"Best hosting platform for our Podcasts"
What do you like best about Transistor?

After testing transistor for a few minutes, I'm just sold to the platform. Pretty simple and good UI that helps me navigate and understand the platform better. Distribution, uploading and viewing analytics are just wow!! The tool looks simple, but trust me it's a powerful one if used in a right way!

What do you dislike about Transistor?

So far nothing, if they have made the Apple podcast distribution simpler then there's nothing more that I could ask for from the platform

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

1. It helps us distribute our podcast in various mediums 2. It also helps us to view the performance metric of each season, each episode. 3. Stable and Reliable UI 4. Good and responsive Support team

"There is not a better podcast host"
What do you like best about Transistor?

Transistor allows podcast creators to create multiple shows on one account easily. The feature has been essential for me as a university professor who creates a new podcast series of lectures for every new class I teach. With Transistor.fm I pay one monthly fee and can set up as many shows (or in my case, classes) as I need to. Another feature that Transistor.fm has is the ability to quickly and easily submit your podcast to all the different repositories (Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, etc). It took me less than 10 min to have my podcast submitted to all the directors I wanted.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

I've been using Transistor.fm for over a year now, and I can honestly say there is nothing I don't like about the service.

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

The big problem I had before I was using transistor was having to hobble together lots of different services and/or accounts on one service to create podcast-lectures for my students to listen to. With Transistor.fm I'm able to do all the work in one spot, with one account.

"Incredibly easy to use, very reliable, and the best customer service!"
What do you like best about Transistor?

The ultimate reason I went with Transistor is because their plans are priced based on the number of downloads you receive rather than the number of shows you have. I really like the idea of charging based on your show's success rather than your initial idea. After starting my free trial, and created my first show, I immediately fell in love with how easy to use their interface was. They integrate with a number of email services, auto-submit your show to most of the top podcasting platforms, and recently added Zapier and a developer API for integrating with anything else you could imagine.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

The one feature that I initially had difficulty with is their built-in website builder. It's a little limited and was difficult to style nicely. But they also offer an embeddable HTML player and simple social media landing page as well, so really you could always utilize those to build a standalone landing page for your show too.

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

Transistor.fm is a podcasting host, so this product creates a feed for your podcast episodes so they can be accessed by podcast players like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Breaker, and all others.

Across the board my experience has been excellent.

"Hands down the best Option for managing multiple podcasts easily"
What do you like best about Transistor?

Transistor's incredibly simple, easy to understand interface makes it easy to add, update, share and manage one or more podcasts. An absolute blessing for solo creators or small teams.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

Transistor doesn't have some of the integrations with other stats services that could be helpful for more advanced podcast users. While powerful, it feels like there are power-user features that may be lacking for some.

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

We migrated from a VERY outdated podcast host that was clumsy and cumbersome to update. Transistor makes it easy to upload, share and track each episode across multiple shows.

"We trust Transistor for our business podcast"
What do you like best about Transistor?

Transistor is easy to use, works the way we need a podcast host to work and has phenomenal support. If you aren't already using Transistor to host your podcast, you should definitely switch right now. Their pricing also makes it a pretty easy decision to use their software.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

Nothing - it has all the features we need, and their support is amazing.

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

We wanted to have a podcast for our company (Fathom) but don't have a ton of time to deal with hosting and uploading episodes to each platform. That's why we chose Transistor, we can automagically set things up and they take care of the rest.

"Transistor Review"
What do you like best about Transistor?

Transistor essentially automates podcast distribution and makes it really simple. Just a few clicks can get your podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and more. The analytics tool is powerful and helps to track success. Also, the company is small but the customer service is phenomenal. Quite frequently, I'll even chat with the founder of the company.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

There really isn't anything that I dislike about Transistor. I will say that we're still having a little bit of trouble getting the podcast on Apple Podcasts, but that's not Transistor's fault. Apple Podcasts can be difficult sometimes.

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

Podcast distribution made easy. I have a lot of other duties in my job, and I don't want to have to visit each distribution service to get my podcast up there.

"Transistor - The best and easiest podcasting platform"
What do you like best about Transistor?

Very easy to use, great support, analytics update lightning-quick.

What do you dislike about Transistor?

Had a real hard time getting the website set up, but that was self-inflicted DNS issues. The docs weren't great at helping me resolve them, but they've since updated them.

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

We're publishing our podcast about our business startup journey, and being able to easily put that out there without adding effectively a second job really helps.
