Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Simple to use and easy to implement. Coming from Vimeo and YouTube, we always found that either we didn't want ads shown on our WordPress sites for clients or Vimeo just got too expensive for the features that we have. Being able to post videos ad-free, and sharing videos that generate their own webpage was a game changer for our proposals, finally, um... it just works!! I wish I could give it a higher rating, I'm sure this company is going to get snapped up so jump in while you can. It does exactly what you wished the other big boys would do and the price is right.
Pros
  • Generate shareable links that have their own landing pages
  • Quickly upload and process video
  • Simple and advanced options to manage a ton of videos
  • Awesome API custom video player options so no need to buy a video player
Cons
  • More documentation, things works but sometimes you want more details.
  • Need more time as the amount if generous, but since it's so good you want to use it more for everything.
  • It works really well so there's nothing but nitpicking. If you have to do that then it's not that big of a deal.
Likelihood to Recommend
Not sure on the negative use case because it does exactly what I need it to do. Made client website look more professional without having ads displayed. WordPress integration was clean and simple. Shared links were a lifesaver, no need anymore for having to build a landing page. Saved hours in our workflow.

Time to move from Vimeo to Gumlet !

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are using Gumlet to host videos of our services and clients' products which we embed in various ads Landing pages to make the page load very fast and ultimately improve the user experience. We are also using Gumlet to host our various onboarding videos like new employee onboarding and new client onboarding.
Pros
  • Fast video streaming
  • CDN
  • Video Analytics
Cons
  • better bandwidth management
  • Improved Video Player UI
  • Creating video sales pages
Likelihood to Recommend
For us best best-suited scenario is for using it as a video hosting platform and embedding video on ads landing pages which makes landing pages to work more efficiently. We are also thinking of using it to host our WordPress website images on it and use it as a CDN service for our clients as well.

Solid product, even more solid team

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Gumlet for video management, hosting and to secure our assets. We embed the product into our websites, but also use it for processing of the videos, including subtitles, optimization for mobile, etc. We needed a solution to be able to embed videos, but more importantly, we were looking for a solution that also included FairPlay compatibilty, as we were publishing potentially protected videos that we did not want to be disseminated.
Pros
  • Video Processing
  • Video Optimization
  • Video Hosting
  • Video Security
  • FairPlay Support
  • Website Embedding
  • Customized / White-Label Player
Cons
  • Minor interface bugs
  • In my experience, Gumlet requires reuploading a video to reprocess
  • In my experience, integration with video production platforms are missing
Likelihood to Recommend
Gumlet is perfect to self-host your videos and to also secure them and control access. Gumlet supports Fairplay, and It also does automatic subtitling, etc. The performance of the CDN is more than acceptable, although we haven't used Gumlet yet for mass distribution. Our main need was ensuring that our content was protected and not easily copied.

Gumlet also has very flexible embedding, with a customizable player that can be whitelabeled with your brand. It was critical that we achieved brand continuity.

If you have a highly integrated workflow for publishing videos directly from production, it may not fit, as the upload process requires direct uploads after the video is produced, but this is a minor quibble and should be sufficient for a vast majority of workflows.

Glad to have switch over to Gumlet for our video hosting & streaming...

Our online coaching program delivers most of the educational content using videos. we now host over 1000's short videos using Gumlet embedded to our platform, so far no issues with streaming and quality. due to large number of videos as well as bandwidth requirement, we chose to switch to Gumlet after considering limits by other video hosting companies. the interface is pretty simple, so its quite easy to get around it. other features are a bonus, in which we haven't fully explore.
Pros
  • good customisable video player options
  • easy upload with thumbnails
  • streaming is fast
  • ability to add 'call to action' to video
Cons
  • organizing folders can be better, currently it's done as playlist
  • honestly nothing else to complain for now, maybe our use case is simple
Likelihood to Recommend
i think if you're needing huge limits number of videos & bandwidth (or even unlimited) to host your videos then this is your perfect choice. as their plans are based on video length, not by no of videos or total storage like vimeo or Wistia. the only thing for me is the lack of folders organization which is missing. this could be a turnoff for some users. for most, the starter or growth plan is more than enough. but if you want extra features like live streaming, screen recording, advance editing etc. then it's not so suitable.

What really stands out is how reliable the video streaming is—I no longer have to deal with frustrating buffering issues.
