BigMarker vs. BrightTALK

Being a user of BigMarker I am fully satisfied
with their program and the features they are offering to me. Clear UI with easy
to use interface helping me a lot to set up everything in minutes. Definitely
recommend this masterpiece to other business to use it for effective virtual
collaborations.

We've found the suggested training to be pretty spot on, and the speakers have been good so far. The pacing is usually good to slightly fast. Most professionals don't have time to take a couple of hours a week on training or learning about new products, so we've also found the length of the meetings to be very good. The suggested classes/webinars have been good so far-- too many companies ask you to fill out a questionnaire about what you use or what you're interested in and then pigeonhole in those couple of suggestions forever. So far, we have not seen that with BrightTALK.

• The biggest drawback that I am facing for a long time is that BigMarker is not very effective while integrating with other third-party software [in my experience]. It was not an easy task to set up with other meeting platforms that I was using already in the organization.
• Secondly, the audio starts lagging, and sometimes the audience cannot listen to the audio which [I feel] needs to be fixed on an urgent basis.

Incentivized

• The user interface can be a bit tricky at times, as you have to dig down to find certain information. However, it is a robust interface and the information is there.
• Some features, like adding questions or resources, have cut-off windows, so you cannot make last-minute additions or changes.
• The bridge occasionally drops speakers, and this can be disconcerting to presenters. However, it does not happen too often.

BigMarker is a great piece of software and provides a good solution for our live streaming service.

Its very usable and due to its full feature set, we are able to quote on jobs quickly knowing that BigMarker is capable of meeting the clients needs. We find the remote guest feature to be somewhat limiting, but only because we are looking to provide very polished video to our clients, we use external software to stream direct to BigMarker.

BrightTalk has an excellent usability and is intuitive with its design. The registration of events is secure, and the connectivity to webinars is seamless

The support staff is exceptionally doing well. They
are always available for the solution of queries. Listen to my queries very
patiently and provide a solution of problems in the limited time duration and
solve the query. The technical staff is also working well. I recently faced some
errors in handling the progress of tasks and I send the feedback to their team,
they responded to that feedback and corrected these errors and bugs immediately.
Always welcome to feedback them about their platform.

We have not had to contact support.

None of the other software we tested before choosing BigMarker had a full feature list that worked so well for events. Zoom, which is the go to software for many of our competitors was very limiting, although there was some effort needed to educate our client that there was a better way. We also use Vimeo, but this is only for simple live stream video delivery, Vimeos Q and A and other features are very basic in comparison. GoToWebinar doesn't compete

Incentivized

BrightTalk has an improved webinar repository and has an excellent use of registration for live events that allows for strict moderation of who may be joining the events. I selected BrightTalk because it seems more secure and provides an ease of use when utilizing it for registration and webinar purposes.
