Being able to record, edit, and publish all right from here is fantastic. > > **Cons**: With all the capabilities it has, there has to be some sort of additional training outside of just the youtube videos because they don't give the amound of detail needed to really become and expert in the product. Wholesale changes to the interface was also an unwelcome shock to the system. > > Overall very good until something goes wrong becuase the support is not up to the quality of the program itself. Too hard to reach, too long to respond... ----- ### "Riverside: It's More Than Podcasting, A Boatload More\!" — 5.0/5 > **Tracy** | *17 August 2026* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the quality and the ability to make "shorts" from my content. The AI editing tool has been my "go to" for audio tweaking on all my videos, whether it's in Riverside ro from an interview that I've captured on site. > > **Cons**: I think the only issue that I have currently with riverside is to only be able to schedule 3 podcast interviews at a time. I think being able to schedule up to 10 would make schedule easier for us. > > The ability to cloud record remote interviews has been a game changer for our company. Also, I am able to edit with AI assistance video shorts has given us another piece to moentize. ----- ### "Stick with Zoom over Riverside\!" — 3.0/5 > **Shannon** | *22 November 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really liked the video download quality. It was clear and high quality recordings I could use in my self-paced courses. I also liked many of the editing features like being able to take out portions of video by simply taking out the text transcript. So easy\! > > **Cons**: A lot of things were not as good as Zoom. You can’t share sound only. If you want to share your computer sound you must also share that screen with your audience or students. I’m a dance teacher so this is a feature I have to have. You can buy MP3s and then upload them to Riverside and play them, but the music will not line up with your body movements or mouth if you’re a singer in the recording. Laying music tracks over your video is nearly impossible in the editor because it randomly just jumps around. You also can’t animate graphics or text like you can if editing in Canva. Meaning, you can’t have things bounce in or anything special. The screen share is also an odd view, there is white space in the recording over the screen. > > Overall, it may be good for talking head videos or podcasters, but if you are an educator or want music or the ability to have a lot of co grip over the timeline graphics and text, this is not the software I would choose. The price is reasonable, but features just aren’t there for me that I use daily. ----- ### "Video Creating, Editing, and Delivery best bang for the buck" — 5.0/5 > **Michael** | *1 June 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: With Riverside, adding Guests, taping, editing, creating shorts, and much more are made super simple. This is all done at a reasonable cost compared to going to separate services. > > **Cons**: There are some limitations with the editing. I find I do my initial edit in Riverside, which is really super easy, then I download it and use a more powerful PC based editor to complete the edits for a much more polished look. Its not that you cannot get a professional look from Riverside's editing, however, I had a format I was using PRIOR to coming to Riverside and wanted to maintain that, which I found I could not do with their editor. > > Riverside has really streamlined the entire process for me. As I am learning the new features, things just get better and better. For example, I can load my show notes into Riverside, and it can help me give my Episode a title, or a short YouTube description. It can be helpful in creating a thumbnail as well with AI. I think the biggest time saver is how it creates the shorts. The AI has become very good at doing this, and if you feel like it cut something off or started too late, you can easily go in and edit the short by following the transcript, making it easy to find the word or phrase you want to add to your clip. The biggest time saver in editing is how it can remove all of you dead air moments, of your Ummm's and Ahh's, almost seamlessly. Really, it is a no-brainer. For the price, you get high-quality video, most of your video-creating tasks and editing done for you, and when I had to use customer support, they were spot on and very helpful. ----- Page: 1 / 12\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1042331/riverside?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1042331/riverside) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
