Where each one falls short

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

ClickMeeting

  • The free plan caps attendees at 25, recording storage at 30 minutes and file storage at 500 MB
  • The Live plan allows 6 hours of recordings and 1 GB of files, and excludes automated and on demand webinars
  • Automated webinars, auto streaming and follow up emails require the Automated plan
  • Paid webinars, custom branding, breakout rooms and certificates are all excluded from the free plan
  • Attendee capacity is a priced tier within each plan, at 50, 100, 200, 500 or 1,000
  • Multiuser access is limited to 3 on both the Live and Automated plans

Livestorm

  • Billed per attendee credit at 2.50 EUR, where one credit is consumed per unique participant per session over a 12 month period
  • Cost therefore scales with audience rather than being a flat subscription, so a successful webinar is a larger bill
  • The Pro plan caps sessions at 4 hours, and 12 hour sessions require Enterprise
  • Live attendees are capped at 3,000 per event on both published plans
  • Enterprise pricing is custom and not published
