Apart from a faultless service, the staff are always eager to answer any questions and help in anyway they can. Fast response times and an understanding attitude. > > **Cons**: The billing and data allowance information and email alerts are very unclear. I don't know if that is intentional or not but it's the feeling that I get. > > In terms of service and what they provide caster is an all-in-one solution that covers everything I could possibly need their pricing is a little up there but what they offer certainly makes up for it. It's the best option out there for your live streaming needs I couldn't think of going to another platform. ----- ### "great service" — 5.0/5 > **allan** | *24 December 2025* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: biggest pro is cost, way more affordable than the previous service i used. very important part of running a small business > > **Cons**: having to save and make a new link to view a live stream as soon as it is finished, would be good it stayed live for at least a few hours > > the best move I have made since starting my live stream business 5 years ago. easy to set up and share links with clients ----- ### "Subscription Fees ended it all" — 3.0/5 > **Emilio The SARGE** | *25 August 2025* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was very easy to work with and the customer service was the best. From Pay Per View to regular live streaming > > **Cons**: The price I was paying was very affordable until the starter package went away and the price went up. > > I would’ve given Castr 5 stars. But the price change is what ended my subscription. For that reason I am now using Restream ----- ### "A great streaming and distribution platform, with a great team behind it" — 5.0/5 > **Andreas** | *10 January 2026* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Numerous features, reliable 24/7 secure operation, quick and effective support whenever an issue arises. > > **Cons**: Some abilities of the platform do not work straightforward but require a workaround and because that workaround is not clear it requires constant alert when you add new team members. > > Great platform, offering reliable 24/7 operation which has been necessary for our broadcast distribution requirements across the globe. The team behind Castr is very responsive, offering quick support and solutions whenever there is a need. Numerous features in operation, while new ones are being added makes this platform a necessary addition in every broadcast and streaming operation. ----- ### "Everyone should have a CASTR account." — 5.0/5 > **Eduardo** | *19 December 2025* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most is the ability to send a signal and have it relayed to other servers, as well as its ease of use. > > **Cons**: I believe there could be some improvement in receiving a signal via HLS or even HEVC and successfully sending it to YouTube. Even today, the quality of a Blackmagic web presenter is incredibly superior. > > Always very well attended to, and the staff are always online. There are rarely any problems.
