Why Livestorm is the best Crowdcast alternative

Livestorm is browser-based and universally compatible with any device you choose. In addition, Crowdcast does not need to be downloaded and is accessible from the browser of any device.

Livestorm and Crowdcast have some important promotion features in common, like built-in landing pages, customizable emails, and custom branding. Crowdcast uses one intelligent link for all aspects of an event like its replay, registration page, and landing page which expands reach.

Livestorm lets audiences engage with emoji reactions and has a private chat for organizers, unlike Crowdcast. Both Livestorm and Crowdcast have chat, poll, CTA, and Q&A that you can use during your webinar to engage your audience.

Livestorm and Crowdcast have a host of analytics that make it easy to measure and plan your webinars. For example, you can create channels on Crowdcast where users can follow a companies' webinar content. With Livestorm, it’s easy to enrich participant data to get more out of your webinars.

With Livestorm, you can choose among hundreds of integrations to tailor your webinars to meet your exact needs. You can get more out of your Crowdcast experience by adding native integrations like Drip, Stripe, or Patreon.

Livestorm's Public API makes it easy for developers to customize and streamline workflows or build native integrations that connect to CRM, sales, or marketing platforms. Crowdcast does not have an API for third parties to develop native integrations, making it much less customizable than Livestorm.

For both platforms, you can integrate thousands of apps through Zapier. Crowdcast does not have an integration marketplace, unlike Livestorm who lists all integrations in a comprehensive App Marketplace.

Livestorm's free plan is forever free and lets you try all of the same features that are found in the paid plans. Crowdcast doesn't have a free version, but you can sign up for a two-week-long free trial limited to ten attendees and capped at thirty-minute sessions.

Livestorm Pro is $99 a month and includes everything needed for online meetings, webinars or virtual events. Bundled in this price are analytics, integrations, on-demand webinars, automation, and more. Crowdcast splits these features between a few plans, making you pay more to access them.

For example, Crowdcast Lite, which is $45 a month, includes session analytics and the Zapier integration. Crowdcast Pro is priced at $89 a month and lets you customize registration fields, something that is present in all Livestorm plans, even the free version.

Livestorm Enterprise plan lets you stream to up to 3,000 live attendees, among other perks. Crowdcast Enterprise plans allow you to stream to 1,000 live attendees.
