From LogMeIn, GoToMeeting is an online meeting, desktop sharing, and video conferencing software that enables users to connect via the internet. It hosts a suite of online meeting tools, including real-time screen sharing and integrated audio.https://media.trustradius.com/product-logos/3I/CZ/CJMTEKBSKLZT.PNGLogMeIn, Inc.It meets our needs but could improve2019-09-18T15:31:58.827ZGoToMeeting meets most of our needs, but it is not very user friendly in comparison to others. When using computer audio, quality seems to be lower, though this may be due to connectivity issues. Dialing in is much better quality. Other solutions are much easier to set up a "you call me" option for dialing in. It is my understanding that you can set GoTo up to call the meeting participants, but it's just not intuitive or easy to do. It is just very annoying to have to dial and then punch in both codes (followed by the # sign). That said, the mobile app works really well.,Screen-sharing works well. Haven't noticed anything above and beyond other vendors, but nothing to complain about.
Meeting recording is simple.
Outlook integration is simple and easy to use.,It's just clunky. I find we spend more time making sure everything is set up okay at the beginning of each meeting than with other vendors.
Swapping presenter rights is a pain! Wish we could just share the screen in our meetings--maybe this is a setting we have to change on our end.
Finding the right way to do audio. When we are in conference meetings with a few of us in person, and a few others joining remotely, we always seem to spend a few minutes figuring out who to mute, who not to mute, etc. before the meeting gets started. Often times, we just end up muting everyone and calling the remote teammates with our cell phone on speaker.,7,Meetings just take longer--longer setup before, longer initialization and "getting ready" process.,Zoom,8,Microsoft Teams, Outreach, 6senseParker O'VeryGoToMeeting, a nice tool to meet with other team members worlwide!2019-10-18T13:44:55.473ZGoToMeeting is being used by our research group and others inside our institute, mainly to organize meetings in the scope of national and international projects. It allows the team to have real-time collaboration with other partners across the globe, editing documents online with other members of some consortium, screen sharing, etc.,Screen sharing works perfectly.
It is possible to join a meeting via computer, app in smartphone or phone call.
It is very simple and easy to learn how to use.,I believe there is a small limit in the number of attendees to a meeting.
It could be easier to record a call and share it with others.
No zoom feature for the participants in the meeting.,9,Not very expensive for the benefits it provides to the organization.
It allows saving a lot of time and money on trips, specially because it allows to share a lot of information through the screen sharing feature.
It's a relatively simple learning curve on how to use the tool, so it also saves times in this way.,Skype for Business (formerly Lync) and Webex Meetings,8,Webex MeetingsJoão AlmeidaConsistent but not fully integrated2019-09-28T18:31:25.827ZGoToMeeting was once our "go-to" for web conferencing with clients. Over time, however, we have leaned towards other products such as Google Chat and Amazon Chime. It was and is still sometimes used primarily by account services professionals as well as remote staff and various people spread across different departments.,Small meetings where all parties will be speaking and sharing their screen.
Remote staff needing to conference with coworkers.
Conferencing with clients who do not have reliable phone service but do have an internet connection.
Minimal interface.,It is not integrated with Google Calendar or Google Chat.,7,GoToMeeting has become an added expense for my organization, as other Google products have just packaged their solutions as part of our enterprise solution.
A sound web conferencing tool is crucial for client and remote staff communications, though, so if you don't have one it is a good investment.,Amazon Chime, Google Hangouts, Zoom and BlueJeans,10,GoToWebinar, Google HangoutsNate CasimiroStable connections lead to happy clients and users2019-09-24T14:14:02.636ZGoToMeeting is being used as an alternative to Microsoft apps such as Skype for Business and Teams. GoToMeeting offer some very stable channels to have meetings through and have some extra features offered that we find very attractive. Project managers can create meetings on behalf of others and co-host. It is also very easy to use and easy to learn. Clients have an easy time joining meetings as no admin rights are required.,The co-host meetings option is very smart.
Great interface.
Easy to record meetings.

It would be nice if GoToMeeting - and webinar would be combined.
Support, if needed, is pretty bad.,7,It helped with a stable connection with customers from different parts of the world making it easier to earn money.

