WebinarNinja

Avantages

* It is really fast to setup a webinar with webinar ninja and what attracted me to it the most is the fact there is no install on the users side unlike the likes of GoToWebinar, Zoom etc.
* Comes with landing pages and has it's own webinar directory.
* Live, evergreen and combo webinars available as well as series.
* It has all the functionality you need for your business, including offers, polls and easy to understand stats.
* I can play YouTube videos etc too in my presentation.
* Their chat support is fantastic and fast. I always feel like I have been given more the enough time to answer all my questions, even if it isn't the question I started with.
* They give regular trainings to help with building your own webinars.
* Email sequence is standard and yes to edit accordingly.
* I have always had positive feedback after my webinars.

Inconvénients

These are small things that are more I'd like to have.
* Polls all get shown together (as far as happened to me). Would be fantastic to be able to switch them on like the offers.
* I would love an on demand evergreen option, I think this is coming soon though. There is evergreen with set time and date already.
* I have had problems with running my presentation directly from powerpoint so now I just upload the slides. This is in pdf so any animation is gone. I just create extra slides to get around this though.

Avantages

What I like most is a very simple dashboard where it's pretty obvious what to do to set up a webinar. I also like that you can capture the email addresses of registrants within the software and you don't have to use a third-party autoresponder email provider. And then we have a nice Nifty you can customize your landing page which is nice as well and you can easily upload videos, pictures or link to YouTube videos as well.

Inconvénients

My least favourite thing is that you cannot test a webinar before you implement and therefore if your plan is to send paid traffic to your webinar you can't actually verify it is working before you start paying for the traffic. This is a major drawback. Also there is an additional charge from my original lifetime plan to include Facebook pixel tracking which seems like a basic feature and since they do offer it it should be included in Legacy members programs.

Avantages

It's super cheap compared to other competitors. With a standard plan you can do almost as much as with a Zoom plan, at a quarter of the cost.
It's easy to use.
It has the option to embed the registration form on your landing pages and redirect the subscribers to your own thank you page, so you can basically customize everything and install Facebook tracking pixels like you would've normally do.

Inconvénients

The audio is not the best.
The presentation upload process is super glitchy, if your presentation is a little heavy, it will take DAYS to upload it to WebinarNinja. Sometimes it stops working but it never gives you an error, so you think it's uploading but it really isn't.
The customer service is non-existent. I filled out a form two weeks ago and I'm still waiting for a reply (I'm a paying customer, not a trial user).

Pourquoi passer à WebinarNinja

Avantages

Very easy to create and deploy webinars. Way less complicated than most stuff that's out there. So if you just want to run a webinar that works without all the bells and whistles, webinarninja is a great choice.

Inconvénients

I wish there was a way to change the host name on individual webinars; the stability of the platform could be improved (still receive lots of complaints on the webinars themselves when volume or video goes out, or they can't log on b/c they're on some browser other than Chrome on a desktop); would love to see post webinar email sequence integration (like the reminder emails, but that go out after the webinar is complete, so I don't have to use a separate email marketing system to send those emails)

Avantages

I love that WebinarNinja is always improving upon their product. I've used it for about 2 years now and love it. They also provide educational webinars to help you give amazing webinars and understand how to reach your goals using their software. It is soo easy to use from start to finish and I have never had an issue running a webinar.

Inconvénients

Honestly nothing, but if I have to list something it doesn't integrate directly with Mailerlite the email marketing system I use, however I am able to integrate it with Zapier, so it's not really an issue.

I grew up with Webinininja. As with allm the beginning is bumpy ... but the customer service has always been great

Inconvénients

It was unstable at the beginning, the webinars broke off in the middle and I did not come to my own event anymore.Unfortunately I can not stream on Facebook

Avantages

We thought it would make for a better user experience for attendees.

Inconvénients

We had to use Zoom for our webinar. Went forward without a hitch.
Building a registration page for a panel of speakers, was tough, even for someone who can code.
There is no way to edit their GDPR opt in, afte consulting our expert in bp, it was not fit for purpose. Support team didn't offer any solutions.
They had a limited number of people you can host with, this was somewhere in the small print. There were many opportunities in the system to make this clear.

How easy it was to use. With a few clicks I had a webinar up and running. I thought it would be much harder, but WebinarNinja made it as easy as I think it could possible be.

Inconvénients

Early on the user interface had an outdated look and feel. That has gotten much better over time.

