tecsystvQ: How is your platform general offering / functionality / features / capacity is different from Videolinq and ...
from OneStream (both were offered as Lifetime deals here on Appsumo)? From a user perspective I can't really find the difference. Both offers multi-destination streaming of live feeds (even multi-feeds in the case of Videlinq), while OneStream provides as well live streaming of recorded asset/s. I'll be happy to learn the differences in order to better analyze a potential purchase.

May 14, 2024A: Hi tecsystv! Alex B here (you can call me AB).
I'm an avid user of Switchboard (as well as an employee). I think one of the biggest differences is StreamShare. I use stream share when I'm live streaming with other podcasters and they all want to carry the group live video. Instead of my guests pointing to my feed, they can carry the video feed on their social destinations and say "hey I'm live". It's a win win. You increase your views to a brand new audience, and the guest gets the benefit of a live stream without all of the extra work.
StreamShare allows you to invite your friends/guests/supporters to add their destinations to your stream with the ease of an email invite. The email link takes you to a landing page that (for our higher level AppSumo Deals) includes custom branding. It's a great way to instill confidence and look great when inviting users to share their stream. Here's an example:
Copy and paste this link for an example "branded page" .

I hope that answers your questions. Thanks for considering Switchboard!

apologies if this has been asked before, can you explain to me what a branded page is (maybe show an example) and also the HTML5 player, what does that do, and can you show an example of how it works and looks? Thinking of 5 stack but would like to see how these look and work first

NOTE: To livestream to FB GROUP you must ALLOW/ADD switchboard as an APP before you see the stream. Go to your GROUP SETTINGS>Advanced Settings>Apps>Click the pencil and Search for switchboard and add it. Before I did this, my stream was not visible and i would not get the LIVE from the switchboard dashboard. This was my personal experience while testing the platform. It might be different for others. My 2cents.
