We're very happy with Crowdcast" November 21, 2023 5.0 As a live event producer, covid almost closed our company. Being able to pivot to online events, inexpensively and easily by using Crowdcast, literally saved our company. And now that we are back to in-person events, we can now offer hybrid events and stream all of them via Crowdcast. Win-win. Pros Easy to setup, easy to run live events, everything is recorded, very low pricing compared to other platforms, very reliable, and very good support. Cons Nothing i can think of. It does everything we need, we have no complaints.

Data Manager Venture Capital & Private Equity Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great tool to organise online webinars and presentations" October 7, 2024 5.0 Very good product, helped us organise nearly 100 events. Pros Simple product, made by developers that care about their customers. Does what it needs to do quite well. Cons No in-person event management, no free version.

Chief Executive Officer Internet Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "my crowdcast disaster" February 11, 2019 1.0 We attempted to host a Facebook Advertising Summit event via crowdcast, on january 24th, there were around 14k sign ups with maybe 3k live attendees (we will never know the full number though, since crowdcast was down). It was a major event that our team spent a lot of time and effort to prepare. Immediately we were inundated with over a thousand support requests of users complaining that crowdcast was frozen. Approximately 25% of our sales resulted in returns due to technical issues with crowdcast. Users were very angry for having blocked off their day to access this content, but it wasn't streaming at all. Major issues persisted for the entire day, randomly booting users off the platform, and was overall a spectacular failure. If you have an important company event you are working on, and if you are OK with being completely sabotaged by crowdcast, then i suppose this is the software for you. Pros there was nothing remarkable about this software other than a shocking number of bugs, horrible product instability issues, and an unapologetic CEO who seems to be oblivious to these and other serious issues. Cons crowdcast is extremely buggy. According to correspondence with Crowdcast's CEO, their database "locks up" from time to time when lots of people try to sign in, which makes it so that nobody can watch the live event. This seems like a pretty huge design flaw given that the purpose of this software is to host events with a few thousand people. We tried to stream our live event through this platform and received thousands of user complaints saying they couldn't access the livestream to the event. This software is supposed to do one thing (live casting of a video stream to thousands of people) and it fails miserably at doing that one thing.

Pros I like that we can create events that reach our audience wherever they are. Cons It would be great if the chat feature works on repeat views the way is does live. Alternatives considered [YouTube](https://www.capterra.com/p/237905/YouTube/) Reason for choosing Crowdcast We liked using a platform designed specifically for our needs. Review Source AC Angela C. MD E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best I've used" February 8, 2024 5.0 Over the past 4 years I've developed a great relationship with Crowdcast and always feel that I can ask for a feature and the updated version last year incorporated a lot of great suggestions. Pros Having used Crowdcast for the past 4 years, I've found the site really user friendly. I also use Zoom, Google Hangout, TEAMS, GoTo webinar etc. when my clients are organising sessions, but find that for webinars, Crowdcast is the best option. The customer support is always very good with follow-ups to make sure everything is okay when you need help. Cons The only thing that I have frustration with is that when running multiple sessions, it doesn't put them in reverse order in the lobby, so you have to scroll down many times to get to the one that you want. I have raised this though and so by the time you read this, it may have been resolved :-) Switched from [Zoom Workplace](https://www.capterra.com/p/144037/Zoom-Video-Conferencing/) The quality of the recording is much better and we can now get 10 people on screen.

Paddlesports Coach Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Powerful and smooth webinars" November 27, 2023 5.0 Pros I like that Crowdcast enables me to run everything live in the browser. It has the power to run advanced webinars with video content, chat, Q/A and polls running smoothly. Video and audio quality is good, and customer support is really friendly and helpful. I've been running webinars for years on crowdcast, several times a month with only minor technical hiccups. Crowdcast is mostly a very solid platform that helps and does the job with ease. Cons Sometimes new participants gets confused and struggle to understand the interface. There's a bit of a learning curve to get over. Alternatives considered [Zoom Workplace](https://www.capterra.com/p/144037/Zoom-Video-Conferencing/) Reason for choosing Crowdcast Crowdcast is more streamlined and simple than Zoom, and most importantly, doesn't require installation of client software. Switched from [WebinarJam](https://www.capterra.com/p/165878/Webinar-Jam/) Stability, features and customer support on Crowdcast was better. Review Source KY Kate Y. Executive Director Performing Arts Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A fun new way to engage an audience!" September 30, 2020 4.0 We really enjoyed this new to us platform. The customer support was good when we had issues and the online help was great too. Very informative. Pros We liked having a way to have an interactive event that WASN'T Zoom! Allowing the audience to still engage but not managing it through Zoom was what we were seeking and this did the trick. There are several options for interactive components during events that we used successfully and our audience loved having something different too! Cons We had some issues with the quality with which the videos we shared during our event were streamed, but I think that was on us, not Crowdcast. We have more work to do in learning how best to compress the files. Switched from [Zoom Workplace](https://www.capterra.com/p/144037/Zoom-Video-Conferencing/) We wanted something different but that still allowed for audience interaction. Review Source LH Luke H.

