BigBlueButton is Open-source, Isn’t it absolutely Free?

Bigbluebutton is Open-source, but that doesn’t mean it won’t have any usage cost, though there is no Software or License cost, you need to bear all the resources costs like servers, bandwidth, installation, and maintenance to use Bigbluebutton.

Bigbluebutton is absolutely Free to Use Software under an Opensource license

If you also have access to a few other resources for free which are necessary to use BigBlueButton then you may consider it absolutely Free. Like

CPU Intensive Linux Servers or Datacentre (Minimum 8 vCPU & 16 GB RAM)

Public IPs & Unlimited Bandwidth (IPv4 , IPv6 & Unlimited Data Transfer Bandwidth)

Maintenance or Support Team (First Setup, Regular Updates & Maintenance, Support, etc.)

If you have the above resources available already or for Free we recommend you to Self-host BigBlueButton & we can help you with the First time Setup or Installation, Support, etc.

Self-hosted Bigbluebutton Infrastructure should be the only choice when

Having your own Data Center, Engineers & Technical stuff already.

Having Free Azure or AWS Credits, which can be utilized to run Bigbluebutton

The Government funds projects, & restrictions are applied on cloud-hosting platforms

Your own policy or the client’s policy doesn’t allow you to outsource 3rd party services

You want to experiment with a Self-hosted Bigbluebutton setup, without any actual usage

Your Infrastructure will be too large, that you can hire a full-time DevOps team.
