Case Study: The Wharton School achieves campus-wide, high-quality, cost-effective lecture capture with Panopto

Flexible Lecture Capture with Amazing Support Why the Wharton School SwitchedtTo Panopto

The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania needed a modern, reliable lecture-capture solution but found its early hardware-based systems were inflexible, produced low-fidelity single-source recordings, required costly specialized equipment, and lacked vendor support—leaving many faculty unable to capture classes the way they wanted.

Switching to Panopto’s software-based platform let Wharton deploy PC-based recorders campus-wide, capture multiple video and screen sources, centrally schedule and monitor recordings, and integrate with Canvas/SSO. The result: higher-quality, more accessible recordings in every classroom, lower costs and maintenance overhead, stronger vendor support, and new teaching approaches such as flipped classrooms.
