Vimeo competitive advantage over YouTube

30/10/2024
Pro
api

I host SupeRails PRO videos on Vimeo
It is great because:

  • no youtube branding & ads = more premium feeling
  • I don’t have to think about hosting my videos & styling my player
  • has basic security features, as “video can be viewed only on selected domains”
  • fixed cost, not usage based like MUX.com

I see it as Vimeo is B2B, Youtube is B2C.

But having hundreds of videos in my library I want an easy way to import videos from Vimeo into my Ruby on Rails app.

I did not feel comfortable using an Vimeo API gems, but their own API is very good. You don’t need an api gem to use an API!
