Where each one falls short

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

Livestorm

  • Billed per attendee credit at 2.50 EUR, where one credit is consumed per unique participant per session over a 12 month period
  • Cost therefore scales with audience rather than being a flat subscription, so a successful webinar is a larger bill
  • 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

WorkCast

  • Listed on UK G-Cloud 14, the WorkCast Corporation's own Virtual Events pricing document offers a 14-day free trial covering the Lite and Pro licence tiers of the WorkCast platform
