"Effortless Video Hosting with Minor Customization Limits"
5/5
What do you like best about Wistia?

I find it very easy to upload and add metadata and generate text descriptions with AI on Wistia. The interface is pretty simple and easy to use, and everything is well documented on the support site. Plus it provides more control over look and feel of brand, unlike some other video hosting platforms, pitching ads of their liking after your video was played, which is a branding risk.

What do you dislike about Wistia?

Email notifications within webinars - they are great as zero effort solution for practical case, but if you want some creative flexibility and customization - there is no easy way. You could use integration, like HubSpot, but it just multiplies amount of work and creates deliverability risks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I wouldn't want to work marketing at a company that doesn't have it"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Wistia?

I honestly would require it in any marketing organization I'm a part of. It's crucial to the digital marketing function in this day and age. There are no other video platforms that are this easy to use for our job. I appreciate the updates that come regularly to make it an even better product - you can tell the company is there actively trying to help its customers. I may not log in every day but those videos are up on the website, we upload weekly demo videos, and it is constantly running, bringing in views and active engagement of our audiences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wistia?

I can't say there are many downsides. While the features that get rolled out don't apply to my job 100% of the time, it is always nice to see them coming and see the product sticking up with the times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Video Hosting and Editing with Wistia"
5/5
What do you like best about Wistia?

I find Wistia very easy to get the right format of video to host on our website and also to cut and snip bits of videos and add subtitles. It's really simple to snip up, like creating webinar snippets, which has been very efficient for us. The main usage and efficiency are in taking videos that we can host online or use in ads.

"Effortless Webinar Streaming and Editing for Online Courses"
5/5
What do you like best about Wistia?

We use the webinar feature every week to stream lessons from our online courses and connect with our community. The editor allows me to easily assemble clips and slides, and I can also add intro and outro music without any hassle. I also appreciate the wide range of features available, including social clips and chapters, which make posting on social media a breeze. The team is a delight to work with and has been very cooperative. We also use the integration to tag on Intercom which has helped us streamline the needs of our clients or anyone visiting our site. We've embedded the stream to our website which also provides ease of viewing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wistia?

I personally don't have much to speak on as I'm not advanced in tech; however, I know there are still certain improvements to be made with integrations to which I know they are actively working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Video Hosting with Great Analytics"
5/5
What do you like best about Wistia?

I really like Wistia's easy-to-use interface because it doesn't make things harder than they have to be; less is more. The simple analytics are nice, focusing on the overall metrics that matter and not showing a ton of random, unnecessary vanity metrics. The A/B testing feature is great for measuring engagement and comparing content. These features help us compare what is working better or worse to inform and improve marketing campaigns. The initial setup was very easy, which was a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wistia?

I think it would be cool if Wistia would integrate with other overall website traffic tools to see how video engagement relates to overall page metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Video Hosting with Excellent Support"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Wistia?

I use Wistia to share and embed videos and it makes video hosting dead simple. I love their excellent resources and support, and their editing, branding, and captioning features are all easy to use but quite powerful. Sharing video content is easy for everyone involved and the quality is always high and reliable. The initial setup was very easy and their support team is always quick to respond and provide helpful information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wistia?

Some of the AI features are still coming along, such as pre-selected social clips. They need to be more accurate in terms of topics/transcribing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
