"A decent software to livestream on multiple platforms!"

3/5

What do you like best about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Restream solving and how is that benefiting you?

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.

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

4/5

What do you like best about Restream?

Great service with a ton of flexibility when producing video Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

Its made for streamers not really business who want to stream content or events Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Restream:

Its a great service for what its made to do, was very reliable and had some cool features for streamers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Restream solving and how is that benefiting you?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing tool for streaming content to multiple platforms simultaneously"

5/5

What do you like best about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to link Instagram for restreaming, currently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Restream:

Get your feet wet with the free version, learn how easy it is to use... then I'm sure you'll decide it's worth upgrading to a paid plan, if you want to be able to stream to many platforms at one time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Restream solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can now livestream content to our social media accounts, allowing more people to see, share, and engage with our content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for beginners in live-streaming"

4/5

What do you like best about Restream?

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes it an easy broadcast but hate Branding"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Restream?

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! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Restream:

I highly recommend Restream to anyone looking for a reliable and affordable way to expand their streaming platforms. The software is easy to set-up using OBS and Streamlabs for both desktop and mobile device, the prices are extremely reasonable, and my streaming quality has been much improved. I had previously been using Restream for my mobile broadcasting, but now I use it for my desktop as well. This has freed up my internet bandwidth so that my mobile is no longer fighting for bandwidth. I also had a problem with high ping but Restream customer support was perfect in handling my issue. This is a great product and is well worth the price. Give it a try! I'm glad I did. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Restream solving and how is that benefiting you?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Low Budget Streaming Platform - Pain to Setup Streams"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Restream?

- 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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

- 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). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Restream:

I would make sure that you list out the features you are looking to get out of a streaming service. Restream wasn't the best fit for us due to the limited customizability of the display of comments during streaming and not quickly adding other co-hosts to the stream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Restream solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were looking to stream live Q&A sessions to our YouTube and LinkedIn communities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

4.5/5

What do you like best about Restream?

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Restream solving and how is that benefiting you?

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.

"Nice Experience"

4/5

What do you like best about Restream?

I really just like the multi stream aspect of it. It is very smooth & intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile solution for multi-streaming live and prerecorded video"

5/5

What do you like best about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Restream?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
