Simple, well managed podcast manager

Getting our message out to the online world with ease. I am personally not a fan of subscription services because they cost a lot in the long run, but the advantage is that Buzzsprout maintains all historical podcasts within the price of the monthly fee.

PROS

The simplicity of getting a weekly podcast uploaded, out to our website, to our podcast (for iTunes), and available for download by just uploading to their Buzzsprout site.

Buzzsprout is so easy to use

Uploading your own Podcasts.

PROS

You can easily upload media for others to listen to. Great Podcast feature. You can customize your own site as well, so when others stop by they know what they are listening to.

CONS

Buzzsprout is a little on the expensive side if you need to upload large files or more than a few things at a time. The free plan only has a 90 limit before it deletes it.

I like this software

PROS

It is a good platform, very easy to use and friendly interface, I really liked the integrations that you have with other platforms such as iTunes.

CONS

The truth, I have no against the platform, the truth in cost benefit but it seems that it is a software that adapts very well.

Great software for hosting your podcast

Buzzsprout has hosted my podcast, almost 200 episodes, for several years.

PROS

Buzzsprout is easy to use. I'm not the most technical person but I've done close to 200 podcasts and Buzzsprout has hosted them all. The price is pretty good as well!

CONS

Sometimes it takes several tries before my file uploads. Other times it works with the first try. The time for the file to upload varies as well.

Buzzsprout has provided exactly what need: an easy, effective site to host podcasts.

The main benefit of Buzzsprout is that it does what I expect it to and doesn't cause me any headaches or glitches. Runs perfectly.

PROS

It is so easy to upload, link and archive a podcast. It simply works and the task can easily be delegated to someone who hasn't even used the software before.

CONS

If I upload a podcast, without including the image, I can still add an image but the embed will always NOT show the image (unless the link is directly to the page). I've learned the hard way, you basically can't edit once it's uploaded, at least not do so and have the changes show in the preview.
