Restream G2 reviews

Effortless LinkedIn Streaming with Restream

I use Restream to connect to LinkedIn simply and efficiently, avoiding complicated tools like OBS. It allows me to view chats and present on one screen, making live stream management easier. Pros: I use Restream specifically for LinkedIn Live presentations, and it helps me connect to LinkedIn without needing complicated tools like OBS. I find it very simple and efficient. It also allows me to view the chats while I'm doing a live stream, which is helpful. On one screen, I can see my chat and present at the same time, enabling me to monitor both and see how things are moving along. The initial setup was very easy because linking LinkedIn to Restream is a straightforward process, nothing complicated. Cons: The cost. To make the annual subscription worth it, doing presentations more than once a month would be better.

Restream Makes Multi-Channel Streaming Look Professional

all our events/webinars are livestreamed on it, couldn't do it any other way Pros: Pretty much everything from the live stream itself to connecting to all the social media channels we're streaming to. To deal with all the chat messages we get on the multiple channels, because Restream aggregates everything into the same chats and we can see all the messages and reply to them live. To also just make the whole stream very professional looking, because we can set up custom scenes, use our own branding, use countdowns, and so on. And it's really awesome that after the stream we just get automatic clips that we can share on social media and point people towards the stream, but also get additional content just generated on autopilot. Cons: Just the price but I'm ok with it, it's worth it

Intuitive Livestream Platform with Outstanding Customer Service Support

Restream helps me go live on multiple social media platforms seamlessly, expanding my reach and audience. I can also create engaging short videos instantly, without needing to buy expensive editing software. This saves me money and time, and makes it much easier to connect with my audience wherever they are. Pros: The product is incredibly intuitive and easy to use - setting scenes or customizing the design, integrating with multiple live stream platforms without hassle, and generating instant AI-powered short videos to capture the best moments. The customer service is outstanding. Responsive, helpful, and committed to providing support until the issue is fully resolved. Cons: I would recommend providing timely communications to users if there are major changes to the interface.

Intuitive Livestreaming, Effortless Setup

I find Restream makes going live easy, even for guests not used to livestreaming, with its streamlined interface. This ease results in a smoother production process, freeing me to invite better guests, even those traveling, and ensures they're comfortable during the stream. Pros: I think I have to say the ease of use is great. On top of that, the interface is very modern and slick, providing everything I need without becoming cumbersome with unnecessary features. It's not overengineered, which is a big plus. I also love the fact that the recording quality is high, allowing me to easily repurpose my previous recorded content. Cons: I can't think of anything right now.

Reliable Multistreaming with Overlays, Guest Links, and Unified Chat

It really removes the complexity of streaming to multiple platforms at once. Rather than juggling separate streams or relying on technical workarounds, I can run everything from a single dashboard. Pros: Being able to stream to multiple platforms at the same time from a single setup is the biggest draw for me. The Studio feels solid for a browser-based tool, especially with overlays, guest links, and a unified chat all in one place. My streams have been reliable—it just works. Cons: Timezone handling has a few quirks, but aside from that there isn’t much to complain about.

Easy Interface, Flexible Customization, and Straightforward Pricing

I can quickly set up a new streaming event on multiple channels without needed to go to each one individually. Saves me a ton of time and it's a great value for what you get. Pros: Easy to understand interface. Good customization options to tailor the screen to look the way you want it to. Easy to understand pricing model that doesn't bait & switch you after you've onboarded. Easy to integrate with your existing streaming channels. Cons: Text for the names/labels can be hard to read. It needs font size customization. The "AI clip generator" isn't that good.

Effortless Multi-Platform Streaming with Exceptional AI-Powered Support

Easily stream to multiple platforms (Facebook & YouTube) in order to increase our engagement with congregation members Pros: Easily allows us to stream to multiple platforms. Product support has been excellent. Can quickly get in touch with support personnel. I was originally skeptical, but their AI support tool is incredibly helpful. Cons: The only weakness that I can think of at this time is the ability to upload a thumbnail for an upcoming stream doesn't appear to work correctly. This could be as much to do with a weakness of the streaming platform(s).

Professional and User-Friendly Streaming Solution

Restream keeps my content alive even when I'm busy or sleeping, offers professional and user-friendly features, and improves video quality compared to OBS. Pros: I use Restream for streaming music videos, and I like that it keeps my content alive even when I'm busy or sleeping. I find it professional and user-friendly. I really value the opportunity to loop a video or stream a playlist, and it's simple to use with an excellent support system. Cons: The number of videos to be uploaded can be increased.

Schedule tool is a life-saver

We used to stream directly from OBS several times a week, which required a lot more hands-on work. It also relied on our somewhat instable internet connection. Pros: The scheduler tool makes automating a livestream simple. It's also great for streaming to multiple platforms, such as Facebook Live and YouTube Live. The support we received while having an issue was also prompt and comprehensive (they have 24/7 chat support). Streaming from their servers, using Scheduler, is also a great solution if you have somewhat spotty internet reception (which we have). We used to get regular disconnects or would have to severely throttle back our quality, now it's just simple and straightforward and we don't have to worry about any of that. It's great! Cons: There's a charge for the main service and then an additional charge for Scheduler. Scheduler is one of the main reasons why we went with this software, and will most likely be well worth the $49 extra per month. It just removes so much manpower from the streaming process when it's all automated. We just check in on the software as we're going live to double check everything is set where it needs to be, then we just sit back and let it go. We did have a random disconnect at one point, which may have had to do with our video bitrate. Their support team was helpful in diagnosing the problem.

