Compare Vimeo with other popular tools in the same category.
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.
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.
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.
Reliable and good place to store video content
Doesn't have the same UX as YouTube, or other tools with social features/recommendations/searchability
Needed a place to store my videos in a secure, private location where no one else would see them
Ease of use. It embeds well and is easily accessible and shareable via direct link. That makes things very easy to do!
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.
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.
I can’t really say that there is anything I don’t like about this product. It’s been easy to use and has never made an error for me
Payments to and from other coworkers is much simpler. No one person is responsible for keeping an envelope of cash for party and office events
Vimeo has always been a great go to website for high quality content. Anything uploaded on Vimeo seems to have a much higher quality and credibility.
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.
I enjoy how easy the app is to use. It's very simple and I have never had any issues with it.
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.
I can edit and share videos using Vimeo 360 which is great. I really like having this ability.
Extra features over the vimeo regular
Not very simple to navigate, and explore new features.
Sharing, stats.
The quality of the Vimeo encoder is great.
Sometimes the buffering can be a little slow.
Video sharing is made easy with Vimeo Pro.. The benefits of this are huge, sending large video files is always a pain point..
I think the editing capabilities and the user interface is great.
Just like any marketplace, if no one is there then it's not worth going to
Connections to other content creators
mobile access can't use on company equipment
slow lots of buffering can't have too many applications open
can use on mobile devices
As an editor, I like that I can publish in high quality. I also like that I get so much storage space.
I dislike the search function. I feel like it’s difficult to find specific videos on the site.
Eliminates the need to free up storage space. Makes sharing private videos easy.
It's nice to either browse for others' work, or upload your own.
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.
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.
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).
Like the features and measurement provided by Wistia better.
Not provided
I like the professional feel of the platform, especially on Roku.
Main dislike would be that videos are broken into parts and that there are no recurring keys.
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.
As a viewer of videos already uploaded, I find Vimeo a very nice platform to use.
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.
We frequently upload videos for work, and having video software, such as Vimeo, allows us to have options.
A decent user network for relatively short videos.
Not developed for multi-sided professional video streaming for live events.
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.
I really like the layout of Vimeo because the learning curve is very low and allows even novices to understand how to use it.
I didn’t like that the features of the platform were fairly limited to basic items compared to other video hosting sites.
We used it to share videos privately with clients for their review.
I liked the quality of the videos/media presented.
To upload and navigate the system can be difficult if you do not understand technology.
Training on a different web-based system instead of youtube.
I like that you're able to upload large video files that can then me tethered to another social media app
Not user friendly when it come to navigating through different areas of the site
Try to create videos for advertisement
ease of use with a minimal learning curve
has some features which are a bit more challenging
usage of storage for videos especially with advertising
It contains a very good video player and makes it easy
Like a lot of software, there is a lot of ads and prices for more storage are higher
Makes it easy to produce the videos I need compared to other video making software
The video based content. Gives more in depth look versus photos on Instagram & limited video footage (time-wise)
Having to use a different app for high quality video content. Wish it was more integrated into other social media platforms.
Sharing high quality content online without a lot of common limitations
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
Nothing really. It's very difficult to find stuff. Hardly any usability studies is my guess. We were using Youtube.. should probably switch back.
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.
We just want a place to host videos and manage privacy levels. We also don't want ads
vimeo is a web page with online video service, that is very clear, the service offered is very intuitive, it cannot be denied.
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.
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.
You find videos that are not on Youtube. Vimeo's rules and regulations seem to be a little more relaxed than other video publishing websites.
Vimeo is outdated. Anything you watch here is mostly already published on YouTube save the ones that are copyright protected.
Videos upload and business video sharing.
Vimeo makes it easy to record Quick videos or interviews it's a very convenient method to conduct employee interviews it makes it easy to conduct a one way interview it provides a really easy navigation system for video editing
I don't really think there was any particular thing that I dislike that I could put my finger on it I do feel it was a pretty easy software to navigate however there were a couple hiccups that should still be worked out
I realized it's simple to do video editing with Vimeo Pro and I can edit tons of videos simultaneously
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
