ON24
We have been using On24 for consumer-facing webinars as we are a B-2-C business and I find that it works very well. I know that many other companies also use this for B-2-B marketing, and I could imagine that it would work well in those scenarios as well. We use On24 for everything from the first contact with a lead to converting an existing lead to a client.

  • StreamShark has an excellent live support model, which gives us real-time support on live stream productions. Another feature we like is the Okta SSO integration. This makes it simple to manage access to the videos and streams.
  • Our account manager, James Broberg, is an absolute pleasure to work with. He clearly has our goals in mind when he suggests the new features in our bi-weekly meeting.
  • Additionally, the StreamShark support team, namely, Yudong, Robert, and Aakanksha drive our requests to completion in a timely manner.
  • The look and feel of the GUI is user-friendly.

Cons
ON24
  • We always have issues with the leaderboard in virtual conference manager not showing results in real-time (complaint from attendees)
  • Doesn't always work with CRMs to transfer reg into virtual conference manager - has been an ongoing issue the IT team at ON24 can't figure out with our account

ON24 is everything we expected and everything we needed. It's simple to use, extremely customizable, and scales very easily. The integration to our CRM makes ON24 major lead generator for our sales team from our established webinars series. We can automate lead delivery to our sales team as well. If anything, we will look to expand our partnership in the future.

Usability
ON24
97% of our attendees say it is the best trainings they have every attended. But they other 3% have a horrible experience (while watching the event live) interesting fact. On24 uses two different encoders for live vs OnDemand. I have never had issues with the On-Demand experience. My only complaints come during live events

Reliability and Availability
ON24
ON24 is always available when I have a question about a new feature, if I'm having issues during a live webinar, or if I'm having issues with a webinar on the backend. Our client support specialist, Heather Haines, has always been incredibly consistent with getting me the answers I need when I need them.

Performance
ON24
Loading depends on how large the files in the webinar for us - sometimes it takes up to an hour to upload and that impacts the loading when the webcast is playing. Overall I'm happy with the performance, however if integrated with other systems it does tend to slow down the process

Support Rating
ON24
ON24 support is really good with the 24/5 support chat line, where someone actually responds within 30 seconds. The customers success team is also really good and our rep is very helpful with all our questions. Whenever we have more technical questions, she will bring on a IT designer or a tech specialist on our calls for additional comments and help.

We had a few training's, which were broken up, and focused on specific areas of how to use the platform. Mostly though, a lot of it is just dedicating your time to learning and exploring what the possibilities are for enhancing your webinars

Alternatives Considered
ON24
We moved from GoTo Webinar around 3 years ago and at the time it was a tool that served the purpose of webinars but it didn't have a deep level of functionality or customisation which we were looking to grow into. ON24 has widgets and screens you can interact with as well as allowing all presenters to enter the presenter view and share the same set of controls without being clunky and having to change presenters and screenshare separate slide decks etc. ON24 also has the Simulive feature which allows us to record events and play them back as if they are live which we really like.

I had been researching different virtual event s and streaming platforms and kept coming up against the same problems. They either couldn't be branded, the signup flow added friction and would have caused drop off, or quality of the stream was poor. It was also important that I was able to get data and analytics from the stream. This meant that embedded YT live was out of the question because embedded YT don't always count the views. StreamShark Live Streaming Platform allowed for a solve for all of these problems.

Scalability
ON24
Overall, it meets our needs and we are able to do everything we need to do. However, I would not describe the tool as extremely flexible from a branding, design, capability standpoint when thinking about the level of customization allowed for the audience dashboard, although the engagement tools are nice the set up of each is quite rigid

Return on Investment
ON24
  • ON24 has allowed us to deliver meaningful pitches, promotions, and seminars to clients/audience members all year round, remotely.
  • The reporting available to us through the ON24 platform allows us to assess and review what is working and what needs adjusting with our events. This is valuable to us.
  • Using the tools available, we've doubled our audience engagement in the last 12 months, and this has allowed us to generate leads at a later stage of the "funnel."