Makes it an easy broadcast but hate Branding

If you stream live events, you'll know what a hassle maintaining an audience is. Not only do you have a high channel capacity in place, what with multiple computers pumping content across the web, but you also have to handle the viewers coming in through your stream. This is a very difficult task, especially if you want to have an interactive audience. This is the first of the main benefits the Restream add-on for OBS grants the user. Not only does it help broadcast your live stream to a much larger audience, but it also manages the stream for you. This means you'll never have to worry about stopping, starting or stopping your stream for your viewers again. Not to mention that it's also incredibly easy to set up. You can sit back and relax while your audience rises. Pros: I can't say enough good things about restream.io! After using xSplit for a long while, I was having some problems with bandwidth so I was looking around for something that would allow me to multi-stream my streams more effectively. Since I was already using OBS, I knew it would be an easy transition to use Restream. It's so easy to set up and only takes a few minutes to get going. I was able to immediately get 0-lag and was also able to try out a lot of different bandwidth settings to make sure I was getting the most effective one for my situation. Since the views of our broadcasts have increased and donations have increased significantly and I don't have to worry about whether or not I should be streaming on one platform or another. I highly recommend checking out restream.io, you're going to love it! Cons: Restream provides a very useful service for people who want to stream but they need to make some improvements on their branding. The branding on the site is too much and it makes it seem too corporate and not personal. Also, the website isn't very interactive and the colors are not as vibrant as they could be. However, It is a very useful tool and it is very easy to use.

The #1 multi-platform streaming service! You won't look back, EVER!

The biggest problem to grow an audience is to be able to put yourself in front of as many eyeballs as possible. This becomes especially difficult when your audience is spread across multiple websites/platforms. With Restream, it becomes easy to put yourself in front of audiences in over 30 platforms. You can later use the data to find out which platforms are doing well and what time of the day/week is better for different platforms. This way, you're able to reach the right audience at the right time. Also, being able to seamlessly connect the chat from different platforms is a godsend. Never have to worry about missing out on another message or wonder if we've missed anything. Pros: For someone who was looking for a platform to be able to stream to multiple websites, without having the overhead to be able to do it locally, Restream came as a big help. I did not need server grade hardware to stream to multiple platforms, just one stream that I send to Restream that is then sent out to ALL connected platforms. The ability to see chats from all these different platforms in one location is something I love about Restream. The only thing I need to worry about is the ability to send one good stream to the main service. Everything else just falls in place without me having to lift a finger. Cons: The inability to stream to a Facebook page on the free version is a let down. For someone who is just starting out, it might be difficult to pay a monthly bill when the customer acquisition cost is already worrisome. But it is not a detriment to growth because the free plan will suffice for 95% of all first time users. It would also help to be able to stream to Facebook page when you have less than 100 followers, which would make it easier for those entering the market.

The best multistreaming service

Restream is very easy to use. It helps me reach more audience because I can stream my live videos to all of my desired platforms at once. Multistreaming is very handy and Restream is the only service that provides high quality. Pros: Due to Restream Social Alerts, I don’t have to manually copy and paste the links of my live streaming - Restream does that automatically once I go live. The Dashboard is very simple and the onboarding process was very easy. Especially now that Restream has this new Restream GoLive feature, I am going to come back to this service once I need to multistream. This feature enables me and my clients to go live right from the webcam. It is easier than installing an encoder. Restream support team is amazing. Whenever I had a question, I just asked it in their website live chat and got a quick response from their 24/7 live chat support team. Cons: I am not a heavy user so all the features I am using, are quite satisfactory for me. There is nothing I don’t like about what I have with this multistreaming service. When I was using an encoder, the setup process was not easy for me. This is because I am not a tech person. I would like to get more guidance on this. There is lots of information on the dashboard, but maybe a gif, a short video tutorial or something like that would be better.

Need to 'live' stream on multiple platforms? Restream is what you need

Due to the global Coronavirus (COVID 19) pandemic, the church needed to be able to 'live' stream services. However, the internet connection in the church is terrible and was not up to the job, and Restream gives us the ability to record our services and then stream them as if they were live. The streaming service they provide has meant that we have been able to continue to have our services throughout the pandemic and even increased the number of people who have been able to participate in them. Pros: Restream gives us the ability to multi-stream 'live' to both YouTube and Facebook simultaneously without needing to use any OBS software installed on a local computer Cons: The one thing I dislike about Restream's Scheduler is that it needs any pre-recorded videos over 2GB to be uploaded and scheduled at least 2 hours before streaming is scheduled to start.

