About

Use Facebook to live stream a chat, show, Q&A, or virtual event, or sell products through a live video. Learn how to make personal connections and create shared experiences with Facebook Live. You can go live on your Page, group, profile, or event using the Facebook app on your mobile device or by using a camera and streaming software (also known as an "encoder"). If you want to broadcast live with a camera and encoder, you should use Live Producer. If you go live from a desktop or laptop, you'll automatically be directed to Live Producer, which is also the way to go live on Facebook with higher-end production equipment and streaming software. With live polls, easily create polls before a broadcast starts and share them with fans during the broadcast.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It's easy for our small team of volunteers to set up and run each week, which is great since our AV team had to do a lot every Sunday
  • 90 day unlimited storage - including videos upload. Stream to multiple platforms. No login or registration for viewers. Ease of use. Multiple channels. Stream LIVE from iPhone or iPads. No extra hardware needed to start.

Cons

  • The only issue we've ever had was some server side clock issue which caused our service to start to soon, but that was fixed with in a week or two.
  • Price. For Zoom meetings, cannot user recurring meeting - need to generate a new meeting for every schedule broadcast / stream. Only iOS support for mobile devices.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to use when it actually works. Other than that not much is really good about it. It rarely does.
  • Very easy to broadcast to a live audience on the largest scale possible. Have a great audience reach.
  • It is easy to use in the application or with a computer system internet browser, and also quite reliable. Furthermore, the analysis and metrics offered are extremely valuable, as well as allowing you to customize your discussion to better reach your target market. In addition, I particularly valued the choice of using a wireless microphone connected to a laptop for the programs; this has ensured that our visitors hear with exceptional quality.
  • Simple as it Works from within Facebook. Easy to get audience. Works from both desktop and mobile. Supports multi stream softwares like Restream.
  • Easy to use. Works right from Facebook website or app itself. Decent video quality & low bandwidth usage. Watch party feature.

Cons

  • No reach, viewers, visibility, hides comments, cuts out, kicks off viewers, cuts out sound.
  • The support feature provided by Facebook can be improved.
  • Sometimes it will certainly remove a longer webcast, however, there are ways to resolve this hassle. Analyzes are also not readily available on the mobile app, you can only access them on a computer system. Not a big problem, but it would certainly be appropriate to be able to consult them on the go, rather than having to wait until you are back at work.
  • No analytics feature. Full of low quality streams ( content wise ).
  • Needs moderation on content . No innovative features. Doesn't not allow collaborative streaming - like Squad streaming feature of twitch.
