Hello, Thanks for sharing. Great video. My question is i didn't see where you could Chroma Key - support for background removal via a green screen. I currently use a green screen to rec my CZcams videos and want to be able use it for my streaming. Does either one offer this feature?
I absolutely love you guys doing this "competitor" comparison, and having fun doing it!
I love how you both were able to share with such class and elegance. You both rock!
Hands down...one of the best comparison videos I've seen on CZcams and I'm not being hyperbolic at all. The back and forth banter was very informative and engaging.
I'm so glad this was helpful for you! 🎉 Hope that maybe you'll be able to stop by and say hey during one of our live streams someday! (Friday at 10:00am PT) 🙂
Great comparison video! You both were great and I look forward to watching more video content from the both of you! Thanks Aaron
Cool...I like it! Thank you for a unique video!
Glad you liked it! Are you using either one of these?
Reastream has won my heart.
♥️🎉
Great comparison video, quick to the points and you both really j is your stuff, thanks ladies!
I'm so glad this was helpful for you! 🎉 Hope that maybe you'll be able to stop by and say hey during one of our live streams someday! (Monday and Friday at 10:00am PT) :)
These ladies are awesome valuable info and super engaging so you don't have to replay, replay, replay. I'm going with Restream because the interface is easier for me to navigate. Thanks Ladies!
Awesome! Thank you! 💖
Great content guys... Very informative and entertaining. Thank you.
This was the easiest to follow explanation video I've ever watched! Thanks you so much!
Glad it was helpful! 🎉 If you'd like to learn more about Restream, check out today's video: czcams.com/video/jsCJMCZDKQg/video.html
Not being able to host video files on the cloud without paying full price was the deal breaker for me with restream. Streamyard lets me do that in the free plan. I’ll be upgrading soon and looking forward to more features. Good video thanks ladies!
Alway a great video Luria!!
Thank you!!
Wow THANK YOU guys so much for this! Yes I'm NEW and want to add live stream to my coaching business.
Thanks for sharing! It was very useful 🙌🚀
Super nice review!! It should be noticed that Restream offers high-Res audio feature for musicians and the audio level of every “guest” can be adjusted on its window. This is very useful for quick audio corrections like “echoes”.
Great video! I appreciate both of you.
I'm so glad this was helpful for you! 🎉 Hope you'll let us know how it goes!
Trying to live stream today with streamyard on youtube-- studying up! This is fun to try and learn! Thanks for the info!
Hi! Great stuff! I am new! And, glad to learn from you!
Awesome comparison, very much appreciated!
Glad it was helpful! 👍
I purchased Restream!!! You both did a fantastic job!
Yay! Thank you! 🎉
Thank you so much for giving us More ideas about streaming.
Much love as always!
❤️❤️❤️
Great video - just started on stream yard. Learned some new features - thx!
Great to hear, thanks! Which feature is your fav?
This is wonderful - thank you ladies!
Glad you enjoyed it! Are you planning to try one, or both, of these?
I love y'all's energy together!
Awww, thanks! ♥
I appreciate you guys doing this; and your respective companies allowing you to. It's super-hard to both be fun and objective, while fulfilling your professional obligations in advocating for your platform as the preferred option. You guys did great trying to balance the two, and I think it's a good examples for other companies who may be scared to do this kind of thing. Friendly competition is good for the market, and it's totally okay to "fight" for your team's market share... as consumers we're making these judgments anyway, might as well see how the companies themselves would "argue" for their platform directly against a competitor. It also probably helps that both of your platforms are actually good, so you each are probably less sensitive to criticisms because you know your respective platforms have legitimate strong value offerings. Again, great job you two! 🙌
PS - This is my second time watching, re-visiting after a few weeks of procrastinating 😅
agreed so refreshing
NEW...;o)
I'm a STREAMYARD user and love that. It is more expensive on first tier plan but I feel it adds more features I use at that level. Loved the video, great work girls.
NEW! I will watch all your videos tonight :)))
Great Job Guys!!
