"Playlister- answers questions I didn't even know I had."

What do you like best about Playlister?

The ease of use and getting information to my leaders seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Playlister?

When moving or picking items in playlists, it pops up the preview window too quickly getting on the way of seeing where I'm trying to drop the file. This is the only thing I've found I don't like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use with Orange"
5/5

Playlister has made it very easy to utilize Orange curiculum each month and is automatically loaded for me and loaded into the classrooms. I can customize my accounts based on our usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Playlister?

Uploading additional items into playlister has sometimes proven difficult and required me to delete and reload items like additional songs or files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cool Service, Not Worth the Money"
1/5
What do you like best about Playlister?

Playlister makes it easy to create playlists tailored to each week's lesson. Orange already populates their content into the interface, which allows me to task my volunteers with routinely updating the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Playlister?

I wish I could utilize Playlister on a desktop in addition to Apple TVs. I also wish I could synchronize my Apple TVs to play a specific playlist simultaneously. The annual price per screen is egregious for the service that it's offering. We ended up switching to private playlists on Youtube Premium instead. The annual Youtbe Premium membership is abotu 1/3 cheaper than one annual screen license on Playlister and can easily be streamed on Apple TVs in our classrooms.

Response from Chris Holland of Playlister

Thank you for sharing this feedback!

We'd love to learn more about your situation and see what can be done to improve how the Apple TVs receive the correct content.

Could you email "hello[at]playlister.app" with the subject line "Inconsistent service" so we can continue this discussion?

"Pretty good, but it's expensive and lacks a couple important features"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Playlister?

The user interface is very easy to understand and navigate. The Orange integration makes it extremely easy to get curriculum ready. I really like that they use an Apple TV as the presentation device. Very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Playlister?

I was primarily hoping to use Playlister for digital signage. While it appears they are planning to introduce a transition feature for auto advancing slides, they do not currently have that option which is a deal breaker for me when it comes to digital signage. The monthly cost is also higher than what I'd like to spend for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Playlister has been a great upgrade for our ministry."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Playlister?

One of the standout features of Playlister is the balance of functionality with user-friendliness. The platform has a really well-organized layout that minimizes clutter without sacrificing essential tools. The cloud-based browser feature makes it easy to collaborate and streamline across departments. Overall, it's greatly helped improve the communication experience within our ministry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Playlister?

-Rather than having to delete a slide, it would be great to just update an existing slide.

-Adding more users isn't the most user friendly experience. On our end, every time we add a new user you have to send them a reset password link. Instead, it would be probably more efficient to just send a signup/login link for a new user to fill out their own account details.

"Playlister for Multisite"
5/5
What do you like best about Playlister?

Playlister is very user friendly. We have a wide variety of end users with varied technical abilities, but all of our end users have had only positive feedback about Playlister! Because Playlister runs on Apple TVs, we are saving money and minimizing the number of laptops & desktop computers that need supported, and they are easy to deploy in virtually any space with an existing TV. Since content downloads to the app, video playback is more reliable than streaming. And this platform allows a small, centralized team to support dozens of classes, gatherings, and groups, ranging in size from a few people to hundreds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Playlister?

When Playlister is loaded as an app on Apple TV, the icon is called "Screen", rather than "Playlister". This can cause confusion for some of our end users who are less tech-savvy and new to using the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
