  • Each has a real cost: Anchorfree the vendor's own domain (anchorfree.com), as captured by the Internet Archive on 11 January 2023, redirects to and displays the Pango Group corporate site, stating Pango Group is owned and operated by Aura and describes itself as a portfolio of consumer security brands; AnchorFree's original product (Hotspot Shield) survives only under the Pango/Aura ownership structure, confirming the acquisition in the vendor's own words rather than a third party account; Splash That acquired by Cvent in August 2024 and now sold within the Cvent suite
  • They diverge on capability: Anchorfree covers Live streaming, Splash That covers Event pages.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.
