### "My Feedback"

May 27, 2026

3.0

Pretty good - I think the prices are over priced and a little high for what they offer but the app overall is decent.

Pros

The variety of options to accomplish on this site with my videos. I do wish it had more to offer but over all it’s not bad at all.

Cons

The overall set up of the website is a little wonky. I wish it was a little easier to navigate in the “projects” folder.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Riverside

It’s the only app that allowed the type of web cam that I had purchased.

### "Getting better all the time"

April 24, 2026

5.0

Excellent. I love that more features keep getting added. Example: now you can record with two people in the same room. Also the magic clips are helpful.

Pros

intuitive. It's easy to navigate and when I get stuck, you can reach out for help. I'm really loving the magic clips.

Cons

Sometimes help takes 24 hours to respond -- Previously, I was frustrated when we could not record with two people in the same room.

### "Good Value For Money"

April 15, 2026

5.0

I've recorded about a dozen podcasts with it so far and been very pleased with the results. It's so much cheaper and easier than sending the guests a phone to use and send back or dealing with guests who are not tech savvy.

Pros

The ability to record guests in HD quality using a remote software. This is the #1 feature for me and I love it.

Cons

Some of the editing features are not intuitive to me because I am DaVinci Resolve certified, so I prefer to export and edit manually. That said, the quality has been really excellent so far.

### "The Best Recording Service on the Internet"

March 19, 2026

5.0

All good. excellent quality and great interface. I know there are so many more aspects of the service that I can build into, but even at my subscription level, the product gives me the best quality result that you can get on the market - the fact that the frame rate is consistent is EVERYTHING!

Pros

so easy to use. excellent customer support and absolutely the best product on the internet for what I need.

Cons

Can't do full screen when I have more than one 'Guest' on the call, which limits my team because we need to see what's in and out of frame. (NOTE: I bet this is just a user error on my side)

### "Great for more than just podcasting!"

May 15, 2026

5.0

Love using for editing and recording because it speeds up the process of releasing episodes and editing videos

Pros

I love being able to record with guests and also edit in the same platform. The AI functionalities and tools make it so much faster to get my episodes out into the world. I also use it to edit other videos for my brand and I love that it's one tool I can use in many different ways.

Cons

It can be heavy and slow loading at times, especially with longer videos or when using the AI tools. I also don't like how the script editing functions at times, when I want to restore certain parts of the "made for you" edits, it feels clitchy and slow

### "X's Riverside Review"

February 21, 2026

5.0

I like ! It needs some small bug fixes, but the recording studio and AI editing features are amazing.

Pros

I like the ability to have clips created for me, designed for social media. The magic edits help the editing process dramatically.

Cons

Editing long-form content is clunky and often has numerous bugs. Things like implementing consistent backgrounds and trying to set markers on a timeline are frustrating.

March 10, 2026

Thanks for sharing your experience, Xaiver! It’s great to know that our AI features are making a dramatic difference in your editing process. We’ve noted your comments about the timeline and background consistency, as we're always looking to iron out those bugs. We appreciate your support and are glad you're enjoying the recording studio!

### "I LOVE RIVERSIDE"

March 30, 2026

5.0

Amazing. I’ve referred it to others, not just for podcasting, but for the online video connections or chats.

Pros

Very user friendly. Very cost effective. Professional output. The AI features are amazing to use to produce quality product.

Cons

I have a problem using all the functions on my iPhone. I only get the full functions when I use my laptop.

Steven, so glad the AI features and the overall value have been hitting the mark! The iPhone limitation is a real one we're actively working on — full functionality across all devices is absolutely where we're headed. – The Riverside Team

### "iSmple to get up and running"

May 20, 2026

4.0

Easy enough for a non-techy, I am not putting much demand on the production of videos, but it is working well for the bare minimum.

Pros

Very easy to record video right away. I like being able to have the transcipt scroll above the frame.

Cons

editing the videos, yesterday I ended up with my 4 minute video turning into a loop, that was 50 minutes!

### "Riverside is a One-Stop Shop for Your Recording Needs"

May 29, 2026

5.0

Loving it! Great value for the money spent. I've used other recording platforms and this is by far my favorite.

Pros

High quality video and the transcripts are very useful. It's so convenient that the recordings are broken down into smaller videos I can immediately use on social media.

Cons

I don't have any feedback to give here. Again, there's so many options to work with and the platform is easy to navigate and use.

May 8, 2026

Will keep using it always. It’s great for interviewing guests on our show. We love the product and will continue to use it.

