FAQ
What is the difference between a webinar platform and a video conferencing tool?
Video conferencing tools like Zoom Meetings or Google Meet are built for two-way collaboration where everyone can talk. Webinar platforms are built for one-to-many broadcasts — presenters share, attendees watch and interact through Q&A and polls — and add registration pages, email reminders, and marketing analytics that conferencing tools lack.
Is there free webinar software?
Yes. Livestorm and Riverside both offer free tiers suitable for small webinars, and Zoom's base plan supports limited meeting-style sessions. Free tiers typically cap attendee count and event length, so most teams upgrade once they run regular or larger webinars.
What is an automated or evergreen webinar?
An evergreen webinar plays a pre-recorded presentation on a set schedule so it feels live to attendees, letting you run the same high-converting webinar continuously without presenting each time. Tools like EverWebinar and WebinarJam specialize in this for sales funnels; Demio and Livestorm also support automated events.
