Airtime vs. OBS Studio

mmhmm is, by far, the absolute best presentation platform I have found - and I have looked a lot and demoed a lot of them. The flexibility, ease of use and visually engaging experience that mmhmm provides has, without fail, been a game changer tool no matter the presentation styles. While it is, hands down, the best virtual presentation platform, I have not been able to level up my in-person experiences to the same degree as I have online. I will continue to explore how and where I can integrate the mmhmm Studio toolsets to pump up my in-person experiences.

From simple streaming to bigger events, OBS has been able to handle all of it with full confidence from us. Have never questioned if it was going to be unreliable in a specific situation, even with minimal training. Software identified the external input source easily and had no issues setting that up (Blackmagic Mini Recorder), and great for pulling in separate audio from the computer input.

• The up front presenter in front of my slides
• Easily integrates static slides, animations and video without having to have vast technical skills.
• It's an intuitive application to use. In a few minutes you sign up, start a new presentation and you're underway. It's pretty plug-n-play.
• I've recommended it to my "non-technical" friends and they love it. They told me it was super easy to use and has made them more excited to create and share their presentations.

• Free software for live telecast
• Open source project for video recording
• Powerful video recording
• Written in C and C++
• Totally virus free and free download
• Collaborates with Facebook live and YouTube live streaming.
• Computer screen recording
• A hub for collectting source and broadcast

• In the future I might like to see a fast-swap handoff to fellow presenters like we do in a live presentation.
• Getting more updates on the platform advances in emails would be helpful. Like the recent sharing of useful templates was awesome.
• I'd like to see more user stories shared to see how others are using the platform to make their presentations stand out. These kinds of things are helpful in feeding my ideas and insights for my next meeting, presentation and lessons.

• OBS can be a little clunky sometimes, the lots of features can be a bit overwhelming
• I can multitask with it, but can't run heavy software like Premiere alongside it
• No way to make adjustments to file after it's done, have to use After Effects or Premiere for that

Very usable because it is free and has had a lot of people helping to suggest improvements and sponsors have allowed the product to grow in sophistication and suitability across a variety of situations and use needs. It is very logical to use once you get started, although the dashboard can seem intimidating at first.

For a free product, a range of support is available. There are plenty of ways to find out answers to questions, because there are probably thousands of people using the product who are willing to share what they have learned. It usually works as designed, so needs for support are limited.

Of all the platforms out there - believe me, I've tried them all - or try to avoid them whenever I can - mmhmm stands on its own with its unique platform benefits, visualizations, ease of use, sharability, affordability, and overall "Wow" factor that we hope to get from our audiences. No matter what it is we are presenting. To have that ability to integrate and gravitate to our presentations has proven to be a game changer that really did not take a lot for us to do. Even better is the fact that we still may have to - for whatever reason - build a presentation in one of the slide builder apps we can still import them seamlessly into mmhmm and use the mmhmm interface as our camera when we use the other platforms. It's been a complete win, win, win all around.

Only one reason which is that OBS studio is free and open source and we had team members capable of using it effectively. Other softwares have great prebuilt features which make it super easy to go live for small streams and individual streamers.
