Demio

- Only Premium, at $196 a month billed annually, removes the host limit
BigMarker

- Attendee ceilings gate the tiers, at 1,000 on Basic against 10,000 on Enterprise
- SSO, multi-factor authentication, white-labelled domains and live captioning are Enterprise+ only
- API access and breakout rooms require Enterprise
