What do you like best about Dacast?

DaCast is reliable, consistent and very good value for the money Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dacast?

It is a great product but we would like an easier and less expensive solution to be able to have pay per view or subscription for viewers, we are a small nonprofit and we can't charge or earn enough in viewers to pay the high cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DaCast for Corporate Live-Streaming"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Dacast?

I like that live-streams are incredibly easy to set-up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dacast?

This might be due to the fact that we don't live-stream very often, but it seems like every time we are getting a corporate event together and I set up the channel, things are different and our account must be adjusted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great service at a good price! "
5/5
What do you like best about Dacast?

I'm part of the digital marketing department in my company and am responsible for managing our live video campaigns. I already had basic knowledge of live streaming before discovering DaCast i.e. encoders, software, web players etc. But by no means am I an industry pro. DaCast made it so easy to set up my account and learn how to use their service. Most of the questions or confusions I had could be found on their support site, but whenever I needed immediate assistance, they were able to help me in a timely and friendly manner. The starting price is EXCELLENT and even with that package you're still getting valuable features and great customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dacast?

We've been using DaCast for almost a month now and haven't encountered any issues! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"best Video Streaming CDN"
4/5
What do you like best about Dacast?

I've troubled a lot with Streaming in the platform especially with ive streaming and used tons of services in the past. I've to say dacast is one of the best streaming services out there. of all the features in dacast the social sharing is the most helpful tool for me which help me stream the video live to facebook. the software integrates well with webcams as well as digital camera's. paywall integration is another great feature in dacst that lets you create a pay per view layer and create unique user logins to access the content. its also very easy to embed the HTML player to the websites and dacast doesn't show any ads unlike many other services out there. the pricing is also cheap when it comes to dacast and the monthly plan starts at just $19. the customer service is absolutely great and they are online 24/7 to help you out with the questions. there are tons of options available after uploading the videos. you can set your own privacy settings and closed captions according to your need.they also offer a free trial to try their service before paying for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dacast?

sometimes the uploading freezes and frequent failures happen while uploading large files through the browser. the interface isn't really appealing comping with other similar services out there. analytics of the video needs improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simplicity is the key! Dacast platform is very well made so that I could stream easily - I am a beginner. Their support team was very helpful every time I needed them. They are real people that can help you with many things (I even got to talk with an engineer).

The price is correct for my use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing at all! I have been using it for around 5 months now and I have not seen any flaw - yet ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good unbranded video hosting that can also host audio well."
5/5
What do you like best about Dacast?

The price is right for us as we are not focused on video. It is easy to use has more features than we need. One important feature for us is being able to set the thumbnail to whatever we want.

They have a very nice audio player that has been an excellent solution to occasional needs for audio in web pages. The player looks good too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dacast?

I have no complaints. That is a fact. Many years ago there were some bumps as the world switched from Flash players to responsive HTML players. But they were on top of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cheap & Easy Video Hosting"
5/5
What do you like best about Dacast?

I like that vzaar is relatively inexpensive for video hosting, but also gives you features like CTAs, ability to add popup forms / lead collection, GA tracking. Their chat support is outstanding and always goes above and beyond to help me figure out workarounds when I'm trying to figure how to do things that aren't readily available out of the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dacast?

Occasionally we'll have a caching issue where the browser needs to be rebooted to watch the video. I also wish some of the features were easier to manipulate (like the CTA at the end of the video, styling has to be done in Java and not right within their platform) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
