Bambuser
Chose Bambuser
Used the Douglas live streaming feature many a times, very very similar experience and not much of a difference, but like the fact that Bambusers streaming is smoother, would love to see Bambusers live stream on many brands as well as other 1-1 features which help the introvert …
Vimeo Enterprise
Chose Vimeo Enterprise
Vimeo is awesome because it is a seamless experience that blends software and a cloud platform and end user experience. No other competitor offers a holistic solution the way Vimeo does. With other platforms you have to piece together multiple pieces of hardware and software …
Chose Vimeo Enterprise
Screencast-O-Matic isn't listed as an option in the similar products I've used, but their features are similar. I found that they didn't allow enough customization of display for my use within my program.

I had initially used Google Drive to host the videos but found that the …
Chose Vimeo Enterprise
We chose Vimeo Live over StreamGuys as the yearly subscription model is much more flexible for our budget situation. The ease of use of the Broadcaster in Vimeo Live also reduced the amount of technical assistance required during events. The flexibility of embedding Vimeo Live …

I think Bambuser is well suited in a scenario when there are specific trends in the fashion and cosmetics industries about a product and people want to know what the hype is about, streaming videos about such products give a clarity of the product and a good decision making ability to the users to buy it or not

Although there is room for improvement, it is a fantastic service and I would suggest this to many clients. In fact, I already have and overall they're happy with it. It does what is needed, has impressive features in the free version as well as the Plus version, and they seem to truly listen to what their clients want for features. They're head and shoulders above the competition with delivering a service that works (unlike other mentioned) along with having a slick end product. I'm so happy that I moved over to Vimeo

The layout is inconsistent for different parts of the platform, it takes a very long time to find specific settings. Labels aren't clear sometimes - not to the first-time/average user. They actually just changed the interface with zero warning or tooltips and had to contact support to get it back to the version our teachers are familiar with.

Generally Vimeo is fast to respond to support tickets with more or less the answer to the question/problem with documentation and clarity in the answer. Usually only takes on message to solve the issue.

Vimeo is awesome because it is a seamless experience that blends software and a cloud platform and end user experience. No other competitor offers a holistic solution the way Vimeo does. With other platforms you have to piece together multiple pieces of hardware and software and even with those pieces you don't get the same ease of use and performance that Vimeo gives you with their software and cloud solution

  • As a University we view this as way to include a larger community in our events and ROI is not direct.
  • We moved from a pay per event streaming service to a yearly subscription with Vimeo Live and our usage has increased as departments don't have to consider the cost of each event.
