(1-25 of 51)GoTo Connect, a beacon in the collaborative cosmos!
- Collaborative Meetings
- Integration with Business Applications
- Collaborative Meetings
- needs more security and compliance features
- little customization options
- lack of real-time document editing
We do GoTo Connect suggest you GoTo too
- Good value for service received
- Excellent customer service (when rarely needed)
- High-quality internet-based systems
- 100% reliable...never had any failures
- Very secure from data management standpoint

- Better integration of GoTo Meeting, which we also use (and like)
- Better broad-plan pricing (like 'bundling') when we use multiple platforms as we do - and simplified billing
GoTo connect keeps you connected in a Flash every time !!

- Seamless connectivity
User friendly VoIP
- The call quality is way better than the other options available.
- It is easy to use which has led to faster adoption.
- Call recording option is a great add on
- The app could be a bit more user friendly
- The price is a bit on the higher side
- More customizations in the product would have been great which is missing right now
GoTo Connect - A Great Product for the Price
- Integration between Mobile and PC
- Great Audio and Visual Quality
- File Sharing
- Not marketed; many people do not use this.
- Bugs still need to be fixed.
GoTo Connect offers basic services for smaller users
- Web based administration
- Apps for the entire ecosystem
- Easy to use, drag and drop setup for creating functional call trees
- Functionality is not updated on a rapid pace
- Apps have annoying quirks that aren't addressed and make them annoying to use
- Onboarding help is limited and not useful
- They are pushing integration with other software they have bought rather than fixing issues
- They are trying to create an all-in-one app, but they are doing this by purchasing other apps and trying to integrate them rather than building it them themselves. This leads to a less than ideal experience.
Seamlessly Integrate Instant Messaging, Video Conference Calls, and Daily Management in a Unified Platform
I could easily sync my phone, call, scheduled meetings, team chats and groups all in one place.
I was using it for my calendar and and query management in a marketing company but it very useful in other different industries as well
I would really recommended this software to Business Owners and Sales people to keep themselves on top of the communication level with their sakeholders
- Internal meeting with more than 70 participants easily without glitches
- Multiple groups management
- Easy file sharing and economical messaging
- Very few people know about GoTo Connect. Good Marketing is required.
- In my experience, email Synchronization should be there. I haven't used it if its already there
- Integrations can be made more user friendly
GoTo Connect needs to attract more users on its platform so people can switch easily. If a client is not comfortable to switch from his previous software he might not move to GoTo Connect. In that scenario we would have to move to his software to progress with our communication success
- Phone Trees
- Call Mapping
- Scheduled Hours
- Assigning Users
- Assigning Phone Extensions
- Transferring Phone Numbers
- Speech to Text Voicemails via Email
- Call Recording
- Site user interface can be buggy sometimes
- Searching call records feels a little bulky

- We do not have to send screen shots or docs to the group
- Screen sharing during meetings helps everyone to see and discuss the topics
- Setting up a meeting is simple and fast
- GoTo Meeting could be more user-friendly for those not technically inclined
- Some staff members get quickly confused by the software
- Support is sometimes needed
My favorite GoTo
We love that we can see if our technician has returned the calls after hours or not.
- The phone goes off right away
- Email the messages to my email as well
- Shows if we responded back to the customer
- If it could be set for one on technician each day instead of all phones going off each day.
GoTo Connect meets your VOIP needs
- Allows multiples lines for different business functions.
- Ability to assign users to different lines.
- Enhanced voicemail system.
- Being able to see users' availability.
- Being able to see users' call logs.
- Multi-line call forwarding.
- After hours recording services.
- Transcription services.
Superior Product
- Simple to create call groups
- Easy to add or remove extensions
- Forward voice mails to an e-mail address
- Easier access to help functions
Simple, Clean and Supportive
- Accessibility and integration via desktop app or browser is convenient.
- Tracking - Timestamps, voicemails, favoriting and other abilities allow for abundant ways to track calls/chats.
- Simplicity - The ease of use is high given that symbols and color schemes are very straightforward. This is a benefit to an older workforce who may not be as technically inclined and allows for people of all ages to understand how to use the platform quickly.
- Not as modern as some other platforms available - This could be seen as a pro or a con, but having additional options like color scheme, statuses, and profile picture options make the user experience more personalized and fun.
- Lack of integration - Being able to link more than just your personal email to GoToConnect would be handy, such as time-tracking or your calendar.
- Uncertain if meetings are private - Anyone with a link can join a meeting, therefore I question how easy it is for someone outside of the company to join a meeting that was not meant for them. Maybe a password option would add a buffer of security.
GoToConnect is truly MY JAM!
- GoToConnect Customer Service is exceptional - you get to a knowledgeable representative quickly and they stay with you until the issue is resolved. If there is a reason for them to call you back, they actually do!
- Online Knowledge based support - if you have a question regarding how to do something, just google it! For example, "How do I set up a schedule in GoToConnect"? And, presto, the link to the documentation pops up. They have helpful videos and, if you still can't figure out, live help is always available.
- RELIABILITY - GoToConnect is up and at 'em 24/7, which is crucial in our service based business.
- GoToConnect has exceedingly robust reporting - when we need to track calls, productivity, etc. - we can get it from our reporting.
- So far, I have not seen any lack in the GoToConnect functionality, perhaps because our needs are fairly basic. One thing that would be nice is to be able to assign multiple people to get emails for voicemail from a single extension. That is, instead of just sending email to the extensions user or one email address, I would like to be able to have the ability to send to several.
- Sends an email with voicemails so I can make sure to reply ASAP.
- Customer service was great when I needed them at the begining. Patient, responsive, and knowledgable. The last time I had an issue it was not so great, so not sure if the quality is going down or it was just bad luck.
- When I picked up a call in Guatemala, the call would fall constantly. I was able to talk a little but it was a difficult connection.
- The app has glitches. It might get "stuck" on a call and not let you hang up. It sometimes logs out... but usually with a quick reset it works out again.
- Some local calls sound choppy, or the other end cannot hear me. I need to hang up and call again. Usually the physical phone works a little better than the cell app for this issue
Very Happy With GoToConnect
- As noted, their customer support is very responsive and helpful. Very nice and friendly people.
- Nothing to add negatively as we have no complaints and have had no problems with the service.
We're Connected to the Matrix with GoToConnect
- Easy to implement desktop application
- Simple frontend user interface
- Mobile application is quite useful
- Could make the backend admin panel a bit more user friendly
- Adding lines/users
- email for faxes
- mobility of use of phone services
- virtual meetings
- easier interface online
- Scheduling digital meetings with ease and a single click
- Sharing & collaborating in real time on a team project
- Video conferencing is simple to use
- Redesigning of the application makes it difficult for users to re-learn simple settings
- The lack of ability to form group chats and use the service while not in a meeting
- Screen share does not take up the entire screen which makes it difficult to sometimes view
GoTo Connect making it easy!
- Simplified Call Routing
- Virtual Faxing
- Voicemail to email
- Not being passed around when calling in
- Workflow for setting up new accounts could be more efficient
- Notifications that are targeted to the products we use when there is an outage, rather than "something is happening somewhere in the world" that's not particular to our organization.
