Our small business was notified today that we can no longer remain on the Pro plan that we’ve had for a few years and, because they consider us corporate, we will be moved to the Studio plan for $4800/yr. That’s a 1600% increase.
That’s absolutely ridiculous…we have 20GB of video hosted on there and rarely upload.
$300 to $4800? That’s insane.
Was excited to see that this has finally be implemented, but it seems like there's still a cap on how many videos can be bulk updated at a time.
As you can see in the screenshot, I tried applying a global password update to 773 videos at once, but it failed to make the change. There was no error message or anything, it just didn't work. So I had to go back to updating in batches of 50, although I was able to do that at the folder-level which was incrementally better than previously.
So, am I correct that Vimeo still has a hard cap on how many videos can be bulk updated at once? And is the cap still 50? Is there any general reason why that limitation exists?

At some point you have to accept that there probably won’t be an official answer (https://www.reddit.com/r/vimeo/comments/1sw7t5x/vimeo_plans_and_pricing_2026/) but I’ve tried to investigate the situation in other ways – through web searches and long conversations with Vimeo’s AI bot – and here’s my attempt at a summary:
I hope someone from the Vimeo team can confirm (or deny?) this 🤔
Vimeo has referred to Evernote as an example of the kind of products Bending Spoons develops and maintains. That made me a bit uneasy, because I personally had to leave Evernote after many years of use. Over time, a number of small but persistent issues made the product unreliable for me – and more importantly, they raised questions about the technical stability behind the scenes.
I want to acknowledge that Vimeo has seen several positive changes and improvements since Bending Spoons took over. There’s clearly been good work done, and if that direction continues, I’m confident Vimeo can remain one of the leading video platforms for both professional and personal use.
However, the current pattern at Vimeo reminds me a little of how it started at Evernote: lot of visible activity, new features, new messaging, new updates... But (in Evernotes case) when you looked more closely, you also notice lot of small bugs and inconsistencies that took a long time to fix, if they got fixed at all.
So my question is simply this:
Does Vimeo have its own dedicated development team, or is it essentially the same people with the same development approach as at Evernote?
So like many of you i've been searching for options since Vimeo got bought and I landed on Livid. They're pretty new to the scene but as the name implies they're a group of programmers who absolutely HATE Bending Spoons and wanted to provide a place of refuge for those with their livelihood on Vimeo.
Because they're new, there's the occasional bug (not often but it happens), but when you do have issues their support team has been *incredibly* fast and responsive. Here you can see I messaged them about an issue (on a Sunday morning). They replied to me almost immediately and had verified they were having the same issue. Then they were able to issue a fix within 24 hours.
The site is also very snappy and they have a tool to port over your Vimeo files!
Very cool company. Highly recommend.