It makes it convenient to gather multiple decision makers and share information regarding the needs of the client. It provides a live forum where we are all able to be aligned with their needs and how I will be able to best service them.,The connection time and live feed is great.
The invitation and login process is extremely easy.
The screen sharing gives great visuals.,The app has frequent issues.

It gives us the ability to all stay on the same page.,Zoom, Webex Meetings, TeamViewer, Cisco Webex Calling, Join.me and Lifesize Video Conferencing,7,Zoom Video Webinar, Webex Meetings, Join.meElizabeth RodriguezGoToMeeting - Not as Great as Webex2019-09-14T19:28:16.522ZGoToMeeting was our virtual meeting platform of choice before it was replaced with Webex. It was used by the whole organization to help us connect and collaborate across remote locations. GoToMeeting was very easy to use. I was able to to set up meetings quickly without any issues, and my leader pin never changed, which was nice. I had it memorized after a few times of using it, so there was never any fumbling around for meeting details when trying to connect. However, it had some limitations, which may be tied to the type of license I had. For example, I couldn't host two meetings at the same time, which was frustrating for some of my projects. Not everyone in our organization had a license to set up meetings, so occasionally I ran into scheduling problems with my team in creating meetings for them. It just turned into a hassle, which is why we switched to Webex. Again, I'm sure this could have been a license issue. Probably related is that I couldn't record meetings with GoToMeeting. Again, probably tied to my type of license. But I have that capability now, which is great.,Easy to set up meetings and invite others to participate, whether those were planned in advance or created on the fly.
Sharing my screen, running a meeting, and watching the participant panel for questions worked well too. I loved the layout and ease of switching back and forth to other presenters as needed. Very collaborative.
Using it outside my organization was a big plus. Although vendors used other tools such as Webex or Zoom, they were always able to work in GoToMeeting without a problem. Never hindered work in the slightest.,I'd love to see recording improved. Perhaps it was just my license, but recording was always an issue for me. May just user error. Who knows, but it was a big enough pain to cause us to look for another solution as an organization.
We didn't have integration with Microsoft Exchange, which would have been great to have. It wasn't necessary, but it just took more time than needed to login to GoToMeeting, set up the meeting, and then copy and paste into my Outlook meeting invite. Maybe this has been addressed, or we just didn't do it as an organization. All could be true. But we didn't have it at the time, and it was annoying.,7,It was great - kept us from traveling and allowed easy collaboration. Very easy to use - no training required.
There was some fumbling around initially, but we all picked it up pretty quick. I would have liked to learn more about it. I'm sure there were features I didn't take advantage of that I wish I had.,Cisco Webex Calling,6,Cisco Webex Calling, Zoom Video Webinar, Microsoft Teams, Skype for Business (formerly Lync)Richard CraneGoToMeeting is the Gold Standard2019-09-14T17:38:50.228ZWe utilize GoToMeeting across our entire organization and two countries. We use it for external meetings with clients, prospects, and partners to show our SaaS platform, and internally for meetings between our New York and Milan offices. GoToMeeting enables us to conduct a wide range of business that would otherwise have to be done less efficiently by phone or in-person.,Simple to operate.
Very good connectivity.
Integration with Google Calendar.,The side panel for conference details (attendees, chat etc) gives my navigation challenges -- there's too much packed into too little space, and it's hard to find what I need while I'm also presenting. Maybe bigger buttons for most used, and minimize or hide the other less used features? For example, I never use chat.
When customers join there is a moment of confusion if they have really joined. It would be nice to let people join, see they are successfully connected both visually and audio, and allow the presenter to see the same, and when ready, open the conference so that all can hear and see, avoiding the whole "hello, are you there?" that often happens.,9,Tremendous time savings.
Review and coaching from recorded calls.
Better interaction between our NYC and Milan offices.,Zoom, Join.me and Google Hangouts,10Steve ShannonA simple meeting platform with the right set of features2019-09-13T22:49:42.968ZAs a global organization, we needed a solution for meetings that allowed us to have clear face-to-face communication across great distances. We used it across the organization and especially when working with industry associations. The simplicity of the platform allowed us to use it on the fly with customers who weren't previously familiar with the system.,No matter the platform (PC, Mac, tablet, etc.) it's fast and easy to start an instant meeting with anyone.
Screen sharing, multi-camera support, and document sharing make it easy to present the right info at the right time.
Calendar integration makes it easy to schedule with one or many people at at time.,While the system is very robust, at times I'd like to see a scaled down option for one-to-one meetings.
Sharing a file instead of screen sharing would be a nice add-in.
A faster keyboard shortcut for mute / unmute would be useful.,8,The ability to present products to customers and to record the session for their later review allows for more engaged and longer-lasting customer interactions.
Since we can send recordings after a meeting to attendees who missed it, we can ensure that all our intended audience members get the information they need.
Using digital meetings to show products has saved us on travel time and cost, which allows us to reach more customers across more area in less time.,Zoom, Webex Meetings and Adobe Connect,10,Zoom, Adobe Illustrator CC, Adobe Acrobat DC,Starting Meetings