The most live streaming platforms support

I primarily live stream to YouTube, but I wanted to reach other audiences as well without having to sacrifice one over the other. There's a lot of people who only watch Twitch, Mixer is getting more attention & DLive as well. It's helpful to stream on multiple platforms so you can reach more people. Pros: Reastream is extremely helpful for live streaming to multiple platforms & multiple audiences at once. Without their service, it would be impossible without having an exorbitant amount of hardware & internet resources. It is very easy to setup pretty much any service to restream to as well. Support is quite excellent, they respond quickly & are very helpful. Cons: They seem to take quite a while to add chat support for new services. When DLive started getting more popular, it took about an extra month or so for chat to be supported. I really dislike that you have to pay extra to stream to a public Facebook page (not personal) & it's annoying to have to pay for a single custom RTMP, but at least that one makes more sense. They seem to be trying to drop support for Windows 7, since Microsoft themselves are.

The many reasons why Restream is a requirement for being a successful streamer

multi chat, being able to outreach so much better, access to sponsor and promoted content, the speed, work use of restream FTL is working again, i could write a book of all the problems that using restream in continuously solving. NEVER STOP! AMAZING PLATFORM Pros: It works, and works very well, from the little things like having all the chats in one place, to being able to stream to so many networks without having to have 20 computers uploading the same footage. the support team are incredible and i have no idea where i would be as a streamer without the use of the amazing platform. 20/10 will more than highly recommend Cons: support for instagram and facebook channel streaming, i don't know many streamers who like streaming to their walls and i wish i could connect my platforms without having to rely on premium and with the very nice looking facebook streaming platform i really wish it wasn't exclusive to the package

The best service to multistream

I saved time on building my audience on three different platforms. I stayed connected with my viewers and kept track of their comments Pros: SO happy that I'm using Restream! Streaming to 30+ platforms with a touch of a button! Simple setup for an incredibly customizable, innovative and powerful program! I don’t know why I haven’t used it earlier. What I like about Restream 1. The ability to stream to more than 30 platforms 2. The Restream Chat feature 3. The Analytics 4. Real-time channel toggling 5. Restream Monitor I used to stream to Mixer, Twitch and YouTube at the same time and Restream was the best service for doing so. Due to it, I don’t have to choose only one platform for streaming my content. Restream is easy to use and they are constantly updating the features, making improvements. As I stream to three platforms at once, I have lots of viewers and commenters from all these three platforms. To keep the communication going, I am using Restream Chat to monitor and reply to comments from Mixer, Twitch and YouTube. OBS integration and social media announcement post setup are two easy integrations I would like to point out. Restream makes using the services and features really easy, with minimal effort or issues. I used Restream for almost two years and will be using it again in the future, when I come back to creating live video content. Cons: Initially, when I wanted to stream to Facebook, too, the Live Event setup rarely worked with any issue. Besides, I had to pay for all Facebook features. I now know that streaming to Facebook groups and personal pages is free but haven’t tried going live on this platform yet.

Easy, Stable Platform with Great Support and Integrations

Allows us to connect with our community in real time, putting them in direct touch with experts and having real time discussions. Pros: Easy and intuitive interface, ample integrations, very extensive help resources, fast & friendly support that always gives very straightforward answers. The platform is very stable and has multiple failover options in case your internet is flaky. The price is quite affordable on a yearly level for individuals or small teams. Cons: I don't have anything to mention in particular.

Smooth, Straightforward Streaming with Restream’s Feature-Rich Toolkit

Retream helps me live stream on multiple platforms. Pros: Once you get used to Restream, it becomes really easy to manage. It has many good features that are excellent to “play” with while you’re online, and they make the whole experience feel smooth and straightforward. I´m happy with the price of Restream, I feel I get a good value for the money. Cons: I haven’t encountered anything I dislike about Restream so far.

Great Product For Streaming On YouTube & Twitch

Restream gave me an easy way to stream on YouTube and Twitch, and save my streams Pros: + Easy Setup: Way easier than trying to figure out implementation on OBS and ensure it works. + Saves Streams: Streams are automatically saved, making them easy to download! + Customer Support: Had a question about their features and their support responded extremely fast in live chat and was extremely detailed. Great support! Cons: - Doesn't Save Streams Over 6 Hours On Free Plan: I had a stream go over 6 hours while trialing Restream and needed to download it. Unfortunately, they don't save them over 6 hours on the free plan!

Great tool for streaming of LinkedIn & YouTube Live events

The ability to connect with our prospects and customers directly on social media and stream simultaneously to multiple platforms with ease. Pros: The ability to stream simultaneously to multiple platforms with ease. The seamless integration with LinkedIn and YouTube Live has been very convenient, allowing us to reach a wider audience without additional effort. The user-friendly interface, easy-to-understand scheduling feature, real-time analytics, and live chat integration make the overall streaming experience a breeze. Cons: The customization options for stream overlay fonts. Occasional minor latency issues can occur, although they are rare and did not significantly impact our overall streaming quality.

Simple Design, Great Price, and Reliable Streaming Service

we are a smallish church with minimal budget. restream allows us to stream to facebook and youtube with minimal effort. Pros: The design is simple, and the price is very good. Setup for streaming was quick, and the service has been reliable. the one time i needed assistance my question was answered effeciently and respectfully Cons: nothing so far. the service is everything we need at the moment.

