Video Streaming Service ComparisonThere’s never been a time like today to be an internet entrepreneur.  With advances in technology, you can take your business from your living room to the boardroom in a flash.  The development in inexpensive handheld video recorders, smart phones and video cameras, make it easy for you to shoot high quality digital video to pitch your services and highlight your products.  Combined with video editing and production software, you will have a powerful presentation that can help you increase your client roster and expand your business and professional profile.

Computer and internet technology have also developed to the point where powerful PCs or Macs are available at a lower price than ever.  The mass production of these machines with high speed processors and a large amount of memory continue to drive retail prices further down.  With the advent of commonplace high speed internet at a price a startup can afford, the sky is the limit.

TikiLIVE is a leader in the high definition video content delivery market.  We provide a robust and stable infrastructure that provides a streaming solution for your company across multiple platforms.  Your target audience will have no viewing issues when they access your video content.  We are committed to enabling a quality viewing experience regardless if it is a mobile device (smart phone or tablet), PC, Mac, or a Set-Top Box such as a Roku.  Additionally, we provide you with the ability to monetize your content.  Should you wish to offer training online or hold seminars in your subject area, you will find TikiLIVE is an excellent solution that gives you flexibility and control over your paid video content.

While online video streaming providers such as Blinko TV, Justin.TV, Ustream.tv, Brightcove, LiveCast, Livestream, and Veetle provide you with some of the aforementioned options, TikiLIVE is the provider with all these options at an extremely affordable price.  We also believe in customizing your user and streaming experiences so you can maximize your growth potential. TikiLIVE gives you the power to be anywhere your customers are.

The Advantages of TikiLIVE

It’s important for your online growth strategy that you are on as many different platforms as humanly possible.  By doing this, your chance of reaching more people grows exponentially.  The greater the accessibility of your content, the greater the chance of reaching untapped markets and demographics.  Your audience can grow with you and support changes in direction and vision.  TikiLIVE ensures that you are on as many platforms as possible.

1.    Macs and PCs – This platform is the building block of your video content delivery.  TikiLIVE recognizes that businesses increasingly use Macs as well as Windows OS personal computers.  Particularly with businesses who are content creators themselves. We have made sure that your content does not encounter any issues regardless of your audience’s preferences in laptops and/or desktops.

2.    Set-Top Boxes – This is a very exciting new and developing platform that TikiLIVE is proud to be able to support.  Set-Top Boxes like Roku allow the consumer to connect to their television or a larger screen and, by virtue of an internet connection, stream internet content.  With TikiLIVE, you will have a broadcast channel that Set-Top Box users can access.  Additionally, should you need to conduct a meeting at a remote location, if that location supports Roku, you will not even need to bring your presentation, it will be right there waiting for you.

3.    Mobile Devices – We have discussed some more fixed location options, but today’s consumers and business professionals are always on the go.  They rarely have time to stay in one location.  It is vitally important for you to connect to your mobile audience.  If you can get their attention with your content even while they are at a coffee shop on their phone or iPad, you have an edge on your competition.

Also, some of your potential customers may invest more money in their mobile devices than any other kind of computing or home streaming platform.  Statistics are predicting that next year, there will be more smart phones than people on the entire planet.  That’s a lot of potential customers for your content to reach on platforms like the following:

o    Smart Phones – Whether your audience likes their iPhone or uses an Android device, you can relax knowing that TikiLIVE makes sure your content seamlessly streams to either.  Our Monster Encoder module can process your video file and format it to work with HTML5, which allows iOS or Android users to view your content.

o    Tablets – Once again, your customers can use their preferred device to stream your video, whether it is an iOS or Android OS system because TikiLIVE takes care of any streaming issues.  And if you use an iPad, you will even be able to stream your content from it onto a larger screen with an Apple TV box.

Video Streaming Wins

We have talked about how TikiLIVE can provide you with the best streaming video service available, but you may be asking yourself why you even need our services.  Here are a few ways you will be able to benefit from streaming video content.

1.    Reduction in Expenses – By streaming your content online you will be able to start saving money that you have previously allocated for training.  Think of the amount of money you have spent on training a sales force to be knowledgeable about your services and products.  Think about how much it costs to pay them and give them benefits. Then you have to pay their travel expenses including hotel lodging, gas, meals, car rental, etc.  Having your content online will allow one presentation to do all the work of your sales force.  Your one presentation will reach thousands of people without anyone having to leave your office.

2.    Training – Having corporate training content online allows you to reduce human resource expenses.  Your employees will be apprised of all company policies simply by reviewing the streaming content.  Continuing education for your personnel can also be done via live online streaming.

3.    Networking – By providing a central location where viewers can see content and interact, you will be fostering connections that you can build into business relationships.  Creating a virtual connection between your employees and your customers also reinforces the business relationship.