Pourquoi passer à WebinarNinja

Avantages

I liked the upgrades they just keep getting better. The option to add videos, the academy now and so many perks i love it.

Inconvénients

It's not intuitive. If you haven't logged in, in a while you may forget how to set up a webinar. That means watching the how to video again. Time gone.

Avantages

WebinarNinja gets you started with webinars quickly. They have all the email sequences created. All you need to do is set the webinar information, and you're good to go. Then, as you have time, you can customize all the emails, registration page, and thank you page. The best part of this software is the initial set-up time is less than 5 minutes.

Inconvénients

I'm having trouble thinking of what I like least about this software. They've designed it so that you can use your webinars as a marketing tool.

Avantages

It's very easy to set up. You can get a webinar going within a few minutes. The interface is reasonably easy to navigate. They are constantly tweaking it to make it better. Good integration with ConvertKit, which is the back end I use for email. Sound and video are great. Sharing stuff and sending out emails is a breeze. Generally pretty easy to use.

Inconvénients

Sometimes the UI can be tricky, so if you're new to the software, you can waste a lot of time learning how to use it. Like the grey menu items hiding in the left-hand vertical bar with barely enough contrast to be seen against the slightly darker grey background. Or the totally non-intuitive choice of putting the "Edit" and "Clone" options for a webinar (arguably the two most used ones) behind a barely visible grey three-dot icon above the "Options" drop-down, instead of putting it all under "Options" OR having a visible button that just says "Edit", 'cause that's the #1 thing I will want to do with my webinar!
The UI/UX once you're inside the studio is also a bit mystifying. It's not entirely clear how to do simple things, like seeing how many people are on the webinar -- still haven't figured that one out.
The UI for the outgoing email reminders can also be a bit baffling. There's no bulk edit option, or "delete" option to get rid of emails you don't want to go out so they're not even on the list anymore. There's also no option to rearrange things and change their sequence so they're in nice, pretty chronological order as they go from top to bottom. The functionality still works fine, but from an aesthetic UI/UX perspective, this is suboptimal.
It also has a higher failure rate on the user side than some other software I've used. About 5% of people who were super eager to get on the webinar said they had no sound or video, and there was no way of troubleshooting.

Avantages

I was looking for an all in one webinar platform for my business. I had done my research and was happy to move forward with the yearly purchase price of $468.00 on September 4th, 2020. I paid immediately and in full to get access to the templates and bonuses and offers, so I waived the trial period. What a mistake. I have had nothing but unresolved issues for the last 3 weeks.

Inconvénients

My first LIVE webinar was set. Let's start with the link to the webinar-for many folks it did not work and they received an error message. I was told it was THEIR browser and to have them try the link in an incognito window-it worked, but how many people did I lost to that? During multiple LIVE tests which were private-the camera, microphone or screen crapped out one by one or not at all on different tests. I was told in the CHAT-no phone number only a CHAT or BOT.....It was my internet...This had NEVER HAPPENED. Yeah, right. After multiple tests with a tech person on the test to see the issues-the screen went dark. They'll work on it. The day of the LIVE webinar, I asked a tech (the chat window took 4 minutes to load each time I went in from the number of times and issues I had try to address). The worst that could happen-DID. I was LIVE and within 2 minutes my camera crapped out. My microphone was not working and the screen went blank. BLANK>the tech asked me to restart the webinar-so after apologizing I did. The same issues continued throughout the 48 minutes. THIS WAS A COMPLETE TECHNICAL DISASTER. The replay was there in all of it malfunctioning glory. Everyone apologized. This has never happened. Yeah right. It has taken more than 48 hours and chats to find out that all of the background noise, microphone and screen issues MAY be due to "packet issues and bit rate loss"-WHAT? they have to reach out to another developer to see if they can fix it. This is day 3.

Avantages

That I was able to actually get it done and come out with a product that worked! The customer service team helped me so much when I got started a few years ago and they are always there for me. With your help I learned to upload videos, do a live webinar and use the chat feature. I've been able to keep track of who attends my events's, etc. The software walks you through the process and it's easy to follow. I haven't used it for a while, but I know that when I get back to it soon that I'll be able to pick up where I left off.

Inconvénients

When I started, it was all a puzzle. The instructions were clear, but I still got confused. The confusion was not Webinar Ninja's fault, but customer service happily helped me figure out what I needed to do. I didn't particularly like that my viewers had to sign in a couple of times, but that may have already been worked out.

Avantages

ability to get started right after putting in my details / making a payment. but that's where the pros stopped.

