- 2 stars: 3 reviews (1%)
- 1 star: 6 reviews (1%)

### Most mentioned pros

- In terms of service and what they provide caster is an all-in-one solution that covers everything I could possibly need their pricing is a little up there but what they offer certainly makes up for it.
- The greatest part is we have multiple volunteers helping with broadcasts and we were looking for the simplest option for less technical individuals...no streaming keys, just a toggle on and off switch.
- We love the three stream feature for different services, and we love sending livestream to Facebook and YouTube at the same time!

### Most mentioned cons

- Some abilities of the platform do not work straightforward but require a workaround and because that workaround is not clear it requires constant alert when you add new team members.
- Changing the login method to use a code sent to email makes it difficult for the technical department to access the dashboard.
- Unable to generate a single free link.

### Functional and competent, but depreciating quality over time.

- Overall rating: 2/5
- Reviewer: Daniel P.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: E-Learning
- Company size: Self-Employed
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2026

Largely it's been neutral. I generally still find it functional for multicasting and customer service has answered all my questions clearly.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 2/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

I used to have a higher opinion of this product for multicasting. It is pretty bare bones, and helpful for my use-case.

#### Cons

They've been removing features, such as the combined multi-casting chat. It's pretty basic, and lacks the kind of external customizability I'd prefer.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I love the simplicity of the program for our church volunteers who run our livestream. They just have to hit “stream” on our equipment.

#### Cons

I wish I didn’t have to change the stream key with different streams. I wish the “waiting for stream” black box was a preview rather than black until livestream starts so you know the video is connected.

#### Reasons for switching to Castr

Needed to be able to stream to two programs at once.

### Castr Is Great for Simplifying the Livestream Workflow

Castr has been great. It feels a little "cheep" or "unrefined" in some areas. I'll get error messages that I shouldn't have gotten which are fixed with a simple page refresh. But for simply streaming, it's a great bang for the buck.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Castr has been incredible for simplifying our workflow. It is invaluable being able to stream to one provider and then let Castr send the stream to our different social channels and websites.

#### Cons

The pre-recorded stream feature in Castr needs a lot of work. It often looks like it's set up correctly but when it comes time for the stream to start, the file simply doesn't play.I also don't like how when you add the chat embed, or the playlist embed it changes the overall window size. Playlist embed should still be 16x9 ratio with the playlist as a popover. Like how YouTube's playlist embed works. This alone has made it so we don't embed VOD folders from Castr.

#### Reasons for choosing Castr

The price was a better fit with our budget.

#### Reasons for switching to Castr

Vimeo became too expensive.

Hi Adam, Thank you for the honest feedback. We are constantly working towards offering more features shortly. Stay Tuned, happy streaming :)

### Excellent Live Streaming Quality and Geo-Blocking with Minor Playback Control Issue

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Dusabemungu Hirwa E.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Sports
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: July 2024
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I have been using the service for one year, and overall, it was impressive. I used it primarily for live streaming cricket games happening in our country. The geo-blocking feature worked perfectly, and the video quality was excellent. The colors and design of their media bars were visually appealing. However, the only issue I encountered was the lack of control for rewinding and fast-forwarding.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5

#### Pros

Pros: Impressive service: Overall, the service was impressive throughout the year. Live streaming quality: The quality of the live streaming was excellent, providing a great viewing experience. Geo-blocking: The geo-blocking feature worked perfectly, ensuring access to the right content. Visual appeal: The colors and design of the media bars were visually appealing and enhanced the user experience.

#### Cons

Playback control: The lack of control for rewinding and fast-forwarding was a notable issue, limiting the ability to navigate through the content easily.

#### Reasons for choosing Castr

not expansive I chose Castr over other alternatives for several reasons: Live Streaming Quality: Castr offers excellent video quality, which was crucial for streaming cricket games in our country. The clarity and smoothness of the streams made it the best choice for live sports broadcasting. Geo-Blocking Feature: The geo-blocking feature in Castr worked perfectly, allowing us to control the distribution of our content geographically. This was a significant advantage for our needs. Visual Appeal: The design and colors of the media bars in Castr are visually appealing, enhancing the overall viewing experience for our audience. Reliability: Over the year I used the service, Castr proved to be reliable with minimal downtime, ensuring that our live streams were consistently available.

### For those of us doing Live events, Castr is an essential fail safe partner

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Daniel H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Professional Training & Coaching
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used monthly for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: January 2020
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The ability to have an uploaded pre-recorded video scheduled to stream live with just 3 mins notice is really useful for failsafe option. Internet gremlins can always get in the way during a live event, so I find this quick scheduling option to be really useful and the main reason I stuck to Castr and not their competition. They also offer 24 hour cloud recording & a mobile app which their competitors don't either. Cloud recording is another really useful failsafe in case your recordings locally didn't happen. Mobile app lets you use your mobile camera to stream which is really useful.

#### Cons

Shame that they only allow 1 uploaded video at a time seems rather stingy when 2 would be really useful and not lose them much business for small time streamers. They don't offer their Embed on website script as part of the lower packages which seems a shame when their competitors do and don't see why that would harm them to offer this in lower packages. Less than 3 mins schedulng would be even better!

