"Vimeo"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

With Vimeo there is a place that we can store all of our services in sequential order. We can save services to separate "pages" depending on how we label them. With the paid subscription, we are able to upload up to 20GB of videos each week which is more than adequate for our needs.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I wish the process for uploading the videos were just a little quicker. I do understand that these videos are sometimes 5GB which can take some time, but it just seems like it could be a little shorter. You can upload more than one video at a time; however it uploads it in a preset order rather than how you might want them uploaded.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to upload all of our videos to access at anytime on this site which frees up space on our storage drives here at the church. We are able to embed any video into our website and give them their own descriptions and titles.

"Victorious vimeo"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I love the interface that displays my videos. I feel that it is much more pleasing to the eye than YouTube.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I dislike that the embedded email video is a terribly large file size making even the shortest clip too large to use this fantastic feature.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have the best alternative to YouTube and direct most all of my traffic to view my vimeo first. The subscription service feature also opened the door to being able to monetize in a way that outshines YouTube.

"Best solution for hosting, streaming and, now, creating video."
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Ease to embed into websites, useful configuration tools for both live streaming and player embedding; RTMP features open new opportunities for simulcasts.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Not being able to "edit" online since new features allow only to trim. Also, trimmed videos replace the originals, instead of being saved as a new one. Also, Studio is limited regarding gfx abilities.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Simultaneous streaming is sort of solved since a premium account allows at least two events streamed at once. Individual RTMP URL per event is also convenient for multi-channel live streaming.

"Best option for video hosting"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Vimeo is an affordable and efficient way to store and host my company's video projects. Its tools let me embed videos on my websites while customizing the interaction options.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

There's actually nothing I dislike about Vimeo. It's a better hosting and embedding option than YouTube and is significantly more affordable than other options on the market.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's a safe place to store video projects, but it's also a great way to host videos that I embed on my websites. The customization tools let me change color options to match branding, add calls-to-action on videos, and a varity of privacy settings. It also syncs with my caption provider, making that process pretty much as easy as it can be.

"All in one video marketing solution!"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I love that I now only need one subscription for my video marketing needs. Not only do I have a place to upload and host my videos, but the marketing tools and analytic capabilities are great. I absolutely LOVE the review feature. Previously I would have had to subscribe to Frame.io or a similar video review tool, but I am so thankful that Vimeo includes this as part of their Pro Plan. The other feature that I use frequently is Showcases. This makes it incredibly easy to create collections of client work for an elegant way to present final deliverables.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I don't love that Showcases can't be private. It would be great if we could create a private showcase for sensitive or unreleased client work.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vimeo helps me to host, market, review, and deliver my video content to my clients.

Ease of use, navigation and configuration. Secure access.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Nothing. It is easy to use. I wish it integrated with more applications like Silver Chair to serve up video content within our digital library.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Vimeo, we now have a common platform for serving up and storing video.

"Secure Video Platform"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Easy to use. Rich video information and many options for the video to be published or to have it private. Secure, you can protect your media with a password. You can enable or disable the download button. Many more features, like Vimeo live and Vimeo channels. Sharing and embedding options. Processing a video is like a charm, and it encodes the video with multiple resolutions for the best quality and speed.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I want to see more controls in the player.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am uploading large videos for online streaming, like film screenings.

"My favorite Video Hosting App for working with clients."
What do you like best about Vimeo?

We do video editing for clients and use the review function the most. It allows us to share videos with our clients and they can make comments on the timeline - helping our editors clearly understand what they need to change. Really awesome. Once edits are made, the editor replaces the video and the client can toggle between the previous version with their time-stamped comments and the current version to check edits. Works like a charm

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

It is not exactly cheap but it is worth it.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main problem we are solving is client communication. Although we really started using Vimeo to host our videos because Youtube started showing the other video ads at the end of their videos. We embed many videos on websites and really do not appreciate having some competitor's video pop up when a visitor finished watching ours. But after we started using it we found the review function and it changed our workflow completely.

"Vimeo for Hosting Videos on websites"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Vimeo is very convenient to use for all video hosting services. Vimeo is used as a video hosting tool for embedding videos on various websites. The key advantage of Vimeo is that it can display videos without any advertisments or related/suggested videos. Vimeo is also very easy to implement, the embedded code for the videos can be obtained from the same page as the video itself and its easy to edit/modify to make it according to the various requirements that we need.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Vimeo is at times glitchy in the implementation. Also the UI is not as attractive and user friendly as other platforms like YouTube. For most queries you can get support online. There is also a limit on the video hosting service as Vimeo is a freemium service which requies you to subscribe after a certain stage. Overall compared to YouTube, Vimeo has its advantages and disadvantages in its use and implementation

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Vimeo as a platform for hosting videos and embedding them on various websites. It is also helpful in adding videos without additional clutter like advertisments and related videos which are present in YouTube. Also its pretty convinient to use Vimeo to add and play embedded videos in a loop.

"A Great Solution for Video Live Streaming and more!"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Embedding videos is so simple, changing your audience to only domains that you choose, live streaming. You can't get a better video service than Vimeo!

