Layerdock vs zipBoard
How this comparison was made
Both sets of prices were read off each vendor’s own pricing page on — not from a directory or another roundup, which are routinely months stale.
Layerdock makes one of these two tools. The section naming where zipBoard is the better choice is real and is not a softened weakness — if it fits your work better, buy it.
zipBoard if you review SCORM packages, PDFs and video. Layerdock if the deliverable is a live website.
zipBoard vs Layerdock at a glance
| zipBoard | Layerdock | |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | $99/mo | $19/mo |
| Limit type | Assets (20 at entry) | Docks and members |
| Content | Web, PDF, video, audio, SCORM | Live websites only |
| Free plan | No (15-day trial) | Yes |
zipBoard covers websites, PDFs, video, audio, images and SCORM packages, which makes it unusual: it handles eLearning content that no website tool does. Team is $99/mo for up to 20 assets, Agency $199/mo for 100 assets and 5 managers.
Asset-count limits fit a fixed set of deliverables and sit awkwardly with continuous website work. If your work is eLearning, choose zipBoard. If it is websites, Layerdock is cheaper and adds technical capture.
When zipBoard is the better choice
- SCORM and eLearning review, which nothing else here handles properly.
- Websites, PDFs, video, audio and images in one tool.
When Layerdock is the better choice
- $19/mo against $99/mo, with no asset-count limits standing in the way of continuous website work.
- Console and network capture on live sites (read on Agency).
- A permanent Free plan; zipBoard has a 15-day trial.
