BigMarker

Vorteile

Bigmarker ist eine einfach zu bedienende Webinar-Plattform, mit der du interaktive Live-Webinare für dein Publikum veranstalten kannst. Die Plattform verfügt über Funktionen wie Live-Abstimmungen, Aufzeichnungen und automatische E-Mail- und SMS-Erinnerungen. Evergreen Webinar ist die beste Webinar-Software, die ich je benutzt habe. Was ich an Bigmarker Webinar so liebe, ist, dass du damit dein Wissen präsentieren und an dein Publikum weitergeben kannst. Außerdem kannst du ganz bequem Inhalte von anderen Plattformen wie YouTube und Facebook teilen. Du kannst diese Webinar-Software auch zum Teilen von Videos und Dateien verwenden. Sie ist einfach zu bedienen und du findest dich schnell zurecht, sodass du sie im Handumdrehen nutzen kannst.

Nachteile

Bigmarker bietet unglaublich viel ... dies bedeutet aber auch, dass die Lernkurve länger ist, als bei einfacherer Software.

Vorteile

+ Grösste Funktionalität
+ Verschiedenen Pricing-Möglichkeiten für meine Webinare
+ Integrationsmgölichkeiten (u.a. mit Mailchimp und Stripe - Abonmodell, Social-Medias)
+ Qualität der Webinare
+ Schneller und kompetenter Kundenservice

Nachteile

- Grosste Funktionsvielfalt, sodass nicht jeder wählbare Option sofort verständliche (Erläuterung auf rechter Maustaste wäre wünschenswert)

Vorteile

I like the control I have over the seminar and all the things I can do with it

Nachteile

Some of the people did have some issues accessing the platform

Vorteile

Big Marker is easy and quick to setup and use. Supports a wide range of features which include simple webinars to more complex online events. Has inbuilt user registration and payment collection options which makesit a powerful and complete solution to your various online streaming and conferencing needs.

Nachteile

Pricing can be made more competitive and whitelabelling can be inlcuded in the existing plans at an extra charge.

Vorteile

It appears to have all the features one would need to host life, evergreen, or hybrid events.

Nachteile

The features that are missing are critical. For one- you aren't furnished with a custom domain, meaning if you're using this for marketing purposes- you can't instal or use your Facebook pixel effectively. This is a deal breaker. The registration widgets are only compatible with their built-in, ugly AF landing pages. If you opt to use your own landing pages, it won't automatically redirect. This makes the registration process clunky and unintuitive for participants. Also, because it doesn't automatically redirect- your Meta pixel won't fire! The registration landing pages are ugly, require extensive CSS customization, and are useless because again- no ability to register the domain with your advertising account. Participants are prompted to touch the screen to start hearing the audio, but most miss this notice- it leaves a poor taste in their mouth when something doesn't work immediately and intuitively. There's zero security built-in, which means once a bot gets a hold of your URL you're flooded with bogus registrations- and if you use your own security it bypasses the block list. The analytics are NIGHTMARE with no ability to filter by date- which makes collecting KPIs a tedious manual task.

Vorteile

BigMarker is versatile--allowing you to do your choice of live, automated or blended webinars--it's easy to use, beautifully designed and totally reliable. It's a pleasure to use for us and for our attendees.

Nachteile

The only difficult thing about using BigMarker initially is getting your head around how many different types of events you can set up, in terms of Live, Automated, Evergreen, On Demand, Summit/Series etc., and what the differences are between each of them.

Vorteile

I was most impressed with the cost of BigMarker as opposed to other solutions out there. Besides the price, I like the call to action button that I can turn on in the webinar when I am pitching.

Nachteile

The virtual background is not as good as it could be. I have a good greenscreen and studio lighting so I can get away with it okay. But if the lighting isn't good it doesn't look great.

Vorteile

BigMarker is well-designed and intuitive; making it simple and pleasurable to use.
I love the potential of the product. Not only can you have one-off webinars or use the platform for simple video conferencing rooms but you can also create channels and series of multiple webinars; giving the potential of multiple revenue streams. With the automated features it also means that after initial set up there is very little ongoing maintenance saving time and effort.

Nachteile

I really can't think of anything that was difficult about BigMarker. When I set up my first room for video calls I do remember being a little unsure of how it would all work but that was down to me not having used video calls previously rather than any problem with the software. If I'm being really picky I think it might be nice to have a native Google Calendar integration rather than having to use Zapier, but as new features seem to be added every few days I wouldn't be surprised if it gets added while I'm writing this review!!

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

I never had any issues from the beginning.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

The software functions as it needs to. Much of the core, the email marketing, easy to create landing pages, etc., are super simple and quick to get up, saving us a lot of time and effort.

