The Problem

Lag, latency, and lack of interactivity during webinars

With growth, Hubilo ran into reliability and quality issues with their previous real-time video provider. Hubilo faced constant streaming issues like lag and latency and they were unable to provide full, real-time interactivity between the speaker and the audience.

Additionally, the previous video streaming vendor’s lack of extensibility forced Hubilo to slog through labor-intensive integrations for various features for video quality enhancement, noise suppression, and transcription. Using multiple integrations and applications made it difficult to monitor and moderate live webinar sessions, which resulted in increased customer complaints.

Hubilo needed a reliable webinar streaming solution that offered ultra-low latency streaming for interactivity and a full suite of features and extensions. They started to look for a new provider for real-time engagement.

Issues with previous RTC provider:

Delayed and unreliable live-streaming

Poor video and audio quality

Dependency on multiple integrations

The Solution

Higher quality interactive webinars with better engagement

Hubilo decided to switch from their previous, unreliable vendor and implement Agora to power their webinar platform. Counting on the suite of features like low-latency live streaming, AI-powered noise suppression, and real-time transcription enable Hubilo to offer a webinar platform with high-quality video and global reliability.

Going beyond what’s typically offered in standard webinars, Hubilo wanted to add the excitement and thrill of a live event with an array of real-time engagement features like gamification, contests, polls, survey and Q&A sessions. They added breakout rooms, 1:1 chats and meetings, and virtual sponsor booths to encourage audience engagement and drive attendees to desired areas or pages on top of Agora’s infrastructure.