Versatile solution for multi-streaming live and prerecorded video

Restream allows us to share Zoom-based live performances on multiple social media channels (Zoom's built-in API allows only one destination), and these destinations can include not only our own channels via Restream's API options but also others via the RTMP options. Pros: Restream makes it easy to send a single livestream to multiple destinations, it consolidates chat comments from all destinations into a single thread, and it makes it possible to schedule streams in advance. Standout features: it can receive and pass along RTMP data from other sources (such as Zoom), and it's possible to upload video for scheduled livestreams of prerecorded video content. Restream's tech support is also quite responsive. Cons: Restream's subscription tiers are a bit pricey compared to its closest competitor, Streamyard, especially when it comes to getting rid of branded backgrounds and watermarks in Live Studio, Restream's in-the-box production option. The latest features that allow integration of both RTMP source data and custom overlays and branding are only available at a higher tier.

It Just Keeps Getting Better

The ability to repurpose video content by live streaming previously recorded videos greatly benefits our organization. We have a global audience, and having the ability to schedule a stream for different time zones is enormous. Restream also makes it very easy to bring in multiple guests via browser, which minimizes technical complications. Pros: I originally purchased a lifetime subscription to Restream to stream to multiple platforms simultaneously and to live stream pre-recorded videos. Both features are rock solid. In addition, Restream continued its Live Studio development, which has been a huge bonus! They continue adding features that make live streaming easy and professional to this day. Cons: I consistently have issues with my live video streams freezing for a few seconds at a time. I can't say for sure whether the bottleneck is on my end or theirs. I have plenty of bandwidth, and I rarely have this issue when using other live video services such as Skype or Facetime video Messenger.

Great Solution for multi platform livestreaming

We can connect to new live-streaming platforms like LinkedIn and can also broadcast to multiple platforms at once. Restream has some nice features that unify chat and title changes across all your broadcast locations. Pros: Restream makes it very easy to stream one broadcast to multiple live streaming platforms. I originally started using restream as they were one of only a few options for the beta of LinkedIn live. I found it easy to connect my LinkedIn profile as well as other platforms such as Twitch, YouTube, and Twitter. Connecting accounts is easy and quick. Support has been very helpful the times I've needed to contact them. Cons: The integration with LinkedIn often disconnects, and I get no indication of this until after we have gone live. I wish there was some kind of verify accounts function I could run before we start streaming. Some platforms don't allow you to connect the broadcast midstream. I wish they would better support Instagram and TikTok. The only ways I've found to stream to these platforms are hacky and unreliable for regular broadcasting.

Restream is a hassle free way to Livestream on multiple platforms

Restream allows me to go live on YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn and other platforms at once. The chat features allow to reply to chats from within Livestream studio. The integration with OBS is also a plus for me. Pros: The interface of Restream is user friendly and all the options to go live is right there on the dash board. It is easy to add destinations and from within the Restream dashboard all the Titles can be updated.Restream allows easy livestreaming to multiple platforms like YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook Group, FB Page or Individual account, Twitter, and RTMP destinations. It also aalows Chat overlay to highlight chat during streaming. I can also use my custom logo and banner. Cons: The pricing can be a little low for starters. A companion mobile app would be an added bonus. The website even though works on mobile does to seem to be too mobile friendly.

A solid and stable option to do multiple streams directly from your browser

At the time I was using it presented the unique solution for small-time content producers and influencers to stream one piece of content into multiple platforms at a time without having to worry about "hurting" each platform's natural algorithm. Pros: The well-established and solid functionality of the tool, started out when multistreaming was devoted to the gaming industry and one could figure out what the need was to be able to stream to multiple Facebook pages and then youtube! They have continuously improved the platform and made it more easy to use. Cons: I personally don't agree with their pricing policy, its become prohibitive to scale up in their improvements and new features, while they have kept the casual and trendy appearance it feels as if they have moved towards a more corporate/solid business strategy without keeping in mind the smaller creator

Makes streaming 1, 2, 3 or more...as easy as 1...2...3...!

Being able to get my content to multiple platforms simultaneously allows me to reach a larger audience with great ease. This can present partnership opportunities very rapidly with multiple platforms. Pros: What I love the most is how easy it was and is to get up and running with Restream.IO. Simply start an account, add all your relevant platforms, grab your RTMP keys and away you go! Their chat module makes it easier than ever to have all of your streams communication with one another and you the same with all your viewers (supported and compatible platforms only). With no caps or limits, they make it easy to just get going! Cons: Sometimes connectivity isn't perfect but that is a rarity, nearly all streams will go through and end perfectly, no matter their duration. Managing users across all platforms can also prove very challenging.

Expands your reach simply and reliably without sacrificing quality or community

The biggest benefit I have experienced is that I am not forced to abandon one platform (and its loyal viewers) in favor of another. Thanks to Restream, when I decided to move to Twitch I didn't have to abandon my YouTube audience. I just added Twitch to the list and carried on. It helped bring together the audiences from the various platforms together into a community. The Twitch folks and the YouTube folks could talk to one another via the Restream Chat client with no delay. It also allowed me to test out other platforms without having to sacrifice all the time spent growing an audience. It is a great way to reach more potential viewers while keeping those you already have. Pros: I like the ease of setup, both on Restream itself and with OBS. One stream key for multiple platforms. The chat service also provided by Restream pulls all your chat into one clean, customizable window, yet indicates which platform the viewer is chatting from. It is also nice that so many platforms are included among the options. Twitch, YouTube, Mixer, DLive, etc. Stream to one or stream to all. The service does what it does simply and reliably. Streaming software has also begun integrating Restream. I use the StreamElements streaming software and the Restream chat client integrates seamlessly. Cons: The only issue I have had with the service is the slightly longer chat delay, however Restream Chat seems to have fixed that. There have been instances of loss of quality on occasion. I am nitpicking here, because there really isn't anything that I dislike with the Restream service.

