### "Vidyard is great"

December 3, 2019

5.0

Great. It has helped us connect with customers in an industry where it can be challenging to allocate time to training and software setup.

Pros

I would recommend vidyard to anyone. We use it for creating training videos for our support team as well as quick customer screen captures for client training. Love the chrome extension, once set up, super easy.

Cons

Not a lot. I wish the link for the video and the link in the web browser were the same but i am sure there is reasoning why they aren't

### "Makes Sales Easier"

December 22, 2017

5.0

The system is easy to use and it does what I need it to do. I highly recommend it.

Pros

We're in the SaaS world and the people that we target are people don't always want to get on the phone unless they have to. So this is a great way to make emails more personable and allows us to not have such lengthy emails. I would recommend it to anyone that is in software sales.

### "Vidyard EO"

April 19, 2022

4.0

I am preparing videos more carefully by looking at the analysis.

Pros

I can see the analysis of the videos much better. In this way, I can prepare better videos.

Cons

The site crashes while making some videos. My videos are wasted

### "Great business tool for Sales & Marketing"

January 5, 2017

4.0

Vidyard is a great business tool for Sales and Marketing teams to use video in a way that contributes to revenue. Adding Salesforce integration is vital to a) sales reps using video content b) demonstrating the # value video actually contributes to the bottom line.

Pros

Easy to use, integrations with Sales/Marketing tools, great for producers to get insight into how their videos are being consumed

Cons

Would like more options in reporting

### "Convenient screen recording "

September 22, 2023

5.0

Pros

I really found vidyard easy to use. It's really well integrated into google chrome. Exporting and sharing videos is easy.

Cons

I don't like how you are restricted by the quality of your export. Which is a shame because some of our videos needed higher resolution.

### "Not that compelling "

February 24, 2021

5.0

Really great but frankly not worth the money and hard to justify

Pros

There are so many cute features—gif thumbnails, and it’s easy to use and deploy. The customer service is really great too.

Cons

It didn’t deliver much value. We really didn’t close more deals because of it. Loom is free so that’s what we kept.

### "Best videos for quick tips"

October 12, 2020

5.0

Vidyard has been a great solution for making it easy to show our customers how to do specific actions on our platform.

Pros

I love the ease of sharing my screen and easily capturing what I am demonstrating in my product. I also like the search feature and being able to embed videos.

Cons

The trimming tool only works at the end instead of inside the video which would be more helpful. And the version I have I don't have folders.

### "Embed videos in emails"

April 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love using Vidyard to connect with prospects. The embedded GIF in emails is my new favorite feature.

Cons

Sometimes it freezes when I am trying to save a video- it is frustrating to have to re-record it again.

### "Prospecting at the next level"

December 16, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like Vidyard as a new, fun way to engage prospects with video. Great visibility into when and how much prospects see.

Cons

Video isn't a surefire way to convert. The UI is nice, but the layout is also not helpful - I have a hard time navigating to my videos, and figuring out how to convert to a gif, etc.

### "Great for recording instructions"

October 19, 2019

5.0

Pros

Although it has many powerful tools, my favorite part of vidyard is the chrome extension that allows me to record my screen and narrate instructions to explain clients how to create fixes online

Cons

To be honest it just hard coming up with something I dislike as I have had great experience so far

### "My customers love my videos!"

March 27, 2019

4.0

I use Vidyard to answer customer questions and it works!

Pros

I love being able to answer a question with a video. It is much easier to create a quick video on how to use our product than to type out a reply. Furthermore, my clients have told me that they love my videos.

Cons

I wish I could create folders for my videos so searching would be easier.

### "The best option for screen capture and demo videos"

December 31, 2020

5.0

Pros

So easy to use and setup. The chrome extension make it easy to record and send videos right from your browser. We use it for client outreach to make personal introduction videos, which always get a better response than normal test emails. The best part is you get a much more generous recording time than Loom on the free plan, but upgrading to paid open up all the analytics you need to see how many people have viewed your videos which is super helpful for sales teams.

Cons

Some of the high end paid plans are a little expensive, but the benefits are there to see. A must-have tool for teams that do lots of demos for clients or for sales teams to make personalised videos for outreach

### "Vidyard review"

August 24, 2018

5.0

It has been a pleasure. It adds another element to my emails that makes it interactive and personal, which my customers enjoy.

