We've used Wowza on and off for many years - the quality of the encoders and the recently updated FlowPlayer are pretty hard to beat, particularly at the price point (you can go down a fantastic rabbithole of customising FlowPlayer to match your site with the FlowPlayer add-ons)

Embedding is as simple as a line of code that is generated by the site when you create your stream (and all the encoding options get auto generated but are stil available to adjust as you see fit - nothing seems to be hidden away here!)

A great recent addition has been improving the speed of download on the saved stream footage - previously an 8-hour day would take almost an hour from request to actually starting a download. Now it's much quicker and I can't say how much more usable this has made Wowza (thank you, you've literally cut hours off our tunr-around times!)

Although the customer service times seem quite slow for PAYG customers, I've never had to wait that long to get help (and in 'critical' time sensitive matters they do seem to reply quickly) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over the past few years, every little annoyance seems to have been ironed out of the platform meaning that my dislike is a little bit of my impatience!

For the PAYG, it'd be nice if they had a tally of current charges outstanding on your account.

The prices for PAYG clearly displayed, they tell you how much data you've used each day but you need to work out the price yourself (I know, basic multiplication, but it'd be nice if they could add this into their fantastic platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of using Wowza Streaming server is that is very flexible. It supports all formats and can transcode, resend a record livestreams. We have used it for many use cases. Both 24-7 streaming from fixed cameras to large OB productions from major sport events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes some time to setup and we miss a built-in transcoding for VOD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We love how simple it is to set up and monitor. It integrates with our streaming software VMix -using just a short code. And for our audience members, the quality of the streams, regardless of device, has been excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is they did increase the basic monthly fee to use the service a la carte. Not cost prohibitive, but as small K12 school, for what we stream to our parents/etc, it it was an unwanted fee increase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
