    Streamline video processing with seamless integration and high-quality encoding

    Reviewed on Nov 15, 2024
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    The primary use case of Mux  is as a middleman to process video. They handle the encoding, storage, and serving of videos. We use their built-in video player which includes analytics. We are currently using the platform to integrate it with our product.

    What is most valuable?

    The most valuable features of Mux  include the ease of integration and the high-quality video encoding. Using Mux saves a lot of development time. If we were to build our own encoding and all of this, it would have taken probably a year from our development. Mux reduced this by a lot.

    What needs improvement?

    The documentation could be improved, specifically keeping it updated to match what the product is now. Currently, there is a lack of information about customizing the video player.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    We have been using Mux for the last year, around February until now.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Mux is very stable, and we have never experienced any downtime. The app responds in good time and is pretty fast.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Mux handles a lot of the heavy lifting such as storage and serving. However, the main concern is the pricing once we reach a large number of users, which at that point might not be a viable option.

    How are customer service and support?

    There has been no need to communicate with technical support for Mux so far.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    Initially, we were using a basic setup with impact encoding but found it difficult to meet requirements. We explored solutions from AWS  and GCP but found them complicated and time-consuming to implement. We eventually chose Mux because it provided a simpler installation process.

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial setup process was rated a seven out of ten since of some challenges with documentation during updates. Overall, it was not too difficult.

    What about the implementation team?

    The deployment was done in-house by a small team of four. No third-party assistance was used.

    What was our ROI?

    By using Mux, we have saved a lot of development time, which is very valuable.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Currently, we are using the development tier, which is free. It has limitations such as only being able to use ten-second videos, but it is sufficient for our current needs.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    We explored solutions from AWS , GCP, and other third parties before choosing Mux.

    What other advice do I have?

    I would rate Mux a nine out of ten. I recommend new users to install it and get started as it has a lot of community support that makes it easy to resolve any issues. I would definitely recommend Mux to others.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    On-premises

    Create robust APIs with helpful context package but needs to be faster

    Reviewed on Oct 23, 2024
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    I use Mux  for creating backend APIs. I work with Golang and use the Genesys  framework and GorillaMux for API creation.

    What is most valuable?

    In Mux , there is a context package that helps delay responses for third-party integrations. Using different features, we create robust APIs with GorillaMux.

    What needs improvement?

    There isn't anything specific that could be better. 

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I've been using Mux for 2.8 years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I initially used Mux and then switched to the GIN framework since it is faster. However, during my use of Mux, stability wasn't a significant issue.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I initially used Jumex Mux and then switched to the GIN framework which I find faster.

    How was the initial setup?

    GorillaMux syntax is very easy and not complex. If you're new to Golang or GorillaMux, you can start creating APIs within a month.

    What other advice do I have?

    Mux is better when using the GOM function or inbuilt object-relational mapping. It should be better than the GIN framework.

    I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

    The best video platform I've used, feels tailored for developers

    Reviewed on May 19, 2023
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    After working with several other video platforms, moving to Mux felt great. Mux provided the best documentation, ease of implementation, value for money, and performance in delivery and rendering.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Haven't found anything that I dislike about mux.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Uploading and rendering ~1K new videos daily, storing 300K videos, and serving content to ~5000 users daily. Mux made writing the end-to-end solution simple and more cost-effective than any I've checked.
