Highly Recommend
I highly recommend that anyone needing a streaming platform jump on this before pricing goes up.
PROSSetup was super easy and most of the work was automatically done inside of Videolinq, which is way better than others that I have tried that require a manual setup. It was important for me to be able to use this easily with Zoom and OBS Studio. Both are seamless and easy to use setups while directly streaming from Zoom was an unexpected bonus. A major reason I tried this software was because of the CDN ability. I am beyond thrilled with the ability to upload pre-recorded videos and have them scheduled in advance. Not only that but to do it at this price point, is incredible. Another "bonus" for me was that I am able to host a video on VideoLinq and people can view it from my website, which essentially removes the need to embed YouTube or vimeo videos that include lots of host branding and links. I had been looking for a solution for many months, and to have this in the same place as my scheduled live streams is awesome.
CONSThe UI on the backend isn't the most user-friendly. There are some updates in the pipeline that i'm waiting for.
Reason for choosing Videolinq
The video quality and dropping of streams in BeLive wasn't worth it. Also the chat did not fit my branding.
Reasons for switching to Videolinq
Restream wasn't enough for me and especially at their price point.

To stream(yard) or to Videolinq? No question!
Overall, Videolinq is solving or is SET to solve our agency concerns. We are in the planning stages of streaming both live and taped materials from all our major brands. It allows for this rather efficiently AND with the ability to have feedback...to see our audience so-to-speak is great. Did I mention this can be a cash-cow. No longer do we have to wait to receive so many likes or views to look to monetize our productions. Also, having the ability to stream to our website also is a boon! [Not all people are into social media, preferring simply to connect with us via our website.]
PROSI like most what we haven't yet used at the organization and that is the ability to monetize our streams. What we have noticed was the ease with which to publish on Facebook pages and groups! Also, the UI is FANTASTIC...pictures take the place of words so ANYONE speaking any language can onboard fairly quickly.
CONSWe are beginning to use Instagram and there is no easy link to it. The UI is rather DARK...and not as CLEAN as some of the other streaming offers. I would like for there to be an ease to access the studio...it seems a little convoluted to have to click so many links to get there. (I tried going directly there using the browser and received errors.)
Reason for choosing Videolinq
Videolinq had a special promotion AND it showed promise...the ability to monetize our streams, mostly. Nothwithstanding that sometimes apps that come later, tend to have a better grasp on what is lacking from its competitors and provided EXACTLY what the market is looking for... Thanks Videolinq!
Reasons for switching to Videolinq
I was using the free version, and thought it did things I liked, it did not provide the multichannel streaming we needed to maximize our momentum for book sales.

Not what I was looking for
I start use it with great expectation but after some month I prefer pass to another tool
PROSIs great that you can go live on more than one platform
CONSIs complicated to use if I compare it to other similar tools
Reason for choosing Videolinq
It was free and I found a lot of tutorial

I find it more customizable and easier to use

Quick Take on Videolinq: A Streamer's New Best Friend
I'm really into how Videolinq lets you hit multiple social platforms with your live streams all at once. It's like having a magic button that blasts your content everywhere, and the dashboard is a breeze to use. Adding captions and cool graphics? Big plus.
CONSBut, heads up, it's not the cheapest option out there, and if you're new to streaming, there's a bit of a learning curve to tackle. Worth it if you're serious about reaching a big audience, but might give pause to hobbyists or budget-conscious folks.

Great alternative, but still in an early stage
Besides the annoying feedback messages on the control interface, I really live Videolinq don't have plans to look somewhere else. They are investing on their platform and adding new stuff all the time.
PROSThe price is great. It has many options, so in the ratio of money/value, it's one of the best solutions available today. If you're tech savvy or don't mind reading instructions and/or testing until things works, Videolinq is a great solution for multi broadcasting to YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn and many other online platforms.
CONSA few months ago, they started adding messages to the control panel, where they constantly ask for your feedback. This messages popup at the worst times, e.g., when you are on the middle of a live streaming, and you don't need any distractions. Plus, they are not configured on a smart way, so that if you have already seen it or answer it, it won't show up again.
Reasons for switching to Videolinq
Pricing. Restream is easier to use and setup, but they are pricier. Videolinq requieres more work to setup and doesn't have as much metrics, but this was not a big issue for me.

Essential Tool for Fast and Reliable Content Distribution
I am extremely please with the functionality of the service and the support is prompt.
PROS1. Videolinq makes is easy for us to share lives to YouTube and multiple Facebook pages and groups. 2. It works well with OBS. I'm planning to use it with ATEM mini Pro in the future. 3. It fully supports an RTMP input source and output destination which means you have future proof integration built-in.
CONSThe missing feature is user / team account management. I would have liked to be able to add teams members and only give them access to a specific steaming setup in the media library. It would have been helpful if they had created best practice in the streaming set-ups and configurations.
Reason for choosing Videolinq
I choose Videolinq based on value for the feature and functionality I needed compared to the competition.

Robust software but cumbersome for those who just want to go live on Facebook
It is feature rich. You can go live on LinkedIn and many other platforms. If you have a more complicated media send setup for live-streaming, this software can handle it.
CONSThe robust features come at a costs. It’s not the most user friendly interface and takes way too many clocks to go live on Facebook than softwares like StreamYard and BeLive.
Reasons for switching to Videolinq
I wanted to stream to more channels at one time.
Vendor Response
Angel, thank you for your review. You posted the review after using a Videolinq trial account. Our trial accounts have time limit on live streams, and that might be the buffering you experienced. You can read the positive reviews we get from paid customers. Reach to us if you would like to use a paid account for 1-week at no cost.

