Cincopa Brings Quick, Easy Gallery Options to Any Platform
Pros
- Set-Up: Setting up the galleries is mostly a drag-and-drop process that makes it easy for laymen (or interns) to easily format and put together, without a lot of coding knowledge or experience.
- Integration: With multiple options for integration, Cincopa allows you to control how the calls are made. Since it is a script-based import with its own container, it actually makes it easy to drop into nearly any webpage with little to no additional fussing.
- Options: Cincopa offers a great deal of gallery templates that can be used for images, videos, playlists, etc. The templates offer unique presentations and functions, and each template gives you additional control over the appearance of each gallery.
Cons
- In my experience, the drag-and-drop functionality when re-ordering a gallery has a tendency to break. This is either a complicated lock-up (something to do with the visualization) or being treated as text and only highlighting instead of moving.
- Many of the tool tips (?) don't explain the option well, often just repeating the available option. This isn't a major factor as some of the option effects can be figured out through trial and error, but it was something that I noticed during my first set-up.
Return on Investment
- For the client, Cincopa offered a great way to add attractive mixed-media galleries that fit into a blog post. It also is easy enough for unskilled (or at least not highly skilled in JS, CSS, or HTML)
- For my agency, it offered us a quick solution that integrated well into a website without additional coding or fussing. Cincopa allowed us to develop the site on a platform that didn't offer native galleries in the content sections. This saved plenty of time for the development team and reduced the cost of the overhead for the project management team.

Cincopa Video Hosting
Pros
- Customization: you can choose from a variety of player templates and change a lot of backend things like automatic playing, sizing, colors, etc.

- The customer service team is really responsive and contacts you as soon as you sign up to find out what your business goals are and how they can help.
Cons
- I can't think of any areas of improvement that I would recommend.
- I think the service is easy to use.
- I haven't had any issues with video hosting so far!
Return on Investment

- Our video will give residents and prospects a positive image of our community.
