Compare Vimeo with other popular tools in the same category.
I manage all our recorded videos and staying it confidential.
Nothing so far. It works well with my job.
Everyone can watch as per their preferences.
I love the functionality. Clients and add notes into the spot they would like changed.
It can take a bit to upload to. Also, the email it sends isn't customizable. It would be nice to send a branded message.
IT makes it easy to communicate video projects as well as hosting our own videos for sharing to other platforms.
Vimeo gets so many things right! The Developer API is very well-designed and documented. The live streaming service works very well and is loaded with interactive features for capturing live data from your viewers in real time. Live streaming services include a license for Livestream Studio, which works smoothly with NDI cameras. The customer support is also top-notch.
The price point for non-profits is not bad, but it could be better. I wish that there was more than one license for Livestream Studio included in the live stream service.
Our church desperately needed a better streaming platform when we found Vimeo. Vimeo definitely delivered excellent service at a competitive price. Our old streaming service was dropping our live stream feed during the pandemic, but Vimeo never had an issue handling the bandwidth. Our old streaming software kept having problems keeping our video and audio in sync, but Livestream Studio has handled everything like a champ!
Vimeo gives you great video tools allowing you to control who can download a video, gives great tools for a client to leave feedback on a video and has good tools to customize the way your video page appears to clients.
I can make folders to host multiple videos for a given client/project, but I wish I could have nested folders to better organize the video files so my clients could more easily navigate the videos.
Vimeo makes it really easy to send my clients video drafts to review and send final videos for downloading so they can host it on their own channels. I have plenty of storage space and can customize the look of my landing pages to be more professional.
Vimeo caters to filmmakers with features to protect and showcase your work. It offers an array of privacy and security options, storage, monitizing and networking and is easily accessible and sharable within the film industry. I also appreciate collaboration features such as sharing and integration with adobe.
It seems Vimeo is branching out adding new features which will take it away from its original purpose. I would also appreciate more training videos and direct customer support.
Hosting videos for submitting to film festivals and sharing with collaborators
Es de los mas utilizados, no tiene tantas limitaciones en cuanto al tiempo de grabación. Es fácil para nuestros usuarios ingresar y ver los videos pregrabados sobre información de nuestro aplicativo
Suele ser un poco pesado para cargar las grabaciones y en ocasiones genera errores en algunas grabaciones por lo que se pierde esa información y se debe volver a grabar el material
El alacenamiento de videos nos permite tener galeria de ayudas para casos específicos que manejamos en el día a día con nuestros usuarios. De esa forma tiene acceso a nuestra información de soporte.
Great for video making and stock videos!
Not a lot of freedom with tools. It could have animation features
Great tool to create videos with ease
What I love most about Vimeo is the high-quality video streaming and the overall user experience. The platform is so easy to use, and it's great to have control over the privacy settings for my videos. The ability to customize the video player and embed it on my website has also been very useful. Additionally, I appreciate how Vimeo supports a community of creators and provides resources for learning and improving my video production skills. Overall, Vimeo has been a great platform for showcasing my work and connecting with others who share my passion for video production.
While I do appreciate the quality and user experience of Vimeo, there are a few things that I dislike about the platform. One of the biggest issues for me is the cost of the subscription plans, which can be quite expensive compared to other video hosting services. Another thing that bothers me is the limited analytics available on the basic plan. I would like to have more detailed data on my video's performance without having to upgrade to a higher tier. However, despite these drawbacks, I still find Vimeo to be a valuable tool for my video production needs.
Vimeo works for me as a portfolio page, where I can showcase various works and present them to my clients. It is an essential platform for any professional in the field.
I have been a client of Livestream/Vimeo since 2008. After 100's live streams the service has not failed me once. Even when New York was hit by the hurricane and massive power failures in the city they were able to get the backup system up and running in time for an important conference for all Hyundai Canada dealers. Most of my live streams have 50 to 2000 viewers. But in 2015 I live streamed a Conference for UCC with Edward Snowden from Russia and Glenn Greenwald in Brazil. I won't go into the logistics here on how we accomplished that due to the fact that we couldn't have a traceable stream to reveal Snowden's exact location. What we didn't know was how many viewers we might get. Without a glitch Livestream scaled to over 15,000 viewers that evening. My point is there is a lot of free streaming with Facebook, Youtube etc. which have no guarantee it will work. Clients that request those services I still use Vimeo to feed them and know it will work. Studio 6, best streaming software ever created (I bought a copy) but I miss Producer, the majority of streams are simple and that was ideal to run on all systems.
Cloud services we don't use and have no use for online editing. Really haven't explored Vimeo fully to comment but I do know their live streaming services are rock solid.
Like that they are continuing to update and support Studio 6.
There are a lot of great tools, but I really like the way I can change a video and keep the embedded link the same. I also like the collaboration features. It is nice to be able to review videos without having to download and make notes.
If you do not have a strong internet connection, Vimeo will not work properly. I have found that a wired connection is best since wifi can drop and won't be as consistent.
The main problem that we are using Vimeo to solve is to be able to organize video content, collaborate with a team, and share high-quality videos. We also use this to host videos that we embed on other sites.
Vimeo is a great platform for saving and sharing videos. Love it.
I can't think of anything that I dislike about vimeo.
It's a great place to keep all my work videos of the wedding ceremonies that I record.
Vimeo is simple to use and easily accessible by all my clients. We use it in our video production process with clients to receive feedback, distribute and livestream events.
