Makes your video creation process easier!
Great experience. Customer support was very helpful and friendly, too. The product is great anyways! Recommended! :)
PROSVery useful features like sending your script to your mobile phone (where you record the video in the app and play the text as a teleprompter), adding beautiful subtitles, even creating video landing pages... That's just very briefly what the best features are. Overall it supports you in all steps of the video creation process.
CONSI haven't found a lot of cons yet. What might be interesting to add is the possibility to change the color/font of the scripts for the teleprompter. So you are reminded if you want to speak in a special way. Moreover customization is always nice to have I'd say, but it really is a good product.
Reason for choosing BIGVU
I use both depending on the project I am dealing with!

Broken, buggy features and unhelpful support
The concept is fantastic. But it's buggy. Some of the bugs can be worked around (Web app doesn't work in Chrome, use another browser, for example.) I have no problem with the workarounds. The frustrating part is they allow you to find the bugs, wasting your time, then tell you about them. "Yes, that's a known bug" is a common response. Why not be open about it and let me know before I waste my time? Why not have a list of known bugs in the documentation? Some of the bugs can't be worked around. I'm trying to create a 15-minute walkthrough video. As the web app's broken and can't record more than 10 minutes, they want me to record two videos and stitch them together. It's a to-camera recording. Stitching it together's not going to work. The support team respond quickly, which is great. But they aren't helpful, which is frustrating. There's no sense of understanding that the software's buggy and that all I want to do is create videos. It's very much a case of "Yes, we know it's buggy, but that's your problem."
PROSThe ability to record videos with their teleprompter is great. Uploading and editing scripts is easy, as well as sending them to a mobile is dead easy. The support response is fast, and that's great as I'm in close contact with them trying to understand what's working and what isn't.
CONSEverything seems to break when trying to record videos. The say to use Chrome, but Chrome currently causes a problem with the camera connection. Does their support documentation tell you this? No. So I wasted time trying to resolve it. It's only after you have a problem they let you know it. My account has the ability to record 59 minute videos. I know because I checked with support before I recorded. Turns out it's a 10 minute limit when using the web app. But does the documentation tell you that? No. Does the web app warn you? No. It allows you to record a long video, then says, "You've exceeded the file size." Did support tell me when I asked how long I could record for? No. After realizing I couldn't upload the file, I asked support if the file is stored locally so I can edit it somewhere else... no response from support so I assume the work's lost.

Bigvu is a great tool, it has helped me create courses and content without unnecessary padding
Bigvu has definitely saved me a lot of time when creating content, and the results are more precise and of better quality.
PROSI'm constantly creating content and this telepronter has been a key tool for me.Bigvu makes my videos great. I consider it quite useful for all of us who are dedicated to creating content and info products as part of our digital business. I like its simplicity and also that the interface is very clean. And the best thing is that I can use it on the phone and on the laptop. Another point in favor of Bigvu is the support, there really is a team behind this company that does its job well. I have contacted them on several occasions and in the end they have resolved any situation I have had.They have great product documentation, and they always do webinars and videos for their YouTube channel.
CONSSomething that I did not like about the Bigvu app is that you cannot stop the recording at the exact moment and then continue. To pause, you must first load the recorded video and start recording a new video, and position yourself at the point you left off. It has a function to stop automatically on silence, but when there are gaps in the script, it stops because it doesn't hear sound.

Slash Your Video Production Time to Minutes Instead of Hours While Leveling Up Your End Product
For YEARS, I have wrestled with trying to find a product or service that would enable me to achieve the kind of results that can be expected from an expensive teleprompter setup - without the expense and lack of portability of such equipment. When I found BigVu, I felt like I did when I found my spouse. It's what I'd been looking for my whole life! (Well, at least for a LOT of years when it comes to my video creation needs).
PROSThe ease of use, ability to upload and edit scripts on the fly, switching from desktop to mobile device usage, the speed and flexibility of features, and outstanding customer support.
CONSNot being able to have folders to sort videos in the lower level tier.
Reason for choosing BIGVU
This was a happy accident. I didn't really know how awesome BigVu was until I got it and started playing with it. But after the fact, the value is HANDS DOWN huge compared to all other options.
