BigMarker

BigMarker is perfect for my webinar needs as a small business owner

Kommentit: Very good! I really don't have any complaints based on my own usage. It's a really smart tool that makes hosting virtual events fairly painless.

Hyvät puolet:

BigMarker just makes sense. It's not hard to get started and set up, while several other webinar platforms are a bit convoluted. There are a lot of great features in terms of the full management of a webinar's lifecycle: the ability to easily set up a sign up page, email automations, and so on. I love that your initial landing page link can also be used to share a webinar replay if you decide to record it. You can integrate BigMarker with other tools using Zapier and other built-in integrations. I like that you can also create evergreen webinars that don't ever have to premiere as a live event if you don't want them to! It's also worth noting that their support is very responsive and helpful with every query I've thrown their way.

Huonot puolet:

Some of the cohosts of my webinars have reported issues using the interface when we're going live together. I can't say that I've necessarily had the same experience but it's definitely worth noting since the best tools have the least friction for those who aren't as familiar with the tool as the administrator.

The best way to conduct webinars and online classes!

Kommentit: It is a great product that allowed us to scale our private education business significantly.

Hyvät puolet:

We love the assured delivery and quality of the service! Their customer support is also always prompt, patient, and helpful.

Huonot puolet:

Camera views to students may lag sometimes, but the audio remains smooth throughout. But there could be other issues with users' internet connection speed too.

Unfortunately looking for another webinar platform

Kommentit: It's a mixed bag. I like that they are making improvements but my biggest issue is the user experience with microphones and sadly there has been no fix for that. I wish there was an option to click somewhere and see what attendees are seeing, which would be helpful when you're trying to coach them through the process of turning on their microphones. If it weren't for the microphone problem I probably wouldn't be looking elsewhere.

Hyvät puolet:

We've used BigMarker for more than a year. After trying out several options, I was directed to go with the cheapest. I believe the price has gone up since then. I know that they must be continually working on it because I keep seeing more features added, such as automatically muting my microphone when the video plays. They are pretty quick about getting back with me when I have questions (although it doesn't always resolve an issue). I do like the recording feature, especially since they have added the ability to trim the video right on the website. I also like that you can download the recorded video of the webinar.

Huonot puolet:

We do webinars monthly, usually more often than that. Setting up a webinar is frustrating because several options are offered without explanation of what each option entails. Worst is the attendee experience. I put the mic icon + instructions on our presentation's first slide, but attendees always have problems finding it and we waste several minutes trying to do so, even with a dedicated web person at the controls. Also last time I was presenting at home, with another person presenting from the office. I realized when viewing the video that when my connection dropped, the webinar stalled. Also attendees had to figure out how to turn off webcast mode (I had not set up the webinar to be in webcast mode so I was surprised this was necessary) before being able to turn their microphones on and then there was such an enormous echo that no one could understand each other. This is problematic because we do a lot of custom solutions and I really wanted to hear from the customers about what problems they needed to solve. The chat feature works nicely but not everyone wants to type. In contrast, we use Slack internally and you can easily turn on your mic or other features. When I contacted customer support, they did get back with me fairly quickly but didn't really address the problem to my satisfaction. When I sent another email, they just cut and pasted the response from the first email, so it was frustrating, especially because I have found their responses helpful in the past.

The Best Webinar Software I have ever used

Kommentit: Fantastic

Hyvät puolet:

We were the early adopters of BigMarker. It works seamlessly and support has been great. It works great for automated webinars.

Huonot puolet:

I never had any issues from the beginning.

Excellent webinar platform and easy to use

Kommentit: Overall very happy with the platform. Use it for recordings (for virtual summits) and webinars/webinar series. Straight forward to use and good recordings.

Hyvät puolet:

Straight forward webinar and webinar series set up with many customizable options. Good quality audio and video recordings as well as live chat for interactive back channel discussions and Q&A. Good price/quality ratio.

Huonot puolet:

Some platforms offer completely customizable landing pages and more, but it really depends on how much customization you need and are willing to invest in. Otherwise, no real issues.

Intuitive platform that the big names use

Kommentit: Advanced but simple to use product that guides you through each step.

Hyvät puolet:

It just does what it says it will. For my plan we run webinars and we have advanced features like polls, chats, Q&A s and offers we can use but they don't get in the way if we don't.

Huonot puolet:

Nicer landing pages with more control for webinar sales pages would be great.

Good webinar and meeting platform

Hyvät puolet:

This is an established platform used in many business and universities. You can brand your webinars and events. There is good support, constant improvement, and no software to download. Update: Two years later and I would still recommend.

Huonot puolet:

Compared to competitors, platform is less intuitive/user friendly. Support is helpful.I'm still learning features.

Reliable Webinar, Events and Meeting app

Kommentit: Have many evergreen webinars running flawlessly, so very good

Hyvät puolet:

It is a all in one , in one app we have Webinar's, Streaming, Events and meetings. It has the most functions on any other app I have used and one of the most reliable. The Evergreen webinars are one of the best ways to get leads automatically.Also the updates keep coming

Huonot puolet:

none actually , but if I were to be picky , the huge amount of features take a bit of time to be utilised to their full potential - though they have good support and help articlies.

