Vimeo Reviews: 4.3/5 — Solid Choice

Vimeo allows us to stream video on our website without anything extra being added, such as ads. The annual cost is decent, too. We also like that we can upload videos for email marketing, and you don't have ads appearing, like you do with YouTube, or sending users to another organization's video after watching yours.

Can't think of anything! Vimeo is really great!

Streaming videos on our website; uploading videos to share through email.

I love how easy it is to upload and share videos that I create. I also love the ability to put my videos into albums and categories. The settings for embedding are also great.

I haven’t find anything that I dislike yet.

Video organizing and embedding, video sharing, team training videos, etc...

I recommend vimeo in terms of regular services and when it comes to their 'more immersive' services, you can expect the same level of quality that you have always received from them since day 1. I know I can trust Vimeo to give me good service and I can expect the results I want from what I upload in terms of viewership, likes, etc.

I sometimes feel like their help center does not respond as fast as I would like them to. They do respond fast, but not quick enough sometimes. I usually end up googling or searching facebook for my answers to problems which is more time consuming, but I still get an answer quicker than waiting. It is annoying that not everyone will be able to appreciate your work without the appropriate medium to watch (IE VR glasses) but, those who can will appreciate it and even those who can't will still be happy with what they are seeing, because Vimeo quality is Vimeo quality in the end.

How else can I put my VR out into the world aside from uploading it online?

The ability to interact with over 200 million users on Vimeo with some of the best upload and download quality in HD. Helps attract new customers and build brand presence while showcasing a fun side of entertainment. Has hundreds of video lessons available with service.

Business account only $50 per month, but billed annually before trial ends.

We have expanded our market presence and awareness in emerging markets. Helps us to lead/link into social presence on facebook and instagram.

I like that you can upload content in 8k

they must improve the platform for student classes

it can accommodate all the heavyweight videos

To be able to remove the Vimeo watermark (pro version). I also like that we can control who can view our videos. Like how Vimeo converts the video to multiple different formats.

You only get up to 5GB of free upload per week. Speed can be slow at times.

Vimeo does integrate much more smoothly with the app than YouTube. We are using the platform to roll out some training videos and private videos from events.

Works as you would expect. Allows you to post interesting videos to showcase your work.

It can be hard to use at times but overall ok.

Allows followers to see what we can do

Love the limitless storage and support for ultra high quality videos

Really nothing I dislike about the website. It wonderfully suits all of our needs.

Video storage capacity, support for 4k

Being able to upload and present videos to my clients. I like that videos can be password protected and remain private.

Ive had troubles with Consistentcy. I've had problems with my plalists and video collections.

Being able to allow clients to view only the videos specific to them and not allowing them access to my video library.

Easy to manage your videos and controls to design how they are viewed

Sometimes uploading has issues and need to reupload videos

Including video on my websites and marketing material

Vimeo Pro is interesting in gay it’s a unique platform and has very effective features.

The program is not always very user friendly and is sometimes confusing

Making videos better

The ease of use is the best feature. It is very intuitive and makes splitting a bill a snap.

I don't like that I can see what other people have paid for recently. That means they can see me too...

We have not applied this to business.

- In one word: "Elegant"!!! - I like very much the customization features for the video player. - Generated links are easy to use/view/resend - Good handling of galleries and albums

- Price should be half of the actual monthly/annual cost, i.e. 10US$ - I think there should exists a wide base of "Direct to Vimeo" plugins for Video Editing applications - Personally haven't used it for "moneytizing", but heard from and employee that he had an issue with her deposit, can't confirm it though.

- Just like "youtube", I have not suffered from downtimes. I really like that.

I've always enjoyed the viewing experience on Vimeo more than Youtube. Recently I’ve been using Vimeo Pro for work and I must say they've done a good job with the user experience. Youtube is super confusing sometimes but Vimeo has done a much better job with the backend. I'm not sure what the analytics look like on the Youtube side but the analytics are pretty nice in Vimeo. We use them pretty regularly to test how much our videos are being watched from different pages on our site.

The only con would be that more people view our videos on youtube because youtube just has more users. But for any videos we embed on our website, that doesn't matter as much, so they're all embedded from Vimeo.

A better experience for hosting and embedding our business videos. We always put our marketing videos on vimeo and usually use youtube for hosting our support and unboxing videos. This might be a weak answer, but I'm also just partial to vimeo because the UI is clean and nice. It's just a nicer more professional viewing experience. Though I know not everyone cares about that.

I like Vimeo because it's efficient with presenting videos to candidates. It's a great way to promote a company's brand with a professional and personal touch. The videos can also be used to show the culture of a co. so a potential employee can make a well informed decision.

