Where each one falls short

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

Omny Studio

  • Omny Studio publishes no pricing or plan tiers; the only route to buy is a Contact Us form, so cost is by quote only
  • Omny Studio is positioned as an enterprise podcasting platform for podcast and radio networks rather than individual creators
  • The CMS is available in only six languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German and Italian
  • Social video creation depends on the third party Headliner integration rather than a built-in editor
  • Paid subscriber content is delivered through Apple Podcasts Subscriptions rather than a native paywall

Blubrry

  • Entry plan at $7 per month allows only 1.5 hours of new audio published per month
  • Advanced podcast statistics require the $25 per month Advanced 6 plan; cheaper plans get standard statistics only
  • Monetization features are restricted to the Advanced plans
  • Dynamic ad insertion, programmatic advertising, unlimited shows and sub-accounts sit on a Professional tier with no published price
  • Publishing allowance is measured in hours of audio per month, so a long-form show hits the cap quickly
