Which one should you pick?
Pick Brandfolder if
You’re building around enterprise marketing teams. Brandfolder is the enterprise DAM Smartsheet bought to lock in the upmarket — beautiful for big marketing teams managing thousands of approved brand assets, total overkill for a podcast network that just needs to share show art and sponsor reads. If you're price-shopping under $1,000/mo, look elsewhere.
Pick Vidyard if
You’re building around b2b video outreach. Vidyard pivoted hard into sales-team video over the last few years and the pricing reflects it, Starter at $59/user/month, Teams at $99/user/month, Enterprise on quote. Best for B2B sales teams sending personalised video to prospects; expensive overkill for content podcast workflows.
