Skippz — The Vidyard Alternative That Gives You a Real Video Hosting Platform
Vidyard is built for sales outreach. Video hosting, branded share pages, CTAs, captions, and analytics are all features you unlock as you move up their plans and custom pricing kicks in before you get the tools that matter most. Skippz is built around video hosting from the ground up. Everything your team needs to host, manage, market, and monetise video is there from the plan you start on. From $12 a month.
Difference between Vidyard & Skippz
Vidyard started as a video hosting platform and has evolved almost entirely into a sales video tool — AI outreach, personalised video messaging, CRM integrations, and revenue workflows. Hosting exists but it is secondary. Branded share pages require a paid plan. Captions require the Teams tier with custom pricing. CTAs are basic on Starter and fully customisable only on Teams and above. Video hosting is not even included on the free plan.
Skippz is built around hosting from the foundation up. Uncapped video library, branded delivery, custom player, and marketing tools that work independently of any CRM or sales stack. Adaptive video journeys, built-in lead management, custom domains, and fee-free monetisation through Spotlights — all on transparent published pricing without a sales conversation to find out what you will pay.
Why users switch from Vidyard to Skippz
Vidyard is a capable sales video tool. But capable and right for you are two different things. Here is why teams making the switch say they wished they had done it sooner.
Hosting included from day one
Video hosting is not included on Vidyard's free plan and branded share pages require a paid Starter subscription. Skippz includes full uncapped video hosting, branded share pages, and player customisation from the moment you sign up on any paid plan.
No gated basics
Vidyard locks captions behind the Teams plan, fully customisable CTAs behind Teams, and advanced analytics behind paid tiers. On Skippz captions, CTAs, and analytics are available without needing a custom pricing conversation to unlock them.
Marketing that works
Vidyard's CTAs and integrations are built around CRM-connected sales workflows. Skippz gives you adaptive video journeys with floating timeline logic, multiple CTA types, and built-in lead management that works independently — no sales stack required to get full value from your video marketing.
Monetise without platform fees
Vidyard has no native video monetisation. Skippz Spotlights lets you build a branded selling experience, manage member access, and collect payments through your own Stripe account with zero platform fees and zero revenue sharing.
Transparent pricing
Vidyard's Teams and Enterprise plans require a custom pricing conversation before you know what you will pay. Skippz publishes every plan, every feature, and every overage rate on a page anyone can read in two minutes.
Costs you can forecast
Vidyard's per seat model means costs grow with every new team member. Skippz charges a flat plan rate with additional seats at $12 per month. Your team grows without your video bill compounding at the same rate.