Inconvénients

Customer service is "always on" but unfortunately is useless. We've had catostraphic issues from the onset and everything with the customer service team (although always friendly) has never once been able to fix any issue. Issues from being able to send notifications to a different user, to not being able to see ANY of your analytics for any currently active webinar to not being able to upload to their site. Pages timing out. The list goes on and on and on...

Avantages

The dashboard is very user friendly and it's easy to figure out exactly what I need to do, without having to dig through support articles or reach out for live help. I love the flexibility it has to re-use previously recorded webinars for future use, and you don't always have to do live webinars. The statistics give me exactly what I need to measure success, and I love that it has integrations with 3rd parties like Stripe.

Inconvénients

I honestly cannot think of any issues that I've had with WebinarNinja, honestly. Everything that I bought the tool for, it has done for me and I couldn't be more grateful for the role it's played in helping me build my business on auto pilot.

Avantages

I love this product. And what I love most is how they have kept honoring and honoring their members. I bought a life-time subscription years ago and every update they do to the software I keep getting that update. I mean what company does that? Thank you, you have a loyal customer for life! The software is easy to use, easy to create and now they have on-demand webinars that's a dream!

Inconvénients

It has some growing to do still, I think it is a big clunky in some areas, but nothing that I don't highly recommend! I would like more landing page templates, little bit more integrations.

Avantages

I've been using WebinarNinja for several years now, and I like it better than other webinar software I've used in the past. It's relatively easy to get a webinar going and customer support has always been quick to respond when there has been an issue.

Inconvénients

There was some functionality in the beta version that is not available now, such as on-demand webinars. you can't record a webinar and give someone the ability to watch it whenever they want. The staff says they are working on it so hopefully it will be a function again soon.

Avantages

We've been using the WebinarNinja software since it's inception, but a lot more in the past 2 years. The new features and placement of the tools (questions, polls, offers and documents) is much more intuitive and easier to explain to participants during the chat. Having them above the chat is a great placement. Being able to not only vote up questions, but that the questions and polls appear in the chat itself is brilliant.

Inconvénients

As a moderator, I'd like to be able to have a badge, but not be listed on the registration page as a presenter. It would be good for people in the chat to know I'm associated with the presentation, but no need to be

Avantages

What I like about WebinarNinja is its ease of setting. When I first used it, I was able to immediately create a webinar without even needing to open the documentation they provided.

In addition, the features are very complete. They provide various types of webinars at very logical and affordable prices.

They also have good and friendly customer service. Suggestions or questions about their products, always answered quickly enough.

Inconvénients

Until now I have no complaints against WebinarNinja. I am just waiting for the features, moreover what they will provide us as customers

Avantages

Since purchasing Webinar Ninja, they have made numerous improvements to the platform, which many competitors after several years, are still yet to implement.

The support from Webinar Ninja is always proficient and helpful, which, I believe is one of the most important things you can focus on in a business.

Inconvénients

This is a tough one.

If I'm sitting here wondering what to say, then there is nothing to add that is a 'con'.

There's always room for improvement in any platform, but right now, Webinar Ninja ticks all the boxes.

Avantages

It is very easy to set up and run a live webinar.

Inconvénients

Very limited options to customize page design.
Very limited internal email campaign functionality.
Very limited metrics about watch time.
In other words, it is virtually impossible to create a campaign that will send different messages to people who dropped off after watching 1 minute of the webinar from those who watched the whole thing.

Avantages

The software is really easy to use and I love that anyone signing up for one of my webinars gets automatically added to me email list. This makes it extremely easy to maintain contact with people that have shown interest in my services.

Inconvénients

The older version allowed for a download of the video which I could upload to YouTube. I wish that functionality still existed.

Avantages

Easy to use, the platform is continuously​ improving with new features and upgrades allowing my business to progress with the platform as well

Inconvénients

not much to dislike about webinar ninja, compatibility​ with other platforms would be nice but zapier fixes that.

Avantages

I think the clarity and arrangement of the individual work areas very well.
It is very much logical.

Inconvénients

If you offer your product on the German market, it would be very nice if at least the most important information and explanations are translated into German.
As a freshman in this field, it was not easy to find my way around.
Especially the connection with other programs was an obstacle for me.
The picture quality is very bad when I let myself be seen by my listeners.
In addition, some of the webinar participants complained about poor reception and poor quality of playback in the webinar room.
I would also like to have an overview of the participants and their e-mail addresses from Webinarninja.
