Upward vs YouTube
YouTube is a public video network. Upward hosts business videos on your own page with CRM tracking.
THE SHORT ANSWERYouTube is built for audience discovery and is ad-supported, which can surface other creators next to your video. Upward hosts business videos on your own Bio/Profile Page, keeps viewers in your journey, and connects viewing to leads in your CRM.
