Vidyard Extends Video Capabilities To Sales With New Engage Suite

Video marketing platform Vidyard has launched a new suite of tools to extend its video capabilities to sales, support, customer success and other teams beyond marketing. Vidyard Engage enables customer-facing teams to access, record and send video content directly from Gmail and Microsoft Outlook.

The solution is designed to send engagement notifications to the sender, such as what was watched, how long the video was viewed and which parts were skipped or replayed. Through this insight, companies can gain new behavioral data on which customers and prospects are engaging with their content and what topics gain their attention.

"There's huge potential for other customer facing teams such as sales, support and customer success to use video content every day to close more deals and nurture existing customers," said Michael Litt, Co-Founder and CEO of Vidyard, in an interview with Demand Gen Report. "From how we connect and educate prospects to how we build relationships with existing clients, video offers incredible potential provided it's made accessible and easy to use by these other teams."