Multistreaming at its finest

Multistreaming to newer audiences, all in one place. It really is quite amazing. I've been able to reach so many more people simultaneously, as opposed to just picking one platform. I started with nvidia's embedded "to facebook" streaming. But that wasn't enough. I couldn't get the interactions I wanted. I did try Mobcrush, and while it was cool, it didn't have near as many options as restream. It really is awesome. Pros: I get to broadcast to the big dogs at the same time. Facebook live, youtube live, twitch, mixer. That's huge. Not having to be selective is truly what the internet is about. I want to reach as many people as possible. This is the best option I have found. I haven't been able to test it's integration with SLOBS, but once I can do that, I have no doubt this is the best streaming/multistreaming option in the world. Cons: The chat isn't perfect. I really feel it takes away from my streaming experience having to have so many other browsers open, just so I can see my chats. The live view is also sluggish. I like to say hello and usually the viewer is already gone. Changing titles is also hit or miss. I have to manually change some things, every time I want to stream. Maybe its a language barrier.

Amazing Restreaming platform

This platform has made it so simple to stream to my different outlets. I think the ability to add the channels then all you have to do is simply click a toggle to change what channels get the stream. Then it has the ability when streaming to Mixer to use the FTL service which is awesome and most of the time Restream is faster then most other streaming platforms alone. Pros: How simple it is to easily update and add the different channels. The ability to have all the analytics from all your accounts in one spot is amazing. It makes it so easy to see how many viewers each platform had while you also can see which one made any revenue as well as which ones did not do as well. It can give you a insight that you cant get easily any other way. It has the ability to run a video at a set time, so a rerun before you go live directing everyone to a certain platform is always helpful as well. Cons: Only dislike is that there are some other channels i would love to have added.

Extra line of safety and quality

It is excellent, it has allowed me to grow quickly and with good training as a creator, in addition to being able to share my content to a wide audience and on different platforms with excellent links. It is an optimal service, I have been able to create and develop my brand, my personality and my name. The best. Pros: I like it, it is very easy to configure, it allows me to publish my live broadcasts with multiple services simultaneously, it also allows me to publish messages through links to the most popular platforms on social networks. It gives you an incredible speed of transmissions. To start running everything is really fast and very easy. Cons: I like everything, it is very complete, and it meets the requirements optimally. Few cons and updates very often.

Restream has been an exception tool for my streaming, recording, connecting to multiple sites, apps

Multi-platform streaming, studio software, recording without going live, ability to add lower thirds, tickers etc. lots of customisations. Ease of use has made my life a lot easier Pros: Restream is very user-friendly and easy to use. It has connected to all my streaming sites including, LinkedIn, and Twitter in addition to YouTube, and Facebook. It can connect to multiple accounts and pages simultaneously even on the same platform (e.g., YT/FB). Cons: I sometimes find these plans not accepting Indian Card Payment system rules set up by the RBI (though a workaround has been given it is a cumbersome process)

Outstanding broadcasting tool

I love how easy it is to broadcast on the fly with this tool. No expensive accounts required, setup is quick and painless, and sharing is super easy. Love how much time this tool has saved me! Pros: Restream was the perfect (and free!) solution to my recent need for a broadcasting tool for an upcoming live webinar. Love the seamless integration with LinkedIn and other platforms. Cons: I've run into a little technical snafu that prevents me from adding the Restream tool onto a LinkedIn event I already scheduled on the LI platform. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I've spent a lot of time researching it and haven't yet found a solution.

Love Restream!

Holding live streams for Reply.io product updates, customer use cases, etc. Pros: Restream is super easy to set up, I didn't need any onboarding. And it turned out to be very reliable! Marketers know how uncomfortable it is to try new tools for important events - all may work when testing, but you never know what may happen with a real session. Restream made us feel confident during the event and it felt like a blessing! Cons: Chat feature is a bit inconvenient - it aggregates chats from all the platforms you are streaming to (which is cool!), but you need to select a platform and a person to respond to and it takes time.

Easy and effective way to stream.

I've been able to reach a much larger audience across multiple platforms in just one go. Restream makes it easy to share my stream to a handful of sites in pretty much one click. Pros: It gives me an easy way to stream to multiple sites simultaneously as well as allowing me to chat with people on these platforms as well with the Restream Chat feature. Overall the service makes it easy to grow my audience. Cons: This isn't as much of an issue with restream as it is with multi-streaming in general. Sometimes it's difficult to keep up with the multiple audiences while multistreaming.

