Pricing Comparison Note

Vidyard starts free for basic recording. Pro is $19-59/mo. Loom is free to $12.50/user/mo. Sendspark is $39/mo. Vidyard's premium buys you video analytics (who watched, for how long), CRM integration, and CTAs within videos. Whether those analytics improve your close rate enough to justify the cost over Loom depends on your sales motion.
