"Vimeo Review"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I liked the video options it provided that I can show in my class. I also like the closed captioning options. I found a lot of political videos that can be shared using vimeo. For some reason, I find them to be more clear than youtube videos.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I do not like the weekly limits for the free account. It gives a max of 500MB per week and 10 files a day. Different platforms offer more.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

There is a diverse range of videos provided on Vimeo. I often share a lot of them in my classes. Many videos on other platforms do not offer closed captioning which is very problematic for students with disabilities.

"Vimeo Review"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Ease of use. It embeds well and is easily accessible and shareable via direct link. That makes things very easy to do!

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

There seems to be lag sometimes, not always, depending on the video that is being displayed. It also happens more with LiveStream events than it does with pre-recorded.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Vimeo to LiveStream our campus chapels so that we can keep our students distanced during this pandemic,

Easy to locate users and send or receive money. I like also being able to see what others have sent to whom and the notes they leave.

Video user base is much smaller than Youtube which greatly diminishes to amount of traffic your videos will receive.

Vimeo has allowed us to upload our high quality videos and share them with our network.

"Vimeo360 app"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I enjoy how easy the app is to use. It's very simple and I have never had any issues with it.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Not a ton of people use the app. I think if more people did it would become much more popular as a social media outlet.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can edit and share videos using Vimeo 360 which is great. I really like having this ability.

"Vimeo Pro Review"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

As an editor, I like that I can publish in high quality. I also like that I get so much storage space.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I dislike the search function. I feel like it’s difficult to find specific videos on the site.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Eliminates the need to free up storage space. Makes sharing private videos easy.

"Great for aspiring filmmakers, or VSCO "artists"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

It's nice to either browse for others' work, or upload your own.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

It's a bit cluttered with a variety of subject matter, and sometimes it feels a little too... "hipster", as it's a very common platform for beginners to showcase their skills.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

If I need to upload a video to share en masse, it's perfect. Much more reliable than youtube, and the audience is more mature and controlled. Perfect for getting your message across without internet trolling.

"Vimeo Plus for internal projects"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Very easy to use. Currently using Vimeo plus, which offers increased hosting capacity (among other benefits) compared to the free accounts. We typically use Vimeo for internal projects that require more hosting capacity and security (i.e., internal training videos, etc).

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Like the features and measurement provided by Wistia better.

"I would recommend but there are features that need to be talked about for the OTT experience."
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I like the professional feel of the platform, especially on Roku.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Main dislike would be that videos are broken into parts and that there are no recurring keys.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are hoping that vimeo is going to be able to have recurring keys so that we can have a daily episode of something on our site.

"Easy To View Videos On, But Not As Easy To Create Videos"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

As a viewer of videos already uploaded, I find Vimeo a very nice platform to use.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I don't like that Vimeo automatically assumes what you want in a video. It makes a draft out of your uploads without the user being able to make edits or suggestions. I don't see it as user-friendly as some software I have used. This software cannot be used in a pinch, in my opinion.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We frequently upload videos for work, and having video software, such as Vimeo, allows us to have options.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

A decent user network for relatively short videos.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Not developed for multi-sided professional video streaming for live events.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Many Vimeo videos are already available in other larger platforms, so I may not need to search on Vimeo when I have other options. Some short academic videos provided by certain academic associations are supplied only via Vimeo, so I will focus on that specific category.

"Not enough features for the price "
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I really like the layout of Vimeo because the learning curve is very low and allows even novices to understand how to use it.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I didn’t like that the features of the platform were fairly limited to basic items compared to other video hosting sites.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used it to share videos privately with clients for their review.

"Great storage but no monthly billing option"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I do like that the PRO account allows for up to 4 times the amount of storage as the PLUS or basic accounts have. Also you can add other users to your account without facing a price increase.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I don't like that they have no option for monthly billing, I understand the reasoning behind it but I feel like the annual billing makes it inaccessible for a lot of users.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is easy accessibility for video hosting and sharing. I also feel like it is a safe and secure form of storage. It reduces anxiety of physical hardware storage becoming damaged.

"Venmo Pro Review"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Vimeo is an easy way to provide links for clients to access the videos we've produced for them. Links are as simple as any web link. You can make a video private and password protect it, unlist it, ensure only specific Vimeo users can see a video, etc.v

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

It's 2018 and streaming shouldn't be complicated. Unfortunately, despite accessing Vimeo from many locations (home computer, office, mobile, client's offices) Vimeo has continued to prove its total incompetence.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used Vimeo Pro for uploading and presenting videos to clients. Vimeo was a simple way to share links to our work as well as keep videos password protected for clients.

"Worst Customer experience with Vimeo"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Nothing really. It's very difficult to find stuff. Hardly any usability studies is my guess. We were using Youtube.. should probably switch back.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Customer support is miserable! And this is about renewal! They make it so difficult to even accept money! I've written several emails to them and haven't go any response. There's no live chat option. And the one response that I got - didn't even address all the questions that I had. What a miserable way to treat customers. We hardly need to reach out to them, but when we actually need help - they are hopeless.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We just want a place to host videos and manage privacy levels. We also don't want ads

"vimeo of the worst video websites"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

vimeo is a web page with online video service, that is very clear, the service offered is very intuitive, it cannot be denied.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Vimeo does not have exactly much quality in what it offers, its main disadvantage is its plans, since they became extremely expensive compared to how much they were, and if you do not update the membership they limit you a lot, your customer service system It is totally a waste of time, its speed when loading the videos is totally slow and the loaded video is always cut, it can be said that there are many more points against that in favor of vimeo.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

From the beginning I subscribed to Vimeo to use it in the company where I currently work, since it is a good alternative to upload video links and play them later, whether they are personal training videos or others, but now I consider the price of the plans, since they are extremely expensive, vimeo used to be one of the best pages in his field and I hope he will be what he was before.

"Vimeo is great for hosting videos online, but it doesn't work very well for delivery to clients."
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I like that vimeo is decently inexpensive. I also like that privacy settings are highly customizable. It is also very useful that we can make the videos downloadable, as well as password protected.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

When uploaded to vimeo, the color profile on our videos is changed, and the the image looks much more flat, unsaturated, and with less contrast. It is also unhelpful that we cannot arrange our public-facing vimeo page to show the videos from newest to oldest.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using vimeo to host videos for the public, and we are sending private linked videos to internal and external clients for review and dowloadable delivery.

"Vimeo software has poor technical service."
What do you like best about Vimeo?

The software has features that attract attention, but what I like most about the software is that it allows me to upload and share private videos very easily.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

At the company we bought the Pro license of the Vimeo software, this is because we observed that in the free version of the software the old or old videos were deleted but with the higher version they had the same problem.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

They have very poor support, they do not provide solutions to the needs of customers, the support responds in a very slow way, when we try to get a video in the account it is a very difficult maze to locate the videos and the uploaded information.
