Alternatives to LiveWebinar

{"intro": "LiveWebinar combines live, automated, and on-demand webinars with recording, registration pages, polls, Q&A, breakout rooms, chat, whiteboards, certificates, ticketing, payment processing, and social broadcasting. Screen sharing, HD recording, engagement tools, CRM connections, embedding, webhooks, and an advanced API support presentations and custom workflows. It runs in a browser across web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, and also works on Smart TVs and conferencing systems without viewer downloads.\n\nIts lifetime free account needs no credit card, but allows five attendees and 30-minute sessions. Paid plans start at $25.58/mo with annual billing, there is no free trial, and room sizes run from 25 to 1,000 attendees, with larger rooms reserved for Enterprise customers. Alternatives can change the trade-off: some raise audience capacity, some focus on scheduling or video production, and some narrow the webinar format.