That means it is an approved-to-use tool that IT/compliance teams won't try to block. That, of course, means for large globally dispersed audiences, few attendees will be challenged with viewing or participating in the meetings.,Well established market adoption.
Connect to time gets faster every year, thanks to lots of competition.
Feature-rich.,Price is too high compared to competitors.
Still relatively cumbersome to use, not agile.,7,It has been widely approved for use in most large enterprises.

I would estimate I personally use it 1 time a week.,GoToMeeting has been able to do everything needed for our org. and seems to be a preferred favorite for vendors via remote sessions
I have a rather large monitor, 34',' and GoToMeeting has a screen zoom feature that seems to keep the vendors from not getting frustrated.
You can switch control, presenters, and FPT rather well and easily.,I can't think of an area where GoToMeeting has room for improvement, other than its pricing option.
I would say it could always be cheaper. Freeware works well but when you get to enterprise-level, you get what you pay for so no real issues.,9,We do not have enough data here to quantify a response on ROI.

It is convenient and easy to use. The system allows us to share any information we may desire during the meeting, but is generally used for remote presentations. It does its job very well.,Multiple ways of joining a meeting, depending on the needs of the user.
GoToMeeting can share audio, screens, video, or data.
The system can be used for one-way presentations, such as webinars, where only the host can speak.,When used on a computer it leaves behind traces, such as the GoToOpener.
Larger meetings can be cumbersome.,8,The ability to meet with potential clients or vendors remotely is something every business should look into. Removing the travel required to meet face to face is sometimes enough to close the deal.

The chat options, the Q&W options, screen share options, ability to share handouts, etc. are all great. It is also a fairly easy platform to use with both mobile and computer apps. For our particular use, we are often invited to join a GoToMeeting webinar or event. The option to use or join the platform is available to the entire organization. It helps solve the screen sharing and video conference needs while allowing the instructors to have complete control over the webinar/session.,Easy to use and setup. The install of the apps (either on mobile or computer) is relatively quick and easy. Once installed, the simple click to join a meeting could not be easier.
The audio on a GoToMeeting is great! Audio is clear. You also have the option of using your device's audio or joining from a phone line. This flexibility allows for convenience.
The features of GoToMeeting, screen sharing, chat, Q&A, etc., are among the best. Icons on the platform indicate what that option is and it could not be any easier.,If there is an option to join a GoToMeeting without having to download an app, that would be great. Some users may not have the admin rights to install apps. If joining from a web-based browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) is an option, that would be great and convenient.
Not a big deal, but it would be great is having a live transcript for those who have audio problems would be great. If a transcript/caption was offered in realtime, that could also help ADA attendees with hearing issues.,8,GoToMeeting helps to reduce costs for having on-site training.

It meets our needs but could improve
GoToMeeting meets most of our needs, but it is not very user friendly in comparison to others. When using computer audio, quality seems to be lower, though this may be due to connectivity issues. Dialing in is much better quality. Other solutions are much easier to set up a "you call me" option for dialing in. It is my understanding that you can set GoTo up to call the meeting participants, but it's just not intuitive or easy to do. It is just very annoying to have to dial and then punch in both codes (followed by the # sign). That said, the mobile app works really well.

Consistent but not fully integrated
GoToMeeting was once our "go-to" for web conferencing with clients. Over time, however, we have leaned towards other products such as Google Chat and Amazon Chime. It was and is still sometimes used primarily by account services professionals as well as remote staff and various people spread across different departments.