I do have StreamYard and will be using it very soon! May use Restream to broadcast on more platforms at once! Great valuable content in this video! 👍
NEW!!! Thanks! This is helpful!
Yay!! So glad we could help 🤗
Loved this format, thought it might end up in a cage match... Great points for both. I'm going to try restream, I felt the featureset was larger though some of the features of Vidyard seemed very smart. The price of both should cap at 20 a month though.
This was insanely helpful, thank you!
Oh, and I currently use Restream, but I'm definitely considering Streamyard because it looks like the price is better for the features I need/want. That analytics feature with Restream is nice though...hopefully Streamyard picks that up soon. Thanks again!
Hello and welcome! 🎉 Glad the video was helpful!
I like y'all! This was great!
Awww, thanks, we're so glad you liked it! 🎉
Luria!!! This tag team is freaking amazing! Adding Melanie who’s I met on LSP... is perfect! I love her!
Hahaha yes! She's amazing!
@@LiveStreamingPros LOL Yasss
instablaster.
I am new to livestreaming. This is a great video! Thanks.
You are very welcome!
I've used Wirecast pro for many years now but found Rendezvous lacking for live guest interviews. I opted for Restream over Streamyard not became of features as I found them more or less identical but, I simply preferred the Restream interface. Inviting a guest into a restream broadcast however, I was told that in Streamyard, you have the option to use a Greenscreen.. Something not present in Restream it appears. I think this is a feature that has been missed in all comparisons between the two platforms as some people like this feature. Yes you can achieve the greenscreen effect using OBS Virtual cam but as Streamyard has this already built in, I think this should be highlighted.
Great review though, I love it. Keep up the great work!
amazing! thank you!
I have been using SY as I noted below and it has been flawless. The 1080 and sound quality is great (using rode xlr mic and rode procaster mixer). Never tried restream except for a few multi-streaming forwarding
Luria, thanks for a wonderful video! So many great points.
I read through the comments here and just wanted to pin a couple of FAQs from the thread:
📍 Restream allows you to Record Only by toggling off all the channels and clicking Go Live. You can then access the video in the recording, and it stays there for 15 -30 days, depending on your plan.
📍 Scheduling recorded videos to go live (or previous streams to replay) is one of my personal favorites.
📍 There is a way to play a video from your laptop (any length) using the local source button under a Guest button.
📍 Restream works with OBS and Ecamm, and even Zoom. The new feature allows you to pull your Zoom webinar directly into the Studio and add all the overlays/captions/comments etc.
📍 We have 24/7 stellar Support with real humans responding in under 4 minutes. Onboarding or tech issue - we got your back!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I think that Restream support is a little bit better also than Streamyard. They are responsive even at late nights when everyone is sleeping.
I'm a Streamyard user. Been using for a year. But one thing about Streamyard, they don't have tech support. Well they do , but it sorely lacking. Restream's tech support hands down is the best. They are patient and want you to get the best out of their software. Streamyard, although easy, just doesn't cut it when it comes to tech support.
New here! Thanks for the comparison!
i've learned a lot. Thank u so much
Yay! ❤️ Awesome 😊
Second time watching this. I have been trying Restream, Streamyard and Melon. Let me say I like Melon but, it has some glitches. Leaning toward Streamyard. You ladies make it entertaining and educational at the same time.
Would love to see the light setup you're rocking here. Your catchlights are next level.
Check out this series - you'll see the whole set up, start to finish! czcams.com/video/rDHNXfmIgiQ/video.html
I use restream and now that they have the event planner and FB and YT can be scheduled, we love it!
YESSSSS!!! I should have dug into that... d'oh!
Great video! Thank you both.
Hi, glad this was helpful! 🎉 Are planning on giving one of these a try, or are you already using one?
