Wistia Reviews & Product Details

I love how easy it is to replace videos on Wistia. It saves so much time not having to re-embed videos when we have minor tweaks to make to our content.

I don't dislike much about Wistia. I had to make a suggestion, it would be great if you could download uploaded thumbnail files.

Wistia makes it easy to report on how our content is performing.

Wistia makes it easy to organize and embed video files. We our content sorted into folders and we have it wired up to report to Google analytics. I also like that I can include a caption file.

I can't think of any downsides to Wistia.

We just needed to put our training videos in an accessible place.

I like that I can see how many people viewed the video. This helps ensure that students are watching the materials I posted and benefiting from the information.

I wish I could see statistics for when students stop watching a video (YouTube has this feature). This can help me encourage people to go back and finish the whole thing.

I like that videos can be edited now and the auto-captions are easy to generate, I don't fix them, but it's nice to know I could if I wanted to. I use this platform mainly for teaching so accessibility is important.

We use wista for our video hosting - especially for the online lessons for our programs. It's an easy platform to use and would recommend it to everybody

I haven't found a downside yet. I'll update the review once I find one

I needed video hosting for a good price, and Wistia solved that for me

I enjoy how engaged the Customer Success Manager is and how they help you learn the product.

At this moment, everything seems to be fine.

I love that the Wistia platform is minimalist (in my opinion), which is great because I tend to get distracted easily.

Wistia helps keep track of videos we use for our clients and marketing. I don't know what we would do without it, honestly. I love the embed feature, especially for creating knowledge bases and other assets.

The only trouble I have had is with managing permissions on the pages. Sometimes we need to give permissions for a singular folder to an 3rd party and it sometimes doesn't work the first go around without giving them full permissions.

Wistia solves an organization problem, formatting problem (embed), and also allows us to keep everything in one place which is awesome compared to scattering things throughout individual google drives throughout the company!

I really love working with the Wistia platform. I have been using it for a number of years now and all the features Wistia have are really easy to use. They are constantly listening to customer feedback and adding more great features. The support is always fantastic too. Really nice to deal with.

I would love to see more analytics on the podcast side but I hear there are plans for more in this area so hopefully they will roll this out soon.

We needed more control over our videos on our website, playlists and customization of embedded forms and CTAs. It is benefiting as an easy place to manage and host videos, see analytics and add leads straight into our CRM from CTAs and embedded forms. Very powerful platform.

The quality of the videos maintained upon upload is perfect. There are great organizational features, settings for public and private sharing, and compatibility when using across platforms.

I would like to see even more organizational features and perhaps a change in aesthetics while maintaining its user-friendly interface. Otherwise, the host does exactly what its meant to.

Storing large video files in a way that can be either public or private, allowing users to import videos directly from Wistia to websites, emails, and other platforms that allow for custom coding.

I'm a tech writer and my teammate is an instructional designer; we use Wistia to leave feedback and discuss content, and I love how easy Wistia makes this with the time stamp feature, so we always know exactly what point in the video we're talking about. I also love being able to download audio transcripts to be able to revise for the documentation I write.

I really enjoy Wistia, so I feel like my complaints are limited to nitpicks like having to re-enter my name every time I leave a comment on a video. The way videos are organized does sometimes confuse me.

My team is fully remote, so Wista makes it easy to collaborate on projects together. It also eliminates the need for me to take down audio transcripts myself since I can download them from Wistia--it saves me a huge amount of time.

Speed of video delivery and ease of use of the platform

Pricing seems high in comparison with compètition

Quick video streaming combined with analytics
