Choosing instead of Restream
Its free plan reaches two channels at once and carries Restream branding; paid plans start at $19 per month, with 20% savings on annual billing. Studio screen sharing requires a desktop browser, not a mobile browser. An alternative may suit you better if you want a lower starting price, a desktop production application, cloud forwarding that reduces upload demands, app-embedded interactive video, or dedicated recording and editing tools. Compare each option's platforms and whether its main workflow matches your way of producing and distributing video.