Convenient multi-platform streaming with Restream

I use Restream to stream on multiple platforms simultaneously, which is quite convenient and I liked it. Pros: I use Restream to stream on multiple platforms simultaneously, and it's quite convenient. I like the ease of use and setup, as well as the fact that the price is quite reasonable and not too steep. Cons: Integration into OBS - you need to re-enter every time

Easy tool for professional livestream experience using external device parameters

Restream has been useful as I have scheduled and streamed professional Live events with my company. We have found success using their green room to invite stream guests and seamlessly weave them into Live productions. Pros: I love that Restream makes it easy to connect external cameras and microphones to popular streaming platforms like Facebook Live, YouTube Live, Twitch, and more. Their graphic overlay tools are strong, as well. Cons: I do wish that it would be possible to overlay custom motion animation files. This feature isn't currently possible.

Amazing tool for streaming content to multiple platforms simultaneously

We can now livestream content to our social media accounts, allowing more people to see, share, and engage with our content. Pros: It's super user-friendly, making it VERY easy to link multiple social media platforms. You can also feed live meetings/webinars from zoom and push that feed to your linked platforms in real-time. Restream studio also has a LOT of added features, graphic/text overlay options, etc. for anyone that doesn't want to use Zoom. Cons: Unfortunately, there isn't a way to link Instagram for restreaming, currently.

A very useful tool for streaming live

It’s a good practice to multistream. It’s even better when you do it with Restream.io Pros: 1. Easy to set up 2. Easy to connect to channels 3. Lots of platforms you can connect to 4. No bitrate limit 5. Go live without installing any software Cons: I only had one problem with Restream - the chat didn’t connect with Mixer chat. Then we solved the issue.

Already recommended to friends

I primarily use Picarto as an artist because of the strict content guidelines on Twitch. Restream allows me to forward only my SFW streams to the more popular platform, and makes it easier to communicate with both via Restream Chat. It also has the unexpected benefit of having better server locations for me than Picarto, which makes my stream faster and more stable. Pros: Better server availability, restream chat. Cons: Some trouble with Restream Chat showing messages from Picarto.

The best software for streaming to multiple platforms

The benefit are that you can stream to Facebook and youtube at the same time, and if you want to bring a guest to be in the broadcast, you can also have that option Pros: how easy is to set up the broadcast for multiple platforms and you can see how many views you are getting Cons: I do not like that is not a free software you need to pay for suscribtion

Easy to use, immediate, effective. It plays

streaming on multiple platforms Pros: very short quickstart. up and running in a few seconds Cons: You cannot change time and date of the planned event Sometimes it doesn't apply your timezone on LinkedIn You cannot choose your primary channel of streaming

Restream is a brilliant way to Livestream on multiple platforms

Livestream to multiple social media platforms and YouTube simultaneously saves a lot of hassle and time. Pros: Restream is easy to navigate and connect to my social media platforms. Multiple platforms can be linked, including Facebook pages, Facebook groups, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube. Their studio allows me to add graphic/text overlays. Cons: Unfortunately, there is no option to Livestream on Instagram at the moment.

Versatile Tool for Streaming and Recording

How to record with multiple people all in one place. We use it for skits, podcasts, youtube reviews and more. Pros: I can use it both for streaming and recording. It's a very versatile tool that enables you to do a wide variety of recordings. Cons: It can take a while to get files exported and the to descript feature hasn't worked in so long I stopped using it and just export the file.

Multi-streaming

No problems. Best feature is the ability to stream to multiple channels at once, and not have to take the time to repost. Pros: Easy to set up, and once it's ready, you can stream live to multiple channels at the same time. You can also see and respond to comments and questions from all of the channels while you're live. Cons: Set up could be a bit easier, but it's not too bad.

Stability, support, software company that listens to customers

We have a monetized live video podcast and Restream is number one piece of technology that powers our business. Pros: Support, stability of software, the fact that they actually listen to customers. Cons: It's not a dislike, however: I wish there was support for Croatian language in the automated video transcripts.

Solid platform for streaming

Pre-loading of streams and scheduling Pros: Easy to use and integrate with reasonable pricing Cons: Onboarding was at first a challenge for a novice, but once understood easy to use

Easy and fast platform

Video podcasting is easier with restream Pros: No editing is required. I can play a pre-roll, post-roll and add graphics live Cons: I dislike the fact that there is no automatic transcription.

The Perfect Bridge Between Webcam and Content Delivery Sites

Getting a live stream to as many eyes as possible in the most no nonsense and fair way Pros: It acts a the perfect go between for web cam and content delivery sites. Cons: Limited controls on the unpaid tiers, but that's not really surprising

Great software and team

Streaming to multiple platforms Pros: I like their new product restream studio, it just "works"! Cons: Nothing as of now, the team has been very helpful

Excellent Service

It has helped me reach more viewers in streaming. Pros: I love all the features it packs, and the core features of it being free and easy to use. Cons: I don't have anything I dislike about it, everything is easy to use and works well without any issues.

