Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • We were looking for a streaming server with api to create our OTT, and we settled on Callaba. We choose them because their API generate HLS video links of our SRT or RTMP source. We use Callaba server for creating mobile apps, segment live broadcasts from TV channels into ts fragments with adaptive bitrate with minimal actions.
  • We tried to host a few small-scale lectures and looked for an easy way to collect entrance fees from our attendees. It worked quite well, surprisingly. I'm not too fond of Pay Pal though, but as long as we don't get charged any kind of commission on those payments, I'm down to use whatever. So far we hosted 4 webinars with attendance ranging from 10-14 participants.
  • + As some others have stated, this is a good tool for simul-casting. That's what I've been mostly using it for. + Their support agent told me you can stream to Callaba from within Callaba to avoid excessive transcoding. As an optimisation freak, I liked that.
  • If you need to multi-cast your streams to a bunch of social services, this works simply great. I prefer it to Restream as I don't like subscriptions. Easy and fast integration, within a short amount of time you can set up your stream flows.
  • The web player is great. I can monitor my streams to see if the video is not jittering and I can share the link with my teammates. Usage-based pricing is another plus. You can turn it off and on when needed.

Cons

  • No docs for Rust. We use rust as our mobile rest api. Hope they will add it.
  • Although we can upload the background image and the logo, I wish there were more options to customise the web player colour scheme to get the whole branding together. PayPal is not my favourite too.
  • - Could be more convenient. I have many 'custom' destinations, and I feel like there needs to be an 'address book', as I can't possibly remember all of the IPs and what they represent.
  • I'd like to be able to group my settings into folders. But really it is not a problem at all, if you use clear naming conventions.
  • These guys need to add a detailed documentation about all the various settings and parameters that this software provides. There are tooltips, but sometimes it's not enough.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • First off, there is an Error in this comparison description. vMix is not made or affiliated in any way with NewTek. That being said vMix is the premiere new kid on the block that have raised the bar significantly for everyone else, including NewTek. (although NewTek is mainly a hardware solution with software) vMix has excelled in newer, popular features and seems to be coming out with more features every six months or so. I see how all the "Old-School" companies are bad-mouthing vMix as being "just a toy" because they are genuinely scared of losing their clientele to vMix... as they should be. vMix has boldly added just about everything, but the kitchen sink, and they don't apologize for it. Everything it does, it does well, or at least pretty darned well. Their integration of dedicated Call-In features along with NDI & SRT support is notably featured and it all comes at an affordable price.

Cons

  • It's hard to post cons as I really really had to think hard to come up with a couple aspects that I honestly think they might be taken as trite points. vMix's User Interface feels a little clunky making the learning curve just a bit harder than it has to be. The program writers who designed this platform are obviously not seasoned Professional Content Producers (as seen in their own sales and weekly promotional pieces). This leaves us with a kind of "Computer-Geeky made" software that does not always fit in the "traditional" production environment that we're comfortably used to. That's not to say that there aren't work-a-rounds and/or newer ways to skin a cat. Also, there are a few features that any professional would think should have been obvious and included, that for the life of me, I can't understand that after many many feature requests, the nice fella's down under just don't seem to implement or even entertain the thought of adding certain features. One, for example would be some sort of a waiting "Green" room for the Call-In folks. Whoever comes up with this protocol first IMHO is going to instantly garner the whole market... like overnight.
