Gumlet vs. SAS Viya

Gumlet has been consistently reliable whenever we need to deliver video assets for internal projects or client work. As mentioned earlier, DRM protection and livestreaming are two standout strengths. We moved from Vimeo to Gumlet and haven’t regretted it. That said, if you need native social media integrations to go live or schedule posts, this isn’t the right tool. It’s also not ideal for monetized channels or large private audiences, as the current limits on private subscribers and profiles are relatively low.

SAS Advance Analytics is well suited for data that is visual. Data where you want to see multiple graphs and models are good for this software. However, if your data is more descriptive this may not be the best program. SAS is well suited for data where you need to make comparisons on the feasibility of two different programs. Data that can be compared is perfect for this software.

• Watching videos together in a group, synchronously, works perfectly – no stuttering, no pixelation, no audio dropouts, even if someone only has mediocre internet.
• The automatic adjustment of video quality to each individual's internet speed ensures that the best quality is always delivered without me having to worry about it.
• Videos start instantly and without loading time, which is a huge difference compared to our previous LMS and makes the flow of live events appear relaxed and professional.
• Das gemeinsame, synchrone Anschauen von Videos in einer Gruppe funktioniert absolut stabil – kein Ruckeln, kein Verpixeln, keine Ton-Aussetzer, sogar wenn jemand nur mittelmäßiges Internet hat.

• I would like the ability to set a higher minimum playing resolution so that videos aren't blurry at the start.
• Coming from Vimeo I would like to see a Chrome extension or Windows application to record my screen similar to what Loom has.
• I would like to see sub folder in playlists within collections. Currently I can only have top level playlists.

• SAS Analytics does not have very good graphic capabilities. Their advanced graphics packages are expensive, and still not very appealing or intuitive to customize.
• SAS Analytics is not as up-to-date when it comes to advanced analytical techniques as R or other open-source analytics packages.

I’d rate our likelihood to renew at a clear 10, because Gumlet has become such an integral part of how we deliver, protect and scale our video content. The platform consistently performs without issues, the playback quality is excellent, and the security features give us peace of mind that no other tool matched. Beyond reliability, Gumlet keeps adding meaningful improvements such as AI subtitles, interactive elements, and better analytics, which continue to streamline our workflow and increase engagement without extra effort from our team. At this point, switching to anything else would feel like a step backwards, both in efficiency and overall video experience.

Not only does SAS become easier to use as the user gets more familiar with its capabilities, but the customer service is excellent. Any issues with SAS and their technical team is either contacting the user via email, chat, text, WebEx, or phone. They have power users that have years of experience with SAS there to help with any issue.

The dashboard is simple to navigate. It's easy to view my videos and organize them. It just makes sense. I don't have to guess where to find anything. I also love the import tool and the ability to set up players based on my collections. This type of customization will save me time!

If SAS Enterprise Guide is utilized any beginning user will be able to shorten the learning curve. This is allow the user a plethora of basic capabilities until they can utilize coding to expand their needs in manipulating and presenting data. SAS is also dedicated to expanding this environment so it is ever growing.

SAS probably has the most market saturation out of all of the analytics software worldwide. They are in every industry and they are knowledgable about every industry. They are always available to take questions, solve issues, and discuss a company's needs. A company that buys SAS software has a dedicated representative that is there for all of their needs.

Although nothing is perfect, SAS is almost there. The software can handle billions of rows of data without a glitch and runs at a quick pace regardless of what the user wants to perform. SAS products are made to handle data so performance is of their utmost important. The software is created to run things as efficiently as SAS software can to maximize performance.

I had a quick technical question prior to purchase and a live-chat CSR gave me quick and helpful advice. I appreciate being able to clarify matters via live chat and prefer that over phone calls and emails.

SAS is generally known for good support that's one of the main reasons to justify the cost of having SAS licenses within our organization is knowing that customer support is just a quick phone call away. I've usually had good experiences with the SAS customer support team it's one of the ways in which the company stands out in my view.

SAS has regional and national conferences that are dedicated to expanding users' knowledge of the software and showing them what changes and additions they are making to the software. There are user groups in most of the major cities that also provide multi-day seminars that focus on specific topics for education. If online training isn't the best way for the user, there is ample in-person training available.

There are online videos, live classes, and resource material which makes training very easy to access. However, nothing is circumstantial so applying your training can get tricky if the user is performing complex tasks. When purchasing software, SAS will also allocate education credits so the user(s) can access classes and material online to help expand their knowledge.

It was quick and easy. We found that the import from Vimeo wasn't pulling in the highest original quality so we manually uploaded our clips.

Ask as many questions you can before the install to understand the process. Since a third party does the installation your company is sort of a passanger and it is easy to get lost in the process. It also helps to have all users and IT support involved in the install to help increase the knowledge as to how SAS runs and what it needs to perform correctly.

They have all the same features and keep adding more, generating landing pages for video share was huge for us. Ease of use, no ads. cost, it really doesn't compete. We're very happy with the outputted quality of the video exports and the ability to manage DRM for video protection was built into the app. A huge bang for the buck here. Can't wait to update or try out more new features. The biggest thing I love is that they listen to their customers and work to implement suggestions from the community.

SAS was the incumbent tool, and what the team knew. We did look into using Revolution Analytics enterprise version of R, but the learning curve on that caused us to stick with SAS. In my current position, I've opted for WPS over SAS. I can still leverage my SAS experience, but the price is about 15% of what SAS charges, with extra functionality, such as direct database access. I can supplement WPS with free software, such R for anything that it might be missing.

It all depends on the type of SAS product the user has. Scaleability differs from product to product, and if the user has SAS Office Analytics the scaleability is quite robust. This software will satisfy the majority of the company's analytic needs for years to come. In addition, if SAS is not meeting the users needs the company can easily find SAS solutions that will.