Nachteile

The developers seem to be perfectionists, (maybe it is a good thing, too) but things get rolled out slowly sometimes, updates, as they want to make sure that it isn't causing things to fail.

BigMarker has an easy to use interface and is a powerful webinar platform! It is easy to use, and just works! SO many others just fall apart at scale, and if there are problems (let's face it, when you do a webinar or are live there WILL be problems), the BigMarker team is ready to help!

Nachteile

It needs a good amount of bandwidth to do presentations - if you've got a lot going on... high quality cameras, file shares and videos to play it struggles without a lot of good bandwidth.

Vorteile

I've had and used BigMarker for over 4 years now, and have used it for video meetings, conducting webinars and training and using some of the recorded sessions for virtual conferences. Initial setup was easy and easy to setup and use it for recurring events. I like the customization options, and features like MeetingSpace that I can use for instant meetings with anyone by just sharing a link.

Nachteile

No cons at this time since I have been a long term user. When I started using it 4 years ago, it had a small learning curve for attendees, but that has been improved and people new to BigMarker can easily join and participate.

Vorteile

I like that it is not Zoom, allowing me to have more viewers. It is less expensive and has the bells and whistles I need.

Nachteile

It is not as user-friendly with the interface

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

Trying to run and operate a business is tough enough, trying to operate a business with clients during a pandemic is a complete uphill battle, but fortunately for me I had Big Marker to save the day. My main use for Big Marker is communication with my clients. With the ability to screen share with my clients, I can continue to help them with their business and demonstrate how to operate their business.
It is easy to use and more importantly it is easy for my clients to use when I invite then into our meetings.

Nachteile

One of the few issues I occasionally come across is the dropping out of connection during the meetings. I find if I have too many applications running at the same time it can cause lag. Support has been proactive with providing solutions and I'm confident it is a small bump in the road.

Vorteile

I have been using Bigmarker for a while now and I am hooked. Ever since I started using it, my team has noticed a huge improvement in the quality of my presentations. The best thing about Bigmarker is that you can chat privately with your audience and get instant feedback from them as you are presenting. This is ideal for those times when in-person feedback isn't possible. I highly recommend trying Bigmarker out!

Nachteile

You need to learning and study this tool for how to use and how to streaming and but the pricing depend on your audience.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

The end-user doesn't have to install any software on their end. All they need is an internet connection.

Nachteile

You need to set aside some time to figure out all the possibilities the software offers. Until today I still haven't gone through all the features it offers. Amazing really.

Vorteile

BigMarker has some great built in features that work well for virtual events and webinars. The best feature really is for evergreen webinars and the ability to trigger automations so you can have the webinar appear "full" or do other things with it for lead generation.

Nachteile

BigMarker requires a pretty beefy computer system to run and also really fast internet connection. It doesn't scale down the stream as seamlessly as Zoom because it's an in-browser experience. I'd recommend closing all the browser windows you have open except for the one for BigMarker especially if you are the host. Less so of an issue if you're attending.

Vorteile

The comprehensive full stack of features offered in one place including: attractive landing pages with easy configuration, email management, various webinar formatting e.g. evergreen webinars, HD recordings, breakout rooms, great participant interactivity and control over unwanted and negative inputs. BigMarker offers a very professional and polished look that continues to generate positive reactions from clients who enrolled in our programmes.

Nachteile

Personal meeting rooms or meeting spaces feature tends to have connectivity challenges at least for me. I would love to use it more to leverage the powerful features of BigMarker for one-on-one coaching sessions.

Vorteile

No special software needed for attendees, which makes it easy and convenient. Friendly, responsive customer service team. Quality and performance of the actual video is excellent and the auto-adjustment for low/high speed connections is great.

Nachteile

I'm not a big fan of the channels concept, but we just ignore those features. It seems like it would be very useful for other organizations, such as educators.

It's a pretty powerful platform with a lot of features. We use it for a range of things including webinars, online meetings, and podcast recording. Their support is outstanding as well.

It's great that it integrates with Hubspot.

Nachteile

The design templates when you create webinars could be improve. You also have to use multiple different image ratios instead of just one if you want to share on Facebook or other platforms. It would be easier if you just uploaded one picture and it adjust this for all the platforms and views.

we use Bigmarker to run multiple day events. The best part about it is how reliable it is.

Nachteile

It's not a one click setup. The setup takes a few minutes as it seems to provision a server just for you. But this isn't a major issue.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

It is the best all in one webinar package I have ever used. Easy, simple and reliable on all fronts.

Nachteile

There is nothing I don't enjoy about BigMarker!

