Virtual event live streaming of webinars Customer engagement

Livestream Studio has many sophisticated controls that allow me to stream a very polished video weekly to our many subscribers. I take full advantage of the three GFX channels during our Masses.

Livestream is a computer resource hog (not that I'm surprised). I have yet to find a PC—no matter how much RAM memory it contains and no matter how fast a processor. After trying multiple machines, I finally settled on a 2nd generation MacBook Pro, which uses only 10% of the processing memory instead of 95% on a PC. I would also love to have twice as many GFX channels.

Livestream is solving not so much a "business" problem as a pastoral and evangelistic problem for us. As an Anglo-Catholic Episcopal Church, we are a relatively rare beast in our denomination. Yet through Livestream, we are able to have an outreach ministry that is truly international. Our Denver, Colorado, parish has a large following in Nigeria (for some unfathomable reason), and we have regular viewers in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. In addition, we also have occasional viewers in Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Moreover, local viewers have begun attending in person. Our live streams allow viewers to get a "taste" of our liturgy before deciding to join us in person.

Minimalistic live TV production software value as a crazy low cost. We received the app free when we bought a 3rd MEVO camera in 2019. MEVO was bought by Livestream. Livestream was bought by Vimeo. Logitech just bought the MEVO camera hardware brand.

Well, if you have an issue, it is difficult to find user generated answers in a forum because "Livestream Studio" is the most generic name and usually the subtitle to any competitor brand "[Brand Name here] livestreaming studio app"

We have an error message and not any searchable solution avenues. For example, we are getting UNKNOWN ERROR and can't use the app. Now, we we have to spend a lot of time figuring out why.

Vimeo Livestream has the ability to create reoccurring livestream events or create single events. They can be set up far in advance so they can be marketed the proper way. The process is very easy and streamlined.

We haven't had any problems setting up or broadcasting live stream events. The quality has been great and there weren't any problems that I know of. Viewer feedback was very positive.

Vimeo Livestream is a feature of the subscription we already are paying for with Vimeo so it has been a great addition to our marketing efforts. We were previously using Facebook Live and several others, but this is much better!

This gives us a one-stop shop for storing videos and going live when we have weekly services. The ease of use of the system for live streaming works well for our volunteers, and the fact that we can use our Wirecast software to kickstart the Livestream is a plus for us.

I wish there was a better functioinality for the chat during the livestream. We like the ability to communicate one on one with some people whom are watching and we are unable to currently do that but that may be user error and just no fully understanding the functions.

Like stated earlier this gives us a place to store and go live. With previous services we were not able to keep all of our services saved to embed into our website as we wanted. With this we are able to save all services and embed them straight into our site.

Incredibly user-friendly interface. Connectivity with other platforms. Easy to implement for a a church or group of any size.

Customer support has been a bit challenging to deal with at times. Have had occasional issues with streams losing connectivity. Generally an extremely positive experience overall though.

Livestream has allowed our church to not only have a easily accessible database of past services, but to broaden our outreach to get our message out to the world!

We stream 2 1-hour events a week, and the Livestream basic account meets all our needs. Livestream's level of subscription fits our current needs. We were nervous about the acquisition by Vimeo but will stay with Livestream for the time being.

It is not possible to move a post if it was categorized incorrectly at first. The inability to edit a post in this way is particularly troubling (requires you to get it right the first time, and who does that 100% of the time?!)

Our people are getting our content when before they simply had to miss out on the experience. We find our clients are more informed because they have access to Livestream.

Livestream is extremely user friendly on a personal level but also on a business lever. For a low cost you can have a professional quality livestream that is truly unmatched. It is intuitive, cost efficient, and professional. I cannot speak highly enough about Livestream as a videographer. I have integrated livestream into multiple churches, used it at wedding and at live concert events without any issues whatsoever.

I wish the video quality was higher for the video download options. While the actual stream is high quality, you should be able to download an HD version of the video after you have filmed. This would alleviate the need for me to purchase other software, which I think is a detriment to Livestream.

Working for a church, being able to livestream our services has allowed us to review and critique our Sunday morning and our quality has almost doubled. Having livestream has also allowed us to reach more people, introduce people to the church, and provide a way for the congregation to stay connect while they are away.

Vimeo Kept Studio as a "preferred" video streaming tool, which still allows significant to achieve professional production for live streaming while remaining highly reliable. Great bonus: simulcast to other destinations than just Vimeo.

Studio remains really useful, but no significant upgrades have been deployed yet. The way remote guests are displayed and handled is not really appealing for viewers. Social media formats compatibilities might boost this switcher.

Remote guests is definetly a feature we've used to solve many requirements, but since pandemic boosted web conferencing, more zoom alike features could help a lot.

Vimeo is already one of the best video platforms, so by having the live stream capabilities I found that my team can live stream our content just as easy as you can upload you can stream. I found that people really love interacting with us

Live stream doesn't get as many views as our regular videos do, but if we want the interaction we will stream live!

I found that it's hard for our audience to stream on their phones through a web browser or non app software. It is best with a laptop. It helps with connecting to our audience and gauging their real reaction to our content! We have found a new segment of the audience loves live streams and prefers that sort of content!

I like the ease of use. It takes only a few minutes to set up your account, and start broadcasting.

I feel that the way broadcasts are searched for could be improved so that people could more easily access content that they would be interested in viewing.

I feel that it helps me to connect with authors and readers. It helps me to deliver content in a quick way.

How your company can use livestream for conferences and meetings that you can't attend, or want to appear on.

for those who don't have an account that maybe contractors, it maybe a little hard to access the livestream meetings if you're not around a strong internet connection

mobility and accessibility for our teams

Livestream is incredibly easy to use and helps you display great livestream quality at a reasonable price.

In the past, we have had Livestream's servers fail during our events. There was a month or so last year where it was happening sporadically and we almost started looking into other providers. However, they reached out to us and let us know they were working hard on updating their servers and since then we haven't had any issues.

We first started creating a livestream video setup about 2 years ago. Once having the necessary equipment in place, we started checking out providers on a trial basis. After testing multiple providers out, Livestream worked with our current setup seamlessly.

I like how easy it is to set up and host a live stream from this platform. It integrates seamlessly with RTMP applications such as OBS. The chat and interactivity features make it easy to include community participation.

There are fewer options to adjust the delivery of your stream to viewers than other platforms, such as YouTube. I would have liked to see an option to add a stream delay, so that feed to viewers would be delayed by 30 or 60 seconds for a smooth experience with timing things like real-time captions.

We have several yearly events that are live-streamed to remote audiences. Vimeo allows us to do that with fewer options to "discover" unrelated content, such as the suggested videos column on YouTube.
