G2 report badge for best video platform as a service (VPaaS)

Vimeo has earned the top spot in multiple G2 Fall 2025 Reports!

G2 is the world's largest and most trusted software marketplace and peer review site. Every year, more than 100 million professionals use G2 to make informed software purchasing decisions. 

The quarterly G2 reports calculate customer satisfaction and market presence scores based on validated reviews from real users. Rankings accurately reflect the customer experience, and we're proud to have taken first place in three categories.  

Vimeo ranked:

  • #1 Overall in Video Platform as a Service (VPaaS)
  • #1 Overall in OTT platforms
  • #1 in Enterprise Live Stream Software

That's not all! Vimeo earned more than 170 awards in total, spanning small business implementation, mid-market video communications, and enterprise usability. 

Vimeo is leading the way

Vimeo is the all-in-one video platform for filmmakers, creators, and businesses of all sizes. No need for multiple vendors — even enterprise organizations can cover every video use case with Vimeo. 

The G2 2025 Fall Report positions Vimeo as the market leader for enterprise live streaming, OTT platforms, and developer APIs. The awards also demonstrate confidence across various industries, with reviews from marketing, learning and development (L&D), media professionals, and other sectors.

Video Platform as a Service (VPaaS): #1 Overall 

Vimeo's API supports high-quality video integration with your custom apps. You can also customize the playback experience with software development kits (SDKs) and manage content and track metadata with powerful video tools. 

Compared to other platforms, Vimeo’s Open API provides a seamless experience for automated video publishing. Welcome to the Jungle, a leading hiring platform, uses Vimeo to upload hundreds of videos per month automatically.

OTT Platforms: #1 Overall

Vimeo is the winning solution for direct-to-audience video monetization. From niche content creators to enterprise media organizations, brands of all sizes use Vimeo Streaming to deliver Netflix-style viewing experiences. 

Dropout, an independent comedy streaming service, recognized the value in a turnkey solution for video streaming. Dropout chose to launch their service with Vimeo Streaming rather than build a platform themselves, allowing them to support 10 million views per month without spending a single hour on platform development.

Live Stream Software: #1 Enterprise

Today's enterprise organizations rely on live streaming to stream large events and scale virtual events, webinars, and interactive courses. G2's video platform rankings prove Vimeo delivers the best streaming experience for enterprise customers and their audiences. 

Based in London, the National Theatre is one of England’s most important arts institutions. At the beginning of the pandemic, the National Theatre needed a way to stream live performances to audiences forced to stay at home. But even after the pandemic, the live streaming service has grown to reach new audiences. In 2024, National Theatre at Home, powered by Vimeo, reached 31 million minutes of viewership. 

What customers are saying about Vimeo

Brands and businesses choose Vimeo for its ease of use, superior video quality, and enterprise support. But don't just take our word for it — almost 90% of G2 users rate Vimeo as a four- or five-star solution.

G2 brings trust and transparency to reviews with a multi-layer verification process. Here's what real Vimeo customers are saying on the G2 site:

"Vimeo is an all-in-one platform for video storage, collaboration, hosting, distribution and editing. We use it for all the video content hosting and distribution in our organization and it's used on a daily basis. It has integrated with Zoom and Zapier very easily."
Madhav B.Digital healthcare consultant at an enterprise hospital and health care organization
"Vimeo provides a clean, professional platform that’s ideal for hosting high-quality video content without distractions. I especially appreciate the privacy controls, customizable player, and smooth playback experience – it’s perfect for both internal review and public-facing media."
Ahmed Y.Operations Director and Channels Lead at a mid-market media company
"Over the last year, Vimeo OTT has expanded its horizons and capabilities to stay on top of creator needs in the streaming community. With products that look as sleek as big-name studios, Vimeo OTT allows creators the opportunity to showcase their work in an environment that's neatly organized, elegantly displayed, and easy to use."
Sam Y.Head of Post Production at a small business
