‍

So you need to host a large video conferencing meeting, maybe you even need to use breakout rooms, and you need to know what the limitations are across the Big 4 video conferencing vendors (Zoom, Google, Microsoft, and Webex)? Well…you’ve come to the right place!

‍

In this article, we’ll give you a breakdown of each vendor’s plans, pricing (per user per month), the maximum number of meeting participants supported, whether breakout rooms are allowed, and some key limitations of the plan you should be aware of.

‍

Most importantly, we’ve also included important reference links to our sources. While we endeavor to keep this article as up-to-date as possible, the vendors do change their pricing plans periodically, so we recommend that you click those reference links to cross-check our information.
