Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Jared and I am the Executive Director of Kinyua Marketing Agency. And it is a two to 10 employee company. And Kapwing, from one to five, is a five for me. Kapwing is a new company to me because the current companies I was using was InShot, Descript and I was also using Midjourney. However, the refreshing and the lagging and the updates constantly instead of having a smooth operating system was kind of why I had to switch because it wasn't letting me do what I needed to do with the videos I was editing. Kapwing is just a seamless solution to me because dealing with a lot of web-based apps, I noticed there's either a technology delay or there's a system delay. And with Kapwing, I didn't experience either one, so I was able to really implement. The strategy I was trying to do was just extract music from a video and it was really seamless in splitting up the MP3 and the other file types. It was very quick, less than five minutes to really get set up, and it was nearly identical to most of the other software I'm used to using for video and photography and music editing. So it was almost just night and day difference. Second nature, if you want to call it that. And to me, I've been able to expand on not just using it, but implementing it with AI and a couple other softwares I already have. The best advice I would suggest for anybody looking at Kapwing, if you haven't got your feet wet with AI to text or video editing or even video AI or any of those softwares out there, you can definitely try those first. Kapwing is more for the advanced user that needs to do a couple video edits, adding scenes, create B roll, create more complex workflows for their videos. So it's not an entry level product, but it is a seamless solution for anybody from a beginner mode to an expert.

Pete S.: Hello, I am Peter. I am the owner of Two Paths Investment Partners. We are a family owned real estate business, operating multifamily properties in different states and I use Microsoft 365 and I would rate that a five in terms of my review. Before Microsoft's 365, I was just using some various ancillary products that weren't tied together. I couldn't cut and paste easily. I couldn't really produce professional type documents and when Microsoft 365 was available, not only I was able to connect on the internet and all my devices, but level of my work increased, the professional work. So it's indispensable at this point. I use 365 because it's really the gold standard on the market and it's one that when I make presentations or produce documents for other investors or partners or vendors or anyone like that, they really prefer to have it in that type of format. They can use that. It's easy to share, easy for them to read. So it's really a must have product. Yeah, it was really intuitive. It was really a sort of simple, intuitive process from the start. Getting on and learning and then having the online learning when I needed to find out how to do something, complete a task, improve my documents, it was easy to access through the 365 help Windows or on the internet as needed. So it's been really terrific without needing all kinds of third party IT support. You really can use it for my business. Being a small business, it's, again, fairly indispensable. Yeah, I would recommend 365 for anyone looking to take their business really to a professional level, as well as being able to utilize technology to lower their own costs. It really is sort of a partner in your business. So if you're doing certain tasks or using technology, you can use 365 really to kind of scale your business and grow with you. So it's really applicable for anyone in business or even in your personal life to use technology and able to free your time to do other things and complete tasks.
