The best Multistream Service
I'm happy with Restream, with my 2 years using stream, I only experience one issue with them. The issue was, I have a good internet connection, but it seems my ISP connection and Restream having an issue. Support was able to help me by giving me access to the beta feature of Stream Applifier which helps resolve the issue. So all in all, I have a great experience with Restream, I just wish they be more flexible in providing add-on features for a non-profit that need failsafe stream backup without subscribing to their $299/mo package.
PROSRestream is a feature pack multistream service out there. It is also the easiest UI/UX to understand. Even if it's your first time accessing Restream, you'll immediately be able to set up your account. What I love the most is the unified chat integration and the bot that comes with it. You can live stream on YouTube and Facebook and see all the chat's in one place. The bot helps sends out a series of chats at a predetermined time. For example, you can setup that when you type !Subs, the bot will chat, "Don't forget to subscribe" and have it send every 30mins. Stream recording is a bonus as well, it lets me download past live stream episodes for archiving purposes.
CONSWhat I don't like about Restream is, even if you paid $19/mo they will put a "Powered by Restream.io" on your live stream description/caption. Streaming for 3 concurrent channels will also force you to upgrade at $49/month which is a bit expensive.
Reason for choosing Restream
UI is confusing and Restream has more features compared to Castr.io

My Restream Review after 1 year
Overall, my experience has been great. I multistream to Twitch, Facebook, and Youtube. Unfortunately, Instagram is not available to stream from any computer-based program due to Meta policies, and they cannot do anything regarding that. But so far, so good. The main reason I use it is the integration with Ecamm, which is my main streaming software, the video quality, and the cloud recording is very useful to later take clips to publish
PROSThe most important of all features is the Ecamm Live integration. Being able to read comments from different platforms/social media from the same chatbox. Also, the video quality that Restream provides is the best with barely any delay. When they dropped the Restream branding in the basic standard tier, it was a no brainer about what multistream software to use, especially the discount for Ecamm users under the Ecamm Perks program
CONSRestream needs to incorporate an HTML5 embedded player /chatbox. Many of us would be very benefited by this, especially the ones that would like to use our own website and private subcriptions. FYI: Streamyard already offers an embedded player
Reason for choosing Restream
The video and streaming quality, and the overall chat integration with Ecamm
Reasons for switching to Restream
I never felt comfortable with the Streamyard graphics and video quality. Overall don't feel comfortable with browser-based streaming platforms

Restream is alright but falling behind
Restream.io worked as advertised 99% of time. However, for what it offered, the price was just worth the value of continuing with their service.
PROSEasy to get up and started, offering stability to maintain livestreaming onto multiple platforms.
CONSThe cost are ridiculously higher to use in comparison to its competitors.
Reason for choosing Restream
Castr offered a better value with additional services included unlike Restream, which is at a higher cost with fewer options.
Reasons for switching to Restream
It's an incredibly affordable option compared to Restream. In addition, it's no extra cost to run two RTMP Pull links. On Restream, to run just one RTMP Pull link is an additional cost. Additionally, Castr has servers located in my city, unlike Restream, making latency significantly lower.

Always New There Was Another Way
Restream has provided an excellent experience for our team.
PROSRestream made our challenges possible by providing simple instructions and many options to get our broadcast out to different platforms. Restream is also an affordable product.
CONSWe have not found anything noticeable about this product that we did not like.
