Hi All,

Do you want to create 3D Tours that need to be hosted for a long time such as a museum, restaurant or retail store?

Unfortunately, Matterport has not addressed this "wish list" item at all.

CUPIX has three strategies to reduce the cost of long-term hosting:

1. Beginning in Year 2, 90 percent off storage [CUPIX charges up to X per GB per model. For example, the CUPIX Medium Plan its $65 for up to 9 GB per Workspace (per model) with unlimited 3D tours.]

2. CUPIX suggests uploading 360ยบ panoramas - with JPEG compression - to reduce file sizes up 90 percent with indistinguishable viewing differences

3. Download and host the CUPIX 3D Tours yourself

Seems like Matterport should offer a Basic Lite Plan that only includes hosting: no processing. This would enable Matterport Service Providers to offer large clients the option to take-over responsibility of hosting their own models.

Your thoughts?

Best,

Dan

Long term hosting is a residual revenue stream. I want to lower my hosting cost, but my copyright to my work, don't want the clients to take-over anything, I will take care of them and service their account updating the model and meeting their visual marketing needs.

Yes. I agree with you.

... because many have posted in the WGAN Forum that either their clients - or they - prefer not to have long-term responsibility.

Well, if "THEY" would like I will take on and adopt their clients and take care of them very well for a very long time. Have them send them to me to host happily.

I really don't want Matterport to contact my clients at all! This would be a disaster for an already troubled relationship.
