# **What is Video Testimonials in Reputation Management?**

Educational description:Video Testimonials is a Reputation feature that allows you to collect customer video reviews using shareable, branded “**Video** **Collectors**.” Contacts can record or upload a video from desktop or mobile (no app required). Collected videos can then be reviewed internally and showcased on your site using the Review Widget.

-   **Flexible distribution:** Share direct links or send via Email, SMS, or WhatsApp from GHL Customer Care.
-   **Centralized management:** View and download all submissions in the Responses tab.
-   **Easy showcasing:** Add videos to your existing Review Widget, with layout options and per‑collector filtering.
