Hi all,
I've been a paying Premium user for around eight years now and am pretty happy with it but I'm open to discovering new things. What are the good reasons, in your opinion, to shift to Deezer?

Not interested in listening to gapless on mobile. I want to use this as a home stereo libray/player. But I
l’ll try it right now.
Hi all,

It depends. Deezer likes iPhone users and if you are one, fine. If you are not, and like long pieces of music, forget it. They inject silence right in the middle of the music if the music continues through tracks, as does an opera.
I am just trialing one with 3 mo from Samsung deal.
I like Deezer, but it has too much of a bugs and in over a year as a customer things has changed, but not all bugs we reported together disappeared. I’m not going for now, but I’ve been testing out.
I hope that Deezer will improve a lot.
In my opinion you can not just sit tight for years to wait full working product when elsewhere you can find one today. It was hard decision, but I might go to tilad or spoti after my Deezer half annual free.
Especially now when they raise price to 10,99, you can get more for less or same price.
I do not pay for Deezer Hifi a dime, but even this I think is not something to make it main player.
This is Legends price. I agree with all posted here, test service one year to see if it really works for you. For me decision was hard, but it feels like posting bug reports to them does nothing as no fixes.
They did fix bugs in months, but is still quite long time to walk daily with them.
I have problems activating tilad, but I sent them a Request.
Also I must say I do not like design of Web App of Deezer, especially the profile with all these tabs I never use and Android Offline not loading. Countless reports by me. It feels sad, I’ve posted about that too, but nothing is yet changed. FLOW plays the same music I heard daily from it already. No variety by now. I am literally at the point that I am willing to pay for a service that works better for me. The offline download problem is on Android for months now also reported by users, not just me and we still can’t see a proper fix for that. When core features, eg the point to subscribe does not work, it’s very funny. You do this or that just to Download playlist Offline full. It takes days and all these workarounds, elsewhere you update playlist and it is update on phone same second. On Deezer you go from app, close it, clear cache, just to get basics work. It’s sad and I tried to let them know as we Legends are to do, with no one to fix. When problem is when devs have time to do, I feel sad to search options. Again, it’s not to make bad day for everyone, I am just tired of bugs much.
I’d really like to stay longer, but with this much bugs, I’ll test for a while elsewhere.
Now as you see I get Deezer Hifi Family for free Legends price.
It’s fine as long as you do not want anything fancy. Apps not equivalent to features.
This all is what makes me going elsewhere, at least for main player :)
All you say is true. A year ago, someone said they were “working on” gapless play. They’re not serious.
Gapeless is available on mobile .
Let's hope Deezer wakes up and starts doing something, because if Deezer Legend leaves to compete, it would be a real shame for Deezer...
It was hard decision for me, but as I use it as my main player I can not no more live with it. I asked 9 months ago to improve trackmixes on underground dance, and app still plays top 100 charts. I opened same name on other services, and there was related music to the track. Deezer is great, but I can't just sit tight waiting for years, to get what is available right now if you walk other way.
It was hard decision, but I use only one music player, so I finally need options.
Deezer may work for you if you are listening casually and has no need for else. I do not get benefit from Hifi, so I’d prefer 320K AAC, which they do not do. I need to save my data with my slow nets.
I’m sorry, but I just can’t take it anymore, the bugs I and other users keep reporting simply gets nowhere.
Same bugs week after week, it gets on nerves.
Especially the FLOW playing same I already hear, trackmixes going charts, if you listen rare music.
When generally like I said Deezer has potential, I don’t see it improving, so this is why I decided to change service, even if I get Deezer Legends price which is much cheaper than on price list.
I am for 15 months, if they’d wanted, they’d improve in that time. As small business you really need to support it and I wanted, but the amount of bugs still online simply has tired me to wait.

