Uscreen is an easy to use platform, perfect for small to medium sized businesses to build their channel on. They have introduced tools and features that are absolutely perfect for any niche content creator.

The fact there is not much analytics, the platform friezes a lot of the time, the organisation of the content is not very customisable, the user experience is quite poor.
