## Onstream Live Reviews
  ### 1. Not an easy user interface

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joseph Z. | Director of Whatever Needs Doing, Non-Profit Organization Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 14, 2017

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

It seemed to have some nice features, however the interface was difficult to use and understand initially. Coming from platforms that I use regularly like gotowebinar and zoom, this was not what I was expecting.

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

I needed a platform that I could easily share videos, powerpoints, documents, etc in a webinar. This was advertised as such, however every time I tried to do so in the trial version, it would not allow the videos to upload for me.

**Recommendations to others considering Onstream Live:**

Onstream can be useful to those that want a no frills webinar platform, the problem I have is that other platforms are available on the market that offer better, easier and less expensive services and platforms like zoom and gotomeeting. I am going back to use zoom. 

**What problems is Onstream Live solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are a non-profit organization that uses webinars as an education tool for an industry certification. Having video sharing and file sharing is important to what we need.

I used the software just for webinars and I'm not sure if I noticed anything missing in that part. From my point of view it's ok.

  ### 7. Review

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 12, 2017

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

Had a lot of the sharing features I was looking for - switch presentors, easy access for people to login, recording

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

Very difficult to use.  If I recall, other attendees could see the other attendees names when emailed.  When I send out an invite, I don't want everyone to have everyone else's emails.  

**Recommendations to others considering Onstream Live:**

I need to review again

**What problems is Onstream Live solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Connecting with my customers and sales team.  Honestly, I need to review the system again.  It's been a couple of months and am now in search of a new platform.

  ### 8. Didn't work at all!

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Individual & Family Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2017

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

Nothing; it did not work for anyone around the world

  ### 9. Onstream Webinar Review

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Moya. S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 18, 2016

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

I like that it hosts webinars on it's own platform. Not like Google Hangout or YouTube Live.

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

It seems a little difficult to understand. I have started a webinar and I tried to log out or end the webinar. And I wanted to test it out before hand. Maybe I needed a video demo. I saw it on webinara, but I didn't know why I had to do it through webinara?

**Recommendations to others considering Onstream Live:**

A demo video just about the product not related to webinara. Because I imagine I can just give my link to my attendees and not go through webinara...

**What problems is Onstream Live solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I want to host webinars to get more prospects. I am having trouble understanding how to do a webinar through onsteam. I have tried Gotowebinar and their interface is very simple which is also hosted on their platform. I was just interested in something that cost less and just as easy to navigate. And I liked that I could easily use an app through onstream.

Shirley Muhleisen

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

 We did not have any issues setting up and customer service was responsive

**What problems is Onstream Live solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A way to remotely train participants prior to event, who are coming in from various locations, so that time is not taken up training at the event itself. . We were able to move on to the work immediately, without having to schedule another in person meeting to train.

  ### 15. Amazing tool with unique features

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2016

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

the best part is the branding tool. It is really a unique feature, no other webinar system has it at this level. If you want something completely branded with the right logoes and colors of your company, onstream is what you need. I've tried every other webinar system around, many claim to have a branding tool, but it's nothing compared to this. And onstream is the only system you can directly embed into your site, at every level of prices.
another really cool tool is the List and the reminder system. Very useful and effective, also completely branded. 
The prices, too, are really affordable.

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

unfortunately, the desktop/app sharing is not fluid as I would have like it.
since I do art related webinar I need my audience to see what I'm drawing on my cintiq. it was almost impossible: the resolution of the sharing is very high, but the frame rate is low, and the drawing proceeds twitching, not flawlessly.
this is the only onstream thing that doesn't work for me. I also partecipated to a demo webinar and the guy has been super kind, but there were nothing he can do about this.
there are other webstreaming services that do this right, like zoom and cisco system, but they lack in everything else.
a shame, just for that little bug I can't use onstream because the flawless of my sharing is my top priority. 
  

**What problems is Onstream Live solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm creating a LIVE community of comic artists with my company, I needed a tool that looked cool, modern and easy to use. also completely branded and embedded in my site.

Simple to learn, intuitive graphic interface. Reliable connection. Easy to customize dashboard and share screens and documents.

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jessica P. | Training Support Coordinator, Automotive, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2016

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

We were Infinite Conferencing customers and were very pleased with the service before the merge happened - we were upset to see our Sales Manager leave and then things went down-hill with our service from there.

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

We were charged/billed for contacting technical support for assistance.  This was as issue on Onstream's side and we, the customer, were billed for it.  Customer support/technical support did not fully answer our questions; we had audio/technical issues with having multiple presenters attend webinars and muting issues of attendees.  Not a pleasant experience.  

**Recommendations to others considering Onstream Live:**

N/A

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2016

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

Simplicity, intuitive interface and no plugin to install on a PC.

  ### 40. Love working with Onstream - so professional

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dr. Liz Alexander/ C. | Co-founder, Management Consulting, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2016

**What do you like best about Onstream Live?**

On the two occasions I've worked with Onstream to produce webinars on my topics of thought leadership and ideation, I've had exemplary experiences. My primary contact is Beth Klein who is always so helpful and responsive. 

The interface is easy to use and provides what I believe is a great connection between me and the audience.  I typically include a few "poll questions" during the webinars to encourage engagement as well use the Q&A field. 

What I like especially about the current design of the screen is how I can either appear in the top left hand box via my webcam or provide a static picture that can be changed as needed throughout the presentation. 

When you're the subject matter expert but not especially proficient technologically, it's a great comfort to know you have the Onstream team behind you. They make me look good -- for which I'm incredibly grateful and look forward to working with them again soon. 

**What do you dislike about Onstream Live?**

I had originally typed "can't think of anything," which pretty much sums up what I think. I'm supposed to type over 40 characters, but I think this will do it :-)

**Recommendations to others considering Onstream Live:**

From the exemplary software to the warm and wonderful human beings behind it, I cannot recommend working with Onstream highly enough. I have had exceptional experiences and results every time. 

**What problems is Onstream Live solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As I mentioned above, I don't want to have to worry about the technological aspects of connecting with and engaging my audience...Onstream takes care of that for me. One of the major benefits is that they ensure I offer a highly engaging, professional-looking presentation so that all I need to focus on is the content. 

The other joy for me is the fact that Onstream has partnered with another organization so that they largely take care of the promotion of the event. I know I am attracting a much larger audience (including global) than I would on my own.

OnStream Webinars is easy to use for both the moderator and participants.  It works with little effort on every platform we've used.

Participants cannot select their own breakout room.  The moderator must move all participants to the desired room.
