Pros

“It is a powerful and reliable tool for both recording and live streaming, offering high-quality output and extensive customization options. While the initial setup can be a bit complex, once configured properly, it runs smoothly and provides professional-level results.”

Don M.

Asst. Manager

“I love that it's easy to integrate the platforms I'm going to use to stream, it's easy to update stream information (stream information dock), it's really easy to record and use it as a studio software for podcasting, it seems pretty safe when it comes to security, it's pretty quick and reliable and allows me to add as many features to my scenes as I see fit.”

Yoshio L.

Independant streamer

“What I absolutely love about OBS Studio is that it is a open-source software which is completely FREE to use. And, the features and services it offers, I bet it can beat any other premium paid softwares in the market.”

“It's not as intuitive and I don't remember it having like a tutorial run through of the program.”

“OBS pushes out extremely frequent updates. While this may seem helpful, it's annoying to have to constantly update the software.”
