How to choose

Which platforms does it need to run on?

Start with the device or system you plan to use. The board lists support for web, Windows, API, Linux, macOS and iOS; check the platform details against your setup before choosing.

Does it need to stream around the clock?

If you want music to keep playing without a live session, compare the 24/7 streaming field. Playlist scheduling is a separate field to check if you want to plan what plays and when.

Which music playback features should I compare?

Use the board's audio-file upload and audio visualizer fields to narrow options based on how you prepare and present music. Check multistreaming and main destinations if you plan to send a stream to more than one place.

How can I compare cost before choosing?

Check whether a free plan is marked and compare the paid starting price where one is listed. A free trial is not the same as a free plan; trial length and pricing notes can vary.

Do I need an API or open-source software?

If you need a public API to connect software, check the API mark. If you need to read or change the code, check the open-source mark and the tool's licensing details.