The one thing I've run into with Vimeo is the upload limit. Our team shoots a lot of events which generate large amounts of deliverables. When delivery time is sensitive that upload limit can be frustrating for small clients who cannot afford to upgrade to a higher tier.
Vimeo has solved the distribution problem for me. It is really easy to deliver videos. Additionally, the no advertisements are extremely attractive to companies interested in keeping their brand clean.
I love the ease of creating live events as well as the options for distribution not only to popular social media channels, but also RTMP options.
I don't like the most recent navigation to edit a video. It takes more steps than necessary to get into the distribution section for a video from the home page. I have to go into advanced settings to do a lot of backend editing.
Vimeo has helped us be able to stream easily to multiple platforms.
Vimeo provides flexibility for our variety of needs in a user-friendly platform.
Periodic platform changes (such as new labeling) sometimes come as a surprise. Fortunately, they are usually easy to sort out.
Storage & file management: It provides a video library that helps us keep our media organized. Distribution: This also helps with distribution. It is easy to share links from here. Analytics: Analytics are then relatively easy to compile.
Quality of video, ease of use, security and privacy settings, automated CC service with great editability, easy to embed.
The CC editor is not always reliable (atm), video library tools could be better.
Vimeo is where we host all of our video content that is then embedded either on our website or on our LMS.
Fast, efficient, and effective method for streaming to our clients and business partners
There isn't anything I can think of that I don't like
We are in need of streaming to our business partners - solves for that
It is an easy to use and perfect platform for video hosting
At times it is having a confusing dashboard
Makes my streaming, hosting, embedding very easy
I love having all the tools I need on the same platform. Streaming, Customer Review Page, Storage of all video masters, and the possibility of selling my services.
The incorporation of tools such as automatic subtitling, or translation is missing.
The communication and distribution of the material, from the first editions for client reviews, to the delivery for download of the final editions.
Several great features. Overall, the ability to control so much of the embedded player is great. It's great to be able to customize the player with your brand colors, etc. I also love that we control what is shown at the end of the video. With other platforms, they automatically load/play a "related" video, which frequently was from a competitor. With Vimeo, we have a call to action or choose the next video to play. I also love that you can restrict access to the videos as well as restrict where they can be embedded. I also appreciate that I can update the video itself without changing the URL. Overall, it's a great resource for content creators.
I haven't found any significant issues using Vimeo. Very happy with it overall.
Hosting streaming video for our training material.
Ease of integration. We use Vimeo to broadcast to YouTube, Facebook, and our own website. I have occasionally also used the RFT integration, as well. The process is largely seamless.
New way of setting up a live-stream is confusing and kludgy. I much preferred the previous way of setting up a live-stream. Vimeo made assumptions about the live-stream work flow that do not apply to my situation. The revised workflow makes my job more difficult.
Vimeo is the key component of our outreach to viewers who cannot attend our church services in person. Initially, we used Vimeo during COVID to stay in touch with our members, watching a slimmed-down Sunday Mass. As parishioners are (slowly) returning to the pews, our focus has shifted somewhat to being a platform for outreach and evangelism. While some of our parishioners--generally our shut-ins--still watch us online, we have also accumulated a following from Africa, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. For some reason, we are very popular in Nigeria! In addition, we have welcomed new members who initially watched us online but who found our services attractive enough that they have begun attending in person.
Stable video with no headaches. I have used it for over 13 years.
Faceless. I am the highest level user and I should be assigned a contact.
My video hosting
We choose Vimeo over many other platforms due to its consistent reliability. We have streamed hundreds of times with Vimeo and it's always on point!
It's hard to think about something we don't like abouy Vimeo and live streaming. For storage, we wish there was more functionality.
Delivery of private films for review is something we find invaluable.
I like I can tailor my customers experience with privacy, they can leave detailed notes, and customer service is helpful.
That we are required to pay an annual fee up front for live services.
Allowing live streaming to be more accessible and professional.
puedo confiar mis proyectos de streaming
los costos ocultos, pero estuvo muy bien que se comunicaran conmigo por zoom para explicarme, pero prefería verlo en el site.
Me ha ayudado a expandir mi negocio conectando zoom con la grabación, el estreaming concurrente y el poder programarlo para ajustarlo a mis necesidades.
I love the ease of making an account and housing your content.
Sometimes I have trouble toggling between my accounts.
Hosting video content so that I can share it with other people.
I love how easy it is to manage the many videos we have in our business and the ability to share them easily and securely
I find it difficult to move videos around and files accordingly, it's not very intuitive and I have to faff about a bit until I find it and remember
I have to screen record tasks for my team sometimes and i'm loving being able to do that straight from Vimeo and then load into tasks in ClickUp for them to watch and complete
The simplicity of uploading videos, the speed at which videos load, and the comprehensive amount of features available.
The service is more costly than free alternatives, but also looks more professional
The ability to host videos privately and reliably deliver them to viewers
I like that I can screen record without having my face in the recording. I love that I can speed up and slow down videos and I love that we can trim videos
I don't like that we can't edit the display of the video.
Screen recording is helping me create training content for my job
The price for features is unbeatable. Storage is generous and the product keeps getting better.
The speed of the video manager is quite slow and it's quite cumbersome to use.
We share video with clients, and Vimeo makes the process very easy – from uploading, to receiving feedback. We also use Vimeo to embed videos and the player controls mean our embedded videos look great (and almost white label).
Ease of use, simple interface. Straightforward settings, nice integration with wordpress - patreon - etc.
2tb Cap for streaming monthly, next package up is a significant boost in pricing.
Pushing our live feeds out to various websites.
