"So easy to start a podcast with!"
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!

What do you dislike about Transistor?

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.

"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

"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.
