Riverside Reviews & Product Details

The ease of the use is fantastic. I have over 30 podcasts already and I had never done this before. The AI features are great especially enhancing the voice, the music, the B roll inserts THIS IS THE BEST. The performance has been amazing. My videos are fun to watch and whenever I have any questions, their support is always available to help and gets the issue resolved. Usually its becuase I didnt know there was a special feature or easy link to fix what I needed. The pricing is perfect. It has a lot of stuff for the price. It integrats really nicely with social media platforms. IN fact I publish to Spotify directly from Riverside. Love it Love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far. It has really been great for me as a starting Podcaster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very simple to use including building registration pages that reflect our brand, hosting the live webinar, and post-webinar production. The production tools are very handy including the AI tool that allows you to dub over misspoken words - I've used this several times - and the audio enhancers - love this. I haven't yet used all of the features but so far I'm very happy. The support team was very responsive and helpful the one time I had an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not so much dislikes but things I hope they're working to improve:

There's definitely some background bleeding that reduces the visual quality of the output.

For the registrants/attendees table - there are a few things I wish I could do like exclude company attendees from the overall metrics as they skew the results (company attendees tend to stay the entire webinar)

I feel like the Hubspot integration could do more powerful things. Right now it feels a bit light and unfinished. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how easy Riverside is to use—it makes recording and producing content feel straightforward. The video and audio quality are excellent, and the AI tools are genuinely helpful. Magic Audio stands out in particular because it balances sound really well, boosting quieter speakers and smoothing out overly loud ones. I also appreciate that subtitles are generated automatically and that I can edit videos directly on the platform, which saves a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasionally there are some technical hiccups—for example, the upload percentage doesn’t always display correctly, which can be a bit confusing. I’ve also run into issues with guests’ audio, like their microphones not being recognized or inconsistent sound quality. It would also help if echo cancellation were enabled by default to prevent common audio problems, especially for less technical users.

Pricing is ok, some plans are on the expensive side, but starter ones are fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Riverside makes setting up virtual interviews a breeze. I like the versatility in what can be used to conduct interviews with interviewees, as well. Not just computer with webcam, but tablet and phone. Extremely helpful to have that flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The in house video editor is okay, but it isn’t always intuitive or robust. And sometimes runs very slowly.

Also, I record my audio in 48k and Riverside states it does, as well. However, when I export videos, they export at 44.1k and I don’t understand why. Also, so I have experienced uploading a video to be hosted and shared that uploads fine, but will fall out of sync on other websites that Riverside shares to. This is remedied sometimes by re-uploading, but not always. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that the 2 perspectives are recorded separately so there's always clean audio and video. I love that the editing is started and the magic clips are created for me for social media. It's so superior to any other recording system! It doesn't integrate directly to calendly, but Riverside showed me how to get it connected. Now it automates it for me so all of my podcast recordings and webinars are a breeze! Their pricing is comparable to Zoom for so much more value. It replaces an employee. I edit my own hour long podcast in about 90-120 minutes and really like the results. Then, I use clips of that which Riverside automatically sorts by subject and scores for their effectiveness. I can even use AI to adjust my video so eye contact is direct! The magic sound seems to take all the background noise out that my microphone and studio don't filter and makes it sound more dynamic. I 'am a walking billboard, telling everyone about how effective it is, how powerful it is, how cheap it is, and how simple it is to use! I just want them to make all my software now!

Nothing. truly. I have used Zoom, Teams, and Streamyard, among several others. None are as intuitive, or hold a candle to the ease of use or the results I get. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Super easy to use. Proactively solves problems and gives clear, easy-to-follow instructions on how to fix them. An all-in-one podcast production environment so I don't have to have a bunch of different software. Incredibly good quality recordings and the separated recordings of each speaker really helps my editor. The AI is amazing at creating shorts as well as show notes in whatever style you want. Integrates well with other software. And the pricing for everything you get is better than anything I've found out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't work in Safari. Very minor issue though Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Riverside.fm makes it easy to produce professional-level podcasts and video content, even as a solo creator. The local recording feature ensures crystal-clear audio and video, and the interface is intuitive and streamlined. I also appreciate the ability to invite remote guests without sacrificing quality. It saves me time and helps me create polished episodes consistently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The occasional syncing issues between video and audio can be a bit frustrating, and sometimes the post-production rendering takes longer than expected. I'd also love to see more customization options for video layouts. But overall, these are minor issues compared to the platform’s overall reliability and quality.

I work as a Dietician and Nutritionist and manage a homeopathy clinic. i also do online consultations and create health education and teaching videos, so recording is part of my regular work.

Riverside is simple to start and does not take much setup. I can quickly record videos for patient guidance or diet explanation, which saves time during clinic hours.

For online consultations, I sometimes record small videos to explain routine or diet. The audio and video quality is clear, so patients can understand properly without repeated explanation.

I also find some AI features useful in my work. The thumbnail option helps in creating a proper preview easily, and Magic clips is helpful when I need to take short parts from a longer video for quick explanations. Features like transcription and basic editing also help when needed.

It fits well in my workflow, I can record and directly use the content for patients or teaching. Overall it makes my work easier without making things complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t have any major issues. when I record multiple videos in a day, managing and naming them properly becomes important, otherwise it can take a bit of time to find the exact recording later. It’s not a big problem, just something I noticed during regular use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy Riverside is to use without sacrificing quality. The platform is incredibly intuitive, so I can focus on the conversation instead of worrying about the tech. The recording quality is consistently high, which is critical for a professional podcast, and the editing tools are powerful but still simple to navigate. It saves me a ton of time and makes the entire process, from recording to final cut, feel seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s not much to dislike. Occasionally there’s a minor technical hiccup, but it’s rare and typically resolves quickly without impacting the overall experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I absolutely love working with Riverside FM, editing is much easier and if I have a problem I can always use chatbot or talk to a real person, although the chatbot is really good at finding the problem which is another plus for using Riverside. The ease of learning the editing tools and the co creator tools are absolutely amazing! Also having the help videos on YouTube are also really helpful. My overall experience has been great and whatever issues I have there is always a way to help and grow in producing my podcast Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t have a downside to using Riverside, even when I first started and was new to podcasting and didn’t know how to edit, it was a wealth of knowledge on the website and YouTube channel Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
