Interactive Video Suite vs Videowise

Interactive Video Suite is a Moodle plugin for turning video lessons into activities where learners and teachers can exchange comments and responses. Learners can attach text or audio comments to specific moments. The editor adds markers, notes, zoom, pauses, and slow or fast motion; videos can also include single-choice, multiple-choice, and open questions, plus clickable hotspots. A learner’s answer can determine which sequence plays next. The suite accepts uploaded videos and sources including YouTube, Vimeo, Panopto, OpenCast, VIMP, Kaltura, and external URLs. Quiz results can pass to Moodle Gradebook, a setting that can be disabled, and Moodle backups can preserve and restore created content. The maker says data stays on the customer’s Moodle instance and that the suite meets GDPR data-protection and security criteria. It runs on web and self-hosted platforms. The free plan includes the full feature range for up to 3 course participants with unlimited use. Paid plans start at €90 per semester, excluding 19% VAT; the listed pricing note also mentions a 28-day trial.