@@LiveStreamingPros I am looking at both, leaning towards Streamyard for simplicty, but also like some of the features (especially echo and background noise) in Restream. I like the chat functions in Streamyard, the ability to only onscreen selected chats rather than all of them, however we are still deciding if we will embed on our events site and wondering if Streamyard would be able to pick up chats on a site with an embedded stream, for example can we connect to a chat tool, or if Restream would be better for that. We may do some later streams on LinkedIn live so the ability to pull in chats from there would be a plus, in the long run. If you have any videos on these points, let me know and I will view. If not I will let you know what I find... although I am a total amateur at this :)
new ! i love your content i am hooked
Thank you so much and welcome!! Come say hi during one of our live streams :) Tuesday through Friday 10:00am PST!
@@LiveStreamingPros I will for sure ! I’m just moving into live stream for my business so your channel is PERFECT
Thanks ladies. It helped me make an intelligent decision.
great info, I am looking at these now to do some Amazon Live streaming. Tried to figure out OBS but it is a bit complicated so looking for one of these easier platforms, I want it to be professional looking and simple for a one person operation. thanks for the info
I loved the look of this video!!!! Which platform did you use for this video?
New but have been streaming with streamyard pro for over a year now on my channel. Fairly happy but wish we could do 4k with streamyard
You could reach out to their support team with that - it's the best way to get the features you want! 👍
Great video. I really appreciate the unbiased, neutral-type of feature comparison you both worked together to produce.
Wonderful, and thank you, because it helped me make MY decision - reStream. ;-)
thanks. this is very helpful. Thanks Luria
Awesome! So glad it's been helpful :)
What platform are you using to create this video? I like how you've set up the background template with the names.
Man I want to know the same thing!
New! Really a fabulous comparison! I use restream and compared it now with Streamyard. I will stay with Restream!
Yay!!! So glad it helped!! 🎉
This was a great comparison video. I love both features its so hard to choose. It would be great to have a one flat fee as opposed to a subscription model. Good job overall.
Glad you liked it!! (choose Restream cough cough hahahahaha)
@@LiveStreamingPros we actually have both. Not a fan of Restream live streaming functionality but love the multi streaming when using vmix. Stream yard has a timer to show how long you were live & it automatically schedules/sets up the event on the respective platforms so not sure the clear winner
Ohhh I actually use StreamYard on a regularly basis, but also have pro access to restore am LOL which I loveeee too
Thank You soooooooo Much! I am starting my new channel "The Freedom Project" and I'm def. leaning towards Restream. Looking forward to building a great platform.
Hello and welcome! 🎉 We are always here to help!! Join our lives and say hi (and ask questions!) Monday and Fridays at 10:00am PST
Really good ,I’m just looking and watching videos.
Newish: Thank you so much for the comparison. Great content and gives me something to th about now. I've been testing OBS which is great and I'm comfortable using but sometimes you just need something easy to get you live with minimal effort. Thanks again!
Hello and welcome! 🎉 Glad you found the info helpful! Would you be looking to use Restream or Streamyard on mobile, or just as an alternative to OBS on your computer?
@@LiveStreamingPros just on the Mac.
Cool! Let us know how it goes! 👍
new... I think i will be choosing Restream! I will check out your videos. but I have a question. What if I have laptop that is a few years old? Does the camera I use effect how the videos are streamed live? Also, what camera do you use?
We've been using StreamYard and I prefer it in most ways... but those Restream analytics are the bomb!
Restream and StreamYard are both awesome!
New! Great video I think I still don' quite know. They both seem great!
They are! You could try both 0 they have free trial options - and see which one is a better fit for you! The links are in the description...
what a refreshing way of reviewing the apps. Love it guys. I like stream yard for price and what you get in the middle option but restream looks slightly prettier so when i hasve more cash i would upgrade to their pro version
Thank you for the informative video. It really gave insight into both platforms. For someone who isn't very "technical" when it comes to live-streaming nor has the internet speed to do it with OBS, for example, I have been enjoying using StreamYard. The fact it has been working for me thus far at the internet speed I have, and that it doesn't seem to lag or freeze (as of yet) is a winner in my book. And it's a bonus that StreamYard has a Facebook group (which I just learned about) where you can not only ask questions to get some help if needed, but it's another great way to meet and become friends with others. I look forward to upgrading my plan soon with StreamYard, and becoming a member of their Facebook group.
