Wowza Cloud Streaming has become the go-to solution for many users seeking a convenient and comprehensive streaming platform. By eliminating the need to set up their own media server and CDN, users have found a one-stop solution to their streaming needs. This has not only saved them time and effort but has also simplified their workflow, allowing them to focus on creating and delivering high-quality content. The convenience of Wowza Cloud Streaming has been particularly appreciated by those who rely on live videos for their business. By leveraging the platform's capabilities, they have witnessed a significant increase in viewership and subscribers on platforms like YouTube. This, in turn, has translated into more clicks on affiliate links and ultimately boosted sales for these users. With Wowza's support and reliability, customers have been able to achieve seamless streams, fostering trust and satisfaction among users.

In addition to commercial applications, Wowza Streaming Cloud has proven invaluable in enabling remote participation in events such as football games. As families found themselves unable to attend these events due to social distancing restrictions, the platform allowed them to live stream the games and be part of the experience from afar. The ease of capturing footage in real-time and sharing it afterward has further enhanced this experience, ensuring that loved ones can still feel connected even when physical attendance is not possible. With years of reliable service, users have come to trust Wowza as a dependable solution for all their streaming needs. Whether it's for personal use or professional applications, Wowza continues to deliver a robust and user-friendly platform that caters to a wide range of requirements.

Late and Unsatisfactory Support: Users have expressed their dissatisfaction with the support provided by Wowza Video, stating that replies are often delayed and unsatisfactory. Several reviewers have mentioned experiencing difficulties in getting timely assistance from the support team.

Paid Support for Start-ups: Some users find it discouraging that start-ups on low budgets have to pay for an upgrade to access better support. They believe that start-ups, who typically have more questions and need full support services, should have access to comprehensive support regardless of their membership status.

Charging for Help: There is a sentiment among some users that they shouldn't be charged for learning how to use the software correctly. They feel that asking for help should not come at an additional cost and expect basic guidance without having to pay extra fees.
