That you can create a virtual high quality podcast starting with your desktop and mobile phone!
I haven't came across anything that I dislike about Riverside
That I'm able to put on a high quality and professional show, especially hosting podcast guest first-timers.
i like the ease of use, I like that when the recording is done I also receive a transcript of it. It makes editing so much easier!
Sometimes its difficult to find answers on the site, so I often have to reach out to customer service via the chat service.
It's making it easier for me to record and edit my podcast interviews.
Riverside.fm is delightfully easy to use, produces high quality audio tracks and video for my podcast and just works. And, the customer support is spot on!
The only downside is I'm now hooked. Nothing else compares. Not a bad problem to have ;P
Riverside.fm has solved the problem of high quality interview recordings for my podcast.
Riverside has been the best thing that we've found for our podcast. It records us no matter where we are in the world with unbelievable clarity and ease, and we can turn around episodes quickly. We also love the ability we have to clip videos for our social channels, which helps us promote even more easily.
There really are no downsides! Everything works extremely well and the software is reliable. We tell everybody about it.
We are co-hosts of a podcast and we're in different places. Before, we would chat over Google Meet and record to our local machines, but it took FOREVER to line up the audio and the quality was sometimes bad. Now we just pop in Riverside, record our episodes, edit for clarity and conciseness, and publish. It's really streamlined our production.
I love the fact that I don't have to risk losing quality because Riverside records locally. I also get multiple tracks that I can edit.
The editing features are very limited and not very configurable.
Recording multiple users and screens
I've used a lot of different podcast platforms to record, edit, capture video, etc... and pretty much all of them compromise in some area, except Riverside.fm. The system itself is really easy to use and I've had great feedback from guests on how easy it was to join sessions. I record a lot with guests so the experience for them is really important and in some other systems that I've used, there was a lot more lifting on their end than there should be. There's nothing worse than trying to trouble shoot some sort of weird glitch that prevents their camera or mics from connecting and so far that's never happened on Riverside and I am confident it won't.
I honestly don't have any dislikes. The only minor gripe is that when you click to download files it can be a bit confusing as to when they're actually available and if you go back to the page or is it a seperate page. It took a few downloads to figure it out. Extremely minor detail and probably me being super nitpicky.
The biggest challenge I had making my podcast and video podcast was the fact that it took many different platforms to accomplish what I was trying to do. I was using one system for capturing video, using my Rodcaster Pro for audio, another for editing, another for clips, another for transcribing, and it was getting ridiculous. I'm now using Riverside for everything but final editing, only because I insert ads, intro/outro, and export for hosting. It's saved me a ton of money and time to only have one spot to do the majority of the process.
I absolutely love working with Riverside.fm! Their platform is easy to use and any issues that I've had were quickly taken care of by staff. Since they've integrated ai and the ability to create shorts I've been able to streamline services in my business to create blog posts, short form content for social media and save money!
There were a couple times when moments of a recording were missing however, technical issues I've had, we're quickly investigated and resolved by staff. They really go above and beyond.
Since working with Riverside.fm, I have been able to consistently produce high quality podcast episodes with people from all over the world, I've been able to use the transcripts to create compelling blog posts and now the short form content has allowed me to eliminate other services and streamline my workflow while saving money!
I love how easy to use Riverside.fm is to use. I have used other recording platforms before for my podcast and Riverside by far produces the best video and audio quality. Even when it appears the internet connection isn't great the final quality is still always good!
Nothing! They are constantly improving to cater to the needs of their users.
I am able to record remote podcasts with guests from around the world.
There are quite many things I like about Riverside.fm. I currently use it for recording my podcast. I love how the end-product looks like and sounds like while it is so easy to record. I also love the AI generated clips, provided from Riverside. Just love it!
I have not come across anything I dislike about Riverside.fm. I am 100% happy with Riverside and highly recommend it. I did some extensive research on which platform to use to record my Podcast and am very happy I chose Riverside.fm
It is solving the problem I would have using Zoom, where the recording quality depends on the internet speed. I record a Podcast together with a friend and just love how easy it is to get a great result and high quality video and audio.
It's quick & easy to learn especially for someone like my friends & I that are not the most technologically sound.
After using Riverside.fm a few times and learning the ins & outs, there is nothing I dislike about it.
They make it easy to use and have super helpful videos to guide.
I have been using Riverside.fm for my podcasting needs and I must say, it has been an exceptional experience. The platform is user-friendly, making it easy for me to record high-quality audio and video interviews. The audio and video synchronization is flawless, ensuring a professional final product. One feature that stands out is the remote recording capability. It allows me to easily collaborate with guests who are located in different parts of the world, without any compromise on the audio or video quality. The ease of use and reliability of Riverside.fm have made my podcasting process seamless and efficient. Furthermore, the customer support team at Riverside has been outstanding. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and always ready to assist whenever I have any questions or concerns. Overall, I highly recommend Riverside.fm to any podcaster looking for a top-notch recording platform. It has exceeded my expectations in terms of quality, features, and customer support.
