Where each one falls short

EverWebinar

  • The advertised $99 per month annual rate is billed as $1,188 charged upfront once per year, and the $79 per month rate is $1,896 charged upfront every two years
  • The $1 for 14 days trial is restricted to new customers only
  • All plans renew automatically unless cancelled

Panopto

  • No price list is published, and the vendor states there are no tiers at all
  • Cost depends on user count, integrations, add ons and deployment model, so several negotiated variables set the figure
  • Four capabilities are separately priced add ons on top of any quote
  • Every route to a figure is a demo or a conversation with sales
