Streamlabs vs OBS
Streamlabs and OBS compared for a first stream: setup, alerts, price and control, and where Streamdzy fits between them.
The short answer
OBS is free and gives deep control with a longer setup. Streamlabs is built on OBS and adds alerts and overlays, with an optional paid tier. Streamdzy is free and adds phone cameras and multistreaming with a short setup.

Questions
Which one should a beginner choose?
Try a first stream in each. The one you go live with in an evening is the right one.
Want all of this in one app?
Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