Oh wow, Sara
That's super nice of you, thank you for the feedback. It's also our aim to be smoother when it comes to features and how the app/service works. What I can't dispute, and I'm with you on that, is our passion for music and the fact we do everything having our users in mind. It's what drives everyone forward here. Don't get me wrong, it's tough! Because of our size, we're unable to provide everything our fans ask for, we need to make decisions on what comes first. But it's definitely all to please our beloved users, like you.
And I think your opinion is a true reflection of today's Deezer - and for that, it's nice to see that our care for you and everyone has come through 
Not gonna lie, Spotify was easier…
- I’m a last.fm freak and tracking my music habits with Spotify was smoother and way more accurate.
- Almost any platform related to music, offers some sort of integrations with your Spotify account
- Most of your friends are on Spotify (everyone has an account there) socialising and sharing playlists there is a joy that you can’t experience on Deezer
- Most Artists tend to share their personal picks and playlists and generally being active there
- The platform is constantly growing and offering new features, it’s a huge company with decent budget for recording their own special tracks with artists (Spotify singles blablabla), recording their own podcasts, offering huge range of other people’s stations and radios, etc.
and a lot more advantages
Basically if you’re a Popular music lover and fan of mainstream stuff, you gotta be crazy to leave Spotify for anything else…
But…
If music means more than that to you, after a while you pick on
- low sound quality
- lack of expert playlists
- Their editors’ low knowledge of different genres and their sub genres. as a results of that, their genre playlists and mixtapes are huge disappointments
- You won’t believe me but their archive lacks some special releases and albums
- you can’t change your country, so you can’t access some special editions that were released in specific areas (like, artists home countries, etc.)
- THEIR ON NERVES IGNORANCE towards feedbacks and suggestions and generally voice of users
while Deezer offer you
- Knowledgeable editors (I PERSONALLY LOVE ADAM & ROD! Deezer’s alternative & Rock/Metal editors) who create awesome, accurate playlists and genre mixes
- Hands down higher, better, cleaner sound quality
- The ability to change your country / bigger album catalog
- Unique Flow feature (you need to give it a lil time, the more you listen the smarter it gets)
- built in musical habits analytics (your current top tracks / your top months / your top year and a brief comprehensive analysis that will be sent to you as an email)
but what Spotify and others can’t really beat is Deezer’s behaviour toward their users. Their costumer agency is fast and caring. As a beta user you can get involved in upcoming developments. They’re super open about feedback and feature requests. And above all that they’re fighting for justice in this industry!! Above all those features that other platforms can somehow offer them as well, Deezer isn’t a big company helping ‘injustice’ in pop culture or worse than that a company that ‘belongs’ to someone ‘from’ that freaking field. Or a side project of big tech names that doesn’t really care about music. I switched to deezer and sticked around because they’re passionate, caring and the catalog is CLEANER
Thank you for your detailed feedback about Deezer.
I agree on all of this, from Spotify to Deezer I’d fish faster development with less bugs when feature is online. On Deezer new can be released beta and for example it does not work well until fixed.
You are very welcome to support Deezer in the future too.
Thanks for staying around. Something new is coming to features you love ;)

I agree with most of the ideas mentioned above. Here’s a detailed comparison and you guys might be interested: Deezer vs Spotify. I have transfer my Spotify playlist to Deezer for a while and I am pretty satisfied so far. :D
Intersting. I also found another article that enlightens me a lot: Spotify vs Deezer: Which to Choose And I prepare to move my Spotify playlist to Deezer. 
You are most welcome.
Are you going Premium or Hifi plan?
Both can be discounted annually, sonos hifi deal Deezer on their site or Annual Premium deal.
I pay for Deezer Premium €7,99 a month annually.
These deals are not Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals. These deals are on Deezer site all over the year. You can get them any time and please recommend to all your friends too. Worth it.

Always nice to hear nice comments like that,
Thank you for giving us a chance
And as the underdogs, we're super committed to elevating the service to the next level. Have you also checked our UCPS initiative here?
About UCPS. And this is my honest opinion about it.
That is a very good implementation and probably the least intrusive one possible. I hope that Spotify and other competitors will do it in a similar fashion. We need to make our music compensated.
From favourites to our night time discoverings. This idea is actually top notch to stay Deezer.

My 2 Euros for the conversation :-)
- FLOW - I’m in love with that feature . Mix all the genre and suggest new tunes .
- Great audio quality . Better than Spotify
- I can upload my own MP3 files to the service ( On Spotify you can but it’s a bit tricky )
- When you hearted a song it won’t be added to the albums section like on Spotify
- Great community . I think you won’t be lost here .
Currently trialling Deezer (coming from Spotify).
You can do something like Flow in Spotify. If you integrate Spotify with Last.fm, you can then get Last.fm to play random music through Spotify based on your (or others) previous listening habits. Can be a bit temperamental though.
Personally here to try out the lossless audio. I am also hoping the devs are a bit more responsive here...
Hi all,
I've been a paying Premium user for around eight years now and am pretty happy with it but I'm open to discovering new things. What are the good reasons, in your opinion, to shift to Deezer?
Reason number one.
Spotify is going to raise the prices. Price increase will arrive soon. Already on Family plans.
In other words, it doesn’t make any sense for me at least to raise prices in a recession, where people have lost jobs and are cutting unnecessary expenses — like their streaming subscriptions.
https://www.somagnews.com/spotify-is-said-to-be-hike-soon-here-are-the-details/
With Deezer Premium I enjoy Premium month at €7,99 price point year in advanced.
Spotify Premium can increase from 9,99 for 10,99 easily if not more.
I see big marketplace waiting Deezer because of this price raise this coronatime.

Concerning Spotify Connect Deezer can at least sync the play queues on all devices now, so it always starts at the beginning of the last heard song if you change your device. You can enable play queue synching in the audio quality settings.

Hey
Our feature here won't be finished in 3 weeks but it's being prioritised because, after all, it is indeed a killer feature - and so, we have to be realistic. Subscribe to both topics if you can, so that you can be kept updated in case you decide to move to another streaming service 
Hey
Thank you for the feedback. I will keep me updated regarding remote control.
It is good to know that Deezer sees this function as a priority to bring an additional differential to the service.
I don’t think this is a deal breaker for me.
After all I am just listening with finest Bluetooth headphones on laptop and with loudest Bluetooth earphones on the phone. It works perfectly fine for me with Deezer playlist sync.
I still hope they can implement it for people who are keen into this Connection feature.
Like I said before, having Deezer Premium paid year in advanced is best hot dog in town.
