Introduction of ENTERPRISE Lite plan

Throughout 2018 we’ve received a lot of feedback on the missed alignment of value provided, features contained and consumption rates of the standard plan. Main concern being that a lot of folks were taking advantage of the Hybrid-hosting option, not consuming much, if any, storage and bandwidth and simply wanted to leverage the ENTERPRISE features.  To help with that concern, we ran an extended promotion featuring a new subscription price point at $27/mo or $297/yr. This plan offers all the same features which standard ENTERPRISE does, only with lower storage and bandwidth consumption limits. 

Newly introduced BETA features

As mentioned we’ve had a lot of feedback and feature requests, some which really made sense to us, so we added them as new BETA features to gather further feedback from you. Here’s a short breakdown…

Hide Play / Replay Button
If you find that play and or replay buttons are not working optimally for your video, for example if you are handling play in a different way and they are getting in the way, you now have options to hide them completely, or better yet…

Play Button Position

You may now move the play button out of the way by positioning it in the top left corner. More positions coming soon, based on feedback of course.

Skip / Rewind Shortcuts

Previously available controls to skip and rewind video content by 10s have now been enhanced so that now you may specify the time interval as well as access those controls with left and right arrows on the keyboard.

Player Translations

We also got a lot of feedback on how important it is to give you the ability to translate some parts of vooPlayer. This is why we are starting to roll out a feature which will allow you to fully customize certain text strings and adapt them to your needs / language.
