I found Zencastr when I launched my podcast, it has been the best solution to record my episodes with guests. Been using it for almost two years and when I needed support (a couple of times) their team replied so quickly. Zencastr recently launched their own hosting, this will make the process of creating ans sharing content even easier.
Easy to use Inviting guest with a click Internal chat Video recording for free Save your files directly on your cloud
I wish the platform could work on mobile but I understand this may be a technical challenge.

It's a very likely tool for everyone involved in remote education, podcasting and/lacks of expensive recording gear or technical resources.
No installation required. It's a very clear workflow for the podcast makers. Multitrack recording of participants.
Some small computer cameras tend to be seen a little blurry or slow movement. Not possible to change the audio source device once the recording has started.

Good for a long time but then heavily disappointing
Okay recording platform with some bugs in the past but pretty dtable
After a year's break, I logged into my account and was shown a one-week trial. I thought, "Oh, okay, that's a nice way to get back into it." The premium subscription was granted as soon as I clicked on the button. There was no mention of any direct payment. Later, I was shocked to find that they had deducted the entire year's worth of subscription from my bank account. I contacted customer support,...

I've used it for a year to create podcasts. It was not my choice. It is the system used by my podcasting platform
interface is fairly simple to understand once you are recording/
support is AWFUL. you cannot speak to a person. so if an issue comes up you have to wait for a written response. this takes many hours. by that time you are doing something else, so it can take days to resolve. of course it's complicated to explain tech issues precisely with written messages, so an issue that could be resolved in a 5 minute call can take days or may never be fully resolved.

What's not to like about Zencastr??? It has a clean and intuitive interface, it makes inviting people to join you for a remote recording as easy as copying, pasting and sharing a link, and it makes sure that none of your recordings get lost thanks to its automated back-up integration with the likes of Google Drive and Dropbox. The automated post production is huge, especially if you wouldn't like to end up down the audio editing rabbit hole, and the soundboard is solid enough to let you do the majority of the editing your podcast content is probably going to need. Being able to add footnotes and comments is a nice plus, and the video recording side of things can really transform Zencastr into the ultimate platform to record your audio and video content remotely.
I have to be honest, it's really difficult to find something I don't like about Zencastr. I have other of some people having had some small issues depending on the web browser they were using but that hasn't been the case for me. Perhaps, having a mobile app to be able to do even just some of the things (e.g. like managing and sharing files) could be handy
