Shout out to mux. We are not quite using it heavily yet for our company but I have been reviewing them for over a year. Mux is the best balance between a very rigid platform (like vimeo) and building your own. Using mux, you can build your own vimeo for example. We run edtech and mux is going to be our choice for video lessons. I personally have dabbled with encoding etc using ffmpeg but it is a whole different story doing it in a production environment.

I do have some additional feature request for mux like restricting by IP or http_referrer etc as a nice to have but otherwise, it is solid.

A closer competitor that I evaluated is Cloudflare stream but they are a bit more abstract than mux. So less controls on the player etc compared to mux where you come up with your own player.
