Founded by the team behind StreamYard, Livid offers an alternative to legacy providers by focusing on the core tools SMBs actually use, including easy sharing and branded embedding. We prioritize transparency and simplicity over corporate complexity, offering a Pro plan with 2TB of storage and full player customization at a fraction of the traditional market cost. If more storage is needed, we offer a 4TB Premium plan with 5 seats. Livid allows businesses to remove all watermarking and add their own branding as a standard feature. For sensitive content, users can lock videos behind password-protected sharing, making it a great fit for internal training and client reviews. To simplify moving from Vimeo, we developed the Livid One-click Video Exporter (L.O.V.E). This tool functions as a bulk downloader for any user, but for those migrating to a Livid account, it automates the entire transition by recreating folder structures and preserving metadata. Every user is backed by our "no-bot" support policy, ensuring direct access to the team that built the product. > > Verdict: Rated **4.9/5** by 64 users.

Also the interface is very clean and effective. You can easily use it as a first timer with no hesitation. Video player is also great and seems to work very well. > > **Cons**: Right now, it's lacking live streaming option, and that's one feature that I will miss coming from Vimeo. To see live streaming and some automation possibilities later on down the line. > > The switch from video to live it was very smooth and painless. Livet is now my go-to player to embed videos on events websites, even use it as a video review. It's great. ----- ### "Secure, Fast, and Professional Video Hosting with Exceptional Support" — 5.0/5 > **Israel** | *20 September 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Livid is the ultra-fast, beautifully customizable, ad-free video player that embeds flawlessly into my WordPress and Elementor online academy setup. The security features, including domain restrictions and password protection, keep my proprietary course content safe from direct downloads and unauthorized sharing. Furthermore, the support team is exceptionally agile; they tested and deployed a fix for an iOS native playback subtitle issue in under 24 hours. Note: I was offered an additional 50GB of storage as an incentive for providing my honest review. > > **Cons**: The infrastructure is very solid, but as the platform grows, I would love to see a few additional features: 1. One-click AI auto-translation for subtitles to cater to international students. 2. A simulated live streaming mode for pre-recorded webinar events with locked controls. 3. An automated brand intro/outro feature that automatically appends branded clips to videos without manual re-editing. > > Switching from YouTube to Livid solved our main issues with unlisted link security, intrusive ads, and recommended video distractions. Livid provides a clean, enterprise-grade video hosting environment tailored for online courses without forcing us into expensive monthly subscriptions like Vimeo or Wistia. It offers complete peace of mind regarding content privacy and video playback performance. ----- ### "Inexpensive, basic but works fine" — 4.0/5 > **simon** | *9 September 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Inexpensive, easy to use, superior video quality to free options like youtube etc with less restrictions. > > **Cons**: Basic, at the time of writing it lacks paywall integration so not a complete solution if the video content is intended to be sold etc. > > Easy, as a video hosting platform it does what it does. Customer support seems well above average as it feels like you're actually dealing the core people behind the company. ----- ### "Professional Video Hosting with Helpful Privacy and Branding Controls" — 5.0/5 > **Randall** | *11 September 2026* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: LIVID has been a practical choice for managing and sharing our video content. 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. I also find the access controls useful. We can share videos privately, use unlisted links, or add password protection when content should only be available to specific viewers. The viewing analytics provide useful information about engagement, and timestamped comments make it easier to review videos and organize feedback. A particularly convenient feature is the option to update a video while keeping the same URL. This saves time when an existing link or website embed needs to remain active. LIVID’s migration tools are another advantage for teams moving content from Vimeo. The main improvement I would like to see is more extensive branding control, especially the ability to remove additional LIVID logos and create an experience that feels completely aligned with our company. Overall, LIVID is a capable and user-friendly platform for businesses, educators, creators, and teams that need dependable video hosting with useful privacy and management options. > > **Cons**: The branding options are useful, but I’d appreciate greater control over the player’s appearance. More customization choices and the option to hide additional LIVID branding would help us create a more consistent, company-focused viewing experience for our audience. > > My overall experience with LIVID has been positive. The platform offers a straightforward way to host, organize, and share videos in a clean, professional environment without third-party advertisements or distracting recommendations. I especially appreciate the privacy settings, viewer analytics, timestamped feedback, and the ability to update a video without changing its existing URL. The customizable player and migration tools have also made LIVID useful for managing our content and maintaining a consistent presentation. While I would like to see more advanced branding controls and the option to remove additional LIVID logos, the platform has been reliable and easy to use overall. It is a practical solution for businesses and teams that want greater control over their video content and viewing experience. ----- ### "No Brainer For Website Speed & Customization" — 5.0/5 > **Tanner** | *9 September 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great for website speed, easy to migrate from Vimeo, fully customizable branding, easy to use, easy to upload videos > > **Cons**: Nothing, I use this to host and embed videos on my website that load fast and do not trigger slow website speed load times, and this does exactly that, so I likely will not encounter items I wouldn't like. > > Livid immediately fulfilled on what I switched to it for. I was happy with Vimeo, but not thrilled with the monthly fees given I was only using it to store videos so they would load fast on my company websites. So, switching to Livid was a no-brainer, and the fully customizable user interface was a huge plus. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/538232/Livid?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/538232/Livid) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
