Vimeo's live streaming platform delivers a full HD viewing experience ad-free with custom branding and graphics straight from your browser. You can use chat, polls, and moderated Q&A to grab your viewers’ attention while simulcasting to social and apps or RTMP.

As the industry standard for online video hosting, Vimeo allows you to host, manage, and share your videos in HD, or even 4K HDR, all from the Vimeo website. No matter what type of plan you’re on, from Free to Enterprise, Vimeo never put ads before, during, or after your video. Period.

But Vimeo lets you go beyond just watching video with a new suite of interactive tools. Now you can engage your viewers by adding interactive touchpoints to your videos that encourage viewers to engage more deeply with your content. Choose from sticky hotspots or informational overlays to produce shoppable videos, training quizzes or brand marketing videos.

Vimeo lets users publish content across Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and other social media networks. It includes a centralized dashboard, which allows businesses to gain insight into content engagement, conversions, and more via analytics. Plus, it integrates with various many of the applications you use such as Asana, Dropbox, Figma, Google Drive, HubSpot, Marketo,, Adobe Premiere, and Slack.

Vimeo pro is more than a video hosting platform

I've used Vimeo for a few years now and it has greatly increased my business's professionalism on my videos and how clients and potential customers can view and interact with my videos.

Pros

Vimeo Pro is not cheap, but it gives you a lot of great features. You have 7TB of space to upload videos, you have great tools to control where your content can be viewed and saved, there are review tools for client videos , online video creation tools and a video capture plugin for your browser so you can make your own screen capture videos. There's also access to live stream studio, which is professional level streaming software.

Cons

It is expensive if you're not using all of the tools regularly. The cost comes out to $75/month which is much more expensive than 'free' which is what hosting videos on YouTube would cost.

Alternatives Considered

Wistia and YouTube

Reasons for Switching to Vimeo

The main reason that made me use Vimeo Pro is that I needed a good live streaming tool for streaming events.

Vimeo does what it needs to. It is a great platform for our organization to upload webinar recordings and other videos related to the work that we do. It is especially great, because not everyone is available at the time of our webinars, with this people can watch at their leisure. The platform is user friendly.

Pros

It is easy to upload videos. The name of the file is carried over, and it is easy to write the descriptions, change the video thumbnail, and track the number of views.

Cons

I wish you could see all of your videos at once when opening the 'manage videos', instead of 'load more', 'load more.'

I started to use Vimeo to intergrate product videos into my website host, Wix and also to intergrate videos into my email content for my customers. The cost is high and that was one of the issues preventing me from using it further

Pros

Create high quality videos. It is also quite easy to use .You can also select videos to be seen by your followers or only someone with a password. A feature you tube does not have.

Cons

The cost , the cost can be prohibitive . There are also no custom web channel or app options to use .As a user, you also cannot manage the videos

We've had a good experience with Vimeo but I would not recommend using it as your main video upload website for ad purposes since it is not known and used as much as other options, however, for embedded links to use on websites or other platforms, it is great because of its video quality.

Pros

The feature that I like the most is that the video quality remains the same when we upload a video for out marketing purposes. Most online video players reduce quality even if you upload on 4K.

Cons

I'd love it to be known by more people, because sometimes it is hard to get organic visitors into our content. We had to use other platforms to get an embedded link and share it from there with ads.

I think it can be hard as a small business owner to find some thing that is easy to use and a platform that is used by others. I love how user-friendly it is. I also love how easy it is to share content with this software.

Cons