Pros

Love that it records the guests in 4K. Love that they make the videos and adapt the AI for you. Would recommend.

Cons

I don’t like that sometimes you can’t hear the person in real time and that you have to wait to talk for them to be done, otherwise you can’t hear them.

### "Great platform"

May 3, 2026

5.0

Overall, it’s a very great platform and I’m happy with it. I provided some feedback on the calendar planner that they implemented so that was great!

Pros

I like that I can schedule, record, edit, and upload to multiple streaming sites all in one platform!

Cons

Sometimes customer service isn’t as quick as I would like it to be. I don’t love when the live chat turns into an email thread because it’s harder to keep track of.

Great, on month 6 and it is easy to use. When editing, it is seamlessly done. Your audience will not hear the cuts.

Pros

Easy to use. Love using it for my pocast. It is nice to have all projects on one platform. There are a ton of options, great value for your money.

Cons

Nothing. It is great. I enjoy using the platform. I am not super savy but I am able to figure ut out pretty easily.

### "Riverside is exceptional, all in one solution for podcasters!"

February 27, 2026

5.0

Pros

The all in one platform for recording, editing, hosting and AI integration. I can invite guests directly to the recording studio.

Cons

So far, nothing! The AI isn't always spot on, but I appreciate it taking me further. I still listen to the entire episode to edit out "ums" and so on.

Hi Leslie, thank you so much for the 10/10 recommendation! We’re thrilled that Riverside has become your all-in-one solution for recording, editing, and hosting. We hear you on the 'ums' and filler words-while our AI helps get the ball rolling, we’re constantly working to make those automated edits even more precise so you can spend less time listening back and more time creating. Thanks for being with us!

I am brand new at podcasting. I've thought about it in the past but was scared at the thought of being able to use the software to edit my shows. makes it SO EASY and I am absolutely so glad that I have opted to use this platform. Thank you!!

Very simple and high quality with quick responses from customer support when I have questions. The AI features are also very helpful.

Pros

It's making podcast creation very user friendly as I build my first podcast. Customer support has been very responsive and it's been a great value thus far.

Cons

No cons as of yet. I've only tested the recording and not posted yet, but excited to see how user-friendly the posting process is moving forward.

It edits everything for me which is lifechanging for me. I stopped podcasting because of the time it takes to edit so allows me to still do this because it saves so much time with video creation and editing episodes!

I’ve been overall pretty happy using the app and will continue to use as long as things don’t get to bogged down by useless ai features

Pros

Ease of bringing guests in, recording remotely for each person in both video and audio. Being able to access past content clearly

Emphasis on using AI tools. It can be a little confusing trying to find settings and what each section mean.

February 23, 2026

Overall Riversides platform has improved my efficiency with audio and video editing by 100%. I wish I found it sooner!

Pros

I love the ease of use and all the AI editing tools. It makes content available to post faster and takes long format videos, cutting them up into various short clips with titles and varying topics

Cons

Nothing to dislike but it could have more audio editing tools similar to audacity and other podcast editing softwares

Pros

Ease of use, the ability to easily capture and edit video in 4k video is also a winning play. Connecting to podcast services is a plus.

### "Ony consider Riverside.fm if you're a large customer"

March 27, 2025

3.0

For basic things like recording remove interviews it was good. But if you want to run a podcast be prepared for a huge purchase which most can't afford.

Pros

Audio and Video recording quality are good.

Cons

Lower tiers are only for tiny creators, business tier is only for large companies. You can't start small and grow with them.

### "No More Internet Connectivity Issues on Podcasts!"

September 4, 2023

5.0

Overall, I really like for remote podcast recording. Both audio and video quality is great, and though I haven't tried them, their new AI features look very promising!

Pros

Having used both Zoom and to record remote podcasts, it is clear that Riverside's system is far superior for this kind of work. I've rarely had any issues having clients or guests use Riverside for their podcast recordings. the video quality is always great, the audio quality is always great, and being in control of things as the "producer" allows me to ensure the call goes smoothly for everyone.

Cons

I've noticed that the paywall seems to be shifting as of late - a few less features available for the price that I'm paying. And once or twice I've had recordings disappear. Sometimes support is able to dig them up, sometimes they arent. But that hasn't happened in a while!

Reason for choosing Riverside

A friend recommended it, and I liked the features so I said "let's do it"

Switched from

For the business account it was $550 a month and multiple times had to switch to using zoom.

Pros

It is easy to use and you can have multiple studios to organize your recordings

Cons

Video quality during calls is bad. The audio and video often don’t line up. The love function is awful quality and the customer support is slow and over burdened
