I like that you get to see the analytics of each episode in different dashboards, even a worldwide map! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes episodes take like 30 mins to upload, I've used other podcast players that take from 5 to 10 mins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SimpleCast is a simple, straightforward option to get your Podcast published and available to your audience. They offer RSS feeds, solid analytics, and they allow you to easily ensure that your audience never misses an episode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if there were more options for customizing your site with Themes. There currently is a default theme with a few options for changing colors and light versus dark. That being said, being able to modify the look of your page in a greater way could help you to differentiate your Podcast even more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simple platform, easy to get up and running, easy to publish podcasts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Podcast site goes down all the time without any notice or explanation. They can't seem to keep their custom domain feature working. I went with Simplecast primarily for the custom domain and custom site function - and it does not work reliably. Deal breaker - I'm now looking for a replacement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their embeddable players are some of the nicest (and smoothest) I've seen and used. You also get detailed stat analysis for anyone who uses it. I also use their Recast app that helps you to create short video clips to promote your podcast on social media. Recast is a public social sharing feature that you or anyone else create short clips of your episodes to share. It’s intuitive and easy to use and I love that this is built-in – no need for third-party apps to create video soundbites.

When you’re just getting started, it’s a big plus to have a nicely designed website that doesn’t require a lot of tweaking. They have light and dark themes, or you can customize the color to match your branding, as well as choose different layout options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To get advanced stats you have to upgrade your plan. Some aspects of the dashboard can be confusing at first, A built-in transcription service would be welcomed. Other hosting services let you host as many different podcasts as you want for one price, while you’ll have to pay for each show on Simplecast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software hand holds you through most of the steps for publishing an episode. The initial set up for a new podcast may take a little more investment in focus and time, but that is always true when you do something new Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The different graphic sizes used on the recast and the cover art. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use SimpleCast to upload our radio show and it's very simply to use! We use it every day since we produce content every day; very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be buggy at times, but overall, it is very reliable. I wish there were a few more features that the application had, but it honestly meets all of the things that we need it to do for our operation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simplecast has been a great tool for us to host, distribute, and promote our weekly Football podcast. We are all big fans of it and will continue to be customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that as a part of the recast tool it would include the option for subtitle in the video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the User Interface, it's very practical and easy to use. It supports OGG which guarantees quality during the audio broadcasting. I know other formts are supported as well, including MP3 and MP3pro, which is very good for all kind of professionals (or not) in this area. It supports and communicats very well with the server I'm currently using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't seen any deslike in the tool. One of the big problems is the delay in broadcasting audio over the internet. But I think this is related to the server itself, not the program that we are using. If there is something realted to this that could be improved from the software's standpoint, that would be much appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
