The short version

  • Only Riverside has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.

  • They diverge on capability: Riverside covers Local recording, Webikeo covers Live webinars.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Riverside

  • The free plan gives a single one off 2 hours of recording rather than a monthly allowance
  • Free exports are capped at 720p, so remote recording quality is the paid feature
  • Separate track recording is metered monthly, at 5 hours on Pro and 15 on Grow
  • Downloadable separate tracks are metered on a different allowance again, at 15, 20 and 25 hours
  • Removing all time limits requires the Webinar plan at $79 a month or a custom Business contract

Webikeo

  • Webikeo operated a two-tier model (Freemium and Premium), confirmed by its own site navigation exposing separate "Premium channels" category pages distinct from free browsing, but no archived page ever discloses a price for the Premium tier; the theme's own asset filenames (logo-tarif-freemium.png, logo-tarif-premium.png) are the only trace of what a dedicated pricing page once showed (archived category page, 1 December 2015)