Enjoying the opportunity to tell my Life and Business stories

Ability to reach possible business contacts Pros: Very easy and instinctive to operate each time Cons: Not being able to pause the discussion and restart

Facilitate Streaming on Facebook, But Price Could Be Improved

Restream made it easy for me to connect the service to stream on Facebook and solve problems I had with Zoom. I also like the ease of use and additional applications like making clips. Pros: I like the ease of using the Restream program. It solved the problem I previously had with Zoom, as it made it easier for me to connect the service. Additionally, I really liked the broadcast to Facebook and the ease of making clips. Cons: I think the price could improve.

Awesome app with amazing features, keep improving adding new updates every month.

I was using OBS, but with Restream I can also schedule the live stream when I am not available online. Pros: There are many alternatives to Restream but In terms of technology and support, I really like the Restream App for multiple streaming at the same time. Restream team is adding new features and updates regularly, they have added Restream Live (Stream Directly from the Webcam), Widgets for your sites and OBS, Facebook Live on Personal page on a free account, LinkedIn live. With everything is going live due to pandemic in 2020, Restream has launched "Restram Studio" with this you can directly broadcast to multiple channels directly from your browser. Not only limited to Gaming but, it is Useful for Online classes, webinars with overlay graphics and company logo. Another great feature I like is you can schedule your live stream with uploaded video, so you don't have to be on camera when online. There are some time and event slot limit, but it is useful feature. Cons: In terms of technology Restream is definitely an awesome tool, but when you host Facebook Live they will add a link to the description like powered by Restream.io for paid users as well, this description needs to be edited manually after going live.

Unreliable and inaccurate features

Restream is supposed to solve the problem of "RESTREAMING" my one single RTMP source to multiple RTMP sources across the web. In my specific case, I was on their top-tier plan and streaming to YouTube, Facebook and a custom Website with an RTMP ingest. Pros: Restream offers a simple ingest solution and a fast creation of channels. If you have a YouTube channel or a Twitch channel, then restream might be a good choice for you. Cons: The restream dashboard offers "stream health" analytics which are inaccurate and sometimes downright wrong. For example, the dashboard can tell you that you are "streaming" when in fact you are not. So, if you use restream to stream to multiple platforms, you better open your stream on every one of those platforms to make sure you are streaming because restream will always say "streaming" but when you look at your Facebook, YouTube and custom RTMP stream, it will be dead. To me, that is unacceptable, but it is not the worst part. When you reach out to their support, they will (every single time) tell you that it must be something you did wrong. As someone who does over three streams daily for multiple companies, this is just not the case. I use vMix Pro and do not mix up settings. I have a team of technicians at my side, and we broadcast from big studios. We are not just some person using a webcam in their bedroom or some amateur who might mix up a frame rate or video codec here and there.

Perfect platform for online events

Restream allows us to stream our event to multiple social platforms with only a few clicks. We also benefit greatly from using the Studio when we host live panel discussions or fireside chats. Pros: Restream is great for streaming to multiple channels at the same time. The live studio is great as well, and the scheduling of videos is awesome, the event can go live without the audience knowing it's pre-recorded. Cons: Some channel integrations are a bit complicated, for example YouTube and Twitter - you have to create an "Event" on twitter for the stream to happen, it fails a lot of the time. The schedule event/video has been updated to better the LinkedIn integration but for our purposes and needs it actually made it worse. If you want to schedule a video you have to create an event and add the video at the same time without the possibility of changing the video later.

Nice Experience

I keep having to connect my mixer account for some reason. It is sometimes asks me to review my mixer account every once and a while. Pros: I really just like the multi stream aspect of it. It is very smooth & intuitive. Cons: Titles Page is my issue. When you i am selecting a game, i cant just type in the game and it comes up automatically. Let's say "Anthem" for example. Because it is a low priority game, i always have to manually type it in for each of my platforms instead of Restream just letting it update all of my titles along with the game of my choosing automatically. So low priority games are my issue.

Great for beginners in live-streaming

The problem Restream helped to solve was live streaming a weekly production online to Facebook and YouTube simultaneously. This allows church members who are unable to attend due to the pandemic, access to still experience church community, and stay up to date on the liturgy. Pros: I used this as a Technology Coordinator for a church congregation's Sunday service live-streaming. I liked that Restream allows you to stream simultaneously to multiple social media platforms from one user interface Cons: It was a bit difficult in the beginning learning the user interface, and it seemed like every time we logged in, there was some delay or issue with the password.

Easy, Affordable Multi-Platform Streaming

I can stream to multiple platforms at once, especially LI which I can't do easily from Zoom Pros: Fairly easy to use, affordable, can stream to multiple platforms Cons: Some of the directions were a bit difficult. Also, could not change everything if you set something up and wanted to edit it.

Restream, its great for what it us, but not for what its not.

We wanted something that could stream a prepackaged video, restream could do that (ie schedule it in advance). Its made more for someone who is live streaming content or conversations, which is great, just not what we where using it for. Pros: Great service with a ton of flexibility when producing video Cons: Its made for streamers not really business who want to stream content or events

Awful customer support. Laggy platform to stream on Linkedin.

Didn't solve any problem. It created me a lot. Pros: Back-end with good UX design so you can easily create an event. Cons: Customer support is the worst I ever talked to. They made our Linkedin Webinar a total disaster.

Great product!

