Great Streaming, Branding and Customizability - HORRIBLE LOGIN EXPERIENCE

Kommentare: I love StreamYard despite the login being a mess. We switched to StreamYard from Restream because we found that StreamYard had better branding options for our live streams, and we also wanted the option to add multiple people to our live streams easily. The services were the same price.

Vorteile:

Things I like: - The flexibility you have with branding is impressive. You can select the styling for the live comments that come up during the stream. You can choose coloring options via HEX for most of the on-screen elements. And you can add your own logo and full-screen overlays to streams - The multi-person streaming feature is seamless. We have not used it yet, but plan to have live guests on our live streams in the future. - The private chat for guests of the live stream is wonderful

Nachteile:

Things I dislike: - It would be nice to have an easier way to switch overlays during the live stream. The overlay selection is hidden in the branding menu, so when you are mid-stream and looking at comments, you have to click away from the comments tab and into the branding tab to change the full-screen overlay. - The single code login is excellent for solo operators, but for teams, it's HORRIBLE. I can't update our company Streamyard account settings unless I have the account owner login to their email and send their login code. What kind of app doesn't have an email/password login? And they don't have great team settings either!

Get the most out of your videos with Streamyard

Kommentare: Utilizing Streamyard for our sports media world was a game-changer to start off. We made our announcement as a company w/ Streamyard and haven't looked back.

Vorteile:

The ease of use – and the ability to get started right away – is imperative. The ability to go live in the blink of an eye is also as important as it gets. The best part about Streamyard is the fact that you can quite literally create anything you want w/ customizable branding and it's incredibly easy to deploy (even for those who aren't tech-savvy) and go live immediately.

Nachteile:

Streamyard's long-form video production takes a while to export, but there really isn't anything to do about that -- and it isn't a deal-breaker at all in the long run.

Livestreaming my Knowledge

Vorteile:

Super easy to invite guests! Very easy to use by all my guests.The feeling of a super awesome producer, allowing me to use different setups.

Nachteile:

Not seeing the full stats of Linkedin but it is a minor issue.

streamyard review

Vorteile:

I like the fact that I can do conference call and also stream live for free.

Nachteile:

the paid plan can be a little on the pricey side.

Make yourself look awesome and get your message across simply

Kommentare: Makes running live events and roundtables, plus recording clips for future broadcast really easy

Vorteile:

I like everything StreamYard does, whether livestreaming or recording for future broadcast, the ability to focus on a speaker, share screens, publish and respond to comments from different channels, works well for limited bandwidth, and no need for guests to download software

Nachteile:

Nothing - great integrations into all social channels (that I use at least)

Stream LIVE on Multiple Platforms

Kommentare: We like what Streamyard offers and their creativity in trying new features for the customers.

Vorteile:

We really like the option of streaming LIVE on YouTube and Facebook at the same time. We are able to reach more of our viewers and followers. We also like to banner options to add text at the bottom of our broadcast. It's great to see LIVE comments when we are broadcasting.

Nachteile:

We suggest giving us the option to view the comments when we are sharing our screen.

The Easiest Way to Live Stream and Record

Kommentare: Overall, the versatility and reach of this software and its ever-increasing improvements make it a keeper for me.

Vorteile:

It's a professional platform that connects social media, with individual and business plans. Use your own logos and backgrounds.

Nachteile:

None noted. I like the value and features offered for each plan.

A 5 star for Stream yard

Kommentare: Before knowing streamyard My live streams were pretty limited. Now i can have so many guests on my show, have scrolling or fixed banners and backgrounds , Also you can Keep you 50 hours of vdeo. I also enjoy the fact that for my plan that i have chosen i can broadcast to 3 other channels. Streamyard is the thing to use for your broadcasts.

Vorteile:

Not expensive for what is offered depending on the plan you choose,New features all the time.very good customer service.

Nachteile:

cannot thing of any right now, i am sure there are but i cannot think of them.

A solid solution for live streaming

Vorteile:

I have used Streamyard as both the host and organizer of live streams, as well as the guest of one-on-one interviews and roundtable conversations, and I have to say that the platform's stability is something that stands out. There's no doubt that your internet connection plays a key role in this but Streamyard does come across as a reliable platform for all kinds of live streams on different social media platforms (I'm excited to start using it for LinkedIn Live too!). Of everything that Streamyard brings to the table, there are a couple of features I'm a big fan of. Firstly, there's the clean dashboard, which makes for a smooth and straightforward user experience. Whether you're the one in charge of everything or you're getting invited to participate in a conversation, Streamyard basically takes you by the hand every step of the way. Then, there are its engagement features. You can put audience members in the spotlight by highlighting some of their questions or comments – you can also use this feature to put emphasis on something you'd like people to take action on.

