I can't recommend them enough

I started using bCast a number of years ago and have created a few podcasts. I have found it to be a very user-friendly platform that has options that make it easy to create and broadcast your podcasts. I love that it is one upload and edit and it goes to multiple platforms instantly. There are lots of little bells and whistles that I love. Thoroughly recommend and the thing I like best is, they are human, and they make the occasional mistake, however, they are quick to sort it out and get you back doing what you love. Thanks bCast folk.

Bcast is a great show host!

Bcast is a great show host!
I've been using bCast for a few years now. I like how you can insert announcements or commercials before, after, or in the middle of the show for ALL episodes including ones in the past.
Many times people will download the entire back catalogue so getting the announcements in old shows really increases the ability to get the word out on something important.

Simply the best podcast hosting platform I have ever used.

Simply the best I have used, period. bCast was amazingly simple to set up and get started. I have been using the service for a few years now and it has never once gave me a single technical hiccup. The people behind the scenes at bCast are truly doing whatever they can to help us as podcasters become more successful. It's actually rare to find a company that works so hard for their clients even when the clients are not looking. It's refreshing to see such things in 2023. I won't ever use another podcast hosting company as long as bCast is around. That's a promise.

Masterclass App

There are lot of products in the field of web based application market. But this is truly a masterclass cloud application of Podcast. Besides, the support team of Bcast is excellent. The founders are so passionate to keep their commitments to customers in terms of services & promotional LTDs. I can't but appreciating them for this product & their values. I wish all the best for their future products as well.

Way to go team bCast!

The folks at bCast are amazing! In this world where cancelation of ideas, things and people is rampant - bCast folks have proven to be honest, humble and positive folks. In a recent leadership "brain fart", leadership spoke before thinking causing a huge upheaval in the membership. These folks quickly saw the error of their ways and immediately reversed the action and are now being the responsive to customer company that we all believed they were in the first place. Way to go team bCast!

Awesome product + team!

For a podcasting beginner like me, bCast has been very easy to use. The interface is intuitive and doesn't feel overwhelming. It's also really easy to set up your podcast.

More importantly, the bCast team is always quick to answer questions (and very enthusiastic too, might I add) and to assist in resolving issues.

Major props to Tom, Chad, Neil, Anastasiia, and Audrey! I really felt taken care of... like I'm in good (and very capable) hands. Thank you!!!

bCast is the Way We Had to Do This!

This, of course, is a new thing for me and my wife who also has a podcast. We were so happy to discover a tool like bCast that could streamline our distribution and hosting. We're able to present our 'show notes', links and everything from our bCast website while offering links to Apple Podcast, Spotify, Google Podcast, Amazon Music Podcast and others. This has been extremely helpful. I highly recommend bCast for podcasters. You can hear what I mean with my bCast under CreativeHill Podcast with KeithHill.

I chose bCast over any other podcast hosting

I chose bCast over a bunch of other podcast hosting platforms, after research and lots of recommendations for the others. Why? It's easy to use (great for a solopreneur!), it's got all the reach I need, tech support is friendly and superbly helpful. The only little tiny issue I have is their voice-to-text conversion for transcripts is not great (and sometimes hilarious), but I have Otter.ai to make up for that.

Thanks so much for the kind words Sue... yep we are working on improving our transcription system ;)

A company that deserves a fair second chance

Revising my review as the team at bCast and the founder Tom Hunt assured me personally that they've revised their decision and won't be scraping the plan for the Lifetime Deal holders.

They've made a promise and I'd like to give them a fair chance to fix their mistake.

The product as such is wonderful and hosting podcasts on this platform is a breeze. Also, the new UI is very pleasing and smooth to the eyes. So I'd like to give appreciation for that as well to team bCast.

Hoping this product grows into one of the marketleaders.

bCast platform is a stable and reliable platform. When I first got into podcasting, I was using a WordPress plugin that limited how many episodes you could have, I wanted to expand but found hosting to be too expensive. A long came bCast that put out an offer that was really good and made life much easier.

The WordPress plugin player looked old and outdated and bCast's was fresh. It worked with the editor I was using and their features just kept rolling out.

bCast is devoted to development and they will admit when mistakes are made or if there's a known issue that they're trying to resolve and I'm grateful that they're around.

