Are there any limitations on attendee numbers?

Question

Accepted Answer

Depends entirely on your subscription plan. GoToWebinar imposes limits on the number of attendees based on the plan you choose, so you need to evaluate which plan best suits your needs.

GoToWebinar offers several pricing tiers, each with different attendee limits. For example, their basic plan typically allows for a smaller number of participants, while higher-tier plans cater to larger audiences, going up to 1,000 attendees or more depending on the subscription. This flexibility means that if you anticipate hosting webinars with a significant number of participants, you should select a plan that accommodates that.

In practice, hosting a webinar for 500 attendees would require one of their higher-tier plans. Once you've determined the right plan, managing your attendees is straightforward. GoToWebinar provides features like attendee management and registration tracking, making it easy to see who has signed up and to send out reminders. You can also engage with your attendees using the polls and Q&A features, which are particularly useful when dealing with a larger audience.

This platform works well for businesses that frequently host webinars and expect varying audience sizes. If your needs include accommodating larger groups, GoToWebinar can support that, provided you choose the correct plan.

However, the main trade-off to watch for is the cost associated with higher-tier plans, which can be a consideration for teams on a tighter budget. Also, if your audience fluctuates significantly in size, you may find yourself upgrading or downgrading plans frequently. A good next step is to evaluate your expected audience size for the foreseeable future and choose a plan that allows for that growth without incurring unnecessary costs.
