WebinarJam Reviews

Sometimes, browser-based webinar services can be limited in the features they offer, but WebinarJam has everything you need to run a successful webinar. Depending on your subscription, you’re able to host an unlimited number of webinars for up to 5,000 attendees in high definition at 720p with the ability to have up to six presenters. All of this is enhanced by live chat, polls, questions and answers, file sharing, and screen sharing. Webinars can be streamed via WebinarJam’s website or broadcast directly to YouTube or Facebook.

If you’re interested in monetizing your webinars, WebinarJam has plenty of features to help. First, you can charge for entry on your webinar’s registration page. But the best bit is how flexible the options for your webinar promotional buttons are. You can customize every aspect of your offer, including broadcasting real-time sales, adding scarcity, and providing a timer for extra incentive.

One particularly useful feature of WebinarJam is the panic button. This is ideal if you’re ever having any connection issues – a problem for anyone who regularly hosts webinars. All you need to do if you’re having trouble is press the panic button and WebinarJam will create an entirely new room and automatically transfer all of your attendees over.

WebinarJam allows you to record your webinars with a maximum limit of four hours. Recordings can be set to begin automatically, and you’ll be ready to share your finished webinar right away. One helpful feature of the recordings is that viewers can ask you questions long after your presentation is over. If your webinar is time-sensitive, then you can also add expiration dates to it. Public webinars can be accessed through WebinarJam’s on-demand page – a community of over 8,000 other creators.

EverWebinar is the company’s star for on-demand webinars. Although usually provided separately, it’s possible to add this solution to your account from the Basic plan onwards, allowing you to run your recorded webinars on autopilot 24/7.

When it comes to integrations, WebinarJam has you covered. To contact your attendees, there are a huge number of email autoresponder integrations to choose from, including MailChimp, AWeber, and GetResponse. For everything else, WebinarJam integrates with Zapier, giving you everything you need to boost your webinar marketing.

Setting up a webinar with WebinarJam is straightforward. Before you even get started, you’ll be given a quick tutorial with explanations for each feature. However, it’s likely you won’t even need a tutorial as the WebinarJam dashboard is intuitive and easy to navigate.

When you want to set up a webinar, you first have to choose between express or full configuration. As the name suggests, the express configuration allows you to create a webinar quickly – in less than a minute, in fact. Although this is much quicker, you won’t be able to fine-tune every aspect of your webinar like you would with the full configuration, which allows you to really add your personal touch.

Webinars can start immediately, be scheduled for a certain time, or run constantly. The last option is useful for regular webinar hosts, as it offers an unchanging URL branded with your company name that is ready to go at any time. There are other options you can access from the full configuration as well, like adding integrations and setting up webinar payments.

It’s important to have a secure webinar. After all, you don’t want unexpected guests or hackers using it as an entry point. But don’t worry, WebinarJam ensures your webinars are secure. First, it’s possible to keep webinars unlisted and password-protected to prevent anyone else from joining. Similarly, recorded webinar links are assigned randomly generated and totally unique URLs with over 30 character keys so no one can guess them.

WebinarJam uses SSL/TLS encryption to keep connections secure and all data protected. This includes encrypting passwords, integrations, and API credentials.

Since WebinarJam is a browser-based webinar service, you can attend webinars on any device with an up-to-date browser. However, if you’re hosting, WebinarJam recommends you use Chrome on a computer for the best possible performance – although you shouldn’t experience any difficulties with Firefox or Safari. You can also make use of WebinarJam’s API, which has a helpful guide for the entire process on the company’s website.

There are four WebinarJam plans to choose from, each supporting a different maximum number of attendees and hosts and providing different webinar lengths. However, it’s important to mention that all subscriptions offer unlimited webinars. It’s also possible to choose between monthly and yearly billing cycles, with the latter providing up to a 24% discount.

Prices start at $39 per month with the Starter. It’s the perfect plan for small webinars, supporting up to 100 attendees, one host, and one-hour-long webinars. In addition to increasing attendee and host support (500 and 2, respectively) and increasing webinar length to two hours, the Basic plan also comes with attendee spotlights and automated webinars for $79 per month.

On the higher end, you can opt for Professional for as low as $229 per month to host 3-hour-long webinars for up to 2,000 attendees with four hosts. Professional also comes with the always-on live room and panic button. Finally, Enterprise costs a whopping $379 per month, supporting up to 5,000 attendees, six hosts, and webinars as long as four hours. It also provides a control panel to easily manage your team’s webinars, which can be up to 25 additional team members.

WebinarJam accepts payments from all major credit cards, and every purchase comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. There’s also a 14-day trial you can use, which costs $1 to access. It should be noted that when you cancel either the trial or a subscription, you’ll no longer be able to use the service even if you have time remaining.

If you need any help using WebinarJam, you can get in touch with customer support either by submitting a ticket or through live chat. Unfortunately, the live chat isn’t available 24/7, and you can only get in touch from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. – a fairly small window.

Alternatively, you can get support over social media through WebinarJam’s Facebook and Twitter pages. Facebook is perhaps the best contact method, as there is also an official user group where you can get assistance from other WebinarJam users.

The WebinarJam website has an in-depth documentation page that guides you through every aspect of the service. The guides are clearly written and include images and videos, so you’ll have no problem understanding all of WebinarJam’s features.
