Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

I would research other products available and compare their services to what we currently have. I would also do an in-depth research on each product's reviews. If possible, I would reach out to other businesses that use streaming services and find out what they use and why they chose it and what feedback they have. I would talk directly to the individuals responsible for using/maintaining the streaming service.

In general, I think that I would not change my evaluation and/or the selection process described beforehand. Unless there will be a breakthrough proposal/service offered by one company in the field of live broadcasting of events, I think that the price will still be the most important factor influencing our decision making.

Unless another vendor has all the features of IBM, I wouldn't bother sourcing a new vendor. It just takes too much time to find all the feature sets, test and prove them in dynamic situations, and get users accustomed. Its just really easy to turn-on IBM, deploy to client, and start streaming the content.
