Committee Selects YuJa’s Video Platform and Conferencing Solutions

In the summer of 2020, Oakland University (OU) was seeking a replacement for its video conferencing platform that also had lecture capture capabilities. Led by Dan Arnold, Ph.D., OU’s Manager of Support Services, e-Learning and Instructional Support, a selection committee of about a dozen users from various departments watched demonstrations and scored finalists.

“YuJa got on our radar as part of the procurement process. A lot of vendors came in with use cases strictly on video conferencing that could be used in a way for lecture capture, but not distinct tools for video conferencing as well as lecture capture,” Arnold recalled. “We wanted a tool that could do both and we were pleasantly surprised when YuJa submitted a response to our RFP.” YuJa’s robust lecture capture and video conferencing capabilities made it the top choice for the selection committee.