#### Reasons for switching to Castr

Restream have a 10 min delay for scheduling videos which for a failsafe is far too much time. They don't offer cloud recording or mobile streaming. Find their product offerings confusing and not competitive. You need 2 different packages for scheduling and live streaming.

#### Vendor response

Hey Daniel, Thank you for your valuable time and wonderful feedback, just wanted to let you know that we will soon be out with a new module and UI. It would have the answer to all your problems :)

We needed a solution to stream to YouTube and Facebook at the same time. We looked at a number of companies, but I came across Castr in a banner ad, and thought we had nothing to lose for the cost. It turned out being so much better than we thought it would be, and at a FRACTION of competitors. If you are a church that wishes to multistream to a number of different places, don't pass up Castr.

In my day-to-day work, I need to send live video feeds to several social media platforms simultaneously (more than 3 in some cases). With Castr I could do so in a very intuitive and reliable way.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

With Castr was very easy to configure the destinations of the streaming. They have a lot of social media services preloaded to log in, or just use them with the streaming key

#### Cons

I want to use the SRT source connection, but in my trials, it doesn't work reliably (there were glitches in the video), so I have to use the RTMP protocol, despite the increase in latency.

#### Reasons for choosing Castr

In this case, Castr was a lot cheaper and offer the same tools as the competitors

#### Reasons for switching to Castr

I made the switch because Castr was a little beat cheaper and offer the same tools, and even more flexible configuration options

### My experience with Castr the past 6 months.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Douglas H.

- Industry: Food & Beverages
- Company size: 501-1000 employees

I started a podcast about 10 months ago and before I did them live I would just record them and upload the video. Its hard to make it as any type of streamer these days, especially when you're new and have 0 viewers and get put at the bottom of the bunch. I wanted to reach as many people as possible, in the easiest way. I spent a lot of time watching videos on how to simulcast and whats the best soft ware to use. Most came with $50 + a month bill. Since I'm not currently making any money from producing content the price matters. Then I found caster. It had everything I was looking for, unlimited stream hours, stream on multiple platforms, (I personally stream on Twitch, Mixer, Youtube & Dlive). It made my life incredibly easier. In the first day I connected all my accounts and clicked the go live button, boom, that easy; and its only $15 a month. That's cheaper than my bar tab. I would recommend Castr's simulcast package to ANYONE who is just starting. Sometimes I get a few followers on mixer, then the next day its youtube or maybe twitch. I'm reaching as many people as I can at once and instead of just building up my stream following on one platform, I'm doing it on 4 at once. I could do even more if I wanted to. Overall Castr can't be beat for its simulcast service and price, I have had castr for over 6 months now and don't plan on canceling anytime soon.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

-GREAT PRICE, way cheaper than most simulcast or re-stream services -Unlimited Stream hours -Direct download after stream is over -SUPER User friendly, linked my accounts and started streaming day one. -Integrated chat system is a huge plus

#### Cons

Over the past 6 months since I've been using it there has been a few hiccups. Some times when I start streaming, it will say my account is linked and connected but it wont be streaming on the platform. Example: I stream on youtube, twitch, mixer and Dlive. On the home screen it says my mixer account is connected and live, but when I visit my page on mixer it says I'm offline. I then have to try deleting and reconnecting my account to Castr or resetting my stream key, and even then it does not always work. I have only had this problem mainly with Mixer (youtube and twitch every now and then). That being said I'm not sure if this is a problem on Castr's end or Mixers. I have chatted with a worker about this issue and alls he had me do was the same steps I listed above. Deleted, re-link, try again. This option does not always work. Then the next day everything will magically work again. This is a very minor problem but can grow to be very irritating. Some other small cons I've noticed. The integrated chat seems to only link Youtube, Mixer and Twitch. Any smaller platforms don't detected. I use OBSLabs to live stream, and some of the apps don't work as they should. For example the viewer count extension where it shows the amount of viewers per platform only shows my viewers on twitch. Not the other 3 platforms I'am streaming on. Again, I'm not sure if that is a problem on OBSlabs end or Castr's.

#### Vendor response

Hey Douglas, Happy to read such wonderful feedback from you, sorry to hear about the small hiccups, I will take personal attention to investigate this matter and resolve it asap if any found. Happy Streaming :)

Over the years, Castr has never given me any doubt that it is a platform I can trust for multistreaming.Often companies of this caliber overlook the issue of customer support, yet one of Castr's strengths is exactly that. Any problem you have can be resolved in a matter of minutes via live chat.Furthermore, the platform delivers exactly what it promises to do and at a very competitive price.

#### Pros

Once I started livestreaming client events, I quickly ran into the problem of multistreaming. Castr was one of the first platforms I tried, and I ended up sticking with it. The ease of use, customer support, and stability of the platform were the main reasons I kept using it.When I need to multistream, I know I can count on Castr to have everything ready in a matter of minutes.

#### Cons

Honestly, I have yet to encounter a problem that customer support has not been able to resolve. That being said, I have had to deal with customer support a few times due to bugs in the platform, however, overall, every problem I have had has been resolved and the team has always been very helpful.

Hi Bruno, Thank you for the honest feedback. We are constantly working towards offering more features shortly. Stay Tuned, happy streaming :)
