Excellent hosting solution for marketing/promotional videos and technical/support screencasts
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Upload and updating videos is a breeze and with the setting options, I can easily set the view/ads/embed options and privacy so I can control who and where people can view these videos, especially if we need to share a secure video with a client. Also extremely easy to set thumbnail, upload captions, and organize videos into collections.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing downside I've seen in the past is finding my videos, but it seems I was looking in the wrong place and kept forgetting to go to the Manage Videos dropdown menu next to the Vimeo logo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hosting videos to be shown on multiple product marketing and help center sites, and securely sending videos with confidential info to clients using the passcode option.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are wondering whether you should self-host videos or use a video hosting solution such as Vimeo, it would be in your best interest to choose Vimeo. With the security considerations as well as the infrastructure to deliver your content fast and effortlessly, in addition to accessibility options, VImeo is an excellent choice.
Easiest video upload around!
What do you like best about the product?
We use Vimeo in our office at least once a week to share psa's with our members so they can air on their broadcast stations and we have never had an issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really, honestly can't think of anything I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our association generates public service announcements and vimeo cuts out the need for a third party that we would have needed to create a shareable link.
Still the Best option for Video File Management and Distribution
What do you like best about the product?
Vimeo is by far the best value for money when it comes to storage and delivery of video files. From SD to 4K Vimeo has me covered and when you look at the annual pricing tiers plus the zero (0) streaming fees it makes a wonderful 'back end' for online education, video on demand, and subscriber based platform networks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Vimeo's interface can get a bit of getting used to. It's great for folks who plan to upload and stream a documentary or create a small portfolio of films for their resume or business, but when you get into the hundreds or thousands of clips online you need to make sure (as I have done) that you create an archiving system for your films. Unfortunately this means that searching for clips involves the clip title as Vimeo does not allow hidden file names so you have to get used to seeing numerical elements in your titles if you plan to go that route. Otherwise it's a great product with great streaming quality.
Also -- due to Vimeo being used extensively by documentary film producers where the subject matter can be controversial or negatively seen from political regimes, it is often blocked in 3rd world countries such as Indonesia so bear this in mind if you plan to service those markets -- you would be better off using Youtube which although has it's own sets of pro's and con's is available for viewing in more markets than Vimeo.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We deliver streaming video to artists around the world. The front end is an online platform, which was developed by a UK based company, the payment gateway is Paypal, and the 'back end' or video archive is Vimeo. It is a robust solution.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Bear in mind its limitations on streaming in some international markets, and its suitability for archival solutions compared to Youtube. Perhaps as we have done, maintain content on both Youtube and Vimeo in order to gain the benefits of both worlds.
Vimeo Review - Love it
What do you like best about the product?
Super cool website with access to a lot of interesting, educational material. Super easy to create your own videos as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really. The site is user friendly and easy to use. Can turn you into a videographer even if you have never created a video on your own before.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating videos.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely consider it. There are great tutorials for new users and the site is very simple to use.
LiveStream Review
What do you like best about the product?
LiveStream has been perfect for our business, which produces thousands of pages of video content, and has a livechat room that our thousands of members love.
What do you dislike about the product?
As they add upgrades, it has made some tech issues arise with privacy, titling, and ability to download. What we dislike the most is how difficult it is to search the recordings inside of LiveStream.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We mass produces large amounts of videos, and so we need a both a producer studio as well as the continued streaming. We also use LS for our chatroom and it works very well. We've been with LS the entire three years in business.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When LiveStream joins with Vimeo, it will hopefully result in the best of both worlds...all the things we like about LS and Vimeo and none of the things we don't. We are very hopeful about that merger.
Perfect and secure video platform
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using this platform since my university studies. All my university work and the professionals, when I had to edit them on video, I have always uploaded them on this platform because the quality is unbeatable.
I have always noticed that it is much better than other video platforms like Youtube. In vimeo the quality of image, the one of ascent of videos and especially because the contents tend to be more professional.
As for the upload of videos to the platform, I've never had problems. They have always been uploaded correctly and over the years faster.

What do you dislike about the product?
At the beginning of the platform, if I remember correctly, I think you did not have to subscribe to a plan and have to pay to enjoy all the content.
Now I do not like it that much because it asks you to pay for a plan if you want to enjoy many of its advantages. From my point of view they have lost a lot on this issue since not everyone can afford to pay a plan.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my company it served us for the explanation of programs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before starting to use this platform, it is important to know that to enjoy all the advantages you have to pay for a plan.
Without paying you can enjoy the basic advantages, but it is obvious that paying even the smallest plan, you start to enjoy.
Even so, it is worth using this platform due to the high image quality that the videos have

Allows me to upload a meaningful amount of video, and make it public. Much as one can do on YouTube.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, really. You can monetize your content over Vimeo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Video distribution. Can make video available to a different audience from YouTube. Useful if you are being censored on other video distribution platforms.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it.
