Considered Both Products	Flutin Live Verified User Anonymous Chose Flutin Live Flutin Live is more robust and offers more platforms to livestream than BeLive. beLive only offers YouTube and Facebook and has never expanded. There are far more platforms today and Flutin is trying to keep up with the times, which I really appreciate. I also like the ability … Incentivized Helpful?	OBS Studio Mantra Manan Saraswat Product Manager Chose OBS Studio Only one reason which is that OBS studio is free and open source and we had team members capable of using it effectively. Other softwares have great prebuilt features which make it super easy to go live for small streams and individual streamers. Incentivized Helpful? HL Hayden LeMaster Owner/Operator Chose OBS Studio I've tried both Meld and Bandicam in the past. But OBS seems like the best to me. I've been using OBS for a few years now, it's nice that it's free :) not opposed to paying for good software, but OBS seems to be the best of the bunch and it's free, so I've stuck with it … Incentivized Helpful? LS Louis Schietekat Founder and Tutor Chose OBS Studio I've used Zoom to capture my screen on video. Although the tool is obviously not primarily built to fulfill that function. To capture basic tasks on video, zoom could do the trick but as soon as it gets a bit complex or lengthy, or you need to use multiple video inputs, I would … Incentivized Helpful? Bobby Matheson Owner/Operator Chose OBS Studio OBS is far more customizable and user-friendly than any other broadcasting software I have found. It keeps things simple while allowing you to customize your layout exactly how you want it - there are more user-friendly options, but none with the customizability of OBS. I would … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose OBS Studio I have also used TinyTake by Mango Apps and I prefer OBS studio because the video quality results are better and OBS allows you to record an unlimited length of the video. OBS also lets you record an entire screen instead of manually having to draw your parameters, which can … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose OBS Studio I first was recommended beta version of mmhmm but it was not available for Windows OS. I tried it when it became available but it was too late for me to switch and I stayed with OBS. OBS did everything I needed and it is free Incentivized Helpful? MD Rafsanjani Rahi CEO Chose OBS Studio I have never use anything like OBS Studio. This is very easy to use. I just saw some reviews online and downloaded OBS Studio. This is free for download, easy to run, no virus and no watermark.OBS Studio is a great programme for advanced users and there are no time limits. Incentivized Helpful? Joshua Welsh Assistant Professor Chose OBS Studio OBS is the only robust screen capture with a stable graphical user interface that works on Linux (that I could find). That's why I originally chose it. Since the program is cross-platform, I have been able to keep using it. I could switch back to Panopto, now that I am on … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose OBS Studio We checked out a lot of alternatives, which were simply too expensive for us when we are just in the startup stage of livestreaming. Incentivized Helpful? Charles Beck Vice President, Sales Chose OBS Studio The fact that it's free is helpful and it is so unique with the level of technology it provides for such a low cost that it is worth trying. Now that we use it every day, why know that there is a paid professional version that offers even more features. I didn't do a hard … Incentivized Helpful? Steven Shulmister Co-Founder \| Head of Research \| VP, Operations Chose OBS Studio Webex has its uses, particularly when meeting viewers need to participate, but we always use OBS Studio when they don't need to interact (just view). Incentivized Helpful? Seth Paine Web & Media Developer Chose OBS Studio OBS takes a lot more work to get started with than Google Hangouts, but you get a much more high quality output from it. It even works better with YouTube than Hangout, which is odd since it is also owned by Google. You can not set a poser image on a YouTube live stream when … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Flutin Live	OBS Studio
Likelihood to Recommend	What most attracted me to Flutin is the ability to livestream to Instagram. I have a rather large following and this was critical. Their UI is also very easy to use and figure out. I wish they could figure out their latency issues for HD videos and add TikTok to the platform Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	From simple streaming to bigger events, OBS has been able to handle all of it with full confidence from us. Have never questioned if it was going to be unreliable in a specific situation, even with minimal training. Software identified the external input source easily and had no issues setting that up (Blackmagic Mini Recorder), and great for pulling in separate audio from the computer input. Incentivized Travis Gray Owner/Producer Read full review
Pros	Multiple streaming Easy to use platform Allows to upload pre-recorded videos Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Free software for live telecast Open source project for video recording Powerful video recording Written in C and C++ Totally virus free and free download Collaborates with Facebook live and YouTube live streaming. Computer screen recording A hub for collectting source and broadcast MD Rafsanjani CEO Read full review
Cons	There are some latency issues with HD videos Not fully stable platform Still missing TikTok and other big platforms Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	OBS can be a little clunky sometimes, the lots of features can be a bit overwhelming I can multitask with it, but can't run heavy software like Premiere alongside it No way to make adjustments to file after it's done, have to use After Effects or Premiere for that Incentivized HL Hayden LeMaster Owner/Operator Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Very usable because it is free and has had a lot of people helping to suggest improvements and sponsors have allowed the product to grow in sophistication and suitability across a variety of situations and use needs. It is very logical to use once you get started, although the dashboard can seem intimidating at first. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	For a free product, a range of support is available. There are plenty of ways to find out answers to questions, because there are probably thousands of people using the product who are willing to share what they have learned. It usually works as designed, so needs for support are limited. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Flutin Live is more robust and offers more platforms to livestream than BeLIVE. BeLIVE only offers YouTube and Facebook and has never expanded.

Return on Investment	Allows me to connect to my community Allows me to chat with them on the Flutin site Allows me to add links through the livestream. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	It was great to have a platform that is free that I can experiment with without having to use our business capital on. It took time to learn, but it helped me understand a lot of things, so it was a great learning experience. It was a great balance of cost and time with the high-quality product we got from it.
