Also, once your publish your videos, it will show the rankings of the tags used. So interesting\! > > **Cons**: Nothing much in the part, I just wish the product was offered for FREE. Although it offers a freemium plan, but there's many limitations with the free version of the product. > > As a youtube video creator, I've used VidIQ to optimize the title, description, and tags for my videos. It offers a range of SEO optimized titles and tags that could make your video show up on the Youtube search results. Overall, a great experience using it. ----- ### "Like having a YouTube strategist in your pocket" — 5.0/5 > **Gabby** | *April 9, 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Pros: Great keyword research and SEO tools for finding video ideas Helpful competitor analysis and channel audit features Easy-to-use browser extension that saves time Good for brainstorming titles, tags, and content ideas The free plan offers enough value to get started > > **Cons**: Cons: The paid plans can be expensive, especially for smaller creators Some of the AI-generated suggestions and title ideas can feel generic There is a learning curve because there are so many features and data points More advanced features are locked behind higher-priced plans > > I’ve had a positive experience with vidIQ overall. It’s a helpful tool for growing a YouTube channel because it gives you keyword research, competitor analysis, title ideas, and SEO suggestions all in one place. I especially like the browser extension because it shows useful data directly inside YouTube while I’m planning or uploading videos. Overall, I would recommend vidIQ, especially for newer YouTubers or creators who want more guidance and structure. It is not a magic solution, but it can save a lot of time and make it easier to improve your videos and grow your channel when used alongside a strong content strategy. ----- ### "Vid IQ Good with Reservations to their AI usage business model. $$$" — 3.0/5 > **Reno** | *May 23, 2026* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Analysis thru visibility access to my YT channel. VidIQ can access KPI data for each video and make recommendations for future strategies, title descriptions etc. > > **Cons**: limited AI credits per month - Ai usage requires far more use than the monthly credits allowance. Once depleted, you will have to pay more for additional credits. We all know Ai isnt full proof and takes several query angles to have a robust experience. > > VidIQ is worth a base level subscription for anyone looking to fine tune and grow their Youtube content creation experience. Beyond that, the Ai becomes a money drain and I would suggest getting a Pro level subscription to Chat or Claude, use it for long queries, story board creations etc. Save you Ai credits in Vid IQ for very short and specific tasks. ----- ### "Really beneficial tool\!" — 4.0/5 > **Maddie** | *January 22, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Vid IQ has been an extremely useful tool for our digital marketing team. It's very easy to use, and the seamless integration with platforms has been very helpful in making real-time changes based on title scoring. The analytics also closely tracking YouTube subscribers is nice because we get constant milestone updates sent right to our inbox. > > **Cons**: I think vid IQ gives really great alternate title options for YouTube videos, and including a score system is great, but sometimes what they recommend is too long, so it does not always work. > > Our team has been using Vid IQ for about a year now and has definitely noticed a difference in how we are analyzing data based on the new information regularly available to us. ----- ### "Juice not worth the squeeze" — 3.0/5 > **Mike** | *March 10, 2026* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: It offers solid suggestions for improving videos. It shows highly searched keywords and offers improved title suggestions. > > **Cons**: Wonky. Slowed my PC to a crawl. Waited 40 minutes for a 16:00 to upload and just got spinning circle. The Remix feature forced me to use their recommended thumbnail, you can't pick and choose what recommendations to adopt. > > VERY FRUSTRATING\! It seems like there's good intel with this but useablility is lacking. My IT folks helped improve performance slightly by disabling some Chrome functions but my PC is still VERY SLOW. I was forced to install \& uninstall the Chrome extension repeatedly. A huge time suck. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/182133/vidiq?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/182133/vidiq) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