I couldn't work without it - leads galore Pros Easy to use - simple login and super transparent pricing. I love the download features and the analytics suite Cons None - From starting to setting up my first event - it's been great. I would like to do more webinars and will do so in the future! Review Source Kacey W. Marketing Production Lead Venture Capital & Private Equity Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A fresh, new way to do webinars" January 14, 2019 5.0 Crowdcast has been our go-to product for live online events for the past 3 years. We connect with our audiences in many different of type of events online - from webinars, to Ask Me Anything sessions. The authentic way that we can connect with them on Crowdcast really helps us build relationships and help them out. Pros Crowdcast is a fresh looking platform and very interactive. It is an easier and better way to interact with users online, versus traditional "webinar" platforms and systems. It has functions that really help you engage with your audiences, and also helps them interact with each other. The event functions like submitting questions and chat box area really helps bring the events to life and makes them fun. Cons I've found that for guest speakers who may not be "tech-savvy" sometimes have issues logging on or understanding how to use the product. Usually once trained, it's smooth. Only other downfall is needing to make sure what browser you are on since it cannot function in Safari, and we have a lot of Apple users. Review Source Louise T. MD Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Long term User who loves the product for live events " February 21, 2023 5.0 I've used Crowdcast to run events for the last 5 years and it's been integral to the success of me growing my network and helping people learn about the industry I work within. Pros Crowdcast is so easy to use. It allows me to host really professional events without needing in depth technical knowledge. It's a great way to build an audience and community Cons I can't think of any ways in which I'm unhappy with Crowdcast, it does perfectly suit my business needs Review Source tW timothy W. Owner Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A must for Patreon users and anyone need a Pay Wall for events" September 14, 2023 5.0 I have used Crowdcast for about 3-4 years now. Yes, I get technical issues sometimes, but I do get really swift support from the support team and things are resolved fast. If you are in the US or UK time zones, that support is pretty much instant in office hours. I work with a number of other software vendors and Crowdcast support is definitely the best. Pros Ease of setting up an event and cloning an old event for a new one. The Patreon integration works well to ensure I can run Patreon-only events and making it easier for Patreon members to log onto crowdcast events. I like the Pay Wall as well and linked to my Stripe account for fast payment processing and all very secure. Cons Notification features - I would like more options to define notification emails to attendees and an easier way to mail all followers. You can easily email all attendees to an event, but you also have followers over time and I would like to email them and market to them. Review Source RM Roxana M. Head of Marketing Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great tool for webinars!" July 1, 2022 5.0 I was a very happy user for as long as it lasted. Pros We used this tool for such a long time for all our webinars, both demo and themed. Cons V.1. for the interface was a bit outdated, unfortunately. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "We were able to get up and running quickly." January 29, 2019 5.0 It was the first time our organization did a live-streamed training and it was a big success. The customer service was 5 stars! Pros Using Crowdcast was very intuitive. We were able to get up and running quickly. As our needs became more sophisticated we were supported to develop our programs more completely. Cons At first I was frustrated that we needed to go to an outside provider to handle the payments for the broadcast but this turned out to not be a problem because of the excellent customer service we received. We did receive some complaints from people who did not have a strong enough signal to maintain the broadcast throughout. This problem was on their end but it did keep us from reaching some of our audience.

