Wistia Reviews & Product Details

Wistia is reliable, and rock solid. We use Wistia when playback REALLY matters - when a split second of buffering or load time could make all the difference, Wistia delivers.

Mobile app should be redone from scratch to pair better with the web app.

Organization of video assets and lightning-fast playback for embeds.

I like how easy Wistia is to use, espeically for sharing content and replays from our events. You can share videos across multiple mediums, including our Community platform and Hubspot emails. It's very user-friendly and doesn't require any training for usage, which is a plus! The Support team is friendly and quick to respond to queries.

I haven't encountered anything about Wistia that I dislike! Wistia meets all my needs perfectly in an easy and straightforward manner - no added unnecessary complexity.

Wistia helps me to easily share content between platforms and store all our content in one convenient place. It is an excellent archive of videos, and it's straightforward for me to source older content to share with a new audience.

Wistia has really helped our team streamline where we host our videos, share them with the broader team, and invite customers to view and engage with our content.

No downsides that I've noticed so far! We're really enjoying using Wistia so far and how much it has helped our team be more successful!

I love the new feature of editing while in Wistia, as opposed to working in an outside program and then uploading it into the in-app experience. Now we can do everything all at once inside a singular platform making it more centralized. Plus, we can create channels for our various marketing activities and can have an easier time seeing who's engaged with what video content per channel.

It does what it advertised. Log in, upload, get your embed code, and start hosting your video where you like. The loading speed and its ability to customize are also great. It's not the cheapest out there, but I would still consider it affordable for the control it can give you (as opposed to using YouTube, which provides little).

I wouldn't call it dislike, but I don't use their extra features like editing, trimming, etc. Dedicated software like Davinci or Premier is still my preferred option for editing.

We use Wistia to host our video sales letter. Being able to customize the watching experience is what we like about Wistia.

Wistia is a great video platform for businesses. I have been using it for years now and the video display customization, the integrations into CMS tools and the quick customer service makes it a no-brainer for companies that want to use video for marketing, landing page designs and more. What makes Wistia such a great tool is its ease of integration in landing pages and the ability to swap in updated versions of videos while maintaining the same URL. The channel feature also makes it easy to pull in categories of videos as a way to display them in an attractive and easy to view way. We also embed those channel page designs into our website which makes it so much easier to swap in videos, organize them and create an overall beautiful presentation.

There's very little to dislike about the tool, I haven't run into any challenges for things I want to do so far so I am grateful for that. I wish there was a way to link comments to accounts in HubSpot or so, that way I could easily click on the account and view it from Wistia.

Wistia has allowed us to display our webinar recordings, use videos as replacements for animated gifs on our site, track viewer behaviors like watch time and location, add in call to actions to landing pages and more.

feature set is unique, the platform is easy to use and robust. the team behind it cares very much about video and hosting and it is at the core of their dna.

in the many years i've been a wistia client i'd have to say i've had very little to be annoyed or frustrated about. i know right? rare!

some of the custom ability to link to courses, embedding captions, animated front gifs as a holding image. playlists are fantastic as well.

Professional streaming, excellent customer service

Nothing that I can think of, it's great!

Online course hosting

I especially like the user interface, including how I can easily organize content into folders (and grant folder rights to users) and edit video features and appearance for each video or the whole folder of videos. The HEX color entry on player controls makes it easy to match our brand, and I can see the results of my changes on the same page immediately after saving. It's also so easy to order closed captioning text right from the same place I'm controlling appearance. I've never had reliability issues with video upload or playback, and sharing my videos with multiple types of embeds or links is easy. Lastly, I think the pricing is a good value.

I really can't think of anything I don't like.

We wanted a white-label solution that allowed us to match video controls with our brand colors and didn't show users off-topic or inappropriate video content at the end (like YouTube might). We also needed password protection for some content. Wistia makes it easy to share videos with thousands of views or videos where we demonstrate something for a single customer.

If I have to choose one, It would be that if I make changes to a video, I can replace it, keep the stats, and most importantly, keep the same link. This saves a lot of work for all the designers and engineers who are using the embedded data since they don't have to do absolutely anything. The video replaces itself.

I really don't have anything in mind. If I encounter a problem, I write to them and they quickly respond or jump into a video call and they help me out with so much enthusiasm.

Wistia saves me a lot of time with the feature "Replace Media". I can keep the same video link withouth having to embed it again on all my sites.

Wisitia is very simple to use, but has lots of features that other video platforms don't offer. Specifically their channels feature. Their channels has given us the opportunity to have video become a big part of our website. Customer service is also top notch.

The new pricing has jumped a good amount. We are still staying with Wistia due to how much we like the platform, but we are now spending more than we would like to.

It has allowed us to natively integrate video into our website. So not only with embedded videos, but the channels feature has allowed us to create an entire section of our site dedicated to videos.