Only have used it twice now, have not found any downsides. I had a basic question and I was helped within minutes on a saturday
Makes it easy to create content with my clients
Riverside has this amazing feature called Magic Clips that ises AI to hunt down the interesting parts of your show and cut them in to ready to share clips.
I wish it would pair more easilwith my iphone camera.
Its just a great intuitive set up that makes it easy for guests to join us.
The quality, by far! As a podcaster, audio quality is a major piece and Riverside definitely delivers here. I've tested other platforms that do this same thing, but nothing matches the kind of Audio (and video) quality for an 'over-the-internet' type of setup. It's also amazing to see Riverside continuing to push the envelop and constantly be updated and adding new features that make my job as a creator SO MUCH EASIER!
The editing side of Riverside isn't perfect and can be a little cumbersome at times. That said, they have been steady implementing updates making it easier and easier to record AND edit all in one platform.
Quality is the biggest problem Riverside solves. I know many people use Zoom for this type of thing, but the quality doesn't even pale in comparison to what you get from Riverside. Their new Magic Clips feature is also a huge time-saver when it comes to pulling short-form content from the long-form videos. I can't wait to see how this new feature continues to evolve.
Riverside has made it so easy to export quality audio that is cleaned up and leveled. They also made it so easy to generate clips through AI -- It automatically creates clips and then generates great titles without any work. It makes social promotion so much easier.
I can do most of my basic editing right inside Riverside, but when it comes down to small, detailed edits, I prefer to export the file and do that somewhere else. However, I have no doubt that they will improve the editing features inside Riverside. They seem to always be imrpoving.
Riverside has made it easy to capture and clean up reliable audio. They have also made it incredibly easy to grab clips for social promotion -- Their Magic Clips feature is amazing. Lastly, I love having one universal link for my studio instead of a new link for every episode recording.
The thing I like best about Riverside is that it makes it easy for every person involved to produce good quality video. Rather than relying on the quality of the Internet stream, it does what all computers can do, and record the video to the hard drive.
Actually, there was one thing that I was going to say I didn't like, but after today, that is no longer the case. I grew up doing a lot of video editing, and Riverside's timeline did not allow me to zoom in on the timeline when I needed to make a precise, edit. Low and behold, I login today and they have added that feature. These guys keep getting better.
Creating a weekly podcast
I've hosted virtual summits in the past and we always used Zoom. This time, we used Riverside.fm and were amazed by how much the audio was improved. Overall, Riverside.fm was easy to use and reliable. I also love how it generates transcripts (saving us time and money, as we didn't have to invest in another program in order to create transcripts). Whether you have a podcast or are hosting a virtual event, I'd highly recommend trying Riverside.fm.
There was one interview where I was suddenly kicked out of the room - this only happened once (out of 21 interviews). I was able to get back in and pick up where we left off, but it was less than ideal.
Riverside.fm gave us a great way to easily record interviews. We could have recorded both audios and videos, but only used audios for this project. It was easy to record and we came away with high-quality audios. I also really appreciate how it generates transcripts that we can easily edit and use.
The automated captions and ability to change layouts.
The hindrance of editing mispronounced words in the transcript
It's helping provide captions from my videos which makes the user experience more enjoyable.
The ease of use for both us as hosts and our guests that record with us. Our guests have never had a problem. And customer support is the best when have questions.
We have had no issues to date. And when we had any questions, the Riverside team was quick to help out.
There are two fo us on our podcast. We needed a way to record outside guests and both of us hosts. Riverside fit the bill perfectly.
The recording quality is excellent! I also appreciate the instructional videos. I'm new to podcasting - viewing them helped me create a great program.
I can only reserve each studio for a single recording session. I'd like to schedule more. Also, the invitation function doesn't allow me to use my local time zone.
I don't have a technical background. Using Riveraide enables me to record a quality podcast without worrying about the recording quality or other technical issues.
I'ts built with video interview for podcasts and youtube in mind and makes it incredibly easy to generate social media snippets of your content. The editing capabilities are pretty decent for basic editing as well. Today I recorded an interview and the connection was so poor I was terrified that I'd have to rerecord it. But thanks to Riverside's local recording the end result was perfect!
The only thing I'd improve is that when I have edited an interview for export and want to create another clip I have to edit every thing once again. I'd love to be able to reuse the edit and export it in different formats. But it's a minor inconvinience.
All I have to do is send a guest the studio link and in 90% of the cases it requires very little setup with the guest if they have a camera and microphone already set up. I can simply hit record and Riverside records each audio and video feed locally, uploading them as we record and after the interview is completed.
