Easy and Affordable Video Hosting
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Gumlet we selected because we needed a reliable and cost effective way to host video clips. Sometimes, clips are shared on private viewing pages. Other times, we embed a clip on a client's website. Gumlet solves both needs in a very easy to use interface that makes uploading, organizing and sharing video fun to do.
Pros
- Create private viewing pages
- Organize clips into collections then sub-play lists
- Customize the embed player for client branding and colors
- Offer optional secure video streaming with DRM that all the big companies use to prevent people stealing our content
Cons
- I would like the ability to set a higher minimum playing resolution so that videos aren't blurry at the start.
- Coming from Vimeo I would like to see a Chrome extension or Windows application to record my screen similar to what Loom has.
- I would like to see sub folder in playlists within collections. Currently I can only have top level playlists.
Return on Investment
- We were able to save money compared to renewing with Vimeo and almost have all of the features we used.
- Cost works out to be much less based than other services based on our usage.
- We feel that we can help grow our business by being to more easily share clips with clients. We plan to do new things like share video proposals and more with it.
