LiveWebinar

LiveWebinar is a browser-based platform for webinars, online classes, meetings and events. It is best suited to teams that need audience interaction, automation or paid webinars alongside live presentations. Its small free tier is useful for trying short sessions, but serious hosting quickly requires a paid plan.

Overview

Hosts and attendees can join from a browser without installing software or plugins, which reduces setup friction for mixed-device audiences. The platform also works on PCs, Smart TVs, mobile devices and conferencing systems; its iOS app supports hosting and attending from iPhone or iPad. LiveWebinar says its cloud infrastructure spans 42+ data centers and has over 99% SLA availability.

Room sizes range from 25 to 1,000 attendees, with larger rooms reserved for Enterprise customers. The service also describes capacity above 1,000 participants, but the listed plans below the Enterprise tier are capped at 25 attendees. That makes the headline capacity less relevant to buyers who need a larger standard plan.

Key features

LiveWebinar combines screen sharing, live video streaming, HD recording and social-media broadcasting with polls, surveys, live chat, Q&A, whiteboards, breakout rooms and certificates. These tools suit teaching, recruiting and team sessions where participants need more than a one-way presentation. Registration pages and engagement analytics also support lead-generation workflows.

Live, automated and on-demand webinar modes let a team reuse presentations instead of hosting every session in real time. Evergreen webinars can run continuously to generate leads and sales. Built-in ticketing and payment processing support paid webinars, while integrations with marketing automation tools and CRMs, embedding, webhooks and an advanced API allow more tailored workflows. LiveWebinar says it can build a missing integration on request.

Security features include AES-256 encryption, TLS, unique session tokens, single sign-on and role-based access control. The platform uses regional data isolation and 24/7 security personnel. These are meaningful controls for organizations handling business events, though suitability still depends on their own security requirements.

Pricing

LiveWebinar is freemium, with a lifetime free account that needs no credit card. The free plan allows five attendees, 30-minute sessions, five cameras, one concurrent session and 50MB of storage. It can support a small test or brief internal session, but the attendee and duration caps make it a poor fit for a public webinar.

Basic costs $25.58 a month, billed per month, billed annually. It raises the limits to 25 attendees, six-hour sessions, 10 cameras, one concurrent session, 100MB storage and 50 registrations per 24 hours. This is the entry paid option for a small audience, but its modest storage and registration quota constrain recurring events.

Plus costs $33.58 a month, billed per month, billed annually. It keeps the 25-attendee and one-session caps while extending sessions to 12 hours, increasing storage to 1GB and allowing 200 registrations per 24 hours, with 12 cameras. The extra storage and registration capacity make it more suitable for small teams running lead-generation webinars.

Premium costs $49.67 a month, billed per month, billed annually. It includes 25 attendees, 12h+ sessions, 12 cameras, one concurrent session, 10GB storage, 1,000 registrations per 24 hours and 10 paid webinars. It suits creators selling products or courses, but the 25-person room cap remains a substantial limit for larger events.

Enterprise has custom pricing and offers custom attendee and session limits, 10+ concurrent sessions, 10GB+ storage, 1,000+/24h registrations and a white-label solution. It is the fit for organizations needing larger rooms or multiple concurrent events. Annual billing is advertised with 20% off; support is in English, and paid plans provide contact support. There is no free trial, so the lifetime free tier is the available way to assess the service before paying.

Platforms

LiveWebinar supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows and web, as well as an API. Browser-based HTML5 access means viewers do not need separate software. The platform is also described as compatible with PCs, Smart TVs, mobile devices and conferencing systems.

Who it's for

Choose LiveWebinar if your work combines webinars with audience interaction, automated or on-demand sessions, CRM and marketing integrations, or paid event tickets. Its browser access is useful when attendees use varied devices, and Enterprise is positioned for larger rooms and white-label needs.

Look elsewhere if you need more than 25 attendees on a non-Enterprise plan, several concurrent sessions, or generous free storage. The free plan is particularly restrictive for regular external events, and each paid plan below Enterprise still allows only one concurrent session.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Browser-based hosting and viewing avoid software downloads, reducing barriers for attendees on different devices.
• Pros: Live, automated and on-demand modes, plus ticketing, support both lead generation and paid webinars.
• Pros: API access, webhooks and marketing and CRM integrations give teams options to connect existing workflows.
• Cons: The free plan is limited to five attendees, 30-minute sessions and 50MB of storage, so it is not a practical recurring-event tier.
• Cons: Basic, Plus and Premium all cap rooms at 25 attendees and concurrency at one session, despite higher overall capacity claims.
• Cons: Basic storage is only 100MB, while larger rooms and white-label options require a custom-priced Enterprise plan.

Alternatives

Compare webinar software if you want to weigh more options category by category.

• Zoom Scheduler is worth considering when you need booking pages and calendar connections rather than LiveWebinar’s webinar-focused tools; its Basic plan includes one personal booking page and one calendar connection.
• MyOwnConference may suit a very small audience seeking a free autowebinar option: its free Starter plan supports five attendees, 500 MB storage, two speakers and one autowebinar per day.
• Webex App is an alternative for free meetings of up to 100 attendees and 40 minutes, rather than LiveWebinar’s five-attendee free webinar tier.
• Livestorm offers a free allowance of 30 attendee credits per year, with 30-minute events and 10 events per organization; consider it if that limited annual event allowance fits your needs.
• Shindig is another freemium event option, with its free plan allowing 100 participants per event and 40-minute sessions.
• Vimeo is an alternative if you are looking for video hosting; its free plan includes one seat and 1 GB storage.
• Zoho Webinar has a free plan for 20 attendees and 60-minute webinars, a higher free attendee limit than LiveWebinar.
• WebinarIgnition is another webinar option, with an Unlimited plan priced at $49 a month for unlimited registrations, attendees and webinars.

Verdict

LiveWebinar is a strong fit for small teams and creators who value browser access, reusable webinar formats, audience tools and paid-event support. Its main advantage is the breadth of webinar workflows in one platform; its main drawback is that all listed paid plans short of custom-priced Enterprise remain capped at 25 attendees. Choose it for feature-rich small-room webinars, but look elsewhere if your regular events need a larger audience without an Enterprise quote.
