BrightTALK
BrightTalk is well suited for those who cannot always attend live webinars, and can browse through many uploaded webinars. It integrates well with other organizations and provides an ease for what your organization might want to promote. I believe BrightTalk would be best suited for companies with a large employee base.

Cons
BrightTALK
  • Our sphere is healthcare and I would appreciate even more customization to this sector.
  • Sometimes a shorter webinar would be preferred, an hour is a long time in today's demanding marketplace.
  • More of the local live events, love these.

  • The Presenter 'Pods' could do with tips to explain that these can be repositioned.
  • The questions/polls have room for improvement.

Alternatives Considered
BrightTALK
GoToMeeting is less expensive but does not provide access to a database of users or a good platform to showcase recorded webinars in a channel. BrightTalk is created more as a marketing and content hub so is better for marketing activities.

Products such as GoToWebinar are great, but they never truly met our expectations or requirements. We used them for years, but the lack of audience engagement was poor, both in terms of when actually in the webinar and when promoting it. The most annoying feature was the fact the process was disjointed - to watch the webinar, you had to leave the landing page, which was massively frustrating.
