Director of Marketing & Communications
4.0

Dayna T.: My name is Dayna. I'm the director of marketing and communications at a small marketing firm where we provide a slew of marketing solutions. I give Vimeo four out of five stars. I considered using YouTube instead of Vimeo, but I ended up going in a different direction because, at that time, YouTube didn't offer as much creative freedom as Vimeo does. I wound up using Vimeo because it's very easy to use and it was cost-effective for me starting out as a new creator; you really don't have much money or time or expertise, and it was a great way to get started in that business. Getting started with Vimeo was very simple. All you have to do is set up an account, log in, and you're able to upload and edit videos with ease. I also found it very simple to use for webinars and online events. I recommend that you give Vimeo a try. It's great for creating and publishing videos with ease. It's also extremely user-friendly, and it does have quality customer service that you can reach out to if you do need to get some additional help.
