Chose GoTo Meeting
Google Hangouts is a bit less professional than GoToMeeting. Zoom is currently being toted as a great, free way to have meetings while staying home and working during the coronavirus outbreak, and because of this I suspect the program is being overloaded with users. GoToMeeting …
We have 15 15-day trial version to get complete usage learning about the meeting before getting a paid login. User-friendly and has all the options to conduct or setup and meeting.
GoTo Meeting closely stacks up to other video conference platforms. That being said, Zoom seems to have the best integration for businesses, while GoTo Meeting has some of the best security I have seen in a video conferencing platform. GoTo Meeting is fairly seamless in …
A lot of control access for a huge audience. Audio and video quality is much better. Screen sharing presentation is an easy process with multiple access controls.
We use Microsoft Teams internally and while that does allow internal teams to collaborate and chat, it has less functionality overall. Teams is not as user friendly and doesn't have things like a whiteboard or a good Q&A for meetings. Teams works well but we use Go To with …
I really like GoTo Meeting because it is a wonderful tool that provides me with a quality service, with innumerable features which are extremely flexible and adapt to my needs and are very wonderful, nothing is missing to add to this program. I really like that It gives me …
in terms of security is less known makes it safer. We still use the software because we rely on it since day one. We understand that new alternatives are widely used but we still trust this software for its reliability. For corporate use is cheaper than its competitors.
GoTo Meeting is just an all-around faster program. GoTo Meeting is a less clunky program than its competitors. The meetings we have when using this program are often smoother than the virtual meetings we have had using programs such as Zoom. I hope we use this program more in …
For large webinars and external customer-facing meetings, GoTo Meeting is a strong solution. Microsoft Teams, and Zoom, are alternatives I prefer to use when speaking to smaller teams and for other types of connections due to their improvement in UI, mobile apps, and ease of use.
Functionality amongst all the standard video/chat conference collaboration tools is about the same with the exception of better integration of other companies' software applications in their portfolio. I ran into issues with buffering with users on low bandwidth or "hot spot" …
I selected GoTo Meeting because it was a solid product before covid. However, once covid hit goto failed to keep up with its competitors. It came to making improvements and adding new features. In my opinion, it's slowly catches up but continues to lose ground as the other …
GoTo Meeting, [in my experience,] is severely underwhelming compared [to] the three that I mentioned above. If you are trying to decide to use either GoTo Meeting or Skype for Business [I feel] you have chosen your two worst options. Zoom and Google Hangouts, especially Google …
GoTo Meeting competes well with all these tools, but the note-taking feature and calendar integration has kept this software at the top of the list. It has been in the market for a long while and it continues to meet the business expectations and to support the goals of the …
I was not the decision maker when my company chose to implement GoTo Meeting. I think GoTo Meeting stacks up very well against the competitors in terms of functionality and intuitiveness of the software. I am not to sure how the software compares in terms of price point - to …
Compared to its competitors, GoToMeeting offers a friendlier and more intuitive user interface that allows for screen share and session recording. Converting your recordings for distribution takes no time and is easy to do and manage. The screen sharing capabilities allow for …
GoToMeeting, in my opinion, sets the standard for these other services regarding ease of use and availability across various operating systems. However, if high-quality video conferencing, whiteboarding isn't a necessity then GoToMeeting is not for you.

The choice for Skype For Business against the competition (CiscoWebEx, GoToMeeting) was made due to the lower price of the former. And it was worth it. All my colleagues enjoy using Skype on a daily basis.

I wouldn't have selected Skype. I feel GoToMeeting had license issues for the company we used it in and billing issues. Zoom was effective most of the time but didn't have easy interpersonal communication. Slack has instant messaging, but not video chat. In theory, Skype …

Skype for Business was selected because it was a legacy tool in our organization. It will be replaced with Microsoft Teams in the next year or so. This is a welcomed change. Teams is much more current, engaging, and offers more capabilities and intonations with other O365 …

Skype functions similarly to Webex and GoToMeeting, but overall is simpler to use and has many of the same key features as the other two software platforms.

I think that overall Skype is better product compared to GoToMeeting, as it is more functional and can be better integrated in an overall working environment of a firm. GoToMeeting has a better video quality in my opinion, but it is also less reliable (there are constant lags …

I think it is inherently easier to use Skype for business; builds on well-established experience base of individual Skype users. Functionality seems to be upgraded reasonably frequently. Integrates well with Microsoft suite of applications

Of the five other products listed that I have used/evaluated (I have used them all), I would choose any one of them before using Skype for Business [(formerly Lync)] again. The one positive that Skype for Business has is that anyone that has used regular Skype will easily be …

Skype for Business is the most popular web conferencing tool and with extremely flexible pricing. Many businesses have considered it to be the most inexpensive VoIP services provider offering a plethora of communication channels that make it possible to connect with anyone in …

We [use] Zoom at least 10x more often than Skype for Business, and even though I feel like Zoom has some very shady business practices, their recent security upgrades have been a really valuable way to feel safer about our calls. The biggest drawback on Zoom vs Skype for …

The three are great tools, but each one have its set of benefits. Lync it's getting out of market, but certainly it still has a great market to those companies that are not worried with external communication, for example. Teams and Slack, have already this approach, but both …

Skype gives user ability to control who can view or download the shared contents which I have not seen on Webex. Skype falls behind in customization of appearance as I can modify Webex, change theme, change pictures which is not present in Skype. Screen sharing is better in …

The previous version of Skype (before the purchase of Microsoft) certainly had fewer features than those implemented after integration with Lync. It was fortunate that Microsoft purchased Skype to improve its Lync.

It's very well suited to compete against the "big players" in the video conferencing world. Even as it relates to "normal" Skype, it does a lot more, and a lot better. It might cost a bit more, but it seems to really work well when we get it going with a larger group for bigger …

Skype for Business is more powerful yet easy to use. Has a better sound and picture quality. It does not need to be installed each time you get an invitation. You can use an external audio device or built-in devices. You can control another person's computer or give control of …

Skype for business is severely lacking when hosting meetings -- other software options are definitely better. Again, the ability to initiate a meeting (and perhaps in-browser versus locally on the device) is a major impediment with Skype for Business. Microsoft needs to do a …

Skype for Business has made itself a clear leader among the pack. I would put it at the top of the list because it's easy to deploy/manage and simply works great!

It integrates very well with Outlook making it the preferred tool for our business. Other tools do not provide this level of integration making it a seamless part of Outlook.

I wasn't the decision maker who selected the product but I would be sad if our company no longer provided it as a standard tool. I find it easier to use than GoTo Meeting or similar products but I still use traditional call-in conference lines because our older staff and …