A star for my upcoming webinars

Hyvät puolet:

Its easy to use and has and affordable price. With a nice stack of feauters included

Huonot puolet:

I cant say I have seen any so far, but the interface might be more intuitive

BigMarker Is Incredible!

Hyvät puolet:

BigMarker was super helpful during the pandemic to be able to host my meetings and webinars! It allowed me to streamline the process!

Huonot puolet:

There was nothing I didn't like about BigMarker. Just make sure you use strong internet connection.

The best online meeting and webinar platform out there

Kommentit: Overall we have a great experience using bigmarker and use it for all our digital meetings as well as for webinars. It is a great, feature rich platform and the team never disapoints and keeps on improving at great speed. So over time bigmarker is getting better and better and we enjoy using it more and more.

Hyvät puolet:

Bigmarker is great. Most I like that it is completely customizable. The settings for a webinar are amazing. Everything can be as you want it to be. Also the feature richness of Bigmarker is a huge advantage. No extra tools for polls, questionaires, evergreen webinars, whiteboard, digital meeting rooms, etc. Especially the ability to send an offer pop up or slide in to your viewers is genius. Even more so for a prerecorded webinar. It can be basically your 24/7 live sales webinar and at the end they get directly an offer presented. This really increases conversions for us.

Huonot puolet:

Sometimes it lags a bit and it is not as fluent as zoom. I just sometimes wish it would be as smooth as zoom, which it is not. Also it has a learning curve. The advantage of having everything as you like also means you need to take the time to set up everything and learn once how bigmarker works. But once you did this and created some templates, it makes it quite easy. If you want something fast, where you do not need to know what you are actually working with, bigmarker is not for you.

Professional and Powerful Platform

Kommentit: I really like the service and look forward to doing more with it, as my business plan is to create more online events in the near future.

Hyvät puolet:

BigMarker is a perfect platform for those interested in having a swiss army knife-style service, capable of hosting quick meetings, evergreen webinars, o-learning events, etc. It feels like a big league, yet it is accessible to smaller organizations. The developers have created amazing features to suit every level of business. I highly recommend this platform for those looking for serious solutions to online sales and training purposes. You can create recurring events, on-demand, live stream, and quick informal meetings. The Support team is extremely helpful.

Huonot puolet:

It can take a bit of time to get everything set up and fine-tuned, because there is so much available to use in creating a professional experience. However, this is not really a con for those who really want a quality presentation platform with all the bells and whistles. Once you have your ideal setups in place, you can duplicate templates to edit new versions.

Excellent webinar tool, especially for monetizing webinars of all types (live, evergreen, etc). ❤️

Kommentit: Clients love the experience. Very user friendly. I LOVE it! I've tried a lot of webinar tools (including Zoom webinars) and BigMarker is just a better experience and built for marketing and sales.

Hyvät puolet:

Powerful leadgen and sales features built directly into the webinar suite

Huonot puolet:

There are a lot of options to customize, so sometimes it feels slightly overwhelming. But, once you have "template" webinars set up, they are easy to duplicate so you never have to worry about the settings again.

Incredible product and constantly updated

Kommentit: I wanted to make an online course but didn't know where to start. With Bigmarker, I was able to create a professional online course with amazing webinars in a matter of minutes. I didn't have to hire anyone or learn any complicated software. It was so easy and affordable, I was able to create a second course in just a couple of days!

Hyvät puolet:

This tool is one of the most advanced and well-designed tools for creating webinars that I've ever come across. The platform itself is easy to use and you can create amazing Webinar without any previous video experience. The best part is that Bigmarker is constantly updating and evolving their tools to help you create even better webinars. I really love the way it makes my webinars look professional, and I love that it has a focus on the users and on improving the webinar experience.

Huonot puolet:

Bigmarker has an intuitive interface, but when you start you can get lost, as it has many functions, and many features that take some time to get used to, but when you get familiar it is very easy to create webinars, it has options to create templates, which facilitates the work.

I really liked this app

Kommentit: Experience has been very good so far I'm getting to know it now I'm enjoying it I hope it continues like this I have nothing to complain about

Hyvät puolet:

I like him a lot I'm getting to know him and I'm liking him a lot

Huonot puolet:

For now I don't have to complain I'm liking it a lot I'm getting to know it now

Good all in one solution for live streams

Kommentit: This is my all in one solution for my live streams, webinars and even hyprid events.

Hyvät puolet:

The user interface is easy to understand, everything could be set up well as a non-technician. I have had no problems so far and can only recommend the product.

Huonot puolet:

I have not had any problems with the use so far.

A complete solution for online events

Kommentit: Bigmarker allows me to promote my brand directly, and record a webinar once and play it multiple times for different audience.

