"Wirecast for Corporate Live-Streams"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Wirecast?

I like the ease of use that we can basically turn on our live-stream laptop, fire up Wirecast and get started with a live-stream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wirecast?

I'm really reaching here, but I don't like that I wasn't notified of new requirements for streaming when they were implemented. The last time we had a live-stream, I had to get on the phone with support because the stream was failing, but then they told me the streaming requirements had changed since the last time we used the product.

"Easy to use video streaming software"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Wirecast?

The best part of Wirecast is how easy it is to use. Being able to setup and plan a live stream is very simple. The user interface is intuitive. And it offers a lot of solutions and flexibility it it's setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wirecast?

Wirecast doesn't update their software very fast. For example, their current version isn't supported by MacOS High Sierra and crashes when you try to go live. So having to wait for them to update their software in timely fashion can be a little frustrating. Also, this software requires a very powerful computer and a laptop just isn't able to process the data fast enough, so a very powerful desktop computer is needed for high quality video.
