Compare Vimeo with other popular tools in the same category.
Ease to embed into websites, useful configuration tools for both live streaming and player embedding; RTMP features open new opportunities for simulcasts.
Not being able to "edit" online since new features allow only to trim. Also, trimmed videos replace the originals, instead of being saved as a new one. Also, Studio is limited regarding gfx abilities.
Simultaneous streaming is sort of solved since a premium account allows at least two events streamed at once. Individual RTMP URL per event is also convenient for multi-channel live streaming.
Vimeo is an affordable and efficient way to store and host my company's video projects. Its tools let me embed videos on my websites while customizing the interaction options.
There's actually nothing I dislike about Vimeo. It's a better hosting and embedding option than YouTube and is significantly more affordable than other options on the market.
It's a safe place to store video projects, but it's also a great way to host videos that I embed on my websites. The customization tools let me change color options to match branding, add calls-to-action on videos, and a varity of privacy settings. It also syncs with my caption provider, making that process pretty much as easy as it can be.
I love that I now only need one subscription for my video marketing needs. Not only do I have a place to upload and host my videos, but the marketing tools and analytic capabilities are great. I absolutely LOVE the review feature. Previously I would have had to subscribe to Frame.io or a similar video review tool, but I am so thankful that Vimeo includes this as part of their Pro Plan. The other feature that I use frequently is Showcases. This makes it incredibly easy to create collections of client work for an elegant way to present final deliverables.
I don't love that Showcases can't be private. It would be great if we could create a private showcase for sensitive or unreleased client work.
Vimeo helps me to host, market, review, and deliver my video content to my clients.
Ease of use, navigation and configuration. Secure access.
Nothing. It is easy to use. I wish it integrated with more applications like Silver Chair to serve up video content within our digital library.
With Vimeo, we now have a common platform for serving up and storing video.
Easy to use. Rich video information and many options for the video to be published or to have it private. Secure, you can protect your media with a password. You can enable or disable the download button. Many more features, like Vimeo live and Vimeo channels. Sharing and embedding options. Processing a video is like a charm, and it encodes the video with multiple resolutions for the best quality and speed.
I want to see more controls in the player.
I am uploading large videos for online streaming, like film screenings.
It is easy to upload videos to your account, organize them, and set privacy settings. With the Pro or above accounts, you can set it so videos can only be embedded on certain domains.
It may not be cost effective for you if you don't have many videos and don't need branding or privacy settings for your particular situation.
We use Vimeo for simple online hosting of videos for courses and promotional videos for websites. We organize into folders and set permissions accordingly. Team access is configured so it is easy to keep videos in the right place and anyone can upload them after a recording that needs to be placed on the website. Every player is on-brand so we still look great and profession image is preserved.
I like that Vimeo allows password protected video content.
The monthly cost can be slightly pricey.
Having a platform to host my videos.
We do video editing for clients and use the review function the most. It allows us to share videos with our clients and they can make comments on the timeline - helping our editors clearly understand what they need to change. Really awesome. Once edits are made, the editor replaces the video and the client can toggle between the previous version with their time-stamped comments and the current version to check edits. Works like a charm
It is not exactly cheap but it is worth it.
The main problem we are solving is client communication. Although we really started using Vimeo to host our videos because Youtube started showing the other video ads at the end of their videos. We embed many videos on websites and really do not appreciate having some competitor's video pop up when a visitor finished watching ours. But after we started using it we found the review function and it changed our workflow completely.
Vimeo is very convenient to use for all video hosting services. Vimeo is used as a video hosting tool for embedding videos on various websites. The key advantage of Vimeo is that it can display videos without any advertisments or related/suggested videos. Vimeo is also very easy to implement, the embedded code for the videos can be obtained from the same page as the video itself and its easy to edit/modify to make it according to the various requirements that we need.
Vimeo is at times glitchy in the implementation. Also the UI is not as attractive and user friendly as other platforms like YouTube. For most queries you can get support online. There is also a limit on the video hosting service as Vimeo is a freemium service which requies you to subscribe after a certain stage. Overall compared to YouTube, Vimeo has its advantages and disadvantages in its use and implementation
We use Vimeo as a platform for hosting videos and embedding them on various websites. It is also helpful in adding videos without additional clutter like advertisments and related videos which are present in YouTube. Also its pretty convinient to use Vimeo to add and play embedded videos in a loop.
We loved that this was a place we could host password protected videos to be shared with some of our partners. It took us a while to find a solution to fit our needs and this was perfect.
There is nothing we disliked about the platform. It suited all our needs.
We had a lot of training videos that needed a place to be hosted, but also not open for just anyone to access. These videos were sent to partners easily through the vimeo link and were password protected which was huge for us. This made it easy to host/send all our training in one place.