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Nothing! It's such a user-friendly, reliable service to use.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Compared to YouTube live streaming, Vimeo is much simpler to set up and embed on a website. Also, being able to show Vimeo videos only on certain domains is a huge benefit.

"Great for video hosting"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Our favorite thing about Vimeo is the video quality and custom touches that you can add to the video player and public-facing account page

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I'm not a huge fan of their pricing model and the upload limits depending on the tier.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was using vimeo to send client-ready review files but frame.io has become a much better solution. We use our vimeo pro account to host videos.

"Vimeo is best in class video hosting."
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Vimeo let's you start for free and remain free for a long time. When it's time to upgrade, the upgrade options are reasonably priced. Vimeo On Demand is a great service also.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Vimeo doesn't have a main website portion for users like YouTube does. It's focussed on creators and not viewers. It could improve on this and have both creator and non-creator accounts.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vimeo is video hosting. It's great of you want a YouTube alternative but it has its negatives and positives when compared to YouTube.

"Easy to Use Video Creations"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

What I like best about Vimeo is how easy it is to create and send videos to friends and family. Also, how you can create videos for business as well, I am relatively new to using Vimeo, but I can see its value. My clients love it too.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I want the Video Basic to have a more extensive weekly mb usage. I think that the more Vimeo gets exposure, the more business will be generatated.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem solved with Vimeo is that it is straightforward to use, and you can explain it readily to clients, and they appreciate the application better

"Best private video Hosting"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Speed, Catalog, Search and editable options. Awesome interface. Super Reliable. The review links are so helpful. Comments and version control right on the review link is vital. The playback quality is superior to everything we tested.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I dislike that some companies have web filter against all vimeo.com links this results in us being blocked, we bypass it by using vimeopro.com. Another thing that can vimeo needs is a caption/subtitle auto generator.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Version Control, Client sharing, Hosting, MultiDevice access. Remote Work among editors is easier. Also hosting all our final projects.

"Wonderful video watching experience on Vimeo"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

The best thing about Vimeo is the audience is a bit mature and feedback is more on the mature side. Vimeo doesn’t have advertisements as their focus is not on making money from advertising which is a serious turn off when watching videos. You won’t see adds before videos or in the middle of any video. You will never be overwhelmed by unwanted adds while watching videos on Vimeo. You can easily download videos and watch them offline later. You can update any video once it has been published and you can still keep the stats of your previous video. All of the view count, statistics, likes and comments will still remain as they were there in a previous version. You can simply replace a video with an improved version of your video. It doesn’t disable your video as it’s not that strict but you have to be careful.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

The only thing that I dislike about Vimeo is that it doesn’t have too much of free storage.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

The best feature on Vimeo has is that you can put a password on your videos if you don’t want it to be seen by anyone else beside your clients. A password protected video will only been seen if you have a password. You can simply share the link to the video and share the password. And if you don’t want anybody to add comments to your video, you can do that as well. Similarly, you can also restrict viewers from downloading your videos if you don’t want it to be downloaded.

"I love Vimeo Create!"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I love the ability to store video files and to create short marketing videos using Vimeo Create.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

The cost of Vimeo Create and the fact that you can't pay monthly for this service.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was looking for an easy-to-use marketing video-creation software, that would allow me to create short videos for my business. Vimeo Create does just that, and it has enabled me to easily create professional-looking marketing videos for my business.

"I haven't found better for the money"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

Video quality and the fact that they are always improving and providing new options.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

Sometimes they change things for the worse.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a PRO level member, I use Vimeo to embed videos into my own website, as well as providing videos to clients for review. As a long time user, early on Vimeo blew competition out of the water being affordable and customizable, and it remains true today. Since then they've added so many features that I use it for client review, and delivery of final videos. I was able to cancel a different monthly membership because Vimeo added the same features I was paying a different platform $15/month for. The analytics options are huge. Although I dislike some the changes that have been made to this feature, it's still very valuable and provides insights to how my website is doing beyond typical web analytics. There are other features I use--creating showcases, licensing music, and being listed in the "for hire" section--but those are less important to me. Vimeo is also my go-to website when looking for inspiration or industry related tutorials.

"Vimeo plays videos with high resolution"
What do you like best about Vimeo?

I like being able to upload videos that don't contain ads and other distracting elements that can take our viewers focus away. The price for the upgrade is good compared to additional hosting costs associates with high quality video streams. The look of Vimeo is minimal and more professional than other popular video hosting solutions. I like the extensive options we get such as embedding and disabling video suggestions at the end of our video's playback.

What do you dislike about Vimeo?

I haven't run into substantial issues with the performance of our Vimeo videos. If I wanted to make it better, I would probably add more advanced editing features that could give us the same caption control and effects quality that YouTube editing tools have.

What problems is Vimeo solving and how is that benefiting you?

For a competitive price, we can use Vimeo to publish web videos that are easy to access through our website, Facebook and through the Vimeo website. We can add keywords in our title and description to have them pop up more frequently in related Google searches. We can also add links that can allow viewers to learn more about our services and other business items.
