Pros / Cons
  • The greatest part is we have multiple volunteers helping with broadcasts and we were looking for the simplest option for less technical individuals...no streaming keys, just a toggle on and off switch.
  • Some abilities of the platform do not work straightforward but require a workaround and because that workaround is not clear it requires constant alert when you add new team members.

  • The pushing of graphics over the video is helpful for song lyrics and message slides.
  • Despite of all its advantages, a few problems are available, there are other platforms that are entirely free, and some that offer similar services but at a lower price, as such one might question the money they are paying for the platform, which means vimeo must make sure their services are so good that it corresponds with the services they are offering. Despite them offering a free trial option but the amount of storage in that option is not enough and it discourages content creators.
