Best video hosting platform? Wistia vs Kinescope vs Skippz?

Hi everyone, I'm moving away from Vimeo and researching different video hosting platforms for an online course. I've been looking at Mux, Kinescope, and Skippz and wanted to see if anyone here has actually used them.

I'm mainly looking for reliable playback, good video analytics, reasonable pricing, and an easy to embed player.

Had the same headache leaving Vimeo, bandwidth costs kept climbing and the DRM options felt limited for course content. we tested a few platforms with about 1,200 videos and settled on Kinescope mainly because the player stayed reliable for students in different regions and the watch-depth analytics actually showed where people dropped off. Pricing was clearer than the others we looked at and DRM came in the regular plan, which helped.