Coming over from Libsyn

Coming over from Libsyn. Established podcast with 100+ 5-star reviews on Apple podcasts. I really wanted to make sure the transition would go smoothly, especially since we can attribute about 10% of sales to this podcast. Support was very responsive. Bcast rep Audre C helped by hand holding me the whole way. This included helping me undo some mistakes I made on my end that could only be resolved with bcast support. I was initially concerned about moving this podcast over to Bcast due to some reviews related to a marketing email sent out earlier this year. Bcast has addressed these concerns to my satisfaction and I believe they have a great product that is well-supported and continually developed.

I am an early adaptor of bcast

I am an early adaptor of bcast. They are unethical & unscrupulous thieves. I regret backing them, as they have told us today, 12/16, that they are sorry, but they are cancelling our agreements, without refunding us, because they don’t know how to handle their finances or budget. But if we want to keep their product, we must pay again. Buyer beware!

One to watch

bcast is a clean hosting platform with a shallow learning curve and a host of help documentation, as well as one of the fastest support teams I have ever come across.
There are plenty of podcast hosts to choose from but the bcast usp is that its more oriented for marketers with such features as inserts that allow you to directly insert ads into your podcast.
It's a young platform with a team hungry to make it the best.

I Love bCast

I Love bCast! It offers everything I need, takes care of proper distribution to all channels, the statistics work well and most important for me are the audio inserts. Yes, they had their personal blackout, but learned from it. So, now I guess you not just get an incredible product but an incredible and supporting community, too. Also, the team behind is most supportive and on it. Again, I love it.

Very good service (ignore the haters).

Very good service. Innovation and accessibility. I've used Bcast since day 1 of my podcast (which I launched 18 months ago) and it's served me admirably.

I appreciate their marketing/lead gen focus and pushing the envelope of what a podcast hosting service should do.

YES - they made a stupid move on the Appsumo lifetime deal issue - and quickly realised their error, apologised and made things right. I was shocked, like many people, at the original email - but hey, we'll all done stupid things now and again! I've decided to actually pay the monthly fee as my podcast has been so valuable to my business.

So let's forgive one mistake, shall we - and focus on the service itself which is really, really good.

Best service for podcasts

Yes, they made a mistake by trying to limit features of early adopters which they later fixed. It is time for all people to accept Bcast is the best product available in the market. So please give your honest review now and stop punishing the founder for a mistake he apologised.

The best and most amazing experience!

The best and most amazing customer experience ever!

Just the services are already great:
- Easy to use but with all the features you need.
- Some incredible extras that really make the difference.
- A solid platform

AND AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE HUMAN EXPERIENCE. If all customer services would be the same, life would be so much better.

I am having real fun publishing my episodes in high professional quality and I feel very serene and the rest. Trusting completely the bCast Team.

A super, very, freakin’ happy customer here! :)

bCast unethically cancelled our lifetime license.

I purchased bCast lifetime license from AppSumo on March 18, 2021. Yesterday I received an email from them that they are canceling all licenses from AppSumo just because they want to upgrade their system to bCast v2, hence we should buy a new license. I was deeply astonished by this move. This is very unethical and disappointing. I'll never buy anything again from bCast and other products from Tom Hunt.

I recently signed up for bCast for my podcast hosting and distribution. I used to use Wordpress plugin Simple Podcast Plugin which worked very well for years.

But as my podcast has grown I need more functionality and tracking.

bCast has been really powerful and exciting so far! I can update the intros and outros of many episodes at a time so that I can update my promotions, something that would have been way too expensive and time consuming otherwise.

I had looked into other apps/services, but none seemed to bring it all together enough to motivate me to make the switch.

I've been using bCast for less than a week but I'm a fan! I would highly recommend giving bCast a try!

Fantastic and Advanced Podcast platform

This platform is excellent and offers many options and sophisticated tools to achieve any business objective you have. The co-founder is a genuine person and is leading the platform to greater heights. The pricing is affordable and you're getting a lot of value for the price. I've enjoyed using the platform and have had no issues. I look forward to its growth and roadmap.
