    It's more adapted to our main use cases.

    Vimeo has a more secure hosting environment than Facebook Live. We can push to Facebook from Vimeo, so that eliminated the need for Facebook alone. YouTube has too many ad interactions, and too many suggested videos on the sidebar, so the Vimeo site has a cleaner and more …

    It is a similar alternative to Vimeo. It is a cloud-based video platform that offers a suite of tools for businesses to manage, deliver, and monetize their video content.

    Vimeo is more reasonably priced and a little more user-friendly. Plus, I like the look of it and that I can use it at a price that doesn't break the bank for a small business like mine. It seems to have more features than these other platforms, so you don't have to have so many …

    We have used You Tube, but do not like that an add for ANYTHING may pop up before your video plays. In a setting where there are parents/families or members of our leadership group this can and has led to some very awkward moments that we have had to try and laugh off.

    The only thing was the ability to stream pre-recorded videos hosted on Vimeo which recently totally failed to deliver and that's why we are leaving.

    The privacy guarantees and assurances provided by Vimeo was the key factor in choosing Vimeo.

    Cinesend is a MUCH slicker platform. It integrates well with our website, and provides a much better branded experience. It costs slightly less, and provides much better access to information and user control.

    If you have a reasonable level of website knowledge in your company, …

    Youtube does not have the ability to livestream from anything other than your computer unless you have more than 1,000 subscribers. Vimeo on the other hand allow you to livestream from mobile, camera etc, you just have to subscribe.

    Wistia does not have livestream capability.

    We are currently looking at Dacast as an alternative option to Vimeo for many obvious reasons. However, we have not tried Dacast yet, we will be doing a free trial next week. While they offer a lower storage that Vimeo, and cost about 400 more per year than Vimeo, they offer …

    Vimeo leaves ClickMeeting in the dust when comparing compatibility on social media and other platforms. Vimeo has also been proven to be much more customizable. In ClickMeeting for example, video formatting may be changed if a certain font is not recognized by ClickMeeting. It …

    We publish our films to Vimeo and YouTube, but our films come first to Vimeo by way of Frame.io, which is our client editing platform. The videos move over from Frame.io to Vimeo effortlessly, with longer films moving slowly and shorter films moving quickly. After the films are …

    For our business applications, the primary competitor to Vimeo is YouTube, although Dailymotion is arguably a competitor for some of our business applications, though not others. The most complete full-featured competitor for our business use cases is YouTube, and I think Vimeo …

    We also use YouTube to publish our films, but that is more for SEO sake than for everyday use. Vimeo is the primary way we share films whether via the direct URL or by sharing the video link on our social media.

    Dropbox takes much longer to upload than Vimeo. Vimeo is much more user-friendly and allows for more customization.

    Chose Vimeo
    We also use Youtube to host our videos, but rely principally on Vimeo for hosting them to our site and sharing them with others. Vimeo has a great feature where it allows you to update a video if you ever make changes to it. While the video file changes, the URL and all embeds …

    Similar in nature. Integration with MAP and SFDC were a bit more built out and native with Wistia. Folder management is on par with both.

    Vimeo is best suited for internal video sharing and proofing as well as video storage for creatives, such as video editors and marketers. I think most organizations who need a simple, lightweight access-controlled video sharing platform should use Vimeo since it is easy enough …

    Chose Vimeo
    We've tried YouTube in the past, and it's just not as good as Vimeo. Vimeo is a software that's built for professionals. And while it doesn't have the "marketability" of Youtube, it looks and FEELS better than a traditional YouTube setting, which is quickly becoming a platform …

    Chose Vimeo
    YouTube was the platform we primarily used previously, after having restrictions and having locked out of a couple of accounts we needed a better platform. We also lost some of our videos. We also have an internal app to track client videos and Vimeo supported it better. With …

    The only competitor we've used to Vimeo is YouTube. Both offer embedded players, basic view counts, etc... but Vimeo has (in my opinion) easier customization for embed options, security features, and thumbnail selection. Youtube has a better recommendation system and the …

    In higher ed we have a couple of options that integrate directly with our LMS (Blackboard/Canvas) that are comparable. Kaltura is outstanding but it's very expensive whereas I've found Viddler(and YouTube) to be much more simplistic. I've worked with other tools that want to …

    I recall that we looked at YouTube and Wistia. We were looking for a solid, no-frills solution to host and embed videos within our application, and Vimeo just seemed to do that the best, and at the best price.

    We use Zoom for a lot of recordings (webinars, videos, etc.) but it doesn't stack up to Vimeo Pro in terms of features and functionality. So we just use Zoom for recording purposes now.

    Chose Vimeo
    In my opinion, Vimeo Pro beats these competing products hands down because it has customizable features and just for video. The other services treat your videos only as files (indistinguishable from other file types except by their extension and preview). The ability to offer …
