It was important for me to be able to use this easily with Zoom and OBS Studio. Both are seamless and easy to use setups while directly streaming from Zoom was an unexpected bonus. A major reason I tried this software was because of the CDN ability. I am beyond thrilled with the ability to upload pre-recorded videos and have them scheduled in advance. Not only that but to do it at this price point, is incredible. Another "bonus" for me was that I am able to host a video on VideoLinq and people can view it from my website, which essentially removes the need to embed YouTube or vimeo videos that include lots of host branding and links. I had been looking for a solution for many months, and to have this in the same place as my scheduled live streams is awesome. > > **Cons**: The UI on the backend isn't the most user-friendly. There are some updates in the pipeline that i'm waiting for. > > I highly recommend that anyone needing a streaming platform jump on this before pricing goes up. ----- ### "To stream(yard) or to Videolinq? No question\!" — 4.0/5 > **Kimberly** | *23 February 2021* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like most what we haven't yet used at the organization and that is the ability to monetize our streams. What we have noticed was the ease with which to publish on Facebook pages and groups\! Also, the UI is FANTASTIC...pictures take the place of words so ANYONE speaking any language can onboard fairly quickly. > > **Cons**: We are beginning to use Instagram and there is no easy link to it. The UI is rather DARK...and not as CLEAN as some of the other streaming offers. I would like for there to be an ease to access the studio...it seems a little convoluted to have to click so many links to get there. (I tried going directly there using the browser and received errors.) > > Overall, Videolinq is solving or is SET to solve our agency concerns. We are in the planning stages of streaming both live and taped materials from all our major brands. It allows for this rather efficiently AND with the ability to have feedback...to see our audience so-to-speak is great. Did I mention this can be a cash-cow. No longer do we have to wait to receive so many likes or views to look to monetize our productions. Also, having the ability to stream to our website also is a boon\! \[Not all people are into social media, preferring simply to connect with us via our website.\] ----- ### "Time saver with best integration within apps" — 3.0/5 > **Shahzad** | *27 November 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software offers favourably customized and configurable plans. I have browsed almost all the features. The most attractive is that it is integrating with the most used social platforms and one can get the stuff published in a single click. Since my business is in a growing phase, I did not yet enjoy the full benefit of using its complete package. I am sure this is the one I am looking for, with such reasonable plans in the market. > > **Cons**: Only the video tutorials are not sufficient, I suggest there should be a complete blog in writing too, to help the users with the best manual guide. The user interface gives an impression that the site is not complete yet. ----- ### "Robust software but cumbersome for those who just want to go live on Facebook" — 5.0/5 > **Angel** | *19 December 2021* | Civic & Social Organisation | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is feature rich. You can go live on LinkedIn and many other platforms. If you have a more complicated media send setup for live-streaming, this software can handle it. > > **Cons**: The robust features come at a costs. It’s not the most user friendly interface and takes way too many clocks to go live on Facebook than softwares like StreamYard and BeLive. ----- ### "Essential Tool for Fast and Reliable Content Distribution" — 5.0/5 > **Owen** | *19 January 2021* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 1. Videolinq makes is easy for us to share lives to YouTube and multiple Facebook pages and groups. 2. It works well with OBS. I'm planning to use it with ATEM mini Pro in the future. 3. It fully supports an RTMP input source and output destination which means you have future proof integration built-in. > > **Cons**: The missing feature is user / team account management. I would have liked to be able to add teams members and only give them access to a specific steaming setup in the media library. It would have been helpful if they had created best practice in the streaming set-ups and configurations. > > I am extremely please with the functionality of the service and the support is prompt. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/261906/videolinq?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/261906/videolinq) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
