**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Arts and Crafts | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021

In one sentence- It makes life so much easier for people like me(small YouTubers and content creators) by providing free quality music. In addition, Uppbeat recommends various charts catering to the different needs of the user.

Although it did not happen with me but I have seen people receiving copyright claims using music from Uppbeat. I also heard that Uppbeat provides good support and response for the same.

It has so many different types of albums, sad, funny, happy, vlog, that I was able to find the perfect music for the video right then and there- It is just awesome.

  ### 3. Fantastic Music Collection of Copyright Free Music

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Elba María M. | Small Business Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2022

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

The very large collection of music and how easy is it to browse and download what you are looking for. You have available a favorites library and you can search, listen, and download all at the same time.

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

You don't have available a favorites library for artists. There isn't a category for latin, and this is the category I usually need the most. The search needs a bit of work.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

To create tutorial videos and slideshows without the hassle of copyright infringement. I do have the Premium membership.

  ### 4. Best Stock music platform available for small creators

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** SATYAM G. | Developer Mentor, E-Learning, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

The best thing about it is that it's FREE.
The copyright-free music.
Extremely easy to use and manage.
The base sound is very clear.
All the music is the latest and new music is added frequently.

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

There is a very limited variety of music available in free Products, if you want more then you need to subscribe to premium.
Also that it only allows 10 free music per month.
Apart from this, there is nothing that beats this site.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am able to get a free, copyright-free, and wide variety of music for my youtube videos. I am someone who needs different kinds of audio for my content and after discovering Uppbeat I am able to upload videos without any concern. Earlier I used to get many copyright claims and that was really sad.

  ### 5. Stock music beats with no copyright issues

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dr. Dinbandhu S. | Freelance Researcher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 31, 2021

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

Lots of free music beats for YouTube videos and other platforms with no tension of copyright claims. Well Categorized music beats. Simple in use with attractive interface. Doesn't require premium subscription for a low-to-moderate user.

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

Registration is a must for downloading the music beats. A free user (having no premium subscription) is allowed to download only 10 beats in a month. Copyright strike may occur if proper credit is not given to the music creator.

**Recommendations to others considering Uppbeat:**

A friendly platform for downloading background music/beats for videos and that is also without worrying about any copyright issues/claims.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In this era, finding copyright-free music is a big challenge. Then I came to know about this platform. I used it for downloading copyright-free beats and kept them as background music in my videos.

  ### 6. Uppbeat Music for My Weekly Vlogs at Mendel

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Benny P. | Executive Assistant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

I can find non copyrighted music to use in my vlogs. This way I don't have to worry about my vidoes being flagged for copyrighted music. Super easy to use too as they have tons of music!

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

As of right now I am using the free version so I get 10 downloads per month. So if I download more than 10, I essentially have to wait until next month when they refresh back to 10 downloads. I am in the process of getting premium at Uppbeat.

**Recommendations to others considering Uppbeat:**

Of course since you are starting YouTube and starting out a channel. Music is one of the things that could drive someone not to go YouTube full time.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm solving copyright music strives because it can be tricky when using certain music on YouTube. If not done correctly, you can get strikes in your YouTube channel. If you get 3 then your channel is gone on the platform.

  ### 7. Great Selection of Copyright Free Music

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Emelda D. | UX Design Intern, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 29, 2021

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

I like the different genres of music that Uppbeat curates. You can be guaranteed to have the choicest selection of music for any mood. The free account means you can sample the music before you make a payment.

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

I haven't particularly found something that I don't like about uppbeat. The website is simple and intuitive. The music is curated in a well organised manner and one can get good quality sounds at very little or no cost at all.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use uppbeat to create social media content and podcast content. Being able to set the mood and tone of video and audio content allows my audience to connect at an emotional level making my brand more relatable.

  ### 8. Best Music App Out there

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dhiraj G. | Blogger, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 07, 2021

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

This is one of the best music service software that I have ever used. They have a huge library of music and SFX for every mood and the price is affordable too. The support team is the best I would say. They reply quickly if we encounter any issues. I am happy because I am a Youtuber and this software is my best friend on Youtube. It allows us to use 10 music per month on a free account. I think it is sufficient. The music is of high quality and enjoyable.

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

I didn't find anything wrong with this. If I find something, I would definitely quote in future.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Personally, it helped me to use their high-quality music on my youtube channel. I can easily search for the songs or based on moods, instruments, etc. The result is very straightforward and desirable. The selection of songs or music is adorable with impressive customer support. Thanks to the developer's team. Depending on the mood, I thoroughly enjoy the song on this app.

  ### 9. Perfect stock music site for small business

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy S. | Communications Coordinator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2021

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

The base registered account allows for 10 free downloads per month. This is the perfect amount for a smaller business that doesn't have an overwhelming number of monthly projects that require a music bed. The service is also well run with extensive options.

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

I like to be able to quickly browse many tracks. The way the results pages are set up provides a small window to click play on each track, and you do have to manually click each one instead of a quick scroll or hover.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The easiest benefit to pinpoint is not having to worry about the licenses for music beds on videos, since the service takes care of that hassle for us. Definitely makes life easier.

  ### 10. A nice collection of catchy contemporary copyright free music

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tarunabh D. | Film Direction and Production, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2021

**What do you like best about Uppbeat?**

I'm always on the lookout for good music for my videos, and uppbeat has provided me with just that. I love Uppbeat's music and consider them a great contributor to my projects. The collection they offer is huge and I use it in all my videos. It has a great variety and I can find something for every mood I want to portray in the video. The best part is that they provide me with awesome music without any copyright issues and at an affordable price! The site navigation is also great!

**What do you dislike about Uppbeat?**

When I first licensed a track for use on my newly uploaded youtube video, I faced a copyright claim notice despite paying for the music track. I had to manually submit a dispute and after that, the issue was resolved but I faced some inconvenience nevertheless. Also, I don't have access to variants of any music track like various versions of different durations as offered in Audiojungle or Soundstripe site. Another huge drawback is that the final licensed track available for download is in mp3 format and not in wav format which is the minimum standard for professional use. So despite being a premium member I can only download mp3 versions of the tracks which is inferior quality.

**What problems is Uppbeat solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Uppbeat has been a pleasant surprise for me because of its quality collection of music tracks, which has saved me time and stress, as I am not a musician and need hundreds of background music tracks to support my video content. I am using Uppbeat for my youtube videos and they are absolutely outstanding. I love the range of styles and genres, as well as the quality of the soundtracks. I can license any of their tracks for my videos and use them with no fear of getting a copyright claim. Uppbeat is the perfect place for people like me who are always looking for new music to use in their videos and I highly recommend it to all video creators out there.
