We were looking for a tool to support a LinkedIn Live webinar and tested several options, but they were always missing key features. StreamYard met all our needs. It allowed us to schedule the event, display LinkedIn comments on screen in real time, record everything, and easily bring in external guests. After the webinar, it also generated short clips that we could reuse for social media. Our team is relatively young and comfortable with technology, but the tool is still very easy to use and requires almost no learning curve.

Pros

Streamyard creates after a webinar already shorts that can be used for social media, subtitles included. They look great and it saved us as some time!

Cons

In general we were very happy with the tool, however if I need to mention something that can be improved it's perhaps the options of adding your brand logo to on screens. It is possible but we struggles a tiny bit with the size as we had 4 different companies joining.

After trying several podcasting and live streaming platforms over the years, Streamyard stood out early for all the right reasons. The ease of use is immediately apparent from the moment you log in. The layout is clean, thoughtfully designed, and the UX feels polished and professional without being complicated. Whether you're a seasoned podcaster or just getting started, there is very little friction between you and a great-looking episode. The audio quality is noticeably strong and a significant step up from what most people are used to from Zoom calls. Your guests sound like they're in a real studio, and that matters when you're trying to build a professional show. The video quality matches — crisp, clear, and broadcast-ready, in a way that used to require much more effort and equipment. Where Streamyard really earns its keep is in the production workflow. Adding intros, outros, and midroll videos is simple and seamless, and the multiple screen sharing options give you real flexibility, whether you're hosting a solo episode or bringing in guests. The finished product requires little to no editing before it's ready to publish, which is a genuine time saver and one of Streamyard's biggest selling points. What you record is essentially what you get, and that is a huge deal for busy creators. Customer support has been responsive and helpful when I've needed them, which is always reassuring with a platform you rely on regularly. That said, the pricing is a negative. At $59 a month, Streamyard is already a significant investment, and the fact that creating video clips and transcripts comes with additional fees on top of that is genuinely hard to justify. Those are not niche features — they are core tools for modern podcasters and content creators. At that price point, at least one of them should be included without question. It's the one area where Streamyard leaves you feeling nickel-and-dimed, even though the rest of the experience is so strong. A fantastic platform in many ways, but worth going in with eyes open to what the real monthly cost will look like once you add the features you actually need.

Pros

Ease of use, fantastic layout, clean UX design, features for podcasters, audio quality is very good, much better than Zoom, high-quality video content, easy to add intro, outro, midroll video, little to no editing required of your final video, multiple screen sharing options for guests and solo episodes. Good customer support.

Cons

Given the high cost and the additional fee for creating video clips and transcripts, I feel that if I'm paying $59 a month, one or both of those features should be included.

Pros

Software has potential but got worse after I paid for it.

Cons

This is the first time I've ever seen a product STOP working after paying for it! Everything worked fine in the free trial. Then we upgraded to a paid plan, and immediately after, our webinar registration stopped working. Everything was functioning properly before the upgrade. This issue wasn’t caught immediately, and we ended up spending ~$300 in ads sending traffic to a non-functional page. We’ve reached out through support and every social media channel, but received practically zero assistance despite telling the support team that our webinar is in 5 days! This has been a frustrating experience, especially given that the issue appeared right after becoming a paying customer. It’s difficult to justify relying on a platform when a core feature breaks at such a critical moment and resolution isn’t immediate. I wish I could recommend this software because it does have potential but it is still the first software that I have EVER seen that got worse after I paid for it. Save your money. Go with something else.

The price is a big con. But the pros definitely out ways them. I enjoy the ease of Streamyard.Pros:Editing AI tools Easy to use Customizable Streams to most platforms Live, and record options Guests can share to their channels if a pd member

Pros

Chat and communication, some features, its ease of use, professional output, and audience engagement tools,can easily interact with your viewers by showcasing their live comments

Cons

The free version is limited to: 2 hours of local recordings. Livestreams will not be automatically recorded and saved by Streamyard. 5 hours of recording storage is what you get. the actual purchase is expensive.

The initial experience was very good. They provided a real community feel and devs were responsive. It is sad to see that they now seem to take their subscriber base for granted by being unresponsive.

Pros

The platform itself is great. There is a shallow learning curve and you get a lot of features for a very reasonable price, including the ability to connect to multiple social media platfoms, cue up videos, connect to live guests and brand your studio). I particularly like the way you can use SMS to invite guests via mobile, and the scrolling ticker option.

Cons

The company appear to have abandoned their customers. They used to provide helpful customer support but now they appear to rely on automation to manage everything. Emails come across as rude (not including the customer's name, not reading emails, not responsing to social media queries, etc.) They also hide their prices (which is strange because they're very reasonable)

OBS has a very steep learning curve. With StreamYard, I could just 'plug and play'.

Middling. Very average functionality and ease of use. I like that my own camera will record at 4K. This means I can pan or zoom so my positioning matches that of my guest(s).

Pros

Versatile and relatively easy to use. The buttons occasionally change functionality without warning. Instead of hitting the "Record" button once, you have to click it three times.

Cons

Customer service staff are uncooperative, slow to respond and downright rude. Forget customer service. These people are arrogant in the extreme.

Overall my experience has been great. Its a great alternative to Zoom in some ways. Its free and pretty easy to use.

Pros

I like how easy the platform is to use. Most features are straight forward and i love that they have a free version.

Cons

The only thing i do really like is there is a bit on a learning curve and if you want to do live streaming on certain social media platforms a fee is required.

I've used several streaming platforms to execute webinars, and I'd say Streamyard is among the most user-friendly. The streams go off without a hitch, there's no noticeable lag, and the downloads are high-quality. I use the On-Air Webinars and stream live to LinkedIn successfully as well. Note that there is a short lag going to LinkedIn. The omni-chat is useful to see comments from LinkedIn right within Streamyard, but it is a less-than-ideal experience for LinkedIn viewers when they can't see the in-app Streamyard chat.

Pros

Streamyard is an easy-to-use streaming platform that I've used for live webinars. The on-screen graphics are simple, and it's easy for guest speakers to join and participate. I've had only good quality streaming in my experience.

Cons

I would like Streamyard to allow customization of registration emails. I'd like to be able to customize the content, timing, and frequency.

Pros

I USED to like the product it had everything I needed, and it USED to have a fair price

Cons

Streamyard decided to change their plans, and the basic package I had which was $96 for the year was cancelled. They quadrupled their price to over $400, which has pushed me into looking at all the alternatives and I will switch when my year is up. They decided to "ADD" a lot of features which I will never use as I am a small podcaster, and then have now started to drop the ball on the essentials. For instance local recordings have just disappeared, Audio cutting in and out on local recordings, but on the video file the audio doesn't have any of these cutouts. The processing of the audio gets stuck and never finishes. So instead of polishing their product they have decided to add more features and allow the essential parts to fail
