What it is
On-demand replay means that the tool records your live session and lets you publish the recording for people to watch later. The replay usually sits on its own page, and may ask viewers to register first. For example, you could send everyone who signed up, including those who missed the live session, a link to the recording the next day. BigMarker, Demio, GoTo Webinar, Livestorm, Webex Events and Zoom Webinars are examples of tools listed with this feature.
Why it matters
Many registrants do not attend live, and a replay gives them a second chance to see your content. It also keeps working for you after the event, bringing in leads over time. You need it if you want the session to keep generating contacts. If a session is confidential or time-limited, you may prefer not to record it at all.
What to check
- Is the replay hosted by the tool, and for how long is it kept?
- Can you require registration to view it and see who watched?
- Can you edit the recording, for example trimming the start, before publishing?
- Can you remove the replay or restrict who can see it?
