### "Expensive but worth it"

May 5, 2022

5.0

As I mentioned, it was a fallback for us when the pandemic started, and we, like many other orgs, had to make a programming pivot into the virtual stratosphere. It's great because you can remove Vimeo branding, and the ultimate product for both our online learning and content library distro looks slick.

Pros

We utilized Vimeo Pro over the course of the pandemic to bring some of our programming online, and it worked beautifully. The ability to both share content and integrate it in virtual workshop spaces on the platform saved the organization.

Cons

It is very, very expensive. We actually had to stop using it for a bit because it just didn't fit in our budget, and YouTube was notably cheaper.

### "The cheapest and most efficient way to manage long-form video and more"

April 12, 2021

5.0

In all my years creating video content, I've never experienced an easier way to upload, view, download, or watch all of my content in one place. We uploaded all of our sermons, creative videos, promotions and more weekly without much of a problem. While it's not cheap, it's very affordable in the grand scheme of comparative software for what it does, exudes professionalism and allows for some truly breathtaking options in customizing your content. Those upload quotas can create quite the headache, though.

Pros

The seamless integration allows for quick uploads, very strong communication on the process it takes to compress, convert, and post. There are numerous privacy options, from private links to password protected videos that give the user control over their projects unlike a lot of other platforms. There's also streaming features now that open up even more doors.

Cons

The upload quotas. Unless you have at minimum this Pro plan, you're going to run into trouble from time to time. We uploaded probably 18 GB's a week and cut it close several times, and sometimes had to wait until the following week to be able to post our content. That may not be the norm, but it keeps smaller churches and companies from utilizing it due to this not being an issue on YouTube.

### "Simple Video Tool for Small Teams and Beginners"

October 14, 2022

4.0

The Pro version is really perfect and easy. The drag & drop features help me a lot. It's easy to upload videos and embed them into your website.

Pros

It has an intuitive and easy interface. Easy to understand what you can find where. I like that it saves the video quality. The password protection feature is really important and helpful for privacy.

Cons

Space is very limited for free users. It's a little bit costly.

### "Vimeo has established itself as prominent platform for Video enthusiasts"

March 4, 2024

5.0

Pros

The best features that I have noticed is its High quality video playback and Robust privacy controls it allows us to control access to specific individuals. Vimeo supports 4K and HDR videos that allows us to showcase our content in stunning details and vibrant colors. Vimeo provides the best customization options so we can personalize our video player with logos and end screens as well as brand identity.

Cons

It's free plan features is very limited and cost of the premium plan is so expensive.

### "No need to setup a media server when you have Vimeo"

April 2, 2020

5.0

While I was working in the distance education industry, migrating to the Vimeo (from Red5 media server) was the smartest decision we've ever made. By migrating to Vimeo we saved thousands of dollars.

Pros

Ease of use, very cheap prices considering problems the product is solving, user-friendly UI, support for 4K videos, fast video processing, amazing customer support, branding features, neat integration with other software, unlimited video storage.

Cons

Nothing to be honest. We have been using Vimeo as our main media storage/service since 5 years and we have been extremely happy with the product.

### "A great solution for video hosting"

April 25, 2022

5.0

Pros

If you do video marketing you need to know Vimeo, low management costs and maximum reliability

Cons

The advanced functions are only Business and Premium plans, if they also put them in the Pus and Pro plans (even limited ones) new customers would arrive

### "The best platform to upload videos"

October 31, 2019

5.0

As a video editor and independent composer, I have facilitated contact with my clients to preview the progress of the projects.

Pros

Among what I like most about this platform is the possibility of managing your content, with custom url, upload updates, privacy settings, download, etc. Personally and professionally I love it.

Cons

I can't find something negative. Vimeo has always been a solid solution with few improvements over time.

### "They provide false information and hope you don't churn"

November 16, 2021

3.0

Pros

Easy to use and reliable. We haven't had any technical issues in years

Cons

It is really annoying that they refuse to send receipts via email, even though they say they will. This is a cheeky way to reduce their churn.

