Flipgrid vs. Mux Video

I'd greatly recommend it to any teacher. It can be used in a variety of scenarios but mainly for speaking activities. It can work for example as an oral exam or oral evaluation, this I make them hiding it from other students' views. I also use it to analyze and comment about videos and readings. When students start talking and liking it, it's a killer. They start asking when is the next forum going to happen. However, something I do not recommend it for is role plays or collective readings, which I have tried and it fails miserably. This is because of timing, students upload the video at different moments and it is a hot mess. However, I am fine with the first part because it works pretty well.

Mux is well suited for nearly every customer when it comes to out of the box video delivery and management. The APIs are well documented, maintained, and patched in the event they are prone to issues. The only minor drawback with Mux is the delay in response time if you have an immediate issue on hand

Flipgrid is unique in its ability to allow students to create and share their own videos. I’m sure there are other ways to do this, but this is the first program that I’ve seen with these features. Students aren’t necessarily used to sharing academic videos of themselves, so it’s good practice!
