The key advantage to Plex is that it has apps for just about any platform you need. Most smart TVs will have a Plex app, there are Plex mobile apps, and apps for the PlayStation, NAS devices, etc, etc... Plex often muddies the water by trying to push their paid/premium offerings on you, but it's these paid services that keep the core platform functional and free for everyone else.

- flatiron 5y agoThe main users of my Plex server are not tech savvy. They are my parents/aunts/uncles/cousins/brothers in law/etc. I could consider other platforms but Plex works because it’s stupid simple for clients. That’s my number one requirement. Less support calls.
