Verdict

Storage or bandwidth: pick the one you run out of

Choose Vimeo if you keep a large library online or want its editing, live-event and marketing tools. Its storage allowances start at 2 TB on the first paid plan.

Choose Vidreno if the videos you host get watched a lot. Its paid plans include 5TB or 50TB of bandwidth a month against Vimeo's 2 TB, at $12 and $59 a month, and any video can be sold from the same account for a flat 10% per sale.

Questions

Vidreno vs Vimeo FAQ

Is Vidreno cheaper than Vimeo?
Vidreno's paid plans are $12 and $59 a month. Vimeo's self-serve paid plans are $12, $25 and $75 a month billed annually. What you get differs: Vimeo bundles far more storage, Vidreno bundles far more monthly bandwidth. Which works out cheaper depends on whether your cost driver is the size of your library or how much it gets watched.
Does Vimeo limit bandwidth?
Yes. Vimeo's pricing page states a 2 TB per month bandwidth cap on all self-serve plans, including Free, and says that exceeding it triggers notifications to lower consumption or talk to sales. Vidreno's allowances are 50GB a month on Free, 5TB on Standard and 50TB on Premium.
Which has more storage?
Vimeo. Its Starter plan alone includes 2 TB of storage, against 1TB on Vidreno Premium. If you host a large archive that is rarely watched, that matters more than bandwidth.
Can I still sell videos on Vimeo?
Vimeo On Demand stopped taking new sales on 21 September 2026 and shuts down completely on 20 November 2026. Vimeo's replacement for sellers is Vimeo OTT, which charges per subscriber and per transaction rather than through the hosting plans. Compare Vidreno on Demand with Vimeo OTT
How do I move videos from Vimeo to Vidreno?
Download your original files from Vimeo (Vimeo's help centre explains how) and upload them to Vidreno: MP4, MOV, AVI and more, up to 1 TB per file. Then swap the embed codes on your site for Vidreno's. If you were selling through Vimeo On Demand, the migration guide covers the extra steps. Read the migration guide
