Viddler Review

Viddler2Viddler – Video Tools for Learning and Engagement

Summary: A low-scoring entry in the category, it was hard to accurately assess Viddler because it’s pricing and features are not clearly listed on the website – their packages are all custom. The customization, analytics, and tracking features appear to be no better or worse than other options in the category, but it loses points on Video SEO and integration. Viddler does have some interesting monetization options.

Viddler is commended for  interesting (direct) monetization options.

Obviously, 3rd party software integration is not on the Top of the list for Viddler developers. It will integrate seamlessly with only 2 out of 31 application analysed (the category mean is 8/31). If coupled with relatively high cost, it makes one of the weakest combinations of all small business software analysed.

Viddler’s Integration Score is 6% (very low).
