- No published player weight or page-speed figures
Common questions
What is the best alternative to Open.Video?
There is no single best one. The 13 tools below are grouped by editorial tier and listed A to Z inside each tier. 11 score above Open.Video's 3.4/5 and 2 below it. Which suits you depends on your publication's size, revenue model and vertical.
Why would a publisher move away from Open.Video?
Our editors flagged: Programmatic ads run on Ezoic's ad stack and need an application; Payouts are quarterly, about 35 days after each quarter closes; No published player weight or page-speed figures. Whether those matter depends on your setup — many publishers run Open.Video successfully despite them.
Are these alternatives ranked by paid placement?
No. Every tool here is grouped by editorial tier and listed A to Z within each tier — there is no position to buy. Scores are set by SODP's editorial team against each category's published criteria, and vendors cannot pay for inclusion, for a score, or for a position on this page.
