Crowdcast - Webinars & live streams that don't suck.

I've been using Crowdcast for every live chat or webinar I do for a while now, it's a great product.

very nice work! if an event is paid (or not), can recordings be easily removed if the host does not want to make recordings available?

Like @pjrvs said above, great software "just works". It's advanced enough for power users but intuitive for everyone. I keep finding new uses for Crowdcast. 1-on-1 coaching client calls: I want my coaching clients to not only get a video recording of our calls, but also all of the links and articles I send during the calls. My process used to be 1. fire up Skype 2. hopefully remember to click record with eCamm call recorder 3. host the call 4. after the call, upload to private YouTube (or send them the .mp4 in Dropbox) 5. all the links are just somewhere in our Skype history With Crowdcast Pro, I invite my clients to a private Crowdcast. That's it. The platform auto-records the video (no GoogleHangouts delay) and all of the links are in chat. If I want, I can even prompt clients with topics to discuss during our call using Crowdcast's "Questions" feature, which adds structure to the sessions. And that's just an edge use case...it also works brilliantly for broadcast webinars. It's simple, well designed and it just works. And the team is responsive to suggestions and changes. Huge fan.

random q: any plans to integrate q&a with external platforms so that discussions can live on forever without the screen cast? thinking of stuff like discourse.org - though I also understand that questions sync to time stamps in the casts themselves

What Cy and team have done is such a big step forward for video broadcasting - streaming, webinars, etc. - and this latest version eliminates the few remaining headaches that the team hadn't already solved. I've been using Crowdcast every week with @victormathieux to host an audience of meditators, and find it to be dead simple and exactly what I need.

Awesome Product! I like the poll feature the best and the realtime chat.

This is so awesome!! One question: what happens when we pass 10 events per month?

The product is very easy to use, no comment on that part, however, the support is very slow. That's my only issue.
