Anyone with experience with Vibrant? How does it work? How would you use it? What effects should you see?
Is this just another Bacteria additive to the tank? Different than Bacto Balls, or Dr. Tim's Waste Away or new Gels?
Anyone have any input on this?

There is a long thread here on Vibrant with lots, and I mean lots. of great information. In short, yes. It works. Follow the instructions. Go slow. Make sure to export its waste by doing or continue to do water changes. It works very well. You will see a few posts in there from me in which case I noticed it working in less than 24 hours. I also have pictures whereas the GHA came back with a vengeance due to me not doing water changes and removing nutrients.

just fyi, vibrant doesn't work on all types of algae.
if you don't see results within a few weeks, try fluconazole instead.

Any experience with the other stuff? Do these things all work differently? There seems to be a good 10 or more Bacterial solutions / gels / powders / liquids / balls / capsules

I will say after an extreme bubble and green hair algae outbreak. I started dosing g vibrant on September 6th. I dosed twice a week and as of today almost all the BA and gha is gone.

I had a absolute take over of BA in my 180, was in everyone hole of my rock, between rocks, in overflows, etc. It cost me a bunch of zoas but it did in fact work. I also kept my params in order and increased my snail population a little bit.
