Our company actively uses StreamYard for live streaming special events, info sessions, and panel discussions. We use also StreamYard to record interviews and info sessions for our external audience. StreamYard helps us to add visuals, slides, and videos to our live streams, which make our social media appearance more professional and engaging.
  • It has an easy and comfortable interface for participants and admins.
  • It provides the opportunity to add videos, banners, and slides to your session.
  • It provides the opportunity to show live comments and answer to them right from StreamYard.
  • I would like to be able to change default layout via admin in some instances because for example, itā€™s a cropped layout for 2+ speakers by default.
  • I would like the opportunity to copy comments from the comments section (even if we need to paste it to private chat).
  • I would like the opportunity to share the link to download video with guest speakers.
StreamYard is a great tool to create good-looking and engaging live sessions on social media. It allows adding visuals and videos, showing comments, as well as communicating with your audience and speakers in one place. StreamYard is also a great tool to film interviews or info sessions for those who are not familiar with video editing as it allows you to add all the necessary visuals with one click. StreamYard is great for communication with an extended audience.
  • It has increased the reach rate and the number of followers on social media pages, for example, on our Youtube page, the number of followers increased by 2 times the original amount.
  • It has reduced the amount of time our communications team spends on editing videos.
  • More team members are able to use StreamYard by themselves, which has allowed us to reduce the time our communications team spends on managing live sessions before.
The StreamYard interface is more functional and easy to understand for participants, speakers, and team members. StreamYard also allows managing live streams in the app without the need to go to social media for checking comments, replying to them, etc. Simultaneously, StreamYard has many more options compared to other similar tools. For example, it allows sharing slides from different PowerPoints and screens, adding videos, visuals, and live comments with one click. Due to these options, we save time on managing live sessions and our broadcasts look much more professional and engaging.

Hi, I'm using StreamYard to broadcast my live interview session over my company's LinkedIn, YouTube, and Facebook social channels. Align events, create them for each account, manage the live session on air, and record everything is usually a pain. With StreamYard, I've solved all of them with one tool. I can program everything in advance and quickly go live.
  • Broadcasting across channels
  • Scheduling broadcasts
  • Recording broadcasts
  • Managing live comments
  • Personalize the experience with branded skin
  • Provide with a transcription service
  • Increase the interaction level with polls
  • Allow blurred background
StreamYard is easy to use from the beginning. You don't have to be an expert, and you can go live quickly and hassle-free. So great for interviews, round-table, and frontal events. I recommend using something else to manage webinars or where you need an interactive audience, like in a workshop.
  • You are going to save a lot of time
OBS is tricky to use and run. My laptop refused to install some components, and I've never been able to solve that. On the other hand, StreamYard is cloud-based, and you only need your browser to go live. It is easy to manage your guests. Maybe it would be great with co-hosting possibilities.

We currently use it to stream our podcast LIVE to Facebook, LinkedIn, and Youtube three times per week. It is our main channel for promoting the business and building strategic relationships. The simplicity of the platform has come in handy for the development of the show and the consistency needed to lift the podcast off the ground.
  • Easy access to stream to multiple locations at the same time
  • Simple and intuitive user interface.
  • Self-explanatory. Small learning curve to be able to master it.
  • One big downside is that you can't download separate high quality video and audio files for each person in the stream.
  • The simplicity takes away from the "customization" that you could potentially have in other platforms.
  • A backroom where you could communicate with other people in the stream, without streaming it while live, would be very useful.
We usually recommend it to those that want to start streaming their podcasts LIVE and don't have much bandwidth for learning new software. Its simplicity is perfect for beginners. That being said, if the person we are talking to wants to be able to download high-quality video and audio files after the stream is over -for post-production reasons- we usually refer them to different software.
  • Since we started the LIVE podcast on StreamYard we have added over $200k in top-line revenue. Keep in mind there are processes around this and StreamYard is just a piece of the puzzle. An important piece that allows us to be consistent.
  • It has helped us be consistent for over 200 episodes of the podcast.
There are other options we have tried that are not here, but the strength of StreamYard is its ease of use and the ability to easily connect to multiple social media channels and stream to all of them at the same time. Some other software has other strengths that StreamYard lacks such as the ability to download separate HD files, more flexibility with elements on the screen, etc.
