### "Restream.io"

April 6, 2019

4.0

Overall I have had a pretty good experience with restream, although the platform I stream on doesn't allow me to multistream, Restream made it pretty easy to switch between platforms on the fly whenever I chose to stream to a different platform.

Pros

The ease of use for streaming to multiple platforms or switching platforms.

Cons

I've had a few hiccups as far as reliability goes with Restream, where I had to switch back to another stream key for a specific platform to get my stream up and running again.

### "Restream allows you to stream your video feed and simultaneously air it on different channels. T"

August 11, 2022

5.0

Pros

With Restream, you can stream to multiple channels at once and enjoy a live studio audience. The scheduling of videos is also very convenient- it's like they're prerecorded!

Cons

inerating pricing and the user experience could be improved. A companion app would make it even better! The website itself works well enough on mobile devices but does look pretty cramped because of its layout which can lead you into confusion when trying navigate between different pages or check out orders quickly near your location .

### "Maximize your reach"

July 18, 2019

5.0

I stream occasionally and needed a service to stream to more than just one platform at a time. Restream fit that perfectly and easily allows me to stream to YouTube, twitch and mixer all at the same time including a consolidated chat for the same services.

Pros

It is amazing at allowing a person to stream to multiple platforms simultaneously to maximize the reach of whatever video type you are doing. Primarily aimed at gaming but could be used for anything really

Cons

The way they monetize (has a basic level for free)initially it was just limited to three platforms to stream but cost to do more, now they have some services behind a paywall as well.

### "Honestly, just amazing!"

November 12, 2019

5.0

They’ve just helped me out so much with my streaming experience and allowed me to reach a much broader audience. I thank them so much for all that they’ve done for the streaming community

Pros

Well, the best part was just how intuitive the GUI was. It was incredibly easy to navigate and help myself do what needed to get done

Cons

Well, it could have a dark mode added? Would be a neat feature. Even if it was just a negative color switch.

### "The missing link!"

March 20, 2022

5.0

No complaints. Restream was the missing link I didn't know I needed for screen recording my projects in my DAW. I record myself, my desktop, and my DAW so being able to get audio from all of them is crucial.

Pros

Restream allows me to connect my Digital Audio Workstation to OBS Studio. This allows me to capture sound from my projects when I'm doing screen recording. Other software has not allowed me to do this and I'm forever grateful.

Cons

No complaints so far. The entire experience has been great for how I use the software.

### "restream review"

November 15, 2019

4.0

I like it very much and try to talk about it to my friends, I hope the main fonctionalities will be free forever.

Pros

free and easy multi stream fonctionality

Cons

You have to paid for Facebook lives. The website is only in english (I'm french, I speak and understand english but I'm sure if you translate the website in french spanish or others languages, there will be more people using it. Payment should be Paypal and not International Visa.

### "Wish I could get a little more bang for my buck.. or same bang for less buck.."

April 5, 2019

5.0

For what I need it for , it's great. Restream's chat doesnt seem to work properly. I hope they fix that one day. I can't reply to any of my chats from the restream program it seems. And I can't stop it from showing some channels in my discord.. which makes my own discord chat through the restream app useless.. Also , no facebook chat integration yet is upsetting.

Pros

I like that I can actually stream to several platforms at once and even ones I've not yet discovered..

Cons

I was constantly banned on many platforms and it was nearly impossible to get it set up on each one. There are no guidelines or tutorial videos on the site.. You have to be a real nerd to figure stuff out here.

### "The best service for broadcasting"

November 15, 2019

5.0

Restream has made it that much easier to connect and reach our audiences and viewers all in one place. The fact that you can manage multiple platforms within one is incredibly powerful. A true must have for anyone broadcasting or live-streaming!

Pros

Restream is easy to use, and easy to setup. The support is fantastic and very responsive as is the discord community.

Cons

The only dislike about the software I can think of is not being able to stream to a Facebook page on the free plan. (Basic plan required).

### "Definitely a must for Streamers"

April 6, 2019

5.0

It's been a very great experience.

Pros

It's so easy to use. There's a lot of potential with the app. Love that there's so many platform I can stream simultaneously. Love there's a chat where all the chat is pooled in.

