Pros

“The player customization let me keep everything on brand, the privacy controls made it easy to manage exactly who could see what, and the analytics gave me real insight into how people engaged with my content.”

Peter M.

Owner

“We use it to host hundreds of custom videos generated automatically through our content pipeline, and the ability to control and manage those videos through the API has been particularly valuable.”

Corin S.

CTO

“There were no recommended videos pulling viewers away, no platform branding stealing attention, and the player customization let me match the look to my own brand.”

Peter M.

Owner

Pros

“It gives us a polished viewing experience without outside advertisements or unrelated recommendations, and the player can be adjusted with our logo, colors, and preferred embed settings.”

Randall H.

CEO

“Their support team responded very quickly and precisely to every question I asked; I can see they are sticking to their roadmap, and the switch from Vimeo to Livid is incredibly easy and intuitive thanks to their "LOVE" tool: you simply log in to your Vimeo account, select the videos you want to move, and the program handles the rest automatically.”

Alessandro V.

consultant

“The process to upload videos, configure every video and limit it to my domain it's straightforward and also could be automated via API (I didn't use this functionality at the moment)”

Carlos L.

CTO

Cons

“Often we are unable to upload directly from mobile (probably due to a cloud error on our end), so we need to first transfer it to a computer and then from there upload via a web browser.”

Richard G.

Yoga Instructor

“Videos hosted on SproutVideo can't be watched directly in the Patreon iOS app so my subscribers are forced to log into their Patreon account on Safari in order to watch my content.”

Sarah A.

Gaming content creator

“I wanted to set up a second, account and could have been easier to clone the account and delete the unrequired videos then have to download and reupload videos, very time consuming.”

Sara L.

Founder

Cons

“After organizing my videos into folders, I was disappointed to learn that I could not share the entire folder with all its contents but can only share each individual video.”
