What do you like best about Vimeo?

Scalability - from hosting videos on private links all the way up to running full live streams without needing anything other than a browser! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Awful, awful pricing structure. Need a little extra space, sign up for a new subscription with lots of other stuff you'd never use. Happy with subscription but want more caption hours, tough luck - there's no way to add that without you signing up for a completely different package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a streaming and on-demand hosting company, we need a failsafe video host. We looked into our own server but the cost was high and we'd need to code a lot of it ourselves. Vimeo fills that gap really well.

Primariliy we host private videos that are locked to our domains (easy to set up, thank you Vimeo!) that we then link across to our platform. Really easy to do in vimeo, no watermarks (unless we want them) and without people being able to access the back-end host to download them (that I've found - and believe me I have tried!)

We also use their live streams, all as sending a RTMP stream to Vimeo to transcode and host. Never had an issue with Vimeo ever. Player is easy to brand, captions can be enabled (but don't ask if you can buy more caption hours!) and the whole lot can be recorded onto your Vimeo too (or not, it's an option) so you have a back up in the cloud almost immediately.

Uploading to Vimeo is a bit of a faff if you use their uploader (one file at a time, have to keep the web page open and if you get updates, you start all over again) BUT Vimeo will let you integrate with OneDrive/Google Drive etc. so you can leave files uploading to your hosting service before running the Vimeo web apps to transfer the files within SECONDS! - you also get a handy 2nd back up on your cloud host too. Nice one Vimeo :)

Their on-line tools are basic, but do what you need. If you're chopping the start and end off a recorded stream/uploaded video that's really easy to do. There are other options, but if we're heading down that line we're going to do it properly via Premiere!

It's a shame that some options don't follow through to all levels of subscription - when we had a basic low GB subscription we could share folders with our clients that they could download. Now we're on a Pro account, that's impossible (!?). But as mentioned earlier, as we have a back up of everything on the Googs Drive, that's how we share nowadays.

All in all, Vimeo is the best video host/CMS that I've found for small businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

vimeo is probably the best video hosting software I have used so far. We tried to shift for other video hosting platforms to save cost but couldn't find any of them as worth as vimeo. Its truly great. Its easy to use, very easy to navigate, UI is simple and great. the pricing plans are also not that expensive. You can upload the videos easily and control everything. We use it almost daily for our office use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

The free plan is too restricted. Didn't like that part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest problem vimeo is solving for us is video hosting and using it easily on any other platform. We have a course platform where we can use our vimeo videos easily by using its link, on our landing pages, we have used vimeo's video link instead of uploading it on the platform, which increased the website speed. It has a lot of positive features we love. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

The platform offers a range of tools, including advanced privacy settings, video analytics, and customizable thumbnails. These features are particularly beneficial for businesses and educators who need to track engagement and present content in a polished manner. Additionally, Vimeo’s integration with various platforms enhances its usability, making it easier to share content across different channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

While Vimeo offers an exceptional platform with numerous features that enhance video presentation and engagement, I find myself increasingly concerned about its pricing structure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vimeo provides a fantastic service with its high-quality video hosting, versatile features, and supportive community. However, the rising costs associated with their subscription plans may deter potential users, particularly those operating on tight budgets. While I appreciate the quality and functionality that Vimeo offers, I urge the company to reconsider its pricing strategy to remain accessible to a broader audience.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

Vimeo is very easy to use, uploading audiovisual content is fast, the interface is user-friendly and the customer service is exceptional. What I highlight the most is the ability to customize access to content, either for videos to be viewed only in viewing mode or blocking unauthorized downloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

No complaints, it meets my expectations and provides easy usability without technical obstacles. Vimeo responds well in terms of loading, playback and content organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

First of all, its protection against unauthorized access is excellent for maintaining the confidentiality of my materials and another great point is the HD quality of the content, which allows my shared visual materials to look sharp and well presented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

The most important helpful from Vimeo stock is gives me a super benifits what I have invested my time and values Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Nothing more dislike about Vimeo stock it's great to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vimeo Stock primarily addresses the challenges faced by filmmakers, videographers, and content creators in sourcing high-quality stock footage. By providing a platform where users can access a wide range of professionally shot videos, Vimeo Stock simplifies the process of finding relevant and visually appealing content for projects.

As for how this benefits me, well, it's a win-win situation. Vimeo Stock's existence means that creators have easier access to diverse footage, which can improve the quality and variety of the content they produce. This, in turn, enhances the overall content landscape on platforms like Vimeo, potentially attracting more viewers and users. Plus, it aligns with Vimeo's mission of empowering creators by providing them with the tools and resources they need to bring their visions to life. So, when creators thrive, Vimeo thrives, and as a platform designed to support creativity and expression, that's definitely a positive outcome for me! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

The most interesting part of using Vimeo is that it does not show ads which makes the viewing experience far better than YouTube. They also have a large community of users who check each other's work and give their feedback according to their experiences and needs also just like YouTube if your video gets good traction and reach you can also monetise from your video content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

The audience available on Vimeo is much smaller than YouTube which minimizes the chances of getting it viral easily also in the free version they have limited storage which is not enough if you post your conent on a regular basis. The uploading and viewing speed of Vimeo is also not that speed if compared to YouTube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Whenever we need to connect with our internal teams through video conferencing in those video meetings vimeo becomes a great option. Because it is simple, user-friendly and can be used by any of the team members who are working even in the remote areas. Users can experience working on it for better connectivity and reach in their organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vimeo?

Easy to use, lots of storage and bandwidth, great customer service on the enterprise plan

Privacy controls to embedded videos or to make them public, private or only with password

Easy to implement and integrate on web designing and development projects through the API Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Some features that are a given on other platforms, here are paid features, for example, translated subtitles to different languages, which are free and automatic on Youtube, here you need the enterprise + AI package that costs $20,000USD a year (yes, it comes with other features like dubbing, but if you only care about subtitles, thats the fee) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
