## Reviews

### "DON'T SIGN UP" — 1.0/5

> **Elijah** | *March 8, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Cons**: This is probably one of the worst softwares that I have used fro recordings. You have to redo your recordings 10000000x times due to issues with the system or glitches. I literally was so patient with them but I'm so done with this software. Literally run away and go find another company that makes real products.

### "Riverside Makes Podcasting Easy" — 4.0/5

> **Kelly** | *April 4, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: They have made so many upgrades since I started using it 2 years ago.  It's easy to record and editing has gotten a lot easier.
> 
> **Cons**: It's still very glitchy.  We I'm editing the buffering sometimes drives me mad.  i don't know if it's them or my wifi connection.  And when I used the VideoDub to edit a word in a Magic Clip it also changed the word not just in that clip but in the longer episode and I didn't like the way it sounds.  Couldn't change it back.
> 
> Overall I guess the pros out weigh the cons.  It's not perfect but I would say it's a good experience.  I like that they are always adding new things.

### "Best way to start a podcast" — 5.0/5

> **Kelly** | *February 20, 2026* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a novice, it was easy to get up and running quickly with Riverside. The chat support and tutorial videos were helpful in coming up the recording and editing learning curve at the beginning. I also love how they are always iterating and improving the product with new features. I eventually hired an editor and am happy that I could invite her to the platform - it makes collaboration on the episodes much easier.
> 
> **Cons**: It's technology, so it's not without its minor glitches here and there. That being said, none of my episodes have ever been fatally compromised because of tech glitches.
> 
> I love Riverside, and I'm so glad I was willing to pay a little bit to start with this platform rather than trying to go the free route.

### "The Most User Friendly Video Content Creation Tool i have ever used" — 5.0/5

> **Charlie** | *March 20, 2026* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Riverside is so easy\!  As someone who is always testing tools out to make business easier, Riverside was so easy to get started, develop style and export the episodes and shorts. It is saving so much time.
> 
> **Cons**: I with the transcript tool did a little better in language recognition. Far too many miss spellings or strange combinations of words.
> 
> I have recorded well over 70 shows now on Riverside, the additional features with shorts, hooks and segments are changing my social feeds and growing audiences. This has become my leading source of content creation because Riverside is so user friendly.

### "Riverside is the key to long-term podcast success" — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *February 24, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Riverside is easy to use, priced right, and they continue to add great features. We tried a few other platforms before finding Riverside, and it has saved us so much time and frustration, we can't imagine using anything else.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing really. We wish sending assets out (syndication) was a strength, but that would simply be a plus.
> 
> Super solid, reliable, and easy to use. Far and away the best podcasting recording and editing solution available today.