Hyvät puolet:

The most important aspect for me is that I can manage all aspects related to my online events. I can set up meetings, send invitations, control attendance, customize my audience's experience during the webinar and carry out actions to drive engagement. I can also do all this from the browser and my audience does not need to download anything to their computer.

Huonot puolet:

You need to have a minimum connection speed, otherwise you cannot use the platform.

A Comprehensive and User-Friendly Platform for Virtual Events

Kommentit: BigMarker is a reliable and effective platform for hosting and attending virtual events. It is particularly well-suited for businesses and organizations looking to host professional-grade webinars or conferences online.

Hyvät puolet:

BigMarker offers a variety of webinar types, including automated and evergreen options. It also allows users to stream their events to YouTube and Facebook.For virtual events, I particularly enjoy BigMarker's MeetingSpace feature that allows creating custom meeting rooms for networking

Huonot puolet:

Getting started is easy, but BigMarker has many more features. Learning how to take advantage of them all takes some time.

Simplifying the process into a smooth, no stress experience for attendees.

Kommentit: We have been using BigMarker since the closure of in-person events due to a possible outbreak of COVID, and it has been a reliable and effective solution to provide quality service to our online live event participants in just about any browser-enabled environment.

Hyvät puolet:

Bigmarker is a virtual event platform that allows you to create a detailed agenda, organize the event, send out invites and share documents all in one place. This service has pretty much everything that we need for our events and it offers a ton of cool features that help us get the job done. The thing I like the most is how the service itself is so easy to use, but at the same time it offers a ton of features that we can take advantage of to make our virtual events more fun.

Huonot puolet:

The lack of a desktop app or software like Zoom, Teams, or Bluejeans because this is browser-only solution

Stand out with confidence

Kommentit: Bigmarker is a great, powerful, feature-rich tool that is a must for a professional online presence. I'm happy to be using it and will recommend it to others with no hesitation.

Hyvät puolet:

There are different types of webinars, including on-demand, evergreen, series, live, automated and 24-7. The options are awesome for creating different types of events for different needs and great for repurposing events to keep engaging audiences.

Huonot puolet:

Because Bigmarker is so powerful, it can be a bit overwhelming and has a bit of a learning curve. It would be good to have an "easier" mode. Maybe turn on a "basic" mode with the basic features required for people to just quickly dive in to start a webinar and to fine-tune features if required by switching back to an advanced mode. It would be nice to have more popup info tips that show when you hover over a feature. This would be helpful just when selecting which type of webinar to run, instead of needing to click into each to read the longer description. Would also be good to have a "save" button when creating a webinar. For example for on-demand webinars, one can return later to upload video. Have a quick recording mode to record the camera/screen/slide for creating on-demand webinars.

Solid choice for Webinars and much more.

Hyvät puolet:

I appreciate how robust the platform is. BigMarker is more than just a webinar tool. I don't feel like my business will ever outgrow the capabilities of this software.

Huonot puolet:

At first, I was intimidated by the abundant features and the time it would take to master everything. But I just concentrated on learning the features that I needed first.

Feature Rich webinar platform I've ever found

Kommentit: My overall experience with Bigmarker is great.

Hyvät puolet:

What do I like most about this software? It's really hard to tell. I like every single feature this software provides. The best part is, new features are constantly added. If I must pick one, it is the automation and the flexibility to choose between live webinars, recurring webinars, or evergreen webinars.

Huonot puolet:

It always checks if my network works well for the webinar. It's a good feature. However, my network is not always good, resulting in a false signal for this check. Fortunately, most of the time I can just ignore it when the network doesn't pass the check.

The most practical and powerful software I've ever used

Kommentit: BigMarker is the software I have used the most in the last 2 years, it has been very powerful for my business, people love to participate in a meeting that happens perfectly and has several features such as screen sharing, questions and answers among other features that make a big difference of the tool.

Hyvät puolet:

The ease of broadcasting your meetings and the amount of powerful features simply lacks nothing.

Huonot puolet:

They don't have a native android app. this makes us always have to depend on the browser

Reliable and flexible webinar service

Kommentit: Big Marker has kickstarted my online course career and I 100% recommend this professional platform to any serious user.

Hyvät puolet:

This software has the perfect marriage with HeySummit and allows me to run an evergreen summit with the amazing features of a full webinar service. I also use it for one to one meetings/coaching sessions that are recorded for the student to rewatch privately. The ease in changing cameras, screen sharing and drawing, plus playing videos is great. Adding handouts is a no brainer with reporting on how many download these a great resource. The support from the principal of this platform who personally contacted me to ensure I had it setup correctly at a particularly personal and stressful time was humbling. Above and beyond service at that time.

Huonot puolet:

COVID I'm sure has impacted some of their support. Only once a question had to be escalated to tech team - everything else was user error.

An amazing tool

Hyvät puolet:

It brands easily so you look like a pro straight away

Huonot puolet:

It's hard to say, it's pretty good. I guess all video tools can be slow if you have a bad internet connection.
