What do you like best about WorkCast?

WorkCast has a fantastic platform for hosting Webinars - it supports many formats for live / on-demand and more. The API access allows developments on top of the core platform and, when used with the embedded player, allows superb integration with existing sites. Recently we required customer support to help us troubleshoot a tricky issue, they went above & beyond to help us resolve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WorkCast?

The email automation platform for managing user journies isn't as streamlined or controllable as I would like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WorkCast:

Superb platform, don't be afraid to engage with the on-boarding team - they will help you find the right solutions. For us this was custom implementation of the platform via their embed feature and custom email automation templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We wanted to in-house our Webinar solution from a 3rd party whilst hosting them on our main website. This has been possible thanks to WorkCast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Natalie Parsons of WorkCast

Hi Laurle

What do you like best about WorkCast?

Workcast provides top-of-the-line customer service, which makes our live programming a pleasure to produce. They are knowledgeable and proactive.

The technical foundation is solid, and they allow for both self-service options and full service with all the bells and whistles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WorkCast?

I have not had any negative experiences working with Workcast. They never disappoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Workcast provides an excellent user experience both for me as a Producer and for our audience. They have the capabilities to do a simple livestream, or a complicated production with options that include polling, chat, and mixing live and pre-taped content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WorkCast?

All the staff I have spoken with so far, including customer success, account manager and technical support, have been really easy to reach and helpful. No issues from a viewer's point of view, and it looks more professional than the interface of our previous platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WorkCast?

We've been having some technical issues, including speakers not being able to join the platform or not being able to communicate. The backend could be more user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We no longer receive complaints from attendees not being able to join the platform, so it's saving me time answering those. The conversion rate has been similar to what we had before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WorkCast?

Email response from the WorkCast team is quick. They provide clear, detailed information in their emails and the webinar onboarding experience was seamless. The platform training was fantastic. The system performed flawlessly on webinar day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WorkCast?

Perhaps allow the webinar host the ability to manage the onboarding process in a user dashboard. It would be easier to allow the webinar administrator the ability to upload creative assets, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Providing a one-stop and easy webinar platform that performs well. I was looking for a stable system that was able to handle a large number of attendees, along with robust reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The experience from the workers knowing the best way to proceed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WorkCast?

How slowly progress was made. Partly our fault, at the same time I would've liked workcast to be more prompt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Having a 'home base' that every attendee can go to for the virtual event. It's better than having basic meeting invites on their calendar Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about WorkCast?

If I have a query a member of the events team comes back to me quickly. The team is always super helpful, polite and very nice to deal with. The technical rehearsal is so useful for the speakers (and me) and no question is ever viewed as silly.

WorkCast have a very knowledgeable and professional team. I would like to give a shout -out to the following main points of contact that I have worked with for this Webinar -

Chloe Dixon

Kirsty Carr

Jess Riches

Kate Mordecai

and of course to our account manager who herself is very patient - Michelle Houghton

And to all the other points of contact - thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WorkCast?

I wouldn't say dislike, but I would like the on-demand to show the poll questions even though the audience cannot vote, to show the results published. I also wonder if it is possible to get the on-demand view to fill the whole of the screen. We had four speakers and there is alot of space not utilised on the on-demand view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering WorkCast:

WorkCast is a competent and professional company that provides great support and a solid webinar product. Great value and fantastic customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We had a problem with the host of the webinar not being able to unmute his microphone. This resulted in a long section of video that was silent and was not representative of the professional webinar we had planned, WorkCast deleted this section of video on the on-demand video and liaised with us to ensure we were happy with the on-demand video before making it public on the auditorium. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
