THE biggest difference is our GOAL.
First, we’d like to give a big shoutout to the team at Vimeo. They’ve built a super powerful video hosting solution for content creators.
If you’re here evaluating Claap vs. Vimeo then you’re already doing the right thing by finding a product that can help you make the most of your video content for your organization.
So what’s the difference between Claap and Vimeo?
EMPOWERING VIDEO CREATORS VS. SPEEDING UP ALIGNMENT
The team at Vimeo initially built a product to enable creators to easily create video content. Vimeo calls itself "the Switzerland for creators” with a suite of tools to facilitate video creation.
The founding team at Claap built a platform to solve one of the biggest issues of the new hybrid work era: siloed communication and slow decision-making (think back-to-back meetings or endless messaging threads).
Claap combines many tools into one, unifying your meeting recording, screen recording, and video wiki in a single video workspace, and unlocking a new level of efficiency and alignment.
If you’re looking for a content creator looking for a powerful solution to create videos, you should probably pick Vimeo. But if you’re looking for a solution to help you facilitate alignment and decision-making in your company, here are a few reasons to consider Claap.
THE REST OF THIS PAGE IS FOR YOU.
THE top reasons why companies use claap vs VIMEO.
Reason #1
Claap helps you get precise feedback, not just share VIDEOS

Meetings are powerful to brief your team and gather feedback in-context. Vimeo’s comment system hasn’t been built for that. So Vimeo won’t help you avoid meetings.
With Claap, get relevant feedback. Comment directly on any part of the video as if you’re pointing at it.
Need feedback from your team? Use Claap.
REASON #2
Claap helps you MAKE decisions, not leave topics unsolved

Claap is built to align your team and make decisions.
Structure conversations in threads, mention people to get their attention and ask for vote on important proposals. All that you need to make the best decisions together.
And always, without meetingssss.
REASON #3
Claap's WORKSPACE GIVEs you more control.

Claap’s workspace hierarchy is designed to give the right level of access and privacy to the right user group, all in one place.
An admin can manage a company’s workspace with one or more teams. Each team can organize work into different topics. Each topic is made of claaps recorded by users. At each level, we ensure the right level of permissions.
REASON #4
Claap LETS you ORGANIZE RECORDINGs INTO actionable views

Vimeo organizes videos in simple folders - a bit like Google drive - with no custom views.
Claap’s goal is to increase transparency and facilitate decision-making in organizations.
Group claaps into topics with custom views designed for your use cases.
Sort videos according to a specific program for onboardings, filter videos by status for Product Reviews, ... as many options as you have use cases.
Bonus: you can also share those topics to people outside your organization.
REASON #5
CLAAP LETS YOU RECORD MEETINGS WITH SUMMARY & TRANSCRIPTS

With Claap, you can also record meetings to get access access to summary and transcript and let your teammates catchup on key moments.
So no need to be in meetings you don’t have to be in! And no need to buy another solution just to record meetings.
THEY CHOSE CLAAP TO DRIVE MORE impact.
“Over the past year, we’ve all spent a little too much time in video meetings and more time wishing we could get our heads down and get on with our task list. Claap is the platform that is making that easier”
“Claap helps us save meeting time and get sharp feedback to iterate faster on projects, whether it’s sharing a Claap to one person, or asking feedback to many stakeholders. I can't see my team working without it now.”
"We managed to cut 20% of our meetings with Claap. It’s been instrumental to balance efficient meetings for creative review and culture with recorded videos for overall efficiency, async working across time zones, collaboration, and a record of agreements."
