Version 3.0 is released – and we are out of Beta!
September 9th, 2009 by Anita Filed Under Faculte
The day we’ve been waiting for and working towards the past few months is finally here. Yesterday, we released version 3.0, and with that we’re out of Beta! This is very exiting!
With the new release we have a whole new set of features designed for business needs – the Premium Features. We now have a pricing plan, and those who choose to sign up for or upgrade to one of our paid Premium Accounts can now brand their playback pages and widgets, track their viewers’ email address, secure their broadcasts by using our contact list, and last but not least, have accounts with multiple producers where you can collaborate on both assets and broadcasts!
We are very excited and proud to make this big step and offer what we know businesses have been craving for a long time. And this is just the beginning, we’re not ready to lean back yet! We still have a lot in the works to make Faculte the best online multimedia communications platform designed for business needs.
Let’s dive right in and get you acquainted with our new Premium Features:
Branded Templates
When you have a Premium Account, you can brand the page that opens when your viewer clicks the shared link. You can also brand the player or widget that you embed on your website or blog. Add your own logo, change the background color, add a header image, footer text and links to your web pages. Now you can make the experience a complete match to your brand!

Advanced Tracking
With a Premium Account we take tracking views of your broadcasts one step further. In addition to tracking number of views, sort them by date, source and organization, you have access to your viewer’s email address directly from the stats. That means you know exactly when a certain person has viewed your broadcast. This is perfect for following up on a prospect, ensuring that an employee has viewed your training material or knowing that a new lead has just registered to view your content.
Advanced security and contact list
Our contact list is very practical for sharing a broadcast – you can choose from a pre-made list instead of writing the email address every time you wish to share a broadcast. You can also group your contacts, so if you want to share a broadcast with let’s say your marketing department, you can select the “marketing department” list, without having to remember everybody’s name and email address.
The best part of this Premium Feature is: You can restrict access to one, several or all contacts! This means that only the viewer with that particular email address can watch your broadcast, and prevents your link to be shared with anyone else. So you can use Faculte for sensitive content without being worried that someone will forward your email.

Collaboration
You can now have a Premium Account with multiple producers. This means you can create a broadcast with powerpoint slides, I can do the narration over the slides, our sales manager can add a personal webcam recording and our marketing manager can create the branded player for the broadcast – without having to download anything, without having to fight over the same username and password, and in our own preferred place and time. I can give you access to all the files I have that you need and allow you to duplicate or edit my broadcasts – and vice versa.
If you have any questions regarding our Premium Features or Pricing Plans, please use the contact form in the bottom of our web pages!
On behalf of the whole Faculte Team, I thank our existing customers for their support and enthusiasm and welcome both the old and new customers to try out our new Premium Accounts. And if you have a special business need or ideas for great new features, let us know!