Thanks for sharing this
You are very welcome!
NEW - Great comparison. I am looking to do the edit destinations mid-stream. I have been googling how to do this but I think I don't have the correct search terms.
Basically, I wan the first 15 minutes to be public on FB and YT but for members, I want them to watch in the member's group. And, in this member's group, it would be a WordPress page with the stream running. I assume this is possible - no? Also, if we do it that way, how do we cover off chat when we do this?
Thanks and really enjoying deep diving into your materials.
M
I actually recorded this type of tutorial to go out but OMG you idea is wayyyy better haha
❤️
Both platforms sounds amazing
you are such a pro. I love it. I want to know what cam did u use and what did u use to record this.... Streamyard? hahaha
LOL, thanks for the kind words! We used Ecamm to stream this... 😎
@@LiveStreamingPros mmmmmmm so… it was like none of them so everyone happy? Hahaha. I still don’t know how to put that bar with info as a banner o lower third on Streamyard
This was so good!
I'm so glad this was helpful for you! 🎉 Hope that maybe you'll be able to stop by and say hey during one of our live streams someday! (Monday and Friday at 10:00am PT) :)
@@LiveStreamingPros I will for sure. I'm just starting my live streaming journey -- much to learn.
Glad to be a part of that journey! ♥️
On the fence to which way to go... you gals are great by the way.
I'm new! Checking your comparison
New here I need these tips thanks 🙏
Luria - great video. I'm still in a position where I'm figuring out which direction to go - using Streamyard, YT Studio or maybe something else to go live. Also figuring out if and why I would need something like an ATEM Mini or OBS if I'm using Streamyard et al? I hope you'll be making a comparison video talking about your Level Three software - like ecamm, etc.
Ooooooh that’s a great video idea! Level 3 comparison.
Restream integrates nicely with Ecamm and OBS and you can use ATEM Mini with it as well
@@anyarazina6919 Thanks!
StreamYard integrates with all of those, too. ;)
How did you guys add white strokes around of the videos like that, was that done in streamyard or reastream??
Is this video post edit or you use re-stream or streamyard.
basically i want to know is how do we get the design of the frame which the edge of the frame is curved. the amazing thing is only one side is curved
Just getting started here!

Hello! For an online convention, interviews, easy streaming... which one is better? Greetings from Spain.
Hello, Thanks for sharing. Great video. My question is i didn't see where you could Chroma Key - support for background removal via a green screen. I currently use a green screen to rec my CZcams videos and want to be able use it for my streaming. Does either one offer this feature?
Hello there! We would need to still be streaming live to cover all the AMAZING features of both platforms. 😁 The answer is yes, you can use "green screen" on both platforms. Here's some more info:

@@LiveStreamingPros Awesome will defs check it out and try make it live 🙏🏿💜. Often I just catch-up on all the content late coz I'm usually watching CZcams in the evening like now before bed or something unless I'm feeling extra in the mood to procrastinate during the work mornings 😂
That works too! 😁
This a great video! As a Streamyard user, I have seen Melanie on her own channel who is fantastic. Got a couple of questions...
1) Restream still has no ability to record a file only unless you go Private and then download the file afterwards, is that correct?
2) Is there a definitive guide of the different layouts available in Restream? I've love to see a video of the different layouts available for 3 to 6 people.
3) The feature I'm finding so handy in Streamyard is Sharing a Video straight from desktop. I have previously shared a pre-recorded hour long video "as live" and have then been able to overlay the live comments over the top, which provides nice interaction. The risk is though - if my internet connection goes, I'm screwed. So, in Restream, if you schedule an uploaded video (great feature), can you go in and relay live comments on top at all?
It *seems* like the transitions and caption animations look a little classier on Restream, and of course there's the Analytics - which look great. Tough decision!
hi Luria! Is there any way to do a live survey/poll with the streaming participants? any features/add ons? Thank you!
Not that we've heard about. That would be a great idea to submit to their support teams - couldn't hurt to ask, right?