- Remote staff needing to conference with coworkers.
- Conferencing with clients who do not have reliable phone service but do have an internet connection.
- Minimal interface.

- Stable connection.
- Licensing can be a bit confusing and should be simplified.
- It would be nice if GoToMeeting - and webinar would be combined.
- Support, if needed, is pretty bad.

GoToMeeting- The reason to go and not go
It was used by my clients for web conferences. It makes it convenient to gather multiple decision makers and share information regarding the needs of the client. It provides a live forum where we are all able to be aligned with their needs and how I will be able to best service them.
- The connection time and live feed is great.
- The invitation and login process is extremely easy.
- The screen sharing gives great visuals.
- The app has frequent issues.
- The initial invite ends up in spam frequently

GoToMeeting - Not as Great as Webex
GoToMeeting was our virtual meeting platform of choice before it was replaced with Webex. It was used by the whole organization to help us connect and collaborate across remote locations. GoToMeeting was very easy to use. I was able to to set up meetings quickly without any issues, and my leader pin never changed, which was nice. I had it memorized after a few times of using it, so there was never any fumbling around for meeting details when trying to connect. However, it had some limitations, which may be tied to the type of license I had. For example, I couldn't host two meetings at the same time, which was frustrating for some of my projects. Not everyone in our organization had a license to set up meetings, so occasionally I ran into scheduling problems with my team in creating meetings for them. It just turned into a hassle, which is why we switched to Webex. Again, I'm sure this could have been a license issue. Probably related is that I couldn't record meetings with GoToMeeting. Again, probably tied to my type of license. But I have that capability now, which is great.
- Easy to set up meetings and invite others to participate, whether those were planned in advance or created on the fly.
- Sharing my screen, running a meeting, and watching the participant panel for questions worked well too. I loved the layout and ease of switching back and forth to other presenters as needed. Very collaborative.
- Using it outside my organization was a big plus. Although vendors used other tools such as Webex or Zoom, they were always able to work in GoToMeeting without a problem. Never hindered work in the slightest.
- I'd love to see recording improved. Perhaps it was just my license, but recording was always an issue for me. May just user error. Who knows, but it was a big enough pain to cause us to look for another solution as an organization.
- We didn't have integration with Microsoft Exchange, which would have been great to have. It wasn't necessary, but it just took more time than needed to login to GoToMeeting, set up the meeting, and then copy and paste into my Outlook meeting invite. Maybe this has been addressed, or we just didn't do it as an organization. All could be true. But we didn't have it at the time, and it was annoying.

GoToMeeting is the Gold Standard
We utilize GoToMeeting across our entire organization and two countries. We use it for external meetings with clients, prospects, and partners to show our SaaS platform, and internally for meetings between our New York and Milan offices. GoToMeeting enables us to conduct a wide range of business that would otherwise have to be done less efficiently by phone or in-person.
- Simple to operate.
- Very good connectivity.
- Integration with Google Calendar.
- The side panel for conference details (attendees, chat etc) gives my navigation challenges -- there's too much packed into too little space, and it's hard to find what I need while I'm also presenting. Maybe bigger buttons for most used, and minimize or hide the other less used features? For example, I never use chat.
- When customers join there is a moment of confusion if they have really joined. It would be nice to let people join, see they are successfully connected both visually and audio, and allow the presenter to see the same, and when ready, open the conference so that all can hear and see, avoiding the whole "hello, are you there?" that often happens.

A simple meeting platform with the right set of features
As a global organization, we needed a solution for meetings that allowed us to have clear face-to-face communication across great distances. We used it across the organization and especially when working with industry associations. The simplicity of the platform allowed us to use it on the fly with customers who weren't previously familiar with the system.
- No matter the platform (PC, Mac, tablet, etc.) it's fast and easy to start an instant meeting with anyone.
- Screen sharing, multi-camera support, and document sharing make it easy to present the right info at the right time.
- Calendar integration makes it easy to schedule with one or many people at at time.
- While the system is very robust, at times I'd like to see a scaled down option for one-to-one meetings.
- Sharing a file instead of screen sharing would be a nice add-in.
- A faster keyboard shortcut for mute / unmute would be useful.

