What's the difference between SmartVideo and Wistia?

SmartVideo and Wistia solve different problems. Wistia is built for marketing teams that need heavy video analytics, heatmaps, and A/B testing. SmartVideo is built for fast, clean video delivery on your site without third-party branding.

Wistia excels at A/B testing multiple videos on landing pages for PPC campaigns, but it's overly complex and expensive when you just need to serve high-quality videos on your site.

To access an unbranded Wistia player, plans start at $99/month and include only 10 videos. SmartVideo has no cap on the number of videos you can upload - plans are priced by monthly views instead, with generous view allotments on every tier.

✅ Why SmartVideo Wins

Upload as many videos as you want – we charge on monthly views, not video count

Straightforward setup – no bloated toolset to navigate

Much lower cost – ideal for brands focused on content delivery, not video analytics or ads
