4.5/5
What do you like best about Gumlet?

Gumlet works out of the box with an easy but deep configuration process: upload your videos, select playback options, fine-tune resolution, enable DRM protection, and embed. Integration is a breeze with code ready to be copied and pasted across different contexts. Unlimited bandwidth in livestreaming is another pro. Gumlet has become the backbone of our private video delivery infrastructure, and it's been dependable and fast from day 1. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

I wish we could have more private channel subscribers for our content via Gumlet.

Also, Fairplay credentials are needed to ensure playback on iOS devices, but this requires a paid Apple developer account. It would be fantastic if there were a way to make this process smoother or less pricey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"best video hosting provider"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Gumlet?

I've tried a bunch of video hosting platforms, and Gumlet is hands-down one of the best. It's super easy to use, even for someone like me who isn't a tech whiz. I love how I can organize my videos into collections and folders, and the dashboard is really intuitive. The video quality is fantastic – it loads quickly and plays smoothly, way better than some others I've used (cough, BunnyStream, cough). Plus, they have some really cool features like custom CNAME for branding, DRM, and dynamic watermarks, which is great for protecting my content. Whether you're hosting online courses, marketing videos, or just need a reliable way to stream video, I'd definitely recommend checking out Gumlet. It's been a game-changer for me.

"I found the software with DRM technology that will protect my online courses!"
5/5
What do you like best about Gumlet?

- The most important features in Gumlet are the DRM (Digital Rights Management) and the dynamic watermarking what I like very much.

I will planning to create online courses. I spent at least 5 years to find the best online piracy protetctor SaaS.

It looks like I found the solution to protect my contents.

- On the Gumlet website have got a DRM protected sample video. I tested with many screen recording software with this sample. And guess what? I coudn't play properly the recordings file. The whole screen was grey colour. I tried downloading this video sample with the popular Video Download Helper extension (Mozilla Firefox) and it didn't work too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

- I'm not a programmer guy. The learning curve will be tough for me I think. For example: hard to figure how to set up an API key for WordPress LMS (LearnDash), etc.

- They have a documentation page. I have reviewed. I hope the whole setting maybe not so complicated.

- The Gumlet has a YouTube tutorial channel, although the last content uploaded in 2023.

- I hope the CEO will uploading fresh helpful videos to their YouTube channel in the near future.

- Update: On November 30. 2024. in a Zoom meeting, Gumlet’s co-founder, Divyesh Patel, promised that to us in 2025 will upload tutorial videos to the Gumlet YT channel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"If you need to created membership Netflix-style Channels, this is a game changer"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Gumlet?

I have a client who wanted to have a video series subscription service on her WordPress website. I created a makeshift way to do this. When I told her about the ability for Gumlet to provide Netflix-style Membership Channels, she immediately saw the value and we purchased Gumlet. Creating a branded Channel was pretty easy. As a website developer I like Gumlet because I can create and manage multiple Membership Channels for my other clients.

I also like how the videos have protection from being copied vs Youtube or Vimeo. Most of my clients do not want people watching embedded videos on their website and then bouncing out to Youtube or Vimeo.

It's true, the videos do load very fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gumlet?

Areas where I think Gumlet needs improvement are:

1) Support for clients in the USA. Gumlet gives you the ability to book your own time slot for live support but times range from 9:30pm to 5:30am. If they want more USA clients they really need to provide business hour support.

2) I also wanted the Channel feature to provide a member payment features, which Gumlet does not have but says it is in the making to be released at a future date. Not having this mean I need to create my own payment portal and used an automation tool like TaskMagic to create the Gumlet registration invite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