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

Lo que más me ha gustado de BigMarker es su capacidad para ofrecer una experiencia de reuniones y conferencias en línea de alta calidad. La plataforma ofrece una amplia variedad de herramientas y funciones para hacer reuniones y conferencias en línea más interactivas y efectivas, como la opción de compartir pantallas, presentaciones en tiempo real y la posibilidad de hacer preguntas y respuestas en tiempo real. Además, BigMarker es fácil de usar y la interfaz es intuitiva, lo que permite a los usuarios acceder a todas las funciones importantes de manera rápida y eficiente. También me gusta la flexibilidad de la plataforma, que permite realizar reuniones y conferencias en línea desde cualquier lugar y en cualquier momento. En resumen, BigMarker es una solución innovadora y efectiva para reuniones y conferencias en línea que recomendaría a cualquier persona o negocio que busque mejorar su eficiencia en esta área.

Nachteile

Lo que menos me ha gustado de BigMarker es que algunas funciones avanzadas pueden ser un poco complicadas de configurar y utilizar, especialmente para los usuarios menos experimentados. Además, también he notado que en ocasiones, la calidad de la transmisión en línea puede ser inconsistente y algunos usuarios pueden experimentar problemas con la conexión a internet. Por último, también he notado que algunos usuarios informaron problemas con la funcionalidad de la cámara y el audio, aunque estos parecen ser casos aislados. En general, aunque BigMarker es una solución innovadora y efectiva para reuniones y conferencias en línea, todavía tiene algunos aspectos en los que puede mejorar para garantizar una experiencia más fluida y efectiva para todos los usuarios.

Vorteile

It ensures that everything is up to par before you go live, and automatically tries to keep the best quality streaming throughout the event. It also has so many amazing features that are really overlooked compared to many other similar streaming / webinar services I've tried.

Nachteile

Nothing in particular, but I think it could be a little easier to use. However, you could probably run a webinar single handed with the features set and ease of use. I just think they can make it even more easy to manage everything.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

BigMarker gives you the comfort of a luxury car where every feature is designed with attention to detail and sophistication. I like most, its automation capability with automated emails, reminders, templates for webinars in the same series, and evergreen webinars.

Nachteile

I have made some errors a few times before I actually understood how the software works. I hope there are more monthly webinars to educate users how to use the tool in more ways.

Vorteile

I run a business where I offer coaching and training sessions for students in Latin America. But I have a lot of trouble keeping my students engaged while using Zoom. 3 years ago, I found Bigmarker and decided to give it a try.

And when I noticed that Bigmarker provides me with everything I need to design, build, and execute an impactful, engaging virtual conference, I said to myself, this is what I was looking for, and ever since I kept using Bigmarker.

What I really love about this platform is that the owners are listening to us and are adding new marketing features and rapidly integrating dozens and dozens of new integrations. And on top of that BigMarker is the simplest and most affordable way to create an online event (hybrid or live).

Nachteile

In the beginning, I was overwhelmed by all the learning curbs. Trust me, this is because they have tons of features and options. I contacted support, and they guided me on every step. After a while, I got the hang of it. You need to spend time learning your way. Inside the platform, but it was worth it.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

Lots of functionality. Does almost anything you need for webinars and online presentations

Nachteile

Can't start, stop AND restart showing presentations. This is a function of GTW and it's REALLY helpful when doing a presentation live and you want to pause the screen sharing.

Also don't like the "on demand" landing pages. They don't look like the templates available for other webinar types.

These are two specific features for the way I use webinar applications...but doesn't take away from the overall functionality

The attendee interface gets rave reviews from our students. They can see each other's comments and questions in real-time. The Q&A tab has an 'up vote' feature, which allows the speaker to understand how many attendees have the same question. The analytics provided at the end of the webinar allow us to gain insight into the students and also provide necessary details for reporting continuing education to 3rd parties.

Nachteile

When recoding the webinars, there is no 'pause' feature.

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

Big Marker is designed for companies who want a reliable, consistent, secure platform to host individual and group meetings, small and large webinars, ever-green events, and live events. I've used many systems and Big Marker outperforms all of them by far. I especially appreciate the way they host recordings to make access easy, yet secure for those with approved access. You can offer memberships and monitize your offers very easily. The system is easy to administer without a need for extensive training. Big Marker is more secure than most other meeting and webinar platforms, which is very important for those of us needing a high level of confidentiality and security. Overall, I would recommend Big Marker to anyone serious about offering professional meetings and events.

Nachteile

Everything is straight-forward and easy to use. I really have nothing negative to say about Big Marker. It's been a reliable system for us.
