Finally, a media server that can scale and support todays platform needs

  • June 29, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We used multiple media servers and streaming servers to complement our SaaS product with real-time multi-party video conferencing. There are api based solutions that are not cost-effective at a larger scale and we had to choose an OnPrem version that we could effectively manage costs with.

While many open source/ commercial systems are out there and all of them claim to be scalable, real-time and having easy API's we had to iterate through 3 production-grade implementations before we finally ended up with Ant Media server.

The key things we liked were
- Easy scalability with a sensible dashboard/ UI
- AWS deployment was quick and easy, very little operations overhead to manage
- Great support both paid and unpaid

Mostly, the platform is reliable! it works even for 1000's of concurrent users.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had difficulty in the initial implementation with WebRTC with the JS API's not very clear; a more comprehensive example, particularly with multi-party video conferencing use case would help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are providing in-app video conferencing inside our SaaS collaboration platform.

Ant Media helped us implement this quickly after a few false starts with others services.

What do you like best about the product?
We were looking for a CCTV live view solution and we stumbled upon the Antimedia Server. We also looked at many other solutions, but Antimedia had a lot of promising features. We had problems with setting up a connection to our cameras with sound because they use G711A audio, but Antimedia did everything in their power to help resolve these problems.

Concrete:
- Very performant solution
- Docker support!
- Awesome support
What do you dislike about the product?
I have used it for a short-term project. Nothing for now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Live CCTV Broadcasting
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If not sure about purchasing you should try it with the trial and contact the support for any product/ project related questions.

Right tools and best customer support!

  • April 16, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
At my startup, we reviewed all the streaming tools in the market, and in Ant Media Server, we found everything we needed to create a complete streaming experience plus 1-1 sessions. The other tools lacked features, were too expensive or were built for large streaming channels, which is not what we need as a startup. Also, we have been talking to customer support requesting extensions to our free trial since we are still in development, and they have been extremely helpful. Even the Ant Media Server pricing is adjusted to what we are willing to pay once we go to production.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some specific features like the streaming of a multi-party session that don't work out of the box, but we wrote to support, and they explained how to implement those using Ant Media Server. Those features were a requirement for us, and none of the other products in the market allowed them easier than Ant Media Server.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are bringing for free all the tools that a modern professional needs to create an online office. Today they have to pay between $30 to $6000 just in tools, and we want to give all of those for free. Finding the right tools and pricing has been a key to our development.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should approach customer support and talk about your project and needs, and they will help you accommodate the use of Ant Media. In Boxitas we talked to everyone in the market, and none had the quick responses like the Ant Media Server guys.

I'm very satisfied

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to deploy in AWS Marketplace. No friction in the pipeline.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to mind at the moment. I will update if something comes up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted real-time streaming in our mobile app. This was sized as a large feature, but then we found that Ant Media Server was a pretty out-of-the-box solution that solves the problem surpassing our feature specx. We've been able to redirect engineering capacity to other parts of our app.

What do you like best about the product?
Love the fact that it's fast, and the API makes it easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features aren't very clear, the trancoder works for HLS but when passing it via RTMP it all of sudden disappears. I've followed the webhook documentation but couldn't get it working. The CDN functionalities are coming up so I will wait a little.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to do live stream, and this is a great service.

Actually, when it comes to ant media you have everything you desire.
