I have worked with Global Meet for many years in 2 ways. 1.) I hire them to work with my clients for streaming, registration, analytics services. 2.) I provide them video services for the events that their sales team sells. We work with them all over the midwest, Every job goes smoothly as their team is very efficient with planning and follow-up.
  • Planning for remote productions.
  • Communication with all parties involved.
  • Client satisfaction for events streamed.
They are easy to work with and successful in what they do for clients.
  • Capability
  • Reach for webcasting (expandable).
  • Large team for support.

Our organization used GlobalMeet Webcast for a two-day global surgical meeting of approximately 1,100 surgeons and other healthcare professionals. It was an all-in company activity that included all members of our society + industry partners + prospective members. This was in the height of the global pandemic so we were super stressed about selecting a vendor quickly and with our needs appropriately met - GlobalMeet Webcast met that need.
  • Careful planning - they were thoughtful and thorough in helping us plan our needs
  • Reflexive to requests - as we had suggestions or requests, we felt they listened and responded
  • Good culture - it feels like they have a strong company culture that resonates well in supporting each other and clients.
  • [I feel like] they didn't have all of the features some of the common platforms (like Zoom or GoToMeeting) have available and that was a big problem for us.
  • [I feel] their pricing structure felt like it was kind of tacky and less functional.
Their team was very hands-on and helpful in the set-up and execution of our meeting. I would recommend them, especially for first-time virtual meeting planners. They were thorough and thoughtful in the planning process, which made the execution smoother.
  • Complete (in-depth) planning process
  • Thorough preparation of speakers/presenters
  • Detailed analysis/debriefing following the event

  • This platform allowed us to quickly pivot from a large-scale in-person meeting we had planned (before the pandemic) to a fully online version, which was paramount in maintaining our annual budget. It was a success and so appreciated by our entire audience!
Their pricing was higher than Zoom - and their options for global participation was less functional, so it made sense for us to transition to Zoom for a subsequent meeting. Their functionality was better than Microsoft Teams. Their over usability and user experience was better than GoToMeeting.

GlobalMeet is used as a conferencing system for a global clinical trial to conduct international training webinars and has spread to the use of our entire department to conduct meetings worldwide thus limiting the need for travel.
  • GlobalMeet surpasses competitors by having the same login and password for all meetings, the room IDs do not change therefore it decreases confusion on meeting location and how to join a conference.
  • The polling feature is helpful for anonymous voting and increased participation.
  • The ability to "promote" other users to "drive" presentations is key for presentations with multiple presenters.
  • The chat feature and ability to mute all participants helps when there is a large audience.
  • Although I love the polling feature, there are a few kinks that could be worked out, as the dialogue box at times interferes with the presentation.
  • Have the "guest" and "host" bubbles bigger when logging in, sometimes guests get confused and log in as a host accidentally thinking they need a password to join.
  • A kink I've noticed lately, is not being able to upload presentations forcing me to use screenshare. I'm not sure if it's a naming convention or why this error occurs.
  • I have limited use in the webcam feature as when using it in the past there was a serious lag time making it difficult to communicate, but, it could've been my internet speed as well... I'll have to give it another shot.
GlobalMeet surpasses my needs for international webinar meetings and I frequently recommend using it to colleagues seeking less travel.

  • Less need for travel.
  • Increased employee participation.
We used to use GoToMeeting and found GlobalMeet far surpassed my earlier experiences with web conferencing.
