Nothing has been too much to ask, and everything requested has been delivered efficiently.” > > **Cons**: Not the least worrying but would be good to the ability to choose on Castr what languages needs to be sent out on the final stream. But then again, its been requested and the team are looking into it. More Multiviews > > I’ve been using Castr for awhile now, and it has always been my go-to platform — especially when clients require a multi-language player, pay-per-view options, customization, and the dedicated one-on-one support from \[sensitive content hidden\], and their team.” ----- ### "Reliable and Cost Effective Live Streaming Platform" — 5.0/5 > **Kristjan** | *18 June 2026* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Castr is how easy and fast it is to manage multiple live streams and delivery destinations from 1 platform. It saves us a lot of time, reduces operational costs, and gives us the flexibility we need for live sports and time sensitive events. The platform is reliable, simple to use, and their support team is responsive whenever assistance is required. > > **Cons**: The main area for improvement is that some advanced settings and troubleshooting information could be clearer. When a stream has an issue, more detailed error messages and deeper real time diagnostics would help identify the cause faster. The platform is generally reliable, but stronger monitoring and reporting tools would make it even better for professional broadcast operations. Also we would need Multi viewer with more windowses and option to share MV to a client > > Our overall experience with Castr has been very positive. The platform is easy to use, flexible, and reliable for managing live streams and distributing content to multiple destinations. It has helped us simplify our workflow, save time, and reduce operational costs. The support team has also been responsive and helpful whenever we needed assistance. Overall, Castr provides good value and is a strong solution for professional live streaming. ----- ### "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 ----- ### "It's affordable and it works." — 5.0/5 > **Taylor** | *9 May 2026* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Castr is affordable, and it does what it's supposed to do well and without problems. After a year of weekly use, I haven't had a single problem with Castr. I wish I could say the same for the other tools I use. > > **Cons**: The only thing I would change is that it would be helpful if Castr could set the stream title and metadata to update the date automatically. I have to log in each week type the new date, which isn't hard. But if this could be automated, it would be completely "set it and forget it," one less detail to have to remember. > > Our church uses Castr in conjunction with ProPresenter in order to livestream our weekly services to multiple platforms. It's an affordable solution that works reliably every week without fail. ----- ### "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. ----- Page: 1 / 19\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/187026/castr?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/187026/castr) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
