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

Restream

  • The free plan applies Restream branding to the stream
  • Simultaneous destinations are rationed tightly, at 2 on free, 3 on Standard and 5 on Professional
  • Recording storage is 15 days on free and Standard, rising to 30 only on Professional
  • Reaching 8 destinations costs $199 a month on the Business plan
  • Resolution is not the differentiator, since every tier including free offers 4K, so the plans sell reach and retention instead
