Best low-priced webinar software

We’ve used WebinarIgnition for about 5 years. We’ve run webinars of over 1500 attendees on it successfully.

What it does well:
It’s rock solid (nearly). We’ve tried most other webinar platforms (Webinar jam, webinar ninja, etc.) and none handled large numbers of attendees well. They would freeze or crash. Webinar Ignition does this well, IF you have a good server and use Cloudflare.

That said, if you max out your server (about 1500 attendees for us), then things start to break. Less than that, no problem.

Price – It’s $200 one-time. Can’t beat that when others are over $500 per year.

Customizable – it runs on YOUR server (not someone else’s), within WordPress. So, it can be customized a decent amount.

Support – Support is good. Responsive. They fix bugs and add features regularly.

Auto-webinars – it has really good auto-webinar capability.

What it could do better:
No way to embed the registration form in your own page.

Stats – nearly non-existent. Plan to export data to excel or google docs for analysis.

Features – It doesn’t have the deep integration that some systems have (but doesn integrate with most CRMs). It is missing other random features, but then again it has others (like it can send SMS text reminders).

Overall, it’s a great webinar system. ALL webinar systems have issues. Webinar Ignition just has fewer than most. Other systems have just frozen or dumped all attendees. This has not happened in over 5 years with Webinar Ignition. If you’ve ever sat there helpless looking at a frozen webinar, you know what I mean.

WebinarIgnition is meant for marketers, not corporate presentations (use Zoom for that).

It’s meant for selling stuff, and that it does well.

Highly recommended.
