1. The overall platform has been excellent

2. Regular upgradation of the platform features

3. Customer Support

4.UI is very user friendly

5. With a few additions on the platform features it will be a great replacement of OBS ( this is possible looking at way the management is implementing the features with technology as required by the users ) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. I think castr will be a competition to many going ahead if they implement all the features which are on their wishlist to implement ( its just time that they need to manage ) so basically i dont dislike but many others will Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the very fast part of Castr and also the management of live content, which is very intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In my opinion, the multilingual feature should be improved; only English is available, but addressing an international audience, it would be appropriate to have other languages as well. Also, regarding the ticket commissions, it would be appropriate to state that besides those from castr, there are also those from starpi and to what extent they are present.

We use Castr every week to livestream our Sunday services, and it’s been a fantastic solution for our church. We love that Castr provides a stable, reliable stream with powerful features, at a competitive price. We’ve looked at other platforms, but none match what Castr offers for the value.

One of the things we appreciate most is how user-friendly Castr is. We started using it during COVID-19 when we had to learn how to livestream quickly—and Castr made that transition incredibly smooth. We were up and running in no time, and we’ve experienced almost zero stability issues since we began using it in 2020.

Recently, we even downgraded our subscription since we no longer needed some of the features we previously used. The process was refreshingly simple—the billing page was easy to find and navigate, and I didn’t need to call anyone or sit through a sales pitch. I just selected the plan we needed—no hassle.

When we've had to reach out to customer service it's been a bit of a long process. Our issues have always gotten solved but sometimes it just felt like we were waiting a while to hear back. We haven't needed to reach out in a feew years, though, so this could be different now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its ability to multi stream and do it effeciently, it has seemless integration and makes my job easier and less hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

everything so far has been a pro, I have not found a con that is note worthy as of yet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Castr was the least expensive solution that we could find, and it works great. No issues with lags, or performance issues at all. We have used the service for several years with no reason to look elsewhere as it just "works." They constantly seem to improve it and add features as well - like direct streaming to our website as well as to facebook and youtube. Their support has always responded very wuickly and answered any questions we had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The first-time setup took some time at first, but not unreasonable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Castr makes multi-streaming incredibly simple, allowing me to broadcast to multiple platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch all at once. The interface is user-friendly and the streaming quality is consistently high. I also love the scheduling feature, which makes it easy to plan ahead and automate streams. It saves a lot of time and effort, especially for content creators who want to maximize their reach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside is that the pricing can be a bit steep for smaller creators or those just starting out. It would be great to see more flexible or budget-friendly plans. Additionally, while the analytics are useful, they could be more detailed or offer better real-time insights. Occasionally, there’s a slight delay in platform syncing, but it’s usually resolved quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Responsive, knowledgeable support

The Castr team is sharp, helpful, and always available when we need technical or strategic input.

Clear, competitive pricing

Their Ultra plan at €3000/year with 60 TB of bandwidth is incredibly well-positioned for the level of service it provides. It’s a sound investment for our most demanding productions.

nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

From the initial contact made with the sales team, the support and advice has been excellent also bringing features to my attention that I didn't know about but have been really useful and also very easy to use and integrate in to my existing setup.

The software gives me excellent insight in to my streaming and gives me confidence in providing my services to my customers.

It's an perfect next step for those looking to level up thier streaming solutions who maybe using more basic offerings from thier competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I dislike about Castr! I have found no faults with it at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Castr supports streaming to most social platforms with good documentation for setting up the various endpoints. I can't remember a time where any service disruption that we experienced was on them. The platform is well considered and there documentation is completed enough that I have never had to test their customer support. We use Castr every Sunday to live stream our church services to Youtube and Facebook. I have tested Instagram and twitter as well. We also have a video player embedded on our website.

My only complaint is that their API is paywalled to their more expensive plans preventing my from completely automating our live streaming process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
