Kaltura MediaSpace™

Create your own Campus or Corporate YouTube™, with Kaltura MediaSpace - an out-of-the-box video portal.

What is MediaSpace?

Kaltura’s MediaSpace application allows you to instantly launch a video-centric website where users can search, browse, watch, share and upload videos and video presentations, with full user management, and moderation options. To see it in action visit our demo site.

What are some typical use cases?

Create a Campus or a Corporate YouTube™. Easily publish high-quality video content with minimal setup, or empower a user community to upload and manage media independently.

For example:

• Enterprises use MediaSpace as an internal video portal for employee training, collaboration, executive messaging, or a public facing video product catalog.
• Media companies use MediaSpace as a video portal for browsing ad-supported video catalogs, or creating a PPV experience, for launching movies, as well as for supporting citizen journalism.
• Universities use MediaSpace as a “Campus YouTube™" for publishing lecture content, or for student uploads, and athletic club content.
