Vimeo Pro Review

Vimeo 2Vimeo Pro

Summary: A low performer in our Category battles, Vimeo Pro is still a good, low cost, video hosting platform for creative professionals. If you only have a small volume of video that you want to display in beautiful high definition, Vimeo Pro could be the option for you. Basic analytics and tracking features are included but are not as advanced as the others in the category.

Vimeo Pro is commended for Low Price, High Definition video option as well as Direct Payment (Tip Jar).

As the case with Viddler, 3rd party software integration is not on the Top of the list for Vimeo Pro developers. It will integrate with only 2 out of 31 application analysed while the category mean is 8 out of 31. If coupled with relatively high cost, it makes another one of the weakest combinations of all small business tools analysed.

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