Vimeo Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services Reviews & Insights

Our firm has a doctors newsletter subscription that thousands and thousands of doctors subscribe to nationwide, and we also host live webinars.

Vimeo's customer support has been quite disappointing. While their usual and customary canned responses are suitable for small tech issues, don't ever get into a real problem with their platform, because they will NOT respond to inquiring emails and continue to send canned responses. The only caveat is when I actually called Livestream's enterprise customer sales support, and the rep did help me, although we are NOT supposed to contact by phone. For that, I give them a 3, just for her kindness.

Our firm paid for the business pro for 900/year. Our firm also has a doctors newsletter subscription that thousands and thousands of doctors subscribe to nationwide, and we also host live webinars. Livestream/Vimeo has a significant deficit when it comes to any kind of editing capabilities and uploading (even just cutting out a frame or 2). For some reason, if our webinars were public and not exclusive to subscribers, we can place the video on YouTube without issue. Vimeo's platform is another story (for when we have to download, edit, and re-upload). We are now seeking out other (more proficient and better) platforms and WOULD NOT recommend Vimeo's Top Tiered Subscription for $900/year unless you're okay with no real help and canned responses when you actually need a person on the other end of that email. Again, we serve thousands of thousands of subscribers, don't charge as much as Vimeo, and provide much better customer support to our users/subscribers. Shame on you, Vimeo!!! Shame on you!

My online business uses Vimeo for my clients who sell online courses. My clients can upload their videos to Vimeo, and I can use the easy embed settings to put into the program we use for their online courses. It is insanely easy to use and very reliable. I highly recommend for anyone needing to store videos for access across a team.

Vimeo is great for online businesses needing a place to store their videos. If you are looking to use it for a place to get your content out to new users, then it is more complicated.

At my current role, we do a lot of video work for our clients (particularly B2B marketing). This involves a LOT of graphic-heavy videos/video production. Clients want to be able to see progress. Vimeo Pro is a great tool because it allows us a lot of storage space for our client work, and it helps us share the content.

If you're a production house who does a lot of video work, Vimeo Pro is a MUST HAVE. There's no loss in quality when uploading videos, the layout is easy to navigate and clean, and it's a much more professional setting than YouTube. The service, quality, and customer care that Vimeo offers its users is basically unparalleled.

We use the product to host and market our product videos—demos, webinars, seminars, interviews, etc. It is currently used by the Sales & Marketing Departments and it helps gives our sales reps easy access to product materials that they can share with prospects and clients. We also embed videos on a lot of our marketing materials (landing pages, blogs, and website) and Vimeo Pro makes that very simple.

Great for online video embedding and content management (1 TB storage is ample). Great for sharing internally and externally, with the library feature it is very simple to find relevant videos. The upload process can sometimes be quite long and there are some formats of video that are not accepted. We have had an instance where we tried to upload a video recording through a screen grab software, but Vimeo was unable to do it.

We use Vimeo Pro to store client meetings, interviews, work sessions, design charrettes, promotional videos, presentations, and more. We use most of Vimeo Pro’s features including the ability to password-protect clients’ workshops, presentation mode for sharing videos without distraction, and the review capabilities.

If you want to make your valuable video assets available to a team, consider Vimeo Pro. If you’re ready to have your videos available anywhere (even if you’re working solo) consider Vimeo Pro. If you don’t want to purchase lots of storage (and make sure you’re backups never disappear), consider Vimeo Pro.

My department originally needed a video hosting platform that had privacy built in. YouTube wouldn't have worked for us, Amazon S3 didn't have the capability to deliver streaming video at the time, and Wistia was too expensive for our needs. Vimeo Pro was affordable and worked. My team uses Vimeo Pro to host all of our training videos - the training videos are organized on our main site, and are embedded from Vimeo Pro.

Vimeo Pro is well suited if you need to host internal videos and don't want to do a lot of configurations to set it up. Once your videos are uploaded, you can then embed them or share them anywhere, and very quickly too. You can set the video to only show on specific sites, and organize your library of content in folders.

If the video is vital - like a sales video, where a error can cause a customer to never return - I recommend Wistia instead (even though it's more expensive.). Vimeo Pro is much more cost effective overall.

We use Vimeo Pro as our video hosting service for all of our content. Our company is specifically a media company and our flagship product is a learning platform where the majority of the coursework is made up of videos. In addition to the video training content, we also host our explainer videos for product landing pages. The service is used by both the media team and marketing.

Vimeo is well suited for video embeds on product landing pages or as embeds for training course materials. Our business specifically uses videos hosted on Vimeo as iframe content in courses inside of the Moodle LMS environment. As we have a variety of users with different hardware setups, the ability to choose playback options helps immensely.

I used Vimeo Pro to make videos for my website. It was a great tool to help me create videos but was on the pricey side for me. I loved the site's features so I still use Vimeo, but don't maintain a pro membership anymore. Sometimes I miss the more advanced features and would consider switching back.

If you need to create a lot of videos Vimeo Pro is definitely for you. If you only need light usage, the cost might be a little steep for what you use it for. The features and benefits make it worth it, but only if you utilize them. There is also an option to not have any upload limits if you have a high output volume.

I work for a video agency that creates original short form documentaries for brands. We use Vimeo Pro for a variety of things but mostly it boils down to sharing and reviewing work. You can't beat the features that come with Vimeo Pro for the price.

Vimeo Pro is so inexpensive that it's almost always worth upgrading accounts. I still upload to YouTube for search engine optimization but as far as playback and easy player customization you can't beat Vimeo Pro. It's well suited to display videos securely, easily select custom thumbnails, it's a little less appropriate for your entire external video strategy. You'll lose out on search to YouTube and won't be able to track key video metrics like time watched and audience retention that are built into YouTube Analytics. Another key feature that Vimeo has is the ability to replace video files without changing the URL, embed code, etc.
