Panopto has been within the University of Southampton for 4-5 years now, but it’s popularity has increased dramatically in the last 18 months or so.
6430 Hours of Panopto were viewed in November 2014
We often see spikes of views in the Panopto graphs, but they are generally just before the University exam periods. In November 2014 there was a 350% increase in total hours viewed, with the busy exam periods still a month or two away.
5,581 unique visitors in November 2014
As expected with this increase in viewing hours is an increase in users viewing the service. Panopto outputs unique viewers per week, so there may be up to four duplicates per month, but numbers have still doubled in a year.
2TB of disc usage in Semester 1 2014/15
With the increased usage, iSolution’s major problem is the disc space being used. At 2TB per semester (this year) alongside the 3.5TB we’ve kept from previous years, makes Panopto the fastest growing service in terms of disc use. Panopto currently has 8TB allocated to it (we had 4TB allocated as recently as October 2014) and at the time of writing (08/01/15) has 28% free.
