Azure Media Services vs. Gumlet

I think Gumlet is suitable for any content creator that makes videos for clients as well as for small businesses that want to host videos on their website to promote their products/services. If you want to make quick videos sharing your screen you have to do this using a different tool then export your footage and manually upload to Gumlet so it's not ideal for that

• Speedy transcoding, hosting, and streaming of my film media
• Privacy Features (Passwords, private, unlisted, geo-blocking of select countries, etc.)
• Automated AI subtitling / transcription of my content for no additional fee
• Extensive Analytics, reports about my content
• Additionally offers direct download links for my content
• Attractive Player customization, hide Gumlet logo if so wanted, change highlight color of the player, upload own logo
• Very attractive value proposition with the current special lifetime deal

• More documentation, things works but sometimes you want more details.
• Need more time as the amount if generous, but since it's so good you want to use it more for everything.
• It works really well so there's nothing but nitpicking. If you have to do that then it's not that big of a deal.

1 is because I have purchased the lifetime offer from Appsumo, therefore does not need to renew any subscription from Gumlet, however the monthly subscription of the custom domain is makes us quite limited in terms of using 1 account to host few domains.

It is already at a very good place in terms of delivering what it is intended to do. Of course, there are always opportunities to improve. Gumlet is replacing strong video hosting services like Vimeo, YouTube, Wistia etc. so it needs to be positioned to deliver video streaming competitively to be relevant and worth recommending.

This is probably the biggest factor for Gumlet. Their support team is fantastic and always professional. Most support inquiries through their chat get answered in minutes.

It was quick and easy. We found that the import from Vimeo wasn't pulling in the highest original quality so we manually uploaded our clips.

Some of our clients use Vimeo Livestream and find it overly complicated. Gumlet hasn't released it yet, but considering how easy it is to use their other services, I trust it will be just as easy to live stream - with the bonus of the content protection. Vimeo is overpriced for what they offer, and charge for DRM as an additional add-on on top of their industry-grade CDN. Wistia doesn't have download protection. Way too easy to download and resell content.
