    Pros
    The ease of sharing events with partners and clients was great and very simple. Graphics are sharp and clear as you create the events.
    It’s very easy to use as it took me only few minutes to understand how it works. Very useful and helpful during the lockdown period.
    This software give advantage to promote the webinar to its network and can help you with lead generation.
    Cons
    The end-user experience is bad. And the brand customization is limited.
    There is a 30-second delay. You have to load the slides before the webinar.
    I had a hard time turning this off and ultimately unsubscribed.

    Great webinar tool that gave us access to a built-in audience

    Reviewed 6 years ago

    We like having access to a built-in audience of HR people. It also curates other audiences besides HR.

    Pros

    We use BrightTALK to access their large built-in HR audience. When we post a webinar, the tool promotes it to like-interest subscribers. It is like owning a YouTube channel for webinars. It is easy to use and allows you to build a channel of recorded webinars that can be promoted indefinitely.

    Cons

    It does not have all of the flexibility and power of GoToWebinar. There is a 30-second delay. You have to load the slides before the webinar. You have to use Join.me if you want to share your screen as opposed to the loaded slide deck.

    BrightTalk is just Ok

    Reviewed 3 years ago

    We wanted to do webinars at scale. What's happening is that our webinar registrants are now "subscribers" to their channels and get solicited to join irrelevant webinars.

    Pros

    In theory, BrightTalk could be a powerful webinar tool. By utilizing their platform, you gain access to their communities of subscribers -- so a lead gen benefit.

    Cons

    BrightTalk falls short. The interface isn't great. The end-user experience is bad. And the brand customization is limited.

    Vendor response

    Hi Francesca Thank you for sharing your response. It's our #1 priority that our platform is delivering value for our audiences and clients alike. I will reach out directly to discuss your concerns, but to address your feedback: - Brand customization is one of the areas we shine compared to alternatives, so let's discuss if you're aware of all the functionality in the platform. - We just launched...

    Easy to use and very interactive

    Reviewed 3 years ago
    Pros

    It’s very easy to use as it took me only few minutes to understand how it works. Very useful and helpful during the lockdown period. Display and layouts are quite interesting and creative. Overall experience is satisfactory.

    Cons

    The price is expensive so for a small project is not really affordable. Although with the quality and result we experienced, it’s still quite accaptable

    Great software, but not perfect

    Reviewed 5 years ago
    Pros

    We use BrightTalk for webinars we host in the marketing team. Overall, it offers some nice features and seems to work well.

    Cons

    I wish it offered some features that GoToWebinar offers, for example, the tracking link portion. Being able to create unique tracking links for different marketing sources was great on GTW, but BrightTalk doesn't offer this yet.