I don't have any negative comments or feedback about vimeo. A video is a great way for candidates to see the interaction between employees. And they can also watch videos from hiring managers.

The business problem that's being solved is showing the firms brand and culture to candidates.

For our clients, Vimeo Pro allows us to white label videos, put them behind a login wall and customize everything from the color of the play button to where the video can be embedded.

There is not much to dislike. Although a free pro account would be nice this would not make for a good business model.

The ability to host videos privately without ads.

It is extremely helpful that we can replace a video file rather than having to upload new versions and delete the old.

I don't really have any complaints about the service.

Iteration and development of client content. Being able to replace content at the same link makes the process simpler.

I love how Vimeo Pro allows you to add time-coded notes during the video! This is great because it allows clients to collaborate on the video and contribute their own edits. They can click on these time-coded notes to elaborate on what parts they like or what parts they want to be cut out.

I dislike the fact that there are STILL banner ads, despite this being a paid service. At a bare minimum, Vimeo Pro should remove ads. Another aspect I dislike is the upload size. You are only able to upload 500MB per week, which I feel is pretty low for a "pro" account.

Vimeo Pro allows me to securely share my videos with collaborators which helps so much with the editing process. Not only is the quality of video immensely better, the advanced stats Vimeo Pro offers helps me track engagement.

Being able to watch a video, any time and any where, while also being able to upload a video any time and any where. Unlike many other video based platforms, Vimeo allows you to upload your videos with such ease, while being able to customize your personal page as well and add a flare to your profile.

The price of Vimeo pro could be viewed as a bit steep with how many features Vimeo's base services provide, but for the right customer, it is very worth it.

Being able to upload videos that are specific to our company. The biggest benefit is how easy it is to upload a video, and get that video out to the intended audience.

Easy to upload video and distribute to colleagues

Don’t really dislike anything—easy to use

Simple and cost effective way to share videos

The possibility to organize the video in portfolios

Little customizations for video portfolios and the lack of creating subcategories in the portfolio itself

Not being a developer but needing a customer center with videos for our customer, I did not know how to create one on our wordpress website. I was able to create portfolios on vimeo pro and then simply link this portfolios to our website. in this way, we do not have to worry about managing the videos on our side!

I love that there are no ads on our videos and the upload is quick! I also enjoy getting to customize the embed code and the way it is presented on other websites.

I don't like the limit to how much you can upload in a given amount of time, but we have not run into any issues after purchasing the pro account.I don't like the limit to how much you can upload in a given amount of time, but we have not run into any issues after purchasing the pro account.

Vimeo gives us a place to house all of our video marketing material with easy to share capabilities

The ability to remove Vimeo branding and other buttons that click off the page while embedding into a webpage. Also it is very simple to use.

I didn't like that they didn't have a live feature, but they are currently rolling that out.

Being able to offer video to members without having to host on the site or stream through AWS. It is easy, looks great and easy.

easy to use, able to make videos private and share with company with higher quality

search bar at top vs. search bar within own channel took me forever to distinguish

place to hide all the internal company videos

Vimeo is centered on hosting and sharing your personal project videos instead of making videos to go viral or generating revenue. They are doing a great way to separate the community with the commercial aspect by offering the PRO product for businesses who want to use their network to host the videos.

Only one plan for their PRO product, although it is very generous and worth every cent you spent.

Not provided

Clean interface, not bloated with adds and popups. Focus is on user-created content, rather than uploaded content from elsewhere. Good embedding and sharing options.

Free plan poses serious limitations for HD content.

Not provided

The credibility behind the platform, as a way for artists to share their work

Sometimes being difficult to find the exact content I'm looking for

Not provided

Like most people reviewing this tool have said, the absence of ads is refreshing. It's easy to get going with the pro account, which is inexpensive if you consider what you're getting back.

The community side that you get from YouTube is missing on Vimeo. While on YouTube channels you can easily build a community of subscribers who follow your videos and comment etc., Vimeo doesn't really have that.

Not provided

Vimeo is a great video marketing tool that has a clean interface and ad-free video streaming

Vimeo isn't yet a complete replacement for YouTube. It doesn't quite have the same community despite having what I feel is a superior product

Not provided

Vimeo provides a great way to share your videos, minus the ubiquitous advertising all over YouTube. Like YouTube, Vimeo also has sophisticated streaming technology that adjusts for whether you are watching on dial-up (does anyone still even do that?) or high speed broadband.

YouTube offers slightly more analytics info on your videos. Vimeo limits how much you can store in your account before needing to purchase the "plus" subscription.
