"Perfect for TV Stations"

5/5

What do you like best about SnapStream?

We had a specific need for a system that could give us closed caption support, and Snapstrem was able to deliver on a predictable budget with predictable results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SnapStream?

We did have to offer some training to users on the basics of operation, some extra documentation or the ability to disable/slim down the UI would be nice for novice users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Snapstream"

3/5

What do you like best about SnapStream?

Transcriptions make the system very valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SnapStream?

There are a few flaws. You can't enable transcriptions when setting up a recording from the guide. You aren't warned if you try to set up a recording beyond the limit in your system -- leading you incorrectly to believe all recordings would take place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Changed our workflow forever"

5/5

What do you like best about SnapStream?

Number one, we’re saving ourselves a couple of hours of work AFTER the show airs. By the time the show ends, we’ve basically already created and pushed out all the content we needed from that episode.

And number two, because of the caliber of guests on the show, The MMA Hour can be a major source of news, information, interesting stories and of course, we want to get all of that out on our social platforms before anyone else Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SnapStream?

Sometimes when you start clipping, the clip doesn't appear in the same browser window. I have to open a new window to see that clip and download it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before SnapStream, our social team would be watching, probably making notes and marking timestamps of social-worthy clips and quotes to pull from a live podcast. When the show ends, we would wait for the footage, download it, and then start clipping in premiere, making relevant graphics and THEN finally start pushing content out to social. So even after a 4 hour show, where we couldn’t do much but listen there was still several hours of work left to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