Nachteile:

There are a couple of things I'm not crazy about, but this has more to do with what's included (or not included) in certain plans. At the moment of me writing this review, you won't be able to do Full HD streams nor multistream (so have your live stream be distributed and streamed across different social media platforms at the same time) unless you're ready to spend a few hundred dollars per month.

StreamYard simply delivers. Great product for most live streaming use-cases.

Kommentare: StreamYard is extremely intuitive and gets your live stream off the ground quickly. I have a background in live-event video and have used 16 channel multi M/E switchers, this does similar and often times more at literal pennies on the dollar. This product is a really great mix of online meeting software and a virtual ATEM.

Vorteile:

StreamYard is extremely intuitive for switching video and M/E. I am super impressed that this is all browser-based. The ability to integrate 10 users and seen charing into a single live stream is incredible. StreamYard also has super smooth switching and transitions for lower thirds, general M/E, and PiP. This integrates perfectly with FB and YouTube - even setting up live events and premiers. Setting up custom RTMP feeds is yet another great feature.

Nachteile:

Within the PiP features, I am unable to determine which person is to be maximized if multiple people are on screen - it seems to work left to right in your queue but that is determined solely based on the order people login. There should be multiple views for the back-end, there should be a switcher view and a "zoom call" multi-person view for everyone else. Everyone being able to see the back-end switching is often distracting. There should also be more broad API integration with other applications, e.g. Twitch. I know this can be achieved in the custom RTMP feeds but that is an unnecessary hassle in a fast-paced environment. The company should create templates for backgrounds based on the number of participants as the size and positions shift depending on how many participants are on the stream. The media player maximums (length and file size) should also be expanded - currently, the video playback feature has a very small size (100mb I believe) and is limited to 1 minute

The absolute easiest way to stream virtual events

Kommentare: Overall, Streamyard is the best live-streaming option currently available that I have ever worked with. With options to use professional cameras, or just making webcams look much higher quality with smooth transitions, lower thirds, overlays, and easily added video make it a bar above the rest. It's also affordable, easy to learn, and works for most avenues where you can stream. A few technical hiccups here and there in design are not enough to deter me from recommending this to everyone.

Vorteile:

Streamyard is a wonderful option for live-streaming what would otherwise be a simple Zoom event or Skype call. The professional transitions between layouts, ease of customizing your "brand" content and adding features has never been so user friendly in my opinion. Adding and removing users from the stream, changing views, and hosting content is so easy, my company is using it multiple times a month. At a very affordable price, in a COVID world, this is a fantastic option for making better use of live-streaming to multiple avenues like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch. It even has an option to use RTMP servers for lesser know sites, such as MixCloud, that works to wonderful effect! I cannot recommend this enough to someone who wants to begin to stream yet is fearful of programs like OBS.

Nachteile:

By far, the most infuriating aspect of Streamyard is how it's limited to ten users per stream, including whoever is moderating/switching behind the scenes. This will always need to be clearly communicated to your team and can be a problem when trying to plan certain events. If they could figure out a way to expand this somehow, it would skyrocket the use for it in large-scale events. Additionally, some of Streamyard's transitions from video or overlays could use some smoothing out, as they are sudden or abrupt. I also would like to see physical switcher implementation as well as more options for transitions and branding.

Streamyard is the way to go!

Vorteile:

Ease of use even for those who aren’t technology savvy. Inexpensive too. Can stream to several platforms.

Nachteile:

I honestly don’t have anything negative to say about this.

StreamYard makes it easy to feel like I have my own TV show!

Kommentare: This is such a fantastic tool! By having the paid plan, I can customize with my logo, background, and other elements. I can even set up multiple brand templates, depending on which event I'm broadcasting. I also love being able to simulcast to both Facebook and YouTube (plus the plan I'm on allows for a third one, and the upgraded plan has even more). They also have a great online community. I mean how many software companies host a weekly Town Hall for their users?

Vorteile:

The first time I used StreamYard, I felt it was pretty intuitive to learn, and really improved my broadcasts over going live natively. But what really makes it a winner is how easy it is for my guests to join a broadcast. Just a couple of clicks, and they're in the green room, ready to go on camera. We can then have a quick backstage chat before we go live.

Nachteile:

There were a few bumps in the beginning, like a couple of times when I ended up sounding like a robot. But it was likely due to issues with my Internet access. Unfortunately, I was too much of a rookie to know how to fix it while on the air (if I even could have). However I haven't run into those issues for a long time.

Look like a pro when you record and stream

Kommentare: Overall, StreamYard makes it easy for me to record and share videos as well as go live in multiple groups at a time. I also love how I can invite others to record with me, sharing more stories all at once.

Vorteile:

I love how streamyard allows me to go live in my groups, multiple at a time, and shows me all the chats happening while I'm live. They program also gives me a professional look when recording videos with overlays and lables. StreamYard gives my videos a look of being "recorded in studio" when I'm just sitting at my desk.