Great Tool for Video Distributions
I like the ease of setting things up once and it will work with the schedule feature.
PROSWhen I look at the service provided by Videolinq, the reliability of sending just one rtmp source to it and it distributes out up to 25 places is incredible.
CONSI was not able to post my live feed to my FB page. Although, I was able to post a live feed to my own personal wall. A work around is set a manual rtmp feed.
Reason for choosing Videolinq
I chose it because the value and reliability of Videolinq are superb.

Best platform for Streaming
In conclusion, the platform offers a comprehensive suite of tools that streamline the process of live video streaming. I was impressed by the platform’s automatic closed captioning feature, multi-channel streaming, videolinq player and stream protection, as well as monetization options.Whether you’re a content creator, business owner, or organisation looking to deliver premium live video experiences Videolinq offers a reliable and feature-packed streaming solution that’s worth exploring.
PROSVideolink's automatic subtitle service is a game-changer. It delivers captions in real-time with unbeatable accuracy thanks to the platform's advanced speech recognition technology. Multithreading to Social Networks: I love the ability to reach a larger audience with Videolink's multiithreading features. Video Player: Videolink Player offers a smooth and engaging viewing experience. The player customization options let you customize it with your logo and colors to make it your own. Flow Protection: Stream protection is a priority for all video producers and businesses, and Videolink takes it very seriously. They have strong security measures like password protected broadcasting, IP restrictions, etc. Monetizing Live Streams and Videos: It's never been easier to monetize a live stream or video. Videolink offers multiple monetization options such as Ad insertion, Pay-Per-View, and Subscription.
CONSOccasionally, it may experience performance problems with live streaming like buffering or loss of quality. However, these are isolated cases and should be seen as a major problem as opposed to its advantages.

Videolinq works for me and my staff
We have been searching and searching for a product like Videolinq. When I discovered the product, I didn't even realize how good it was until I put it through its paces. Now, I could not do without it.
PROSLive streaming video from a desktop and connecting it to local media is usually hard. But with Videolinq, it is so easy. But it also shines in mobile livestreaming! We run a news organization and depend on reporters from the field. Videolinq delivers. When I found Videolinq, I did not quite realize how good it was until I started using it. Our staff likes it, and, most importantly, it is easy to use. Videolinq also offers high quality video, and I can't wait to use the new chat feature that is coming soon.
CONSVideolinq is an enterprise level product, and the website itself looks like it is for business use. It could use a bit of a makeover. On the other hand, the simplicity of the page makes it easy to use. And ease of use is a great selling point for the app/.
Reasons for switching to Videolinq
I like Restream but it does not work well for mobile streaming. Videolinq works for both desktop and mobile.

I brought similar software where went live on Facebook & YouTube. VIDEOLINQ is a promising App. On m
I give full 5 tacos because the platform promises to give me all that I need, and I am confident that in the future there will be more improvements and above tech issues ironed out.
PROSOn my first impression - setting up a livestream is very easy, Just 3 steps in the process. What I liked was its Reach of 25 outputs on every plan, Simple 3 step process. I have 2 brands and launch a lot of videos every alternative day LIVE and this VIDEOLINQ does a great service by streaming LIVE in more places.
CONSWhat I don’t like is their confusing DASHBOARD is a little confusing where one needs to enter URL for their account & billing information & another for video info. Going back & forth is little irritating prefer all in 1 place. Also, some terminologies were difficult to understand but nothing hard where one can search online... Would be great if the meaning were explaining by hovering over them, otherwise a great Video LIVE App.

Awesome solution for multistreaming
I really enjoy using Videolinq because it allows me to stream to multiple social media platforms, which has helped me to reach a wider audience and in turn, achieve greater revenue earnings. One of the features that I found very powerful is the option to embed a video on any website by using a dedicated video player. You also have the option to create multiple players with their own layouts and styles, which I found to be very useful also. There is also a closed captioning service that has been reliable.
CONSIt takes some time to understand and learn how to use the software, as it may seem a bit complex, but once you play around and get some experience, everything works fantastic.

A great tool to increase your visibility in your streaming!
When the pandemic started, everything changed and something that impacted me a lot was not being able to give talks in my support group. But looking for a way to reach all members of the support group, I decided to change everything to Online. Do lives and live talks. When I saw the VideoLinq promotion on Appsumo, I decided to try it because it helped me solve a problem I had. It worked for me so I decided to buy two more codes. Excellent service!
CONSI would like to see the following. Player CDN is not a lifetime deal. Embeddable chat. Video on Full HD At the beginning it is a bit confusing since they have basically divided the service website and the account management website into two websites. And it is somewhat confusing not knowing which websites one is on.

Live Stream? Get Videolinq!
Overall, the billing and analytics dashboard is easy to use and understand how my streams perform. The software doesn't pretend to be anything than what it is (multi-stream distribution for live and recorded content) and it does it really well.
PROSThe ease of setting up and scheduling livestreams across multiple platforms is super simple. The software is both reliable and easy to use. Setting up scheduled pre-recorded 'livestreams' helps distributing evergreen content to my audience.
CONSThe software is still evolving, as of this review, the ability to change the password on the media platform is not available... this is a peculiar choice for design, and really should be rectified.

Best video switcher / distributor
Videolinq enables content providers to do fully manage their videos sources. Different sources can be assigned to a combination different destinations etc. Moreover - Videolinq also provides a dedicated video player to embed the video directly on any web interface. This feature is a game changer especially compared to other online video switching providers.
CONSI would like to see a better integration of their control panel (back end) together with the account management / billing / support portal. It shall be best if all will be available from the same interface.
