When to Choose Livestorm

Marketing and sales teams that need professional webinar hosting with built-in registration, analytics, and engagement tools

Livestorm is a webinar-first platform that does one thing very well: professional virtual events with registration, engagement tracking, and on-demand replays. It's not designed to compete with Zoom or Teams for daily meetings. If you run webinars regularly, it's excellent. For general meetings, look elsewhere.

Strengths

  • Purpose-built for webinars and virtual events with registration pages, landing pages, and email workflows
  • AI-powered summaries and engagement analytics for every session
  • Browser-based — no downloads needed for hosts or attendees
  • Up to 3,000 attendees on paid plans, with on-demand replay built in

Limitations

  • Expensive at $79/mo — primarily a webinar tool, not a daily meeting platform
  • Free tier is extremely limited: 10 attendees, 20-minute sessions
  • Overkill for standard internal team meetings

When to Choose Pexip

Large enterprises with existing video room infrastructure that need interoperability across platforms and self-hosted security

Pexip occupies a unique niche as the interoperability specialist. If your organization needs to connect legacy SIP/H.323 systems with modern Teams or Meet rooms, Pexip is one of the few platforms that does it well. The limited AI features and high entry cost make it a poor fit for teams seeking a primary video conferencing tool.

Strengths

  • Only Microsoft-certified Cloud Video Interop (CVI) provider that supports self-hosted deployment
  • Cross-platform interoperability — connects SIP, H.323, Teams, and Google Meet rooms seamlessly
  • Self-hosted option for organizations with strict data sovereignty requirements
  • Purpose-built for complex enterprise and government meeting room environments

Limitations

  • Limited AI features compared to mainstream consumer-facing platforms
  • No free tier and pricing is enterprise-focused — not suitable for small teams
  • Setup complexity is high — designed for IT teams, not end users