Nachteile:

If I were to make one improvement it would be that my clients wouldn't have to give permission to StreamYard inorder for me to see their names while commenting/live chatting during a stream.

StreamYard is so easy, even my husband can do it!

Kommentare: The software solved the problem of needing people to jump on and off a stream easily. It's so easy that nobody seems to have issues using it. I highly recommend Streamyard.

Vorteile:

We use StreamYard to conduct a weekly live stream to my husband's YouTube subscribers. We have people jumping on and off during the stream to show their drag racing car setups, people asking questions in the chat, and special guests. It's easy for him to share his screen and switch back and forth between people who are talking. It's also easy for the members to use the Streamyard link to jump on when they want to share something. We love this product! I have also used it in my business to simulstream to both YouTube and Facebook at the same time. Works like a charm!

Nachteile:

There really aren't any cons to this product.

Much easier than I expected! Versatile and powerful tool

Kommentare: I resisted using Sgreamyard, thinking it would be very difficult to learn. Boy was I wrong! I started using it as part of a Livestream Challenge, and love it. The free version has lots of hefty features, so for the average user that may be sufficient. I am going with the first tier paid version so I can switch out backgrounds for my green screen, add my own logo, and livestream to several places at once (i.e., Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube). I am really impressed with the ease and quality of this tool!

Vorteile:

The learning curve is fairly easy, especially since they provide excellent tutorials; You can work in the "studio" ahead of time to get everything set up; Exceptional quality with the video and sound; I love how easy it is to add banners with urls, calls to action, and other info Nice to do a FB Live and be able to bring people on the screen with you -- and show chat comments to everyone. You can download the videos and use them in multiple ways.

Nachteile:

So far I have not found a way to mirror yourself -- so it feels backward when I am recording! (Do not try to smooth your hair!! Hahaha!)

There's Nothing Else Like It

Vorteile:

I still can't believe StreamYard does all it does at this price point. We run frequent livestreams and online conferences, and being able to link guests directly to an in-browser studio with built in, easy to use production tools has made our whole lives better. It looks fantastic, our guests almost never have a problem figuring it out, and it's been extremely reliable.

Nachteile:

StreamYard's single biggest missing feature is captioning or a way to pull captions into the system easily. It's really the only thing that we wish was built in.

Great and Easy Live Streaming Platform

Kommentare: The learning curve for StreamYard is very short. StreamYard is so easy to use that it's almost plug and play. It's a tremendous option to consider if you're new to streaming.

Vorteile:

StreamYard is very easy to use. The StreamYard studio may be the most intuitive live broadcasting studio I've used. It's easy to switch screens, share screens, and display comments.

Nachteile:

The StreamYard account dashboard is a bit too barebones for me. It would be nice to have a section within StreamYard's live studio or dashboard that shows what features they've recently added.

It gets the job done, not much more

Kommentare: Since Google removed the Hangouts on Air functionality, it became somewhat hard to stream a videocall of several people to Youtube and that's when Streamyard came to the rescue making it achievable by just anyone with basic tech abilities.

Vorteile:

It's really simple to integrate with your social networks accounts and it makes streaming something effortless. It even has a pretty functional free plan, enough for most needs, actually.

Nachteile:

Awful design, interfaces, logo and overall look of their app/service. Also, sometimes we have audio problems which we attribute to Streamyard, since that doesn't happen when having videocalls using another service, it's just that we can't stream from those services.

Best, easiest and works GREAT for live streaming!

Kommentare: Overall i would highly recommend StreamYard. Really excited to see how the product will keep growing in the future. Planning to stay long term with StreamYard.

Vorteile:

Setting up and streaming live to multiple destinations made super easy and time efficient. Most importantly you can brand your streams professionally really easy. The ease of customizing brand content literally has never been so user friendly in my viewpoint. Custom RTMP outputs is a huge plus for me. Display of comments is a great way to interact.

Nachteile:

I wish there were keyboard shortcuts for control functions. I wish the number of users per streams would be higher it could be used to stream mid to large events. More integrations would definitely help as well.

Easy streaming especially with remote attendees

Kommentare: Because of Streamyard, we've been able to stream via our social media channels with no issues and featuring co-hosts that are remotely located. This is especially important during this season.

Vorteile:

Really great tool to stream via Youtube or Facebook with remote co-hosts. Instead of having to set-up Zoom or other software, the remote co-host can just go straight to the link and join in an instant. No fussy signups and set-ups needed. Quick and easy. And the fact that it's all happening via cloud and utilizing different people's Internet connectivity makes it more reliable than our usual way of streaming.

Nachteile:

None, really. Even the free version has almost all the features that you need to stream well. Logo placement is understandable.
