YouTube Live is a great platform that allows you to get in front of people quickly. Subscribers are able to know when you are on. From there they are able to make decisions about your product and decide if it is something that they can find of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It at times can seem like a hassle to start up. Especially for newer users. Once you get the hang of it you are fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Live streaming is so simple and powerful platform to create a show and share message with the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The online video editing is still beta. Hard to edit preciously and combining multiple videos into one. Unable to add text overlay on video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Youtube is a more familiar environment for making and watch streaming content since it has been used for so many years as a video service. It is easier to find video content on youtube than facebook Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Apart from the chocking ads, Youtube Live is a very good service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the fluidity of how easy it is to set up streaming with YouTube Live for any sort of streaming. Compared to twitch.tv I would say that YouTube Live has definitely stepped up their streaming platform to compete against twitch.tv Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I guess that you can’t multi stream or can’t easily set it up to do so. I know that there are other streaming platforms and would like if YouTube Live could put a bit more implementation of other platforms within itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use, intuitive, good UI, reliable and fast, can add a chat/super chat to the streaming, producer dashboard...SEO and searchability, API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You have to be verified by Youtube before going live, Youtube may use your content, may get blocked in some countries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is fantastic for showing to the world how we do stuff live and in real time, and allows us to communicate with people who we are showing it to or have found our stream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If we are trying to show some stuff to no one in particular, there is not a ton of ways to have our content shown on lists for people to find it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Using live is a way to tap into more viewers, not just on YouTube, but on Google search. Live is also a good way to have a Q&A with potential customers, fans or just about anything as it has live chat. Wins out in terms of searchability and SEO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's live, so be prepared to make mistakes and or have a script ready. Also you are giving up your content to Google/Youtube. More controversial topics tend to get removed, so make sure your business goals are aligned with their policies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The fact that it's tied to YouTube and the existing audience. It's a smooth experience and doesn't lag. Also on the user side, I use it for streaming music stations which doesn't work on IG Live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It doesn't have as much audience and reach as IG Live videos. Live engagement is also much better on IG. And we have more followers on IG than we do on YouTube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
How easy it is to broadcast live, from the new YouTube Studio page, without the need for additional software, without transmission delays or consumption on your computer, since the web application engine runs on the server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
More capacity of interaction elements is missing, such as lowerthird, titles, transitions, overlay pack to be executed in real time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
