Where each one falls short

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

Demio

  • The Starter plan at $45 a month billed annually caps attendees at 50 and sessions at 3 hours
  • Automated and pre recorded on demand webinars are excluded from Starter, so the entry plan is live only
  • 1080p streaming, restreaming, live captions, auto transcriptions and custom domains are all Premium only
  • Attendee capacity is a priced tier within a plan rather than a soft limit, at 150, 500, 1,000 or 3,000
  • Only Premium, at $196 a month billed annually, removes the host limit

Run The World

  • The Internet Archive's capture of Run The World's pricing page on 8 December 2021 listed Free with up to 50 attendees and 1 session per event, Pro at $79/month billed annually ($99 monthly) with up to 500 registrations and 3 sessions per event, and Business by contact only; ticketing carried a 15% service fee on Free and Pro or 4% on Business, plus a $1 minimum fee per paid ticket and a 2.9% plus $0.30 Stripe processing fee.
