Vimeo is for hosting. PixelPort is for business.
Vimeo Pro is great for embedding reels on your website. But for client delivery? You're paying $20/month for a platform that can't handle photos, can't sell anything, and shows your work on their website.
Your delivery platform should make you money, not just cost you money.

The Vimeo problem.
Video only, no photos
If you also shoot photos, you need a separate platform. Two logins, two links, double the cost.
Vimeo branding everywhere
Even with Pro, clients watch on vimeo.com. The player says Vimeo. Your brand is secondary.
No sales capability
Want to offer the extended ceremony? Send a separate invoice. Every upsell requires manual work.
Fragmented experience
"Here's your Vimeo link for video. And here's Pixieset for photos." Confusing for clients.
One platform instead of three.
Current stack (typical):
- Vimeo Pro: $20/mo
- Pixieset or CloudSpot: $16-30/mo
- Selling capability: $0
Total: $36-50/month, $0 revenue
With PixelPort:
- PixelPort Professional: $49/mo
- Video hosting: Included
- Photo galleries: Included
- Built-in sales: 0% commission
Total: $49/month, avg $800/month in sales
Switching from Vimeo?
Stop paying for three tools that make you nothing.
Vimeo for video. Pixieset for photos. PayPal for invoices. It's 2026, you shouldn't need three platforms to deliver one wedding.