Ability to reach a much larger audience with our live videos by streaming to multiple channels at once. Pros: The ability to add on screen graphics and branding Cons: Not as mobile friendly as I'd like - it would be cool to see an app

Powerful tool that helps us to do all we need to do

Splitting our studio broadcast and simultaneously sending it to eight platforms Pros: Flexibility of the tool, chat boxes on stream Cons: The cost has now become ridiculous and is unsustainable for us

Hello restream Here Daaa

chat is always there with in min or 3 to help me what ever issue i face that is cool Pros: the chat feature with agent always online Cons: when they don't retweet my tweets and when there is less discount lol Hehe jokes a part

A decent software to livestream on multiple platforms!

We switched from streamyard to restream for conducting our annual event this year. While I personally enjoyed scheduling events in the beginning (the interface made it easier for me to figure my way around this software and quickly get the work done) but when we came to connecting it to our event platform stage, it was a hassle. We could only add 10 custom destinations at a time which made my work repetitive on a daily basis as we had many webinars on a single day. While that wasn't a lot of trouble but I had a better experience with streamyard in this aspect - I was able to create the desired number of custom destinations without any maximum cap limit. Pros: Restream is a good enough tool to live stream events on multiple platforms at once. It's easy to use, has a great user interface because of which it is very easy to get around this software. The support team is also quick to respond and that is a very helpful service from their end. My favorite feature, however, of this tool, that sets it apart from its competitors is the streaming monitor. It's great how you can monitor if the live stream is good even without entering the studio. This feature really makes things easy for the whole team. Cons: While it's a good software, this isn't perfect. For its features, I find it a bit expensive and that too with limited options. The second best variant only offers 10 custom destinations at a time which honestly isn't a lot, even for a small-medium scale organization. Even the top-most variant offers only 20 custom destinations, which makes it quite a task to organize simultaneous events. Hence, in terms of its pricing and the features that it offers, I would definitely go ahead with similar tools instead of this one.

Restream it have been a great journey

Audiovisual realization Pros: Multistreaming. It was one of the first of multistream to different RTMPs. Cons: Not enough audiovisual realization features. Far enough from their competitors

Couldn't get Restream to work...

Restream is one of the few platforms I tried to use for my Church's Online Streaming needs. I ultimately went with Restream for its ease of use and cost. I'm sure that if I could have gotten it to work properly, our streaming ability for the Church would have been amazing. Pros: I like the User Interface. It was simple enough to navigate. Restream has a simple way to connect each platform from which to stream. I liked how I can record live or upload a video for later publishing. Cons: With all of its benefits and abilities, I could not get Restream to connect to my computer/system in order to actually stream anything. When I chatted and ultimately called Restream, they were unable to fix my connection. Further, I had paid for the annual subscription, and even though we were working on my issue with connectivity for weeks, they would not refund my subscription without a lot of hassle.

Great Low Budget Streaming Platform - Pain to Setup Streams

We were looking to stream live Q&A sessions to our YouTube and LinkedIn communities Pros: - You can quickly enter the streaming room after a Stream is created. - Restream made connecting to LinkedIn and YouTube reasonably easy. - Restream seems to have an excellent Discord integration, but it's not something we used. Cons: - While we were using the product, it was a pain to set up the stream. You would have to go to YouTube and schedule a live streaming event. Then come back to Restream to connect the scheduled event to a Restream based streaming event. The process was relatively unintuitive. - To my knowledge, after using the service for four months. There is no way to invite multiple people onto your stream. It's just you. - Very limited customizability on the display of YouTube comments during a stream. This feature is something Streamyard does VERY well (we switched to them because of this).

User-Friendly but Limited Storage is a Deal-Breaker

I use Restream to efficiently record and livestream audio and video interviews, then repurpose the content. Its user-friendly setup simplifies the process of live streaming and extracting files for further use on platforms like LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook. Pros: I find Restream highly valuable for my podcast and video content management. The platform's user-friendly interface is incredibly appreciated, which makes recording interviews with guests ahead of time a breeze. It seamlessly integrates with platforms like LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook, allowing me to easily livestream the prerecorded content. I appreciate how straightforward it is to extract audio and video files for repurposing content, enhancing the usability for creating diverse multimedia outputs. The $19 per month plan struck me as cost-effective, meeting all my basic functional needs without breaking the bank. Setting up Restream was a delight, as it was extraordinarily simple to connect to my social channels without any hassle. Restream efficiently addresses the need to record audio and video interviews and allows for livestreaming them later, adding convenience to my workflow. Cons: I'm frustrated with Restream because they don't allow me to store my recordings for more than fifteen days. This limitation forces me to export and then reupload the files to schedule a live event at a later date, which is time-consuming and annoying. Additionally, the video files are too large to reupload within the platform's limits, requiring me to find another program to condense the files. This process is not only cumbersome but also frustrating enough that I decided to cancel my Restream account. I asked them multiple times if they could do anything to help me but their only recommendations was that I upgrade from my $19/month plan to their $199/month plan so that I could store videos for 30 days instead of only 15. This is not feasible for a small business owner like me who doesn't need all the other functionality that comes with that large of a plan.

Multichannel Media Streaming Delivery, but Needs Improvement

Multichannel streaming Pros: multichanel delivery of media streaming! Cons: its pricy for 4K compared to competitors
