"Gumlet is exactly what we were looking for!"

5/5

What do you like best about Gumlet?

My favorite feature, and the reason I went with Gumlet, is its DRM encryption. I run a web design agency, and one of the services we offer is video editing. Not too long ago, I discovered a website using a video we had created and edited for a client. This other web designer had downloaded the video from my client's website and used it on the site he was creating for their client—without the client’s knowledge. They didn’t even bother changing the file name, making it even more obvious that it had been stolen from my client's website. I had my client quickly send them a cease-and-desist letter, and they removed the video immediately; however, I kept wondering if there were other web design agencies using our videos without permission. Gumlet provides me the peace of mind that our competitors can no longer download and use our work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

Nothing really. The dashboard is straightforward and support is always quick to reply if you have any questions or if you don't understand how something works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gumlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

Many of the websites my web design agency creates include fullscreen background videos, which consume a ton of bandwidth—especially on high-traffic sites. Gumlet solves this problem by hosting and streaming these videos. On top of that, it protects your media and is GDPR compliant, which is crucial for my agency.

"Gumlet is go to software for protected video hosting with DRM integration"

5/5

What do you like best about Gumlet?

I decided to buy Gumlet video because I have seen many established companies use it for image hosting. My requirement was to set up Video Hosting for LMS system. Appsumo plan provided great cost benefit while achieving this goal. Dashboard is clean and neat. Documentation is available for each and every topic. Video protection features like watermark are essential these days to protect videos. Domain-based protection for embedding is another good thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

Regular pricing for Gumlet is very high and there is no support of DRM protection in lower variant subscriptions. This is a big disappointment and forces customers to buy higher priced versions. But many content creators need to protect a small amount of videos with DRM, so it is not suitable for this use case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gumlet is a really amazing! I'm happy that I switched from Vimeo!"

5/5

What do you like best about Gumlet?

Gumlet is excellent to use for hosting videos. I used Vimeo prior and while that performed well, I like Gumlet better. It offers a full suite of powerful capabilities for hosting and organizing my videos, and keeping them secure. It's a very simple platform to use, and when I did need assistance, I got swift help to solve my problem. The customer service was always helpful when I needed it. I highly recommend Gumlet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

I'm quite happy with Gumlet. I haven't used all the features yet and there are some I still need to learn. But for my basic needs, it's 100% spot on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"professional feel to software"

4/5

What do you like best about Gumlet?

Gumlet video has advanced features and has a more polished feel to it than some other platforms used (e.g., Vadoo). Some features include customizable player, multi-layered video protection & DRM, intuitive video CMS with auto subtitles, thumbnails, CTAs, high-quality, buffer-free, & fast-loading videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

I am not really disliking anything as compared to other platforms, but maybe they could add a feature where a user could loop a chapter on a video. It would not be used very often but would be great for exercise videos that have a sequence, so the user could loop a sequence they need to do more of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gumlet is from another star"

5/5

What do you like best about Gumlet?

In my opinion, there are hardly any affordable and, above all, as intuitive solutions in the field of video hosting as Gumlet. I have been looking for a solution for a long time and am more than satisfied with Gumlet. The videos load at lightning speed - so fast that you wouldn't believe that anything is loading. The backend is extremely simple and best of all! DRM is super easy to set up and, above all, you have fast and friendly support if you have any questions. I organize online conferences and was always worried about unauthorized downloads, which is now a thing of the past.

The pricing structure is very fair when compared to the global players.

Here are my biggest plus points:

- CDN is included

- Very intuitive backend

- With channels (DRM ready) you can give certain users private access

- Buttons can be integrated directly into the video

- Ultra fast loading videos

- Digital Right Management (DRM) !!!!

- Extensive video analytics

All in all, Gumlet is simply from another star! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

At the moment there is nothing I don't like, which can of course still change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gumlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gumlet simply ensures that all videos can be centrally hosted on various landing pages, webinars, online courses, and online conferences. This makes everything simpler and more organized. Above all, you are no longer dependent on which video players another tool offers, as they usually lack something that Gumlet, in turn, provides. Additionally, you can always stay true to your brand design, as the video players can be customized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
