On-demand webinars


On-demand webinars allow you to schedule a webinar with registration and record the webinar automatically in the cloud. After the webinar, registration will stay open and anyone who registers will receive a link to the cloud recording. The host will receive registration information for both live attendees and others who register to watch it later.

Note: On-demand recording registration is not compatible with the Paypal integration, attendee emails, post-attendee links or surveys.
