## Reviews

### "New To Riverside and Love it Already" — 4.0/5

> **Walter** | *3 July 2026* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have really enjoyed switching over to Riverside to record my podcast episodes. Once I did so, I was able to record my first video podcast episode and share it on my streaming platforms. Overall, Riverside has made it very easy to edit and share my episode, allowing me to record the full episode then helping me to get all the different things I needed for my different platforms including clips, cover art, audio files and more. I love how many options are available for me to create what I need all in one app. Overall, the layout is simple and easy to use. I can see myself using Riverside for an extended period of time for all my podcast needs.
> 
> **Cons**: I was having problems recording my first time with my guest because of connection issues on both sides. Riverside does take a lot of strength for a computer to run so we did have to record on our phones to get thee best experience so if their is a way to lighten to lighten to demand on computers so that connection issues don't bring recording problems, that would be great. &#10;I do wish that grouping the clips based on creation would be easier. I would love to share my clips with my guests so they can have access to their clips but without them separated by when I created them, it makes it hard to share with the guests if they wanted clips for themselves. &#10;I was just running into some issues with Riverside updating to my most recent episodes from Spotify. I put in a new link for my podcast on Spotify and the first two episodes are the only one's appearing on my dashboard.
> 
> I have been really happy with my experience overall. I love the recording. I love that the sessions are separated into "projects" so I can know what is involved in each group. I love the ability to allow this to be where I distribute my podcast from and even including a website for my podcast. This will be the website I use for a long time to work on my podcast.

### "A Game-Changer for Podcast Production and Content Repurposing" — 5.0/5

> **Brittany** | *30 July 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I love most about Riverside is how effortlessly it unifies high-quality recording with efficient content repurposing. The separate, uncompressed local audio and video tracks ensure pristine quality regardless of internet fluctuations. The text-based video editor and AI-generated Magic Clips have completely transformed my post-production process—allowing me to take full-length studio interviews and turn them into polished, captioned social media reels for Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn in minutes.
> 
> **Cons**: System stability can be inconsistent right after new feature updates, as the platform often experiences glitches for the first few days following a release. Furthermore, the auto-transcription repeatedly misinterprets certain core terminology, requiring me to manually correct the same words every week despite using them consistently each episode.
> 
> I have used Riverside.fm since 2021\! Overall, Riverside has been an essential tool for scaling my podcast production and streamlining my content creation workflow. The uncompressed local video and audio recording quality is top-tier, and features like text-based editing and AI clip generation save me hours when turning full-length episodes into social media reels. While platform updates can occasionally introduce brief temporary glitches and the transcription tool requires repetitive manual corrections for specialized terminology, Riverside remains a powerful, high-value asset for producing professional show assets.

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

> **Kelly** | *4 April 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.

> **John** | *3 August 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
