World Renowned Medical eLearning Company Dr. Najeeb Lectures Doubles Revenues Using Video Hosting Platform vzaar

Dr. Najeeb Lectures reaches business milestone, doubling revenues and reaching 30,000 members during January.

London(03 May 2013)

With the world's largest Medical Sciences video library, Dr. Najeeb Lectures is a thriving multi-million dollar e-learning business offering hundreds of hours of video content on topics spanning basic medical sciences.

Dr. Najeeb Lectures make its premium medical videos available to paying subscribers on-demand - across smartphones, desktops and tablets via vzaar, the video hosting platform.

Video security has been critical to the success of Dr. Najeeb Lectures. When Dr. Najeeb first started to experiment with online video the company’s CEO Zeeshan Najeeb quickly realized that to grow a profitable e-learning business they would need premium security features to restrict access to premium video content. According to Zeeshan, "Our revenues have doubled since we decided to use vzaar as our video hosting platform."

Since partnering with vzaar, Dr. Najeeb Lectures has seen explosive subscriber growth – growing members from 5,000 to 30,000 in less than a year. "We are able to provide reliable streaming and this has played a great role in spreading word of mouth recommendations about our product. More and more people are signing up from all over the world,” Zeeshan reports.

“vzaar has seen an increasing demand for video hosting coming from the e-learning industry. Around a third of all our subscribers are in the e-learning and education fields," reports vzaar Chairman Gareth Cadwallader.

According to Jim Henry, VP of Sales at vzaar, "Dr. Najeeb's requirements are a classic example of the needs of many organizations from the e-learning sector. Security and control are big factors for companies delivering content to paying customers. Many of our clients are choosing enhanced security features such as Domain Control and RTMPe streaming to retain control of where their videos are viewed. A lot of our clients also appreciate the subtitling feature which allows them to unlock their content for an international audience."

"We need our videos to load quickly and retain their quality. Reliable streaming is a must for companies like ours with students all over the world. Previously many of our customers were experiencing problems trying to view our videos. What has improved since using vzaar is that we now have barely any complaints about video streaming issues,” Zeeshan concludes.
