Vimeo Is Yet Again Changing Its Offering (A) New Subscribers

 Vimeo keeps changing its offerings, now with new plans, and new denominations: Starter (The old "Plus", only different), Standard (Old "Pro", although not quite), and Advanced for live streaming and events. Plus the usual Enterprise, custom, talk to us service.

THAT IS, IF YOU ARE A NEW SUBSCRIBER.

If you are already a "Plus" or "Pro" subscriber, you will get DIFFERENT UPGRADE OFFERS with DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS. See my other posts. Vimeo is so confusingly bad at this.

(A) NEW SUBS

Biggest change: these new plans are all SINGLE TEAM MEMBER. Previous plans had 3 "Pro", or 10 "Business" & "Premium" INCLUDED team members. Not anymore. You have to pay more for additional seats.

Notable change from previous plans: there is now a QUOTA OF VIDEOS ("total number of videos you can have in your account at any given point in time"): 60 for Starter, 120 for Standard, 500 for Advanced. All plans have a 2TB bandwidth per month, no change there.

Prior plans had a total storage limit of 250GB "Plus", 1TB "Pro". And also a limit of 5GB/week upload "Plus" and 20GB/week upload "Pro", without any limits in the total number of videos. These plans are grandfathered at this point for what I can tell.

Standard now has video editing tools, including text based editing, stock photos, videos, and music, and an AI script generator. Starter gains Collaboration tools.

All plans get subscription services (bye, bye OTT), only Standard and Advanced have single video VOD. Sorta like before when you needed at least a "Pro" plan for VOD.
