Improve UI of Video CMS

The Video CMS UI is really confusing.
It's so unclear what Collection you are looking at, and what Playlist you are looking at.
The Playlist area is also really small.

I'm really sorry, but the new UI is also really difficult to use, just like the old one. You have put all this time in to it, but it's still so confusing to use.
"Overview" and "Video Library" show 80% the same things, but in a different layout. Both have Import, Channels and Playlists, then one has Analytics and one has Player settings. Why not combine them?
The Overview is not an overview at all.
The Collections dropdown is not obvious to use on each page.
Collections Tab is not a Collections tab at all - it's just a Collections setting page.
Etc.

You need to break out "Video Library" in to a Tab, and "Settings" in to a tab.
You need to be able to access Settings for certain pages from those pages.
Please just build a basic folder hierarchy structure like Windows folders. Put collapsible parent folders with child sub-folders underneath.
PLEASE work with a UI designer to improve this.
It is SO HARD to use Gumlet because of the UI.
I am really sorry to be negative about this. It's just so hard to use. 🙏

Thanks for pointing it out. However, for collection, it's on the top-right side.
For playlists, it's on the left side.
I have attached a screenshot for your reference.

Anshul Thanks.
The problem is, the Collections dropdown area is so small. It's not easy to navigate if you have a number of Collections - you can only see 4 at a time!
Why not make a simple file menu structure on the left, or a large icon folder structure.
The dropdown is so small.
Also, clicking "Video Library" should take you to a home page that shows you all your Collections (Folders) and Playlists (Subfolders).

Anshul And, like, why are "Collections" under "Advanced"? It makes no sense.

Anshul Or, for example, why are the Collections settings on a completely different area than the Collection itself? It should all be accessible from the same area.
It's a very confusing UI.
Hopefully that's helpful. :-)

We are working on these areas. New CMS will come in next 2 months.
