### "Exceptional video hosting service."

January 22, 2025

5.0

I need to point out the high cost of subscribing to a monthly service just to enable DRM. However, Gumbler offers an affordable video hosting service with built-in DRM. This eliminates the need for third-party services and saves a significant amount of money. Additionally, the fast loading speeds mean there is no extra stress on my website server and hosting. This is truly a deal you shouldn't miss. It's one of the best all-in-one video hosting and DRM solutions available right now.

Pros

The CDN and hosting speed for the video courses are extremely fast, which enables my students to learn without technical hindrance. Another point to consider is that most video hosting services tend to limit their service by storage space. However, Gamlet uses time duration as a measurement. I believe this is a better approach because it allows me to always upload videos at the highest quality without concerns. Using duration as a metric is a much better option than having to sacrifice and compromise on quality.

Cons

If we could customize and desgin our playlist page, that will be awesome!

### "Solid and good alternative to Vimeo"

December 1, 2025

5.0

Coming from Vimeo Plus, I actually made the steps to move to Gumlet before Vimeo suddenly increased the amount of space in their Plus subscription. As I was already in midst of moving files and embeds over to Gumlet, I continued and honestly the process was pretty easy. For me, it's a good alternative to Vimeo.

Pros

\- Clear interface, easy to use. - Uploading was excellent, especially with the multiple import options for bulk import. - Not unique to Gumlet, but the ability to customize the (majority) look and feel of the player is great, especially with custom logo and color set.

Cons

\- Maybe I'm overseeing things, but I miss the option to organize the video's in multiple directories within a single directory (with parent > child directories). - The player itself does not seem to be localized, the controls seem to be fixed to English.

### "Show your protected videos quickly but wish for more protection"

March 5, 2025

4.0

Like how it fills the gap for most video and image hosting usage and it's fast to load and the customer support is responsive.

Pros

Ease of use, the UI is easy to understand and support is awesome! You can upload, protect and live a video within minutes!

Cons

While they protect the popular Google Widevine and Apple Fairplay DRM with dynamic watermarking, wish there are more protection like forensic watermarking and multilayered drms.

### "Personal video repository with customised controls"

December 5, 2025

5.0

Its an enterprise grade video hosting tool which is not for those who are not going to be seriously investing in creating and publishing videos for a living. If you are, this could be harnessed well.

Pros

Its a great back up from relying fully on YouTube, which is a huge fear for most creators who depend on it to send out their offers.

Cons

wish their subscribers feature on running channels was more affordable. Apart from that, there is very little to fault them with much.

### "Easy Video Sharing"

December 4, 2024

5.0

I found Gumlet to be very affordable compared to other services and that the way they organize clips helped me organize my collection

Pros

Gumlet makes is convenient to upload and share video material. I like that I can just drag and drop a clip and in a few minutes have a viewing page that I can share with a client or if I choose to do so an embed code for a website.

Cons

I found the streaming resolution can be reduced at times especially at the very start of a clip but once it starts playing the quality is very good.

Overall, Gumlet offers control of a lot of features that I didn't consider prior to the platform. The drm, ad serve, cname and channel creation ability similar to youtube is great.

Pros

I most like how smoothly videos play on my website when embedded from Gumlet.

Cons

I least like that the live streaming doesn't allow you to schedule events in advance.

Excellent customer service, frequent updates, a dev team with clear vision, and a price which small businesses can grow with. Gumlet is a serious new leader in the world of professional streaming video.

We have just began the transition from Vimeo to Gumlet and believe the abilities and user interface is more pleasing.

Pros

It has a robust ability in a very organized fashion to store various videos the user interface is very clean and intuitive.

Cons

It would be unfair for me to say anything in detail as I am still implementing this platform into our business. If I had to mention anything it would be to aware as with most software, there is a bit of a learning curve.

### "The video hosting tool I've been waiting for"

November 26, 2024

5.0

I've tried a few video hosting tools but this one really stands out the best! The user interface is really great and easy to navigate - not clunky at all. You can import videos from various sources which is a time saver. I love that it's mobile optimised as I use my phone for a lot of my content. Embedding videos is a breeze and the videos play smoothly with no issues like buffering. I like the analytics too - great to see what my users like (and don't like so much)!

Pros

Tough to pick one. I'd say the ease of use! I don't have to keep reminding myself where things are and how to navigate everytime I need to use it.

Cons

The limits are not on the generous side but the pricing allows for an upgrade if I ever need more bandwidth etc

November 25, 2024

I am very happy with Gumlet. It solves my two problems. I am a course creator, I want to host my videos and also prevent them from downloading. Secondly, I create sales videos for my landing pages and funnels. If I host them on YouTube, it shows ads in the end. Gumlet solves both of my problems.

Pros

Gumelt's user interface clean and it is easy to get started. It provides multiple layers of security for your videos so that people can not download it or do screen recording.

Cons

Gumlet has a dark mode but you can not switch it on or off. It automatically turns on based on your system settings.