### "Vimeo Review"

June 7, 2022

5.0

Vimeo has been my right hand tool in video production and I see no issues with it.

Pros

There is more flexibility of video formats saved. Easy to share it stream. There is a forum where beginners can learn more about Vimeo software. They keep their clients in mind.

Cons

Although video quality is good enough, it is relatively low when compared to other video software giants.

### "Vimeo is an Exorbitant Video Sharing Platform"

February 14, 2021

4.0

My overall experience is not good with Vimeo especially with their Customer support they are not supportive despite all that I gave 3 stars for their kindness

Pros

As far as I concerned Vimeo has easy to use user-friendly interface, Additionally, they have good quality video customizable features(like creating and record video option) comparable to other video sharing platforms.

Cons

In my experience It is expensive it cost me 900$/year for a full-featured video and as a result, after spending money I didn't even get Customer support it sucks with only canned responses, I don't think you're ever speaking with a real person via email. secondly, they are allowing video editing online I appreciate it but at least add a feature to cut videos. In short, I would not recommend Vimeo.

### "Tech support non existent "

January 8, 2020

3.0

My experience has been poor. I’ve lost my temper with tech support many times. They just don’t get it, how it should work.

Pros

Ability to make folders with passwords.

Cons

Poor tech support, slow response to customer needs, crappy app and even after you remove it from a mobile device you get prompted every time you go to play a video to download the crappy app. Inability to navigate and do all the things you do on a full browser on mobile. Slow, slow results of large showcases or folders. Needs a way to load these first as a list instead of a million images that take forever to load if you have many showcases. I could go on. I pay for many accounts that we’ve had for years and I’m tired of paying money for lack of support.

Reason for choosing Vimeo

I can’t remember, so long ago, just ability to create folders, I guess.

### "Vimeo is great, but too expensive"

August 1, 2019

3.0

I have hosted many high quality video on vimeo for years.

Pros

Vimeo has been a steadfast video hosting service for many years. The interface is slick and professional as well as reliable. Replacing video files is an excellent feature and their customization options are very valuable.

Cons

Vimeo search has always been very week. You'd have better luck searching in google using Vimeo as a keyword then you would searching within Vimeo itself. Vimeo Pro is too expensive for what you get. Even the plus is too expensive. IMO They aren't offering anything to justify that price, given the competitors on the market.

### "A good way to store videos for embedding "

August 29, 2019

4.0

We are currently using Vimeo to host non downloadable videos however the clunky UI makes uploading anything or adding new content annoying.

Pros

Vimeo is fairly inexpensive for storing videos. There is also a lot of added functionality like the ability to stop (or make it very difficult) people from downloading your videos.

Cons

For such a large software company Vimeo tends to have lots of UI bugs and a clunky overall interface.

### "Information to everybody "

December 19, 2022

5.0

a great place to look for creative references and work by very interesting people

Pros

Vimeo is a world apart for video management. the quality, efficiency and resolution it offers is incredible. the ease of storing your videos there and then being able to share them. having the possibility to leave them in private. an indispensable tool for people in the audiovisual world and many more sectors.

Cons

there is nothing bad i can say. maybe the fact that sometimes if you're not registered you can't see certain videos.

### "Vimeo Pro for selling videos online and for restricted distribution"

July 30, 2019

5.0

I sell videos online and their on demand feature makes this very easy. Additionally, I create promo videos for my services/products and I like that I can set them to be embedded only on my website. I like the idea that I can have videos without comments or ratings. Additionally, I can set the end of the video to go to a different thumbnail and make that end thumbnail clickable. It's very helpful.

Pros

The features are great: custom thumbnails, closed captioning, only embedding on certain sites, different options for when the video is complete, etc.

Cons

It's a little hard to find menu options. I think the layout has changed recently, so it's somewhat confusing trying to find options that have moved. Not horrible, just a little inconvenient.

