Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Strengths for Gumlet 1) You can host not only videos (Up to 4k Resolution), but they also provide Image CDN (Which is not the best value in terms of pricing IMO). With their Image CDN, and if you're hosting your website in Wordpress, you can easily turn on Gumlet's Image CDN with just one click. Simple & easy. DRM protected feature is also a value added ones. 2) Choosing a CDN we will see how good the delivery speed of the content (video or image), in my case, Gumlet's bandwidth are blazingly fast. Although I did not test it on 4k Video, 1080p video are no bufferings at all, just play instantly. Also, the publishing options widget makes it easier to embed in websites, emails, or share URLs easily. 3) Best for Freelancers / SMEs / Influencers which would like to share their high quality video contents on their desired platform (Either websites, social media platform, email). Weaknesses 1) Gumlet's Image CDN (Which is not the best value in terms of pricing IMO) is a separate pricing compared with their Video CDN. Felt that there are cheapest solutions when comes to Image CDN, such as Bunny CDN, Imgix, Strapi etc) 2) In Gumlet's "Collection", this act as a workspace where I could categorize my videos. Gumlet's Video unable to move video that was uploaded from a collection to another collection. I did contact their support and they have confirmed that the feature will not be implemented in the near future as well ( https://feedback.gumlet.com/feature-requests/p/move-videos-between-collections) . 3) One thing to take note while using Gumlet's Image CDN Wordpress plugins. In my website's Gumlet settings, lazy load image activated, auto compress image activate, use original images activated, browser webp detect activated, Use width activated. I'm using Bricks builder as page builder, if Gumlet CDN is activated, sometimes it will cause Bricks Builder Page builder turns blank page. I'll keep Gumlet plugin deactivated if I would like to do edit and turn it on later on. Maybe there can be some improvement in this area. 4) Lastly, it's the quota limitation for Videos uploaded to the server (Count by minutes). Would be happier if it's file storage or video quantities rather than minutes as it felt inssuficient. Also, in my Appsumo Tier 6 package did not include Image CDN & DRM. The offer is not full fledged, some services allowed subscriptions only.
