The short version

  • Only ClickMeeting has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: ClickMeeting the free plan caps attendees at 25, recording storage at 30 minutes and file storage at 500 MB; ON24 the Internet Archive's capture of ON24's homepage on 1 January 2021 named five distinct platform tiers, Webcast Elite, Engagement Hub, Target, Intelligence, and Connect, but pointed visitors to a 'Find your pricing fit' quiz rather than publishing figures.
  • They diverge on capability: ClickMeeting covers HD video, ON24 covers Live webinars.
