of code
- a lot of open source examples from them which you can easily reuse and customise the way you want
- They have pretty decent customer support

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

Nothing major, apart from one thing I felt can be improved. I couldn't add multiple users into the dashboard from my team. So, it is a single user dashboard, which I think will be better if multiple users are supported

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Adding Chat, voice and video communication channels into our application.
Their pricing model is better compared to other services and it is very easy and quick to integrate product.

  ### 6. Ready to use video/voice/chat sdk

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2022

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

I was able to bring my first meeting room up even without the help from the support (less than 10 minutes). The ready-to-use examples were good enough to understand the logic and made it work with my own website. The tested connection with mic and video worked very well. The on-demand record function is a big addon for these meeting features.

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

I still can't find any method to identify each admitted participant and manage them individually. I think this also needs to be done externally.

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The video sdk has excellent flexibility and potential, and I can create my meeting room with minutes and embed it into my website.

  ### 7. Easy to use and reliable

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sean T. | Owner / Lead Photographer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2021

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

VideoSDK has a super simple setup, their documentation is great, it's reliable and the best part, they have a great support staff that responds to questions quickly. I would have no hesitation in recommending VideoSDK to anyone looking to add live video to their website, they have everything you need at a really good price.

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

There really isn't a lot. A GUI for set up option may be a nice to have feature but I don't feel that it's a deal breaker.

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This flexible communications platform has helped bring local businesses together for our group. I'm looking to use this for other applications.

  ### 8. Must recommend if you want to retain your clients by increasing engagement

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ridham A. | Business Analyst, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2021

**What do you like best about video sdk?**

I am not a technical person but require a video chat function for my emerging startup for better audience engagement. We researched a lot about various video calling api and sdk, but this one was super-easy. The quality they provide in a video call is as good as google meet, and although 100% white-labeled calls, on my website

**What do you dislike about video sdk?**

They are still emerging. I appreciate if they come up with additional features like pin-screen, prebuilt UI support in native android & iOS, etc.

**What problems is video sdk solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The major problem was to retain clients on the platform. Gamification helps a little, but human interaction is more powerful than anything else. Hence we wanted an audio-video communication channel on the platform,but building such was a headache. Video sdk has solved this problem. It took 30 mins for my developer to embed video & audio chat on website.
