OBS does a lot of things well, but it truly is the most dependable RTMP streaming encoder that I've ever used. It's free, it's full-featured, it offers fantastic diagnostic data, and (despite the general perception to the contrary) it's actually very easy to learn and to teach. Writing from the perspective of someone who has served thousands of streaming venues in all shapes and sizes: money spent making OBS run better will have a better ROI than money spent on a hardware encoder, 100% of the time in my experience.

The only ways in which I believe OBS really needs to improve are in:

- offering native support for multiple simultaneous outputs

- offering real-time telemetry graphs and better telemetry for SRT streams

- offering audio output alongside the virtual camera output Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

OBS is extremely easy to install and set up, which is a big relief for IT professionals like me, who often struggle with software installations. The best part is that OBS is free, so my company doesn't have to spend money on screen capture software. I can use OBS to capture audio, video, gaming, displays, texts, and more.

Since I only use it for recording and not streaming, I may not be aware of all the product features, but so far, I haven't found anything to dislike about OBS. The only minor issue I faced initially was deciding what to capture because the display capture feature offers so many options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used obs studio and its feature is great and blown my mind. It is open source and giving that i need. It's screen voice recording is also a great and that I used in alternative of loom. I have also used 2 screens in single view, but the App can manage more than 5 screens is also a great feature I ever seen. Video size in compare of other app is also a smaller and having multiple option to generate it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
