Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Burnalong

  • Nothing is published, so an employer cannot benchmark a Burnalong quote before entering a sales process, and third party estimates of a low single digit per employee per month rate are unconfirmed by the vendor.
  • Content comes from a marketplace of independent instructors, so production quality and instructional rigour vary noticeably between classes and there is no consistent standard across the catalogue.
  • It is a wellbeing benefit rather than a clinical intervention, so it will not satisfy a plan looking for measurable clinical outcomes, and employers who buy it expecting claims reduction are buying the wrong category.
  • Per employee per month pricing across the whole population means an employer with typical wellbeing engagement is paying for the entire workforce to serve the minority who log in more than twice.
  • The social class feature only works if colleagues coordinate to attend at the same time, which requires organisational effort HR teams rarely sustain past the launch campaign, and without it the product is a video library like any other.

Voluum

  • The entry Profit plan at $119 per month includes 1M events and retains data for 6 months only
  • Events beyond the plan allowance are charged as overage, at $0.06 per 1,000 on the Profit plan
  • Custom domains are capped per plan, at 3 plus 1 dedicated on Profit
  • Data retention is tiered and reaches 24 months only from the $1,599 per month Enterprise plan
  • Cookieless tracking starts on the Start-up plan at $539 per month
  • Chat support on the lower plans is limited to 14 days
  • The Automizer ad spend integration is a paid add on that rises to $2,380 per month at $1,000,000 of tracked monthly ad spend

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Burnalong: Does Burnalong publish pricing?

No. It is quoted per employee per month. Third party review sites cite a low single digit dollar rate, but the vendor does not confirm any figure publicly.

Voluum: What is the base cost to start with Voluum?

The Profit plan starts at $119/month, which includes 20 active campaigns, 1 million events per month, and 6-month data retention. Annual billing is available at a discount.

Source
Burnalong: Is it a clinical programme?

No. It is a wellbeing content platform. It has content covering chronic conditions, but nobody is warranting clinical appropriateness for a given member, and it should not be compared against clinical vendors.

Voluum: How many active campaigns can I run at each pricing tier?

Profit (20), Scale (60), Start-up (100), Agency (200), and Enterprise (400) campaigns respectively. Custom Corporate and Executive plans allow unlimited campaigns.

Source
Burnalong: What makes it different from a fitness app?

Two features: members can take a class together remotely, and the instructor marketplace covers niches such as adaptive, senior and cancer recovery that studio produced libraries do not.

Voluum: What happens if I exceed my monthly event limit?

Overage charges are applied when you exceed the included events. The page mentions overage pricing but does not specify the per-event rate.

Source
Burnalong: Can health plans resell it?

Yes. Health plans and health systems are a significant channel and often deliver it under their own branding.

Voluum: Is there a free trial period before I commit to a paid plan?

Yes, Voluum offers a 14-day platform preview with no payment required to test the platform.

Source
Voluum: How long will Voluum keep my data?

Data retention ranges from 6 months (Profit), 12 months (Scale, Start-up), 18 months (Agency), to 24 months (Enterprise) depending on your plan.
