Do you want to watch TV from your computer without making complicated installations or have all kinds of hardware and devices you do not have at home? Well, in that case, you need an application responsible for offering you this type of content quickly and efficiently so that you can entertain yourself. You can even do without the traditional cable service, replacing it with it.

Although there are obviously many platforms that could fit into this description, and in Usitility, we have analyzed several of them, undoubtedly one of the most interesting is Zattoo, so today we will focus on it. The first thing we should say about it is that there are two versions of this service, a free one and a paid one, which prevents us from seeing ads or commercials from time to time during its use.

Well, then Zattoo is a software thanks to which you can watch TV directly on your computer without needing to be an expert in the field, but depending only on having a stable Internet connection. That way, if you have a laptop and move from one place to another, you can follow your favorite programs by asking for the WiFi password of the hotel or cafe where you are staying.

However, and it is important to point this out before continuing, we have to say that Zattoo is not available in all countries of the world, but rather in a few, and in fact, its availability is changing over time. That is why it is vital that when you install it, and before telling the program in which country you are, you check which countries are supported at that time on the web.

Likewise, before watching your favorite programs, you will have to register with Zattoo, a process that takes only a few minutes but that you should consider because other similar applications do not require this registration. All these previous steps may discourage this utility, which nevertheless offers such an attractive image quality that it soon makes us forget about such inconveniences.

Well, having made that clarification, we can say that Zattoo has been available in Spain so far for a reasonable amount of time and that during that period, some of the local channels that were broadcast through this tool have been Canal Sur, Telemadrid, Clan, Intereconomía, La Sexta, Telecinco, Cuatro, Antena 3, La 2 or La Primera. As you can see, the variety of channels and content is not wrong.

Then, to give you an idea, some of the other countries where Zattoo has been available and therefore have many local programs added to their database are the UK, Switzerland, Germany, France, Denmark, and Belgium. In other words, if you're looking for exotic channels or channels from parts of the world other than Europe, this probably isn't the best service for you to use.

And as we always emphasize when it comes to analyzing this kind of platform, Zattoo works best when our Internet connection has good bandwidth and is entirely stable. So if you can move your computer, it's a good idea when watching TV from here to move it as close as possible to your wireless source.

Zattoo's user interface is one of the best we think you'll find in this segment of applications. We have many channels at our disposal, with images illustrating their contents while moving through the options is easy. If you are a design lover, you have a tool at the height of your demands.

If it comes to analyzing the main positive aspects of Zattoo, without any doubt, we have to stop in the first instance in that we do not need either a card to tune the TV, an antenna, or any other device or hardware. On the other hand, the reality is that one of the applications to watch TV from our computer offers the best image quality, which is always an exciting point.

The weaknesses of Zattoo, on the other hand, are related to the installation and registration process, which requires us to analyze in which countries it is available at that time, in addition to adding personal data before being able to use it. Likewise, you will need to learn to deal with its built-in ads unless you are willing to pay for the full version of this service.

In conclusion, Zattoo is an excellent program for watching TV on our computers. However, it has some too important limits for an average user, which we found enough to look for other alternatives. For this reason, we would recommend its installation only to those who are more concerned about the image quality of the contents than any other parameter to analyze.