Reason for choosing Vimeo

Youtube didn't have all the features I received with Vimeo Pro.

### "Definately consider if you want an established product, but there are other fishes to fry!"

June 30, 2021

5.0

Exceptional experience, frankly speaking, i do miss the experience with my present host, but its lighter on the pocket and for the price i can live with the experience. That said, if you would truly wish to experience hosting bliss, get Vimeo Pro, there is no second to it.

Pros

A well establish and renowned tool in the video hosting space with excellent storage, editing and hosting features combined with analytics and an amazing support team. Vimeo Pro stands out from the rest of the company as a benchmark for every aspiring video hosting company to meet.

Cons

The one reason i had to move away from vimeo was the associated price, vimeo turned out to be too pricey for my use case and had to switch out, but if price was not a factor, i would jump to vimeo without battling an eyelid.

### "Does everything you need"

August 18, 2022

5.0

Vimeo pro helps me to keep all of my media for all of my clients in a clean, reliable, functional place.

Pros

Vimeo Pro is the clean and professional video hosting I need to share information about the task at hand and my own business. I love that there are no ads or other distracting videos.

Cons

I don't like how after my video plays it says "see other videos from this user". Then it shows all the videos I have from different clients. It's hard to figure out how to turn that off.

### "the best place to find audiovisual references."

September 3, 2023

5.0

I like this site because I know that I can search for any reference or brand and find videos of different campaigns, all with great quality.

Pros

It is the only place where I can find good quality videos, there are millions of videos created by professionals of different products.

Cons

As a user, it is true that the rates in relation to capacity can be a bit low at the storage level

### "Great tool for hosting videos, Editing depends"

December 2, 2021

4.0

Overall, it is a great tool to use and easy. Also with collaboration all the options needed are available.

Pros

Vimeo is a great tool to use and is easy to set up. I mostly use it for hosting videos and analytics. Great that you can create your own branding style in it and the video stays the video. On YouTube there will always be the logo to go to the YouTube website, Vimeo does not have this and therefore people stay on your website.

Cons

You cannot just edit your own material. You need to use a theme of them. As far as I have discovered at least.

### "Vimeo pro"

May 21, 2020

4.0

The presentations looked very good for the user and after a little back and forth the main function I was hoping for was worked out by the technical team at VIMEO. The platform is usually very stable though yesterday there were some technical hiccups with their server. The customer service got better after a couple weeks. I assume they had to ramp up with Covid. All in all it did the job. Next time I will use Adobe Spark as the navigation platform and ask less of Vimeo in that regard.

Pros

Uploads are fast and easy. Private links stay forever. Visual quality is good for the user. A lot of space for 800 bucks a year. The livestream studio was my initial reason for getting it and it seemed to work pretty well but I ended up forgoing it's use due to technical issues. Mostly on our end. Being able to directly upload H264 with very little degradation was an important issue for us as a film school.

Cons

Navigation for anything but straight up watching videos is difficult to understand. The extra functions in pro are less than stellar but I was able to make it work for our presentations. Most of the the embedded functions are not usable on the VIMEO user side and can only be applied to the admin side of the platform. I still don't understand some of it but I assume that the embedded functions are for sending your videos into other platforms. websites, etc. I just wanted to present on VIMEO so none of it worked for me.

Reason for choosing Vimeo

More user control. Livestream studio. storage. video quality.

### "User friendly video uploads"

February 13, 2023

4.0

Vimeo does what it needs to. It is a great platform for our organization to upload webinar recordings and other videos related to the work that we do. It is especially great, because not everyone is available at the time of our webinars, with this people can watch at their leisure. The platform is user friendly.

Pros

It is easy to upload videos. The name of the file is carried over, and it is easy to write the descriptions, change the video thumbnail, and track the number of views.

Cons

I wish you could see all of your videos at once when opening the 'manage videos', instead of 'load more', 'load more.'
