## Reviews

### "UNRELIABLE" — 1.0/5

> **Jawaad** | *5 December 2025* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Interface is ok. That's about it..
> 
> **Cons**: Virtually absent customer support, hidden behind several logins, and pages. Take over 48 hours to reply, if you're lucky.
> 
> Disastrous. Wirecast claims to be a feature-rich software, but the foundation is so unstable. Numerous crashes, days spent fixing corrupted files. &#10;We gave Wirecast a fair shot. But nothing but a series of disappointments.

### "Best Live Streaming Software I've Seen" — 4.0/5

> **Harrison** | *20 March 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's very easy to understand how to use; I also find it to have everything I need when live streaming to Facebook, YouTube, or Vimeo.
> 
> **Cons**: The audio settings can be a bit cumbersome to get right.
> 
> I have been very pleased with Wirecast. I have barely experienced any issues and have not had to dedicate substantial time to understand how it works.

-----

### "Great Layout" — 5.0/5

> **Spencer** | *20 December 2024* | Research | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Software is Super easy to use and great layout.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the application can be a bit buggy.

### "Wirecast is a great tool for Live-streaming\!" — 5.0/5

> **Frank . P.** | *14 October 2021* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software is easy to set up. Even if one does not have a good background of it, it is easy to master. It took me just a week to start streaming on my own. I really liked the professional interface it provides, which is also very user friendly. Everything is clear and colorful. Whenever i faced some challenges, their customer support was very helpful. I really appreciate their effort. With Wirecast, I am now streaming on both You Tube and Facebook. The Wirecast Pro is a very good tool, that is indeed value for money. Wirecast produces fantastic streams especially for me because I use Blackmagic streaming product kit.
> 
> **Cons**: If the machine freezes, you have to restart the session. Also I have found out that it requires a stable connection of internet.
> 
> Since I switched from other live-streaming applications and started using Wirecast, I have produced fantastic work and I have seen great results. It is not difficult to setup and use, the interface is great and you can customize your streams to suit your needs. Fantastic Software\!

### "Wirecast works well but it does take some time to learn, however, the customer service is excellent" — 5.0/5

> **Philip** | *23 November 2021* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to set up a series of scenes that play one after the other without having to interact with the software.  This enables me to be a one man show with a certain finesse that would be difficult to do without this feature.  I also like that I can connect it to my broadcast cameras and record isos independently of the mix I'm streaming live (so I can re-edit and re-purpose the raw "live" footage at it highest quality later).
> 
> **Cons**: The price point is a bit restrictive, however the customer service is worth it for the most part.  The thing is upgrades are costly and older versions are not always compatible with OS updates, so I couldn't use it with all my computers and that is exactly why I switched to OBS recently.
> 
> I was able to do what I set out to do - go live on social media with my broadcast quality cameras and audio.  I did this regularly for a period of time and was able to teach my apprentice how to use my gear so that I could concentrate more on being talent than camera operator/producer/audio recordist, etc...Then he decided not to participate and I stopped broadcasting for a while.  When I got back into it I realized that my yearly subscription has run out and I decided to give OBS another try.  My experience and confidence with Wirecast made it easier for me use OBS.
