GoTo Training vs. Microsoft Teams Rooms

Having a virtual or online meeting or training that needs multiple attendees, I would recommend using GoTo Training. Was able to see multiple cameras and have multiple people on a training at once. The best feature was able to record trainings and be able to watch them at a later time.

We use Microsoft Teams Rooms across all of our main conference suites. This ensure our staff have consistent meeting experiences in out part of the education sector - meetings generally become hybrid fairly frequently and can even extend to pupils or staff working from home. We did try some of the poly equipment in a classroom environment but due to noise levels and the amount of pupils and staff it quickly became a non starter. We were advised to stick with participant numbers aligned to our purchased hardware before we tried this.

• Live reactions like hand claps, thumbs up, raised hands,etc can be used to indicate to presenters that a meeting attendee has a question. This is cool.

User friendly, easy to follow and enjoy having the ability to record meetings for viewing pleasure. People who are more technology challenged were able to figure out GoTo Training easily and could understand directions over the phone or using the app for the first time.

Microsoft Teams Rooms has been very useful for our small business. As mentioned, it has allowed us to connect with our team more regularly, share important information, and keep productivity up by allowing our team to get on remotely and not have to commute to be together in person.

Never had to use the support system because things were easy to figure out without having to need to contact someone.

Prefer GoTo Training over Skype for Business. Currently using Microsoft Teams and prefer the ability to set up appointments directly with Outlook and emails

I consider MTR better because it first allows integration with all the Microsoft apps and is more cost-effective, considering all the included services such as the Office app, Cloud Storage, and email.
