    The integration was quick and convenient. The DRMtoday service is easy and straightforward to use. In more than a year of using DRMtoday, we have not had any disruptions or delays and communication was efficient. The stability of performance and quality meet our expectations and justify the price.

    Watch out, Castlabs will charge you even if you never launch an instance. They will not offer a refund.

    There are hundreds of DRM providers to choose from - don't choose Castlabs.