Pros

I love the fact that it is a new interactive way to communicate with customers. Adding a personal message to customers with an insightful video is awesome.

Cons

It took me a little bit of time to get comfortable with the features and functions. Once I became comfortable with the software it became very useful.

### "Take some time to get familiar"

November 15, 2019

4.0

Needed some professional help to get it setup at first, due to unfamiliar with the terminology used in the software.

Pros

Upload of video seems pretty fast and the service rarely becomes unavailable. The uploaded video very 'portable' for use on different online platform like SharePoint and Lithium.

Cons

Buttons and labeling in the user interface not always make sense. Folder structures also take time to get used to.

### "Great tool for sales, marketing andcustomer success"

July 29, 2021

4.0

Very positive thus far - I'm a relatively new user and may try out the paid features - am comparing it to loom right now

Pros

Vidyard is easy to "install" easy to use - works/integrates with hubspot and other sales & marketing tools

Cons

Wish the branding feature was free - you have to upgrade for this feature to enhance viewer experience

### "Incredibly easy screen-cap software for creating training videos"

April 10, 2018

5.0

I am able to share best practices with remote users without having to schedule skype or zoom calls with each person. This saves me a lot of time.

Pros

I love how Vidyard is free. I use it to screen capture my actions to share with people outside of my office, so they can see how to do specific things. It's incredibly easy to use and it has been totally hassle-free.

Cons

I have no negative issues to report with Vidyard. As I use a free version and it does everything I want it to, I am totally satisfied.

### "A tool that's simple to learn and great to use"

February 7, 2022

5.0

Vidyard has provided an easy way for me to personalize my interactions with clients without having to schedule a virtual meeting.

Pros

It is incredibly easy to set up, sync to your mailbox, and record videos. Almost no training required.

Cons

The editing features are very minimal. But for a free product, I certainly am not complaining.

### "Putting a face (and voice) to a name"

September 11, 2019

4.0

I really appreciate the ease of use and the ability to communicate more effectively.

Pros

There are so many tools and uses for Vidyard. If you want to take your communication to the next level - this is a must!

Cons

There's so much functionality that some times I forget what is possible and leave potential on the table.

### "Decent Outreach Tool"

July 4, 2021

3.0

Pros

I liked being able to customize videos to send to prospects.

Cons

It seems like Vidyard was not a fully fleshed out tool (circa 2019). The tool would not allow me to make edits or revisions to an existing recording - rather it would only allow me to record one video and then have to delete it and re-record a new one. I spent an entire Sunday making customized videos for about 25 prospects and even after all of that effort had no return on that investment as no prospects responded.

August 31, 2021

Very positive, prospects love getting a customized video tailored to their needs.

Pros

It's so easy to screen record and send high-quality videos customized for individual prospects.

I don't find anything about using vidyard frustrating, it's a well rounded tool.

### "Great way to change up a message"

May 6, 2021

5.0

Easy and great. I love you can use your computer or shoot a video via their app if you want to be out and about.

Pros

I love using Vidyard. I have the free version which is still great to make a quick and easy video to send a perspective buyer as a way to get their attention better compared to an email.

Cons

I wish to get the really key features you didn't have to spend $300 a month. Even if they could add more products to their lower costing plan.

### "Free version, easy to use, great way to stand out in email, friendly customer support."

May 20, 2018

5.0

Increased lead generation. Easier to personalize emails. Simple video customer support.

Pros

Chrome plug-in makes it so there are just a few clicks to create a video, and it doesn't take you far out of your normal Chrome/Gmail routine. Free version is as good of a value as you'll get. Quality of screen recording is high.

Cons

Not many complaints. A few more robust annotation tools for the videos would be nice, but it doesn't need much more.

### "Great product!"

February 10, 2021

4.0

Overall Vidyard is an easy-to-use tool that drastically helps our sales team to stand out from the crowd.

Pros

I like how easy it is to record your screen and make videos. It makes it so easy to explain complex things. I can either explain it in a video, or share my screen and show them. All they have to do is click a link!

Cons

Sometimes when I include a Vidyard link in my email it ends up in the spam folder of the recipient. I haven't yet found a fix for this.