Pros It is easy to use, has great support, and makes it a delight to do webinars and online experiences. Cons It does not do well on all browsers and it seems some people regularly have a tricky time signing up. Review Source Amber D. Money Mindset Coach and Cash Flow Strategist for Health Coaches E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "So beautiful and easy to use" January 29, 2019 5.0 I love their customer support. They go above and beyond. On my first webinar, they stayed on the entire time just to make sure that things went smoothly! Pros I love how fast you can set up new webinars. I also love the q&a feature so that viewer can be most efficient with watching the replay. Cons For recurring webinars, reminder emails are only sent for the first event. It seems silly that there is not a way to change that. Review Source Val G. email & digital strategist Management Consulting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The only webinar/workshop platform you need" January 22, 2019 5.0 Pros Crowdcast is easy to use and makes for simple sharing after. The two most powerful features: 1) Automatic recordings at the same link. 2) Q&A with the ability to jump ahead to your question. Cons Not much! There's little to nothing I would change about the experience as a presenter or a user. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Business Owner E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to use, but broadcast quality is unreliable" April 21, 2021 3.0 I really do wish we could continue to use Crowdcast because it's so user friendly, but the picture quality is too unreliable. Pros I loved that it was so easy to use. The Poll/Q&A features worked well. Cons The broadcast quality was extremely unreliable and inconsistent. Despite our having excellent bandwidth and upload speed, the picture quality was sometimes so bad, we had to restart part way through. We finally finished our webinar series via Zoom, which proved to be much more stable. We followed all the suggestions given by Crowdcast tech support but nothing helped. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Associate Director of Psychology Graduate Academic Operations Higher Education Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Psyched Up About Crowdcast" January 29, 2019 5.0 Pros I loved that the software is easy to navigate and understand! Cons I wish the software had closed caption capabilities. Closed captioning would allow for users to reach a broader audience. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Consultant Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Crowdcast has all the features!" January 29, 2019 5.0 Pros Crowdcast has every feature you're looking for when presenting webinars. I really enjoy the easy call-to-action button, the Q&A feature (that can be timestamped) and the fact that one URL serves every purpose: registration, webinar, and replay. Cons I've had a few issues where people couldn't get registered due to emails going into spam. I've also had a few problems with video replays that haven't worked, but those issues have been fixed quickly. Review Source EF Elinor F. Founder Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A reliable, user-friendly broadcast platform" January 14, 2019 5.0 I've been using Crowdcast for many years now and they are super reliable and easy to use! Pros I love the simple, well-designed interface that helps me look like a pro! And I appreciate that regardless of my subscription level, I can download the contact information of all who RSVP to my webinars. The customer service is top-notch and reliable. Cons I think you get the best value from your money if you do webinars regularly. It can feel pricey if you use only a few times a year, even with a basic subscription. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder Publishing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Crowdcast Review by Bob Fine" January 29, 2019 5.0 Great experience with the founder and the staff. Very responsive. Pros \- very cost competitive - relatively easy to you use - great social media sharing capabilities Cons \- i don't really have any complaints about the software. It's been a great platform for us. Review Source AW Anastasia W. Teacher E-Learning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Amazing Quality and Easy to Use Platform" April 14, 2019 5.0 My overall experience has been great. They reposed to questions quickly and are very supportive. Pros It is easy to use, attractive to look at in layout, Give great quality recordings for those whom could not make live video. Cons There is nothing I least like about Crowdcast at this time. Review Source TD Tina D. Channel, Healer, Counselor Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Still learning, but growing slowly" January 29, 2019 5.0 Crowdcast does make things super easy for me, and minimizes a lot of backend work that I love. Pros I love that I can hit the button to record and connect with my audience, and since they're all registered, when it's complete, they can go back and watch the replay within minutes, and I don't have to do anything! I love the automation too when they register, and all is sent to the participants, minimizing my back end work. I love the features as well with the call to action, the polls, and questions. Cons I can't use my laptop, so I'm limited to using my Imac in only one room. Even though googlechrome and firefox are supposed to be good browsers, my computer ALWAYS overheats. I have great high speed internet, I had my lap top cleared and checked, I don't run anything else in the background and it doesn't matter, it still overheats which is frustrating. Some students don't like how it's different for different devices either. Review Source MP Marie P. Co-founder, Digital Strategist Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The easiest webinar platform!" January 14, 2019 4.0 Crowdcast allows me to have casual office hours, formal webinars, and recorded presentations. Super easy, I love it! Pros It's super easy to use, no need to download any software. Very intuitive; I've recommended for many clients who are not very tech savvy and they always love it! The community and support are awesome, and they're always working to improve the platform. I love that you can do multi-series events within the same link. Love that they also integrate with Zapier, Drip, and other tech that I use! Cons Max 4 people on screen at a time. Cost is steep for the amount that I use it. Review Source RV Rachel V. Founder Venture Capital & Private Equity Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Platform" June 6, 2019 5.0 Pros The ease of being able to deliver my content, not having to worry about separate sign-ups and ticketing my events. Also, love having automatic reminders and being able to list multiple events under a series. Cons Would like the ability to have more people up on screen at once.
