Pros & Cons

MiroTalk P2P

Pros

  • Free and open source under AGPLv3
  • Low-latency peer-to-peer calls with no central media server
  • Rich built-in toolset: whiteboard, chat, screen share, recording
  • No installation or account needed to join a call
  • Full data control when self-hosted

Cons

  • Peer-to-peer architecture scales poorly beyond small groups compared to SFU-based tools
  • No official managed hosting or enterprise SLA from the core project
  • Requires server setup and maintenance knowledge to self-host
  • Community-driven support rather than dedicated customer service
  • Large groups should use MiroTalk SFU instead, adding a decision step for new users

  • Supports a wide range of webinar formats, including evergreen and simulive for scaling content
  • Handles very large events (up to 500,000 attendees on the top tier)
  • Deep white-labeling and enterprise security options (SSO, MFA, custom domains) at the top tier

Cons

  • No public self-serve pricing; every tier requires a sales conversation
  • 5% transaction fee applies to paid ticketed events
  • Advanced features like API access and breakout rooms are locked behind Enterprise tiers
  • Entry-level Basic tier caps webcams and host licenses fairly low compared to Enterprise
