# Tella vs Vidyard

> Tella gives you Vidyard's enterprise-grade analytics and SSO with a full AI editor and cleaner recording. No quote-on-request pricing or CRM-heavy focus.

Vidyard is an enterprise video platform built for sales and marketing. It has deep viewer analytics, conversion funnels, CRM integrations, SAML SSO, custom CNAMEs, and batch upload — but the editor is intentionally minimal (trim and split), there's no transcript editing, no auto-zoom, no auto-layouts, no filler word removal.

Tella delivers the same enterprise-grade analytics, SSO, custom domains, and password protection with a full AI editor and cleaner recording — without Vidyard's quote-on-request paid tiers or CRM-first framing.
