Where each one falls short

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

eWebinar

  • The subscription level is set automatically by how many active eWebinars you have, so the bill moves up on its own as you publish more
  • Level 1 at $99 per month allows only one active eWebinar and 1,000 registrants per month
  • Level 3 at $299 per month covers 15 active eWebinars and charges $15 per month for each additional one
  • Extra registrants are sold only in blocks of 1,000 at $49 per month per block
  • Removing the 'Powered by eWebinar' branding costs $99 per month on top of the subscription
  • Using your own custom domain costs $99 per month extra
  • The Salesforce integration is a $249 per month add-on and the Marketo integration is $179 per month
  • Advanced access control, which restricts who can join by email domain, is a $49 per month add-on
  • The universal cross-webinar dashboard is a $229 per month add-on
  • Enterprise registrant volumes and active webinar counts are quoted by sales with no published rate

Livestorm

  • Billed per attendee credit at 2.50 EUR, where one credit is consumed per unique participant per session over a 12 month period

  • The Pro plan caps sessions at 4 hours, and 12 hour sessions require Enterprise
  • Live attendees are capped at 3,000 per event on both published plans
  • Enterprise pricing is custom and not published
