I love the fact that it launches my streams automatically for me. Implementation and integration were super easy. We simply pointed our ATEM to Castr and then told Castr where we wanted it to go. Had it up and running in our existing system without needing new hardware in a matter of a couple hours.

I've been using Castr now for 3 and a half years. I have never had a problem with it's service, unlike other solutions that I've used in the past. Castr never lets me down. Plus the cost is actually too affordable in my opinion.
