Contrast is very easy to use and makes it simple to share content with participants. All the available widgets work seamlessly (call to action, poll, etc.), and the statistics section in the back office is excellent: viewing time, list of participants, etc.

I don’t have any negative feedback about Contrast. It’s handy. If I had to mention one tiny detail, it would be the ability to view open rates for webinar reminder emails, for example, and to set up multiple-choice surveys, but that’s just a minor point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've been using Contrast for our webinars for one year and a half, and what we like best is how smooth and easy the platform is to use. Everything works seamlessly, from setup to hosting webinars. We also appreciate the responsiveness of the support team whenever we need help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We haven't encountered any major issues so far. The platform meets our needs well, and the team is continuously improving the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how the UI and user experience of Contrast is very clean and easy to use. I can quickly scale the webinar program and easily get a lot of registrants and attendees without worrying about overloading the platform or running into technical issues during the stream (the most important piece). The hosting experience itself is really easy to manage, allowing me to train speakers to present seamlessly. Additionally, the initial setup was extremely easy, and I was able to get started with setting up my first webinar in less than a day (e.g., set up registration page and automated email sequences), which is really good for my standards. The web-based platform is feature-rich, allowing me to float up important CTAs, or ask questions via polls. I like the different formats where I can show speakers on-screen (e.g., "Brady Bunch" style, or one/multiple presenters with screen-share). In the live chat, there's a lot of ways that attendees can engage with each other and express themselves, like reacting via emoji or hosts being able to reply directly to a comment. Ultimately, Contrast feels like a webinar platform built for the modern era, especially compared to some platforms I used in the past. From a technical standpoint, it feels very stable, especially for events with 100+ attendees. The analytics features of Contrast is quite rich and I can easily assess and export data to compile for our sellers. The Contrast team has been very helpful and very quick to get our team onto the right plan to scale our webinar program, which has been very much appreciated!

There's some specific features I think would be really helpful to have with Contrast. These are by no means dealbreakers, but nice-to-haves and I've built workarounds in the meantime. I think it's missing a Q&A box feature for individuals to anonymously submit their questions. The live chat is really nice, but I want to have other options for attendees interacting with our live content. Additionally, and perhaps more critically, I think there should be a built-in survey tool so I don't have to bounce attendees out of the platform after the webinar ends so I can get their input. Because that attendee feedback is critical to me — I point attendees to an external survey after the webinar ends. But I'd rather point attendees directly to our website instead. Small point of product feedback; I like "featuring" a question that is being asked and answered during the stream, but after the full-screen overlay turns into the lower-thirds — the question gets cut off with ellipses, so you can't really see the question anymore unless you were paying attention for the first 5 seconds when the question appears on the screen. Also, on the Enterprise plan — the full HQ recordings of the speaker webcams feature is very, very nice to have — but as much as I tell speakers to keep the window open after the webinar ends to complete the recording upload, I don't have any more control to ensure that the full HQ recordings actually gets uploaded. I've lost some HQ content from speakers who allegedly closed the webinar platform after the event has ended — and my video editor has to cut down the webinar using the regular full-length recording. The AI features are nice, but I think the LLM can use a bit of work — for example, it's a bit hard to get exact timecodes from Contrast so I can edit down the video (e.g., for a social media cutdown). I think there's more usage out of the AI features that I can get if I further poke around, but it's a bit finicky, at least today. The executive summary piece has been the most helpful so far. Lastly, I wish the exported transcript had timecodes (e.g., SRT or VTT file) instead of just the raw text transcription. I have to use another tool to get my timecodes.

The UI is very easy to navigate, and the ability to host a live or pre-recorded webinar is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was a calendar feature where we could see all of our events mapped out for the year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like that Contrast makes webinars easy to hold and manage. The engagement features are great because they get the audience more involved and improve retention rates, leading to more people watching until the end. The communication side of things is also impressive, with an email notification system for registration that reminds attendees and sends them a link to the event, as well as emails that send recordings automatically after the event. I appreciate the engagement tools like emojis, polls, and on-screen comments, which keep people engaged through long webinars. The email notifications are beneficial as they come from Contrast and not from our agency’s email, preventing attendees from feeling overwhelmed by emails from us. I also find the integration with HubSpot fantastic, making it easier to track engagement with our content and aiding in pipeline management. Contrast offers better engagement tool sets and analytics compared to other products like StreamYard. The setup was straightforward and not difficult to use at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like to see more options to connect to other platforms simultaneously. I would like to be able to connect to LinkedIn, Facebook, and perhaps some other places similar to StreamYard. I wish it had that kind of functionality. I would love to have a better system for local recordings, making it easier to see how much has been uploaded and so on.

I appreciate Contrast for its user-friendly tool that makes setting up webinars easy and automates a lot of manual work we used to have. I really like the 'Studio' feature where I can record webinars immediately in a nice design that fits our branding. This feature is a big improvement for us because previously we had to edit videos in programs like Premiere Pro, which was a lot of work. Now, we can record a webinar and it's immediately ready to use. The connection with Hubspot is decent, and the transcription and AI features are nice to have. The initial setup was very easy and took us about an hour to get everything up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you record a webinar, you still have to download it separately to upload it to an on-demand webinar. This flow could be improved. In the beginning, we have also experienced some bugs during webinar recordings, so I feel like the tool is still in a lot of development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far I don't have any complaints about the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate that Contrast is very easy to use and offers a variety of features that meet our needs, such as uploading a recording made a few hours earlier. The tool also allows managing displays and asking questions during the webinar, which energizes the sessions and directs discussions more precisely on certain aspects during our product demos. The initial setup of Contrast is quite simple and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to be able to have a daily recurring webinar. And that is not possible as of now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We love that Contrast has added the cancellation email feature! We were also able to get the exports properly formatted. And we found the clips feature too :) This has helped solve the few pain points we originally had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Contrast team is always super quick to jump in and help with questions and address feedback. I do not have any other feedback for improvement at this time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a small detail, but I would like to be able to drag and drop the order of the speakers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
