PuMuKIT vs UbiCast Nudgis

PuMuKIT is a free, open-source video platform for organizations with large collections of video or audio. It can run a complete media site on an organization's own infrastructure, with a customizable portal for browsing by series and category. Portal widgets can surface related, most-viewed, and recently added videos. Publisher tools include drag-and-drop cataloguing, autocomplete, interactive forms, and UNESCO science and technology tags. An Opencast module supports presenting and cataloguing Opencast videos in the portal. The site describes distribution to services such as YouTube and iTunes U and learning systems including Moodle and Open edX. Organizations can provide live event channels and keep recordings available on demand. Playback supports HTML5 and Flash, with the portal described as usable in desktop browsers and on Android, iPhone, and iPad. The downloads page lists PuMuKIT 4.2.4 as the latest stable release and recommends it for production. Version 4.x is based on Symfony 5 and MongoDB. Community support is offered through mailing lists in English and Spanish. Older 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x versions are not community-supported.
