Why teams are choosing Stagetimer

In an effort to find a timing solution for remote guests, I tried multiple softwares, but stagetimer.io offers the exact feature set and ability to control that I was looking for. Have used it to manage virtual speakers in Venice, Italy, and Orlando, USA, for example, and it worked flawlessly.

We are a marketing material and content production company and primarily use the in-built production clock in vMix, but the timer and ease of access on Stagetimer is a lot better for our presenters.