What about the 'remote producer' options and log-ins for my remote producer??? How do we have a producer produce us??
When you hire a remote producer, they already have a solution in place that they'll use to manage your shows. 👍
When Live streaming an event from CZcams Streamyard has lag. Does anyone know If restream is better for Live streaming CZcams | twitch events?
New New New... ladies thank you for this Video really enjoyed it but you just made it more difficult for me to choose.
Love the two go head to head in peace❤️❤️❤️
I have been using StreamYard for at least 9 months now. It is simple and if I have a technical problem I can always ask after my broadcast. I just checked out Restream today and I like the fact that all the backgrounds, video clips and overlays are visible and ready to use. They are pretty cool! I am not sure that StreamYard has them. If they do, they must be hidden somewhere. I will have to do some searching on CZcams. What I don’t like about Restream is that you have to pay $50 in order to get rid of the logo. I do free broadcast and can’t see me paying so much money a month, when StreamYard does it for half the price.
This is awesome but... it kept me confused on which to choose. lol They BOTH are awesome, and each have at least one thing I want.
Yep, hear ya... They're both great and have a lot to offer. Have you thought about trying them both to see which feels like a better fit for you? You can get a free trial of both! (Check the description for links.) Hope you'll let us know what you decide!
I use a Apple M1 laptop with my 810 mini pro Iso. I’m trying to find out how to handle a client zoom conference & stream to Facebook at the same time. I can’t connect into a router and have to use the clients wifi.
I spoke to Blackmagic & was told my solution might be to use my old 2013 MacBook as another source to connect to for the zoom conference.. I also have a 9” external monitor.
Yet I have a Pelican case I modified to hold my 810 & a 7” monitor.. I also have the 15 key stream deck.
Searching CZcams a few results to my question was I had to use or pay for StreamYard, Ecomm or Vimeo to do this?
Looking at updated info. :) Which has the BEST video and audio quality and features, retream or streamyard? :) Thank you so much again! Peace & Love!
Well, that's the thing, both are pretty evenly matched! If you watch the video, we do discuss the couple of points that one has over the other, but really you can't go wrong.
The best news is...you can try both for free to see which one fits your streaming process better! Check the description for the links. Hope you'll let us know which one you prefer! 🤞
@@LiveStreamingPros I definitely appreciate you as always! I have watch this video, a few times. :) Love it. I may have missed the actual video and audio quality differences between the two, if there is any? :) I know both offer 1080p. Appreciate you!
Nope, they both measure up on those! 🎇
@@LiveStreamingPros you continue to amaze Luria! Thank you again!
New. I currently use streamyard but I’m thinking of switching to ecamm
Any horns , countdowns on streamyard or restream?
I've been subscribed to BeLive for 2 years, and now to ECamm, Restream & Streamyard for coming up to the year (renewal time). With using a combination in a daily morning card reading, I have ECamm virtual camera into the BeLive streaming to FB page & YT channel, then have the ECamm simulcasting via Restream to the 4 locations of 2 FB, Twitch & Periscope. So, SY is now only being used sporadically to keep up with the updates. I need to be deciding very shortly which 2 main options I continue with. Four full subscriptions is a tad costly!
Wow, yeah, that's a lot! If you're comfortable with Ecamm and Restream, you should be able to do everything from that combo. Also, you know that Periscope is going away, right? Have you decided what you're going to use instead?
@@LiveStreamingPros no idea yet, as I have'nt made the time to research what the options are yet.
Well, if nothing else, you'll want to download anything from Periscope that you want to save...it'll close down at the end of March 2021!
In the free version there video limitation? how many mb can I upload to exibe on the live?
I use SY but I would love them to add analytics! Great feature for sure.
👍
Totally agree! It could happen. We’ll just have to keep requesting it. :)
can you explain how you did this video..?
Thank you.
Hello and welcome! 🎉 Glad you found the info helpful! Are you using either Restream or Streamyard now (or are you planning to)?
What about recording to then edit and upload later?
