    Publitio is also media hosting, howeevr CDN is offering just 6 locations. Also DRM is not delopyed yet and 4K video hosting is much expensive.

    Gumlet's compression, streaming speed and player experience is much better than the others. We have yet to experience buffering issues when streaming our videos from Gumlet.

    Gumlet is a little easier to use. It's a high quality service and has great limits for pricing.

    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

    Publitio
    Publitio works great for serving media of almost all kinds. Although we don't use this, Publitio has a transform-by-url feature that allows website managers to serve different image sizes and formats by changing the url. If you need reliable image, video, and audio hosting, Publitio is a solid choice. The service is less well developed for document content such as DOCX files.

    Cons
    Gumlet
    • 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.

    Usability
    Gumlet
    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.

    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.

    Gumlet
    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.

    We were able to find great pricing on Publitio. Even though Publitio is not particularly streamlined, it is still a little less technical than S3 for non-developer users. Publitio is both managed (unlike AWS and Vultr) and competitively priced--and it offers content management features that may be key for some folks
