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

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
