Evergreen is now using Panopto – and other technology updates
Evergreen is now using Panopto – A Video Cloud Hosting Platform that is now connected to all Zoom cloud recordings. Here’s what you need to know:
- C&C and Media Services are working towards making Panopto our default video cloud storage platform.
- As of Dec. 17th, 2021, all Zoom cloud recordings are automatically copying over to Panopto.
- All faculty planning to use Zoom cloud recordings should activate Panopto in their Winter Canvas courses (preferably before their first class recording). See: How to add Panopto to your course navigation
- This January we will be migrating all Zoom cloud video data storage over to Panopto.
- Panopto trainings for staff and faculty are in the works – stay tuned! Until then, check out our Panopto Helpwiki Guide.