Cons

It's so hard to contact customer support. The livechat option doesnt work and keeps on glitching. I wish there's a filter in the chat that when you cross post it's not so spammy when it shows in the chatroom. I also wish they'll fix the streamcraft linking option because it keeps disconnecting. I also think you should make a mobile app to make it easier to see and manage the stream.

### "Stream Stream Stream (the number one multi streaming software)"

November 15, 2019

4.0

Overall my experience has been great. Being able to edit elements of my stream across multiple platforms from one source is extremely convenient and exactly what I need.

Pros

I love the ability to stream on multiple platforms with one stream output. Super convenient and easy to use.

Cons

Individual streaming service disconnecting stream key. Quite frustrating, having to re-add stream key and set the stream up from the ground up all over again.

### "I can't wait to learn the rest."

July 25, 2021

5.0

We had to find a way to be on more than just one platform at a time. Restream did that.

Pros

When I sat down for the first time in front of the livestream portal (in the browser), I didn't have to hunt for anything. It is an intuitive layout that will be easy for anyone with some computer know how. And a complete novice could be trained, and with practice (trust me, I work with volunteers), look like a pro.

Cons

The only downside is bandwidth needs. Unfortunately, with current technology, video needs the band width. The only way I know around this is lower quality video (which can be accomplished if you know your equipment).

### "Live streaming made easy."

January 21, 2020

5.0

Works perfectly. I can't think of anything they can change.

Pros

The interface is fluid and easy to figure out. I use it for studio session live streams and tutorials. It's also easy to share steams through social media sites. Works like a charm.

Cons

I have no cons to speak of. It has yet to freeze up or let me down even once. I have no need for another streaming platform.

### "Our Streaming Solution"

September 29, 2020

5.0

Overall, our experience with Restream has been very positive and they have solved our problem of streaming our church services live to Facebook and YouTube every Sunday!

Pros

What I like Most about Restream is that they do the "heavy lifting" of knowing and adapting to the ever changing FaceBook Live protocols so that I don't have to!

Cons

What I like least about this software is that I do have to learn what a custom rtmp is and how to add it to my streaming hardware.

### "Fantastic product"

November 12, 2019

5.0

Pros

Allows a streamer to access dozens of content delivery networks, and interact with the communities in each, for free! Allows pro users to opt for transcoding to customize their stream to each network.

Cons

Some of the optional features like game drop down lists (too sparse) and setting tittles for each network can bug out. Meaning when you go live, the wrong information is displayed.

### "Into Live Streaming? You definitely want to check out Restream!"

April 6, 2019

5.0

While live streaming is not my business, Restream easily lets me reach those viewers that are connected to just a single platform like Twitch or YouTube. Restream easily lets you stream to multiple platforms at the same time. I stream to YouTube, Twitch, Mixer and Smashcast with the greatest of ease!

Pros

The Restream web site is easy to use and allows the user to quickly setup their desired services. For most users, the free platforms are sufficient. For users want to reach Facebook, that is a paid add-on.

Cons

I can't say that I don't like anything about Restream. Their web site is easy to use the optional Restream Chat program is great!

### "YouTubers Best Friend"

November 13, 2019

love it. :)

Pros

I love using Restream to broadcast to all of my fans on the different platforms. You allowed me to stream on the 3 main platforms that I use to connect my content with my fans. Thanks you.

Cons

The chat delay on the restream chat. There seems to be a huge gap there.

Reason for choosing Restream

nope. there was no other restreaming services that I knew of at the time. But you were the first, and still the best. Thank You.

### "Restream IO in a nutshell"

November 15, 2019

4.0

Projection, and multi-platform attendance to the channel

Pros

It provides streamers with a way to expand their audience. It allows you to change the settings of all separate streams from one central hub. Its sleek design is easy on the eyes. It's free. No nonsense.

Cons

Seems to overload OBS live when I run YT Mixer and Twitch together. But this can be an unrelated issue based off of an individuals connection. Make the overlays more colorful with options

Alternatives considered

[Google Data Studio](https://www.capterra.com/p/190616/Data-Studio/)

Reason for choosing Restream

Seemed more user friendly and I felt content with the cut and paste style.
