"Awesome podcast hosting"
What do you like best about Transistor?

It was super easy to get up and running, and it helps you submit your podcast to the various directories (Apple, spotify, etc). It also gives you a landing page if you want, and I love the API and embeddable player that lets me put the latest podcast episodes on our landing page.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

Nothing really to dislike! It does exactly what it says: it helps you get your podcast up and running super easily.

What problems is Transistor solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed to host a podcast and Transistor makes it super easy to get started. Fair prices and a clean interface make it a no brainer. We have two people operating the podcast, and it lets us share responsibilities (one is an admin, one just a user). It also gives us basic analytics that make it easy to see where and who is downloading our podcast. Also, the ability to just click a button to submit to the various podcast hosts (Apple, Google, Spotify, Overcast, etc) is _super_ nice and easy compared to doing that all by hand.

"Quickly Get Your Podcast(s) Online"
What do you like best about Transistor?

You can quickly get a podcast online and distributed. You can have as many podcasts as you like. Some hosts charge per podcast. You get access to a website for your podcast if you wish.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

That it charges per downloads vs "unlimited" downloads like some hosts. However that's part of it allowing for unlimited podcasts.

What problems is Transistor solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used to spend a lot for each of my podcasts. Now I can host on one place. I've noticed their analytics are easy to understand too.

What do you like best about Transistor?

The I like how it handles everything, it gives helpful analytics connects to the podcast platforms really easily and even generates a website for me!

I haven’t found any yet, I had a great experience the whole way through.

What problems is Transistor solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use transistor to host our new postcard we just started, as we didn’t want to manage it manually, other free options exist, but I have to question how they are making money.

"Nothing can beat the unlimited podcasts and one-click submission!"
What do you like best about Transistor?

Transistor has an amazing UI that makes podcasting dead simple. You can host as many podcasts as you want for the same price. They’ve got a killer one-click submit feature for podcast players. Also: Fantastic humans!

What do you dislike about Transistor?

Nothing. It’s super affordable for what you get and they’re constantly shipping new updates and improvements.

What problems is Transistor solving and how is that benefiting you?

You’d think that hosting a podcast was simple. But there’s so much nuance and a bit of a learning curve to overcome. Transistor holds your hand every step of the way and shows you exactly what you need to do. I never worry about anything podcasting-related because I know Transistor can do it or teach me how to do it.

"Perfect for podcast hosting"
What do you like best about Transistor?

I have a business where I need to manage multiple podcasts, Transistor is the absolute best. Their interface is clean, their support is top notch, and it’s easy to setup secondary users to manage the different shows.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

I wish I could organize my shows into folders.

What problems is Transistor solving and how is that benefiting you?

Multiple shows all accessed with one login. Rather than having multiple signings and charges to my credit card.

"I've used the app for 3 months now and love it."
What do you like best about Transistor?

I have been an early access user of Transistor.fm for a few months before they launched. I have wanted to start a podcast for years and came up with every excuse in the book for not doing it. Transistor removes all of the headaches of publishing and maintaining your podcast. The online dashboard easy to use, you will be up and going in minutes. This is the hosting solution I knew I wanted even before I saw the product. So actually getting what I wanted at a really good price is a no brainer. Justin and Jon have been really responsive to feedback as well!

What do you dislike about Transistor?

I don't have any complaints about Transistor at the moment.

What problems is Transistor solving and how is that benefiting you?

The online dashboard easy to use, you will be up and going in minutes. They allow for multiple users so that you can have multiple people manage show episodes. It can even create a website for your podcast
