Wow. This couldn’t be better!
Available to Plus Members, you can track plays, loads, finishes, comments and even more on your videos.
Geolocation? Embeds? Yes, you can count those too. I’m honestly really impressed. Check out this video overview:
And here’s a look at one of my videos:
I feel this is even more of a reason to use Vimeo for your organization.
Hey YouTube, do you have something like this?
😉
PhillipGibb says
Awesome – I prefer Vimeo so much more. I don’t know why – it just looks better, shrug.
When they do stuff like this it makes them so much more.
Brad Davis Seal says
Been waiting for this. Such a great surprise.
John Saddington says
yes!
Aaron Melton says
Looks a remarkable amount like Google Analytics…
John Saddington says
that it does!
Michael Hyatt says
This looks awesome. However, I am looking for a video service like Viddler that enables me to embed external links within the video. Gary Vaynerchuk uses this all the time on his wine reviews. It is pretty awesome.
John Saddington says
agreed. viddler is pretty neat!
Nick Shoemaker says
AND Viddler lets you put YOUR OWN logo in your player (unlike YouTube or Vimeo). That is- a logo that stays like in YouTube. (Vimeo does allow you to have your profile image, but it doesn’t stick through the video.
John Saddington says
logo. lame. 😉
PhillipGibb says
oh wow, that’s very neat. I can just picture a person ‘picking up’ virtual text – “click here”
David Knapp says
Thanks for sharing this. This looks very thorough. Next month I am becoming a plus member.
John Saddington says
sweet. i’ve been one for a year and a half…? 2 years?
Nick Shoemaker says
Must. Get. Plus. Account.
This is really all I’ve been waiting for (this and the superfast uploads vs. the free.99 account)
And I like that Plus member’s vids can be viewed in non-flash (für teh iPhone!)
Vimeo FTW!

wow, kudos to Vimeo. Really bringing the heat on YouTube for pro-grade videos.

Vimeo is awesome, hardly arguable. I wonder how Vimeo does in the categories listed here: https://churchm.ag/social-media-cheat-sheet/
Especially in comparison to youtube.
Would make a good youtube vs vimeo cagematch article 😉
brett barner says
Good call, Danny. I was wondering the same thing.
Brad Davis Seal says
Vimeo Plus doesn’t let you embed links in a video while it’s playing but it does lets you embed a link in an ‘outro’. Outro options include: videos from your library, album or channel; 3 specific videos; html text, or a link
John Saddington says
i find those things annoying though. so, i’d rather not have the option at all.
Vin Thomas says
Awesome addition. My only beef with Vimeo is that they don’t allow commercial videos. Lots of my clients love the UI of Vimeo, but end up having to use some other service because they don’t want to violate the terms. Boo.
John Saddington says
ah. that’s an interesting point.
Scott Magdalein says
Is there anything that Vimeo doesn’t do well? They’re the Apple of online video.
Stephen Bateman says
once again proving how much better vimeo is.
I think it’s the size difference..
MarkSpizer says
great post as usual!
