I wouldn't say I like downloads (except for the reason to try them), especially for software I use often. Hence, Wowza Streaming Cloud comes fast in the bargain for me because I wont download anything. I have been able to stream live from my browser as it can stream from any browser, and browser-based streaming is simple. 2. The capability to stream pre-recorded and pre-edited videos as LIVE videos on my YouTube channel is a winner all the way. It enhances my live video message as clarity and quality come to the fore. 3. The 1 Month Free Trial is top class and long enough for one to use and appreciate all what this tool can do. If your live streaming projects are for business, then within the trial period, you can make enough money to continue using it as a paid user after the trial is over. Thus the software owners have the poor me in mind as much as they think about the rich user. Talk about empathy\! > > **Cons**: The fact that you must pay for an upgrade to access better enhanced support is an apparent turn-off to start-ups on low budgets. Start-ups have the most questions and need full access to support services regardless of their membership status. They want to learn how to use the software to make money and come back to pay for the upgrade and not to be charged for learning your software. Asking for help to use your software correctly must never be paid for in any way. > > Live videos on YouTube bring higher numbers of views and subscribers. The more views I have for my videos, the more clicks I generate on my affiliate links that go along with the videos. The more clicks on my affiliate links, the more sales I make. Wowza Cloud Streaming is highly beneficial. ----- ### "Fantastic live streaming platform" — 5.0/5 > **Zachary** | *23 September 2020* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Wowza Streaming cloud is a super solid live streaming platform that offers cloud transcoding, integration with other platforms and offers a lot of advanced features. > > **Cons**: Faster support responses are an upgraded fee. > > This has been a great platform and we have been using it for years now. ----- ### "To expensive and to much errors" — 3.0/5 > **Lars** | *5 September 2023* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: At first it was a good and easy software. > > **Cons**: The social-media integration is not good enough > > But from year to year, we had more problems. The support is bad. We cannot afford this support-Programms\! ----- ### "Suitable for Pay as you go user like us. Whenever we used it, the performance was 100 %" — 5.0/5 > **Mustansir** | *6 September 2023* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: ease to use and compatibility with most of the encoders > > **Cons**: Best available platform for small n mid class industry > > Im really satisfied with the product and services. I would really like to recommend my management for wowza infrastructure and inhouse servers. ----- ### "Wowza is the streaming engine par excellence" — 5.0/5 > **Eliezer** | *14 September 2023* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using the Wowza video engine for several years, because it provides me with stability, key features to connect with social media, integration with a billing panel, and a powerful API. > > **Cons**: The cost has been increasing over time and is one of the most expensive, but in my experience it is worth it. > > The quality of the emissions is very high, the engine is so powerful that it efficiently manages video transcoding. Sure, as long as the hardware requirements are met. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/202899/wowza-video?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/202899/wowza-video) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
