Celebrate important milestones and events with everyone by streaming townhalls, anniversaries, and important meetings live on your App or Intranet. Unlike on-demand streaming, live streaming broadcasts videos in real-time. This allows you to share important information with your employees and respond directly and interactively to feedback and questions.
Regular live streams strengthen your company culture and help employees identify with your organization - whether they’re in the office, working remotely, or on the move.
Additionally, regular live streams:
- Foster open exchange and communication between executives and employees
- Boost employee engagement thanks to face-to-face interaction
- Reduce the number of tools and platforms employees need to navigate back and forth between
- Unlimited number of participants and lower costs than on-site events
By embedding video streams directly in your App or Intranet, you ensure that important information is directed exclusively to your employees. Staffbase supports the embedding of videos and live streams from the most popular platforms such as:
- Youtube
- Vimeo
- DaCast
Depending on your specific use case, there are different ways to integrate live streams and videos on your platform:
- Plugin for Embedded Pages
- Widget for Embedded Pages
- Contact Staffbase Support or your Customer Success Manager for individual embedding options.
