"Cincopa is perfect for organizations (such as academic institutions) that have strict, limited-feature content management systems. It allows you to create and embed attractive video and photo galleries on any type of website. I would not be able to create pages that look half as good using our local CMS by itself."

Frequently Asked Questions

Can CincoTube serve as a full enterprise video portal?

Yes. CincoTube supports enterprise-grade features such as SSO, granular access control, role-based permissions, advanced security policies, audit logs, private CDN delivery, custom branding, API access, and multi-department or multi-domain deployments. It can function as a complete internal or external video hub for training, customer education, onboarding, product enablement, and more.

Can I also use CincoTube for a small team or small website?

Yes. CincoTube can be launched instantly without IT involvement, which makes it ideal for startups, agencies, course creators, and growing SaaS companies that just need a simple branded video portal. You can begin with a small user base and expand over time without changing platforms.

Can I start small and scale to enterprise later?

Yes. CincoTube is designed to support both lightweight self-serve usage and full corporate rollout. You can start with a few users and basic branding, then add SSO, user groups, departments, analytics layers, and enterprise permissions later — without migrating to another system.

Is there a cheaper alternative to Kaltura MediaSpace?

Yes. CincoTube offers flexible pay-as-you-grow pricing with no mandatory long-term contracts or infrastructure fees, making it significantly more affordable for eLearning companies, SaaS platforms, training teams, and SMBs that don’t need a full enterprise suite.

Can I migrate my existing Kaltura videos to CincoTube?

Yes. You can import video libraries, captions, metadata, playlists, and access rules into CincoTube using built-in migration tools or assisted onboarding. Most customers complete migration in days, not months.

Does CincoTube support white-label video portals and custom domains?

Yes. CincoTube supports full white-labeling, custom domains, brand colors, layouts, CSS, and UI flexibility so the portal feels like part of your platform — not a third-party host.

Does Cincopa offer professional services for setup or custom development?

Yes. Cincopa provides optional professional services for full implementation, custom features, integrations, UI/UX work, content migration, or ongoing portal management if your team wants a fully managed deployment.

Is there a free trial or live demo available?

Yes. You can start a free trial instantly or request a live guided demo with our product team. This allows you to see real customer portals and test features before committing.

How does CincoTube handle video security and access control?

CincoTube offers token-based authentication, SSO, DRM, domain and IP restrictions, password and role-based access, secure CDN delivery, and viewer-level analytics. You control exactly who can watch, download, embed, or share content.
