Overall Satisfaction with Vimeo Pro
Our startup needed a place to host marketing and how-to videos for our product. Everyone on the team had access so that we could all add new videos as needed. The videos were then embedded either on our marketing site or within our application.
- Easy to add and organize your videos.
- Easy to set up team members and control permissions.
- Great, simple, configurable UI for embedding your videos.
- Doesn't auto-play the next video, or show unrelated videos to our users. This was key. I think there is some way to do this with YouTube, but it wasn't as obvious. Vimeo just did what we wanted from the start.
- I was a little hard to edit/replace an existing video. I recall we found some way to do that, but it was not at all obvious.
- Really, nothing else major that I recall.
- Provided our core functionality -- allowing us to operate our business.
- Improved our on-boarding process and success rate.
I recall that we looked at YouTube and Wistia. We were looking for a solid, no-frills solution to host and embed videos within our application, and Vimeo just seemed to do that the best, and at the best price.
