Livestorm ranks #1 of the 5 tools we recommend in Webinars & events (November 2026 re-test). The full field:
| Rank | Tool | Score | Pricing (approx) |
|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | Livestorm | 8.5/10 | free tier, paid from ~$79/mo |
| #2 | Goldcast | 8.4/10 | custom |
| #3 | Demio | 8.2/10 | from ~$59/mo |
| #4 | StreamYard | 8.1/10 | free tier, paid from ~$25/mo |
| #5 | Zoom Sessions | 7.9/10 | from ~$99/mo |
Livestorm holds #1 at 8.5/10 while Goldcast sits #2 at 8.4/10 in our Webinars & events testing. The case for Goldcast: B2B event marketing platform — webinars to field events with content repurposing built in. Its honest limit: Enterprise lean — casual webinar programs won't justify it.
Livestorm holds #1 at 8.5/10 while Demio sits #3 at 8.2/10 in our Webinars & events testing. The case for Demio: Marketing webinars made simple — the tool for teams that want results without a production crew. Its honest limit: Simple is the ceiling too — big productions outgrow it.
Livestorm holds #1 at 8.5/10 while StreamYard sits #4 at 8.1/10 in our Webinars & events testing. The case for StreamYard: Live production for social — multistream polished shows to LinkedIn, YouTube and X from a browser. Its honest limit: No registration funnel — it's a broadcast tool, not a lead machine.
Livestorm holds #1 at 8.5/10 while Zoom Sessions sits #5 at 7.9/10 in our Webinars & events testing. The case for Zoom Sessions: The default everyone can attend — with marketing features now bolted on well enough to count. Its honest limit: Marketing depth still trails the specialists.
Livestorm is built for B2B marketing teams. Its core strength: recurring demand-gen webinars that feed pipeline reporting. In practice that means no-download attendee experience, automations and email sequences, and CRM-grade analytics — the capabilities that earned its 8.5/10.
Livestorm's honest limit, printed in every review we publish: Pricing scales with active contacts faster than you expect. If that describes you, start with Goldcast or Demio — the full field is in our Webinars & events ranking.
