Always been happy with the product

Always been happy with the product, BUT....

They are getting bigger and like a lot of greedy companies who get bigger, they are jacking prices up. Looking for alternatives now. We may drop them.

Hi! We are glad to hear you are happy with our platform.

Our price plans had not changed since 2014. Since then we have added loads of new features like live transcoding, HLS ingest and enhanced security.

Like most other industries, we have also seen a pretty big increase in our costs as well. It was necessary to increase our prices on some of our plans.

We are still one of the most competitively priced platforms on the market and we think we offer tremendous value for money to our customers.

We hope that once you start comparing us with our competitors you will agree.
