Need to do a one-time ~300 person webinar. What is the Zoom product for me?

[MM552]

I thought this would be fairly straightforward, but I'm a little confused about all the various offerings.

I am putting on a yearly event for a community association. They want to use Zoom, and I like Zoom.

I am a little concerned/confused about the pricing.

Do I need a $350 CAD/month Pro account to do this?

I also see the Webinar option, which sounds like it would require a $214 (CAD) / year Zoom One membership, and then a $106 / month Webinar add-on. Is that what I need? That pricing sounds more reasonable.

Should I just propose we use YouTube instead? There will not be audience interactivity, it's just a video stream.

Thank you.

EDIT: And then on another page, I see a "large meetings" add-on for $67/month. Would that + $214CAD/year Zoom One be the cheapest solution?

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @MM552.

The options can indeed be bewildering!  Most of the pricing you will see is based on wanting to do things throughout the year, on an ongoing basis.

How can you just put on one 300-person Webinar?  You need a 1-month Zoom One Pro license and a 1-month Zoom Webinar 500 license.

Zoom One Pro for one user for one month: $14.99 US + applicable tax.

Zoom Webinar for one user for one month: $79.00 US + applicable tax.
