Pros and cons

We are happy and lucky to have them supporting our event and campaign. Onlive's solution contributes to the success of our project.
Great team to work with. The people are helpful, friendly and is able to help to solve any issues.
I love how quickly and easily I can set up registration websites. I've also received great support from the team - helping to troubleshoot, customise solutions and answer all types of questions.
The pricing plans are a bit confusing and difficult to understand.
Some of the colors can make it hard to decipher.
They did not offer a full white label because privacy settings are always going back to there website and there’s no way to redirect or turn this feature off.

Reviewed a year ago

All in all, onlive is very easy and convenient to use live streaming app, with great quality

Pros

It is very easy to go live (streaming) with onlive - just a few clicks and I have been able to create a professional live streaming event... With a great landing page design With convenient registration website With a handy studio

Cons

I just think the Studio can have more features, such as captions, branding etc.

Amazing customer service behind a great product

Reviewed 2 years ago

We were really thankful to have [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] support us throughout the whole process and provide alternative solutions using their platform for some of our pain points we had with past systems. We were given access to a premium trial account to test out the functionality which gave us more confidence in the software. I highly recommend getting in touch with the Onlive team to work through what your requirements are as they really know how the platform can adapt to your needs!

Pros

Our team were looking for a subscription-based event booking system that we could spin up with a tight deadline for a client. Out of the solutions we researched, Onlive was by the far had the best/useful features/functionality and was a much cheaper alternative than other platforms. We were impressed at how simplistic and streamline the CMS was to use, while providing a sleek site layout using modern page template layouts and components. It was great that the platform offered two payment gateways for users, provided flexibility in how simple or specific you could build out the form using the form builder as well as including a web app customised for the users/customers.

Cons

The only con was not having access to the front end code to have the ability to fully customise the site, however, this seems to be a standard practice across every other event booking systems to cover their support (they allowed a CSS file to be imported). This was the only minor thing which was not a concern/game changer for us.

Wonderful customer service team with User-friendly Admin Backend

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

Our team was looking for an online event video platform with sign up and communication functions that we have a very tight deadline. Among all the possible solutions we researched, Onlive had the most useful features esp. the robust email communication tools, comprehensive functionality and most customizable and ease to use frontend interface and backend system. And the pricing model is economical and reasonable. I am impressed by how simple and user-friendly of the CMS the platform that they have offered. The Onlive account servicing team is very agile, professional and detail-minded. We are happy and lucky to have them supporting our event and campaign. Onlive's solution contributes to the success of our project.

Cons

I think Onlive team can improve the reports display further.

Live Streams that stand out

Reviewed a year ago

With Onlive, you can have beautiful landing pages for registration. And the simple step-by-step wizard will help you get up and running with the live stream within minutes. This will save tons of time to focus more on building your audience instead of learning how to be a tech.

Pros

What grab my attention was the east of creating a video splash screen. After entering the back office, I was blown away with all the customization you have and the modern UI.

Cons

Once in a lifestream you cannot go back because you will be kicked from the session I have to re-login etc. to get back to the live stream. They did not offer a full white label because privacy settings are always going back to there website and there’s no way to redirect or turn this feature off.

Onlive for Global webinars

Reviewed 3 years ago

We found the staff to be helpful, understanding of our needs and willing to seek solutions to any small problems we encountered in setting up and using the application.

Pros

The product was reasonably priced and offered most of the features we required. Staff were prompt with answers to questions and gave comprehensive information. There were several methods by which support could be sought. We have yet to "go live", so cannot comment on that aspect.

Cons

It did not allow us to "package" events in the way we initially wanted, but we have been flexible about this.

User-friendly DIY software to promote on-ground events and track event performance

Reviewed 4 years ago

I was looking for a solution to design an event detail page along with an embedded registration form that I could customize. And be able to track sign-ups easily.

Pros

It’s user friendly! There are many customizable options, but it’s guided enough to ensure I don’t accidents create something hideous (like creating a personal blog page). I can add other administrators to help me with content population too :)

Cons

Nothing! Maybe having a mobile optimized version of the reporting pages? But then again, I’m usually on my laptop in the office...

Very intuitive and easy to use. Takes 5 minutes to get familiar with the platform and start creating websites, registration forms and apps. Really like the curated experience that kick off the progress and its impossible to fail to build a beautiful site and yet it feels really robust.

Cons

I wish that you could get more features in the free version.

Great Hybrid Conference Platform!

Reviewed a year ago

We are using the platform to provide a platform for recruiters and talent acquisition professionals to share information with each other and network on a global level.

Pros

- Hybrid capabilities of virtual and in-person conferences - Collects fees with a low cost for doing so - It handles the registration website for you - Great analytics for attendees, sign-ups, etc - I like the studio they have for setting up speakers for success

Cons

Still growing company, so there are some workflows that could be simplified, or maybe not simplified as much as shortened? But alternatively, it's SUPER customizable and awesome.
