Rebuilding Vitomy: what we’re doing to make Vitomy stronger, and what it will change for our users in the meantime

Posted by vitomy on January 11, 2012 0 Comments

At Vitomy, it’s been an exciting process to build and share a product that’s helped small businesses tackle video in new, innovative ways. We’ve gotten lots of great feedback and insight from our users, and we’ve gotten to know some really cool brands.

Until now, we’ve offered two different paid subscriptions: Premium (for those who felt they needed video hosting services) and YouTube Only (for those who preferred to host their content on YouTube and use Vitomy exclusively for player design).

Over time, it became increasingly apparent to us that the power of Vitomy really rested in player design. As a result, we’ve decided to tear Vitomy down and build it back up — better, faster, stronger, and more focused on meeting the needs of marketers who are looking for a way to brand their YouTube content.

Unfortunately, this means that our users’ Vitomy players will become inactive and their videos will become inaccessible on Vitomy. For this, we apologize. But it’s all for the sake of delivering a product that meets the needs and expectations that you’ve communicated to us over the life of this young platform.

We’ll be shutting down Vitomy completely on February 10, 2012. All players and videos will no longer appear, and you will not be able to log into your account. We will not be charging our paying subscribers for renewals occurring between now and February 10, so you will have that long to continue using your account, if necessary.

In the meantime, you can use this form to let us know you want a heads-up when the new and improved Vitomy is up and running.

Thanks,
The Vitomy Team
