Overall Satisfaction with Vimeo

We use Vimeo as the place to house all our video content that we share out to potential students and their families as well as current students. By using Vimeo we are able to avoid having ads from competing institutions come before our video pieces. There was nothing more frustrating than having another school's ad play before our piece.

Pros

  • Allows for ad free viewing
  • Easy to upload
  • Easy to link to

Cons

  • Sometimes when trying to upload from a mobile phone it can be clunky and hard to accomplish.
  • Uploads can also be slow on desktop
  • Ad Free
  • Ease of learning to use platform
  • It has been a positive although we don't really track the ROI for this platform
We have used You Tube, but do not like that an add for ANYTHING may pop up before your video plays. In a setting where there are parents/families or members of our leadership group this can and has led to some very awkward moments that we have had to try and laugh off.

Do you think Vimeo delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Vimeo's feature set?

Yes

Did Vimeo live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Vimeo go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Vimeo again?

Yes

It is best suited for organizations that do not want to have ads pop up before their video if they are connecting to these videos on other social media platforms. There are times when uploads are going slow or when it is hard to upload from a mobile device which makes doing my job a bit more difficult.
