    "Podbean"

    Posted 2022-05-25

    Pros: Easy to connect to other streaming services.
    Support is helpful.
    Website is decent.
    Statistics are available.

    Cons: Many of the features are not available on the app like they are the browser version. (The app needs tech work).
    I don’t think Podbean offers a whole ton of exposure.
    People don’t want to download the app.
    Statistics are all in GMT for some odd reason.
    you can only go live for a certain period of time based on your host level which sucks.
    Podbean seems like a beginner app.

    Overall: Overall Podbean is great for beginners but I wouldn’t recommend it as you continue to grow your podcast and it isn’t ideal for monetization of the podcast. This platform is great for podcasts that are mostly a hobby and not hoping to go much further.