GoToMeeting Review
We use GoToMeeting in conjunction with Webex. I really like the integration into Gmail, as we moved from Exchange to Google mail a few years ago. The calendar options work very well, which enables our Admins to schedule meetings with a few clicks of the mouse.
- Integration into Google Calendar and Email.
- There's good support tools for Admin and Techs to troubleshoot call issues.
- It's very easy to use.
- We would like to see continued improvements in the technical analyzing/troubleshooting tools.
- We would like to see the costs go down for the product.

GoToMeeting is best for massive audiences
GoToMeetng is the most accepted enterprise online meeting technology in the world. That means it is an approved-to-use tool that IT/compliance teams won't try to block. That, of course, means for large globally dispersed audiences, few attendees will be challenged with viewing or participating in the meetings.
- Well established market adoption.
- Connect to time gets faster every year, thanks to lots of competition.
- Feature-rich.
- Price is too high compared to competitors.
- Still relatively cumbersome to use, not agile.
September 12, 2019
No issues here
We have multiple vendors that use the application and we use it for meetings and presentations across the IT realm. I would estimate I personally use it 1 time a week.
- GoToMeeting has been able to do everything needed for our org. and seems to be a preferred favorite for vendors via remote sessions
- I have a rather large monitor, 34',' and GoToMeeting has a screen zoom feature that seems to keep the vendors from not getting frustrated.
- You can switch control, presenters, and FPT rather well and easily.
- I can't think of an area where GoToMeeting has room for improvement, other than its pricing option.
- I would say it could always be cheaper. Freeware works well but when you get to enterprise-level, you get what you pay for so no real issues.

GoToMeeting is great for those times you just can't meet face to face
GoToMeeting is utilized throughout our entire organization when we need to have a meeting with third parties. It is convenient and easy to use. The system allows us to share any information we may desire during the meeting, but is generally used for remote presentations. It does its job very well.
- Multiple ways of joining a meeting, depending on the needs of the user.
- GoToMeeting can share audio, screens, video, or data.
- The system can be used for one-way presentations, such as webinars, where only the host can speak.
- When used on a computer it leaves behind traces, such as the GoToOpener.
- Larger meetings can be cumbersome.

Great, but needs improvement to catch up with competition
I generally have many meetings in the week, and use three types of software for it, Microsoft Teams for internal meetings and Zoom and GoToMeeting for external meetings. So far, GoToMeeting has been a useful tool to quickly set up a meeting that can be recorded. Many other users within our company, across multiple departments, use GoToMeeting.
- Recording is possible
- It's possible for the host to mute everyone, to give one-sides presentations
- It's possible to use chat
- The login with a number is clever
- You can also join meetings over the phone
- The software looks outdated compared to other software.
- Screenshare for higher resolution is sometimes messy (can't see the whole screen).

Great Meeting and Webinar Tool
We use it across the organization to conduct meetings and webinars with our base of member investors. We host monthly webinars to pitch deals to our accredited investor base and individualized meetings and conference calls with deal leads, investors and other players in our ecosystem (alternative investments, real estate and venture capital).
- Screensharing and presentation tools
- Integrations and sign up links
- Dashboard to manage attendees during a call
- No way to manually register a list of users or previous attendees at once
- Would like to see a permanent call-in number as an organizer that users can always call into for our calls

GoToMeeting: Yet another good conferencing tool
GoToMeeting is used within my organization to set up remote phone calls and video interviews with business parters and our users. Each department is free to choose their own conference software tools, so it is being used by different parts of our organization. For my department specifically, we have used GoToMeeting to set up remote user interviews and do remote user testing so we can get early feedback on our product ideas.
- GoToMeeting is quick and easy to set up and join.
- GoToMeeting is usually reliable.
- GoToMeeting constantly requires installing updates.
- GoToMeeting has a very outdated interface.
August 29, 2019
Simple Remote Meeting Platform
GoToMeeting was being used to host online meetings to allow multiple individuals, not on the location of job sites to attend various meetings, such as collaboration and coordination sessions, internal staff meetings, schedule review, and so forth. It provided both Audio and visual screen sharing for everyone to participate and see what was being discussed.
- Allow multiple people to meet and talk together.
- Track previous meeting attendance.
- Set recurring meetings.
- Audio quality is often poor.
- Screen markup tools are limited and only granted by the presenter/organizer.
August 28, 2019
Connect with others around the globe
GoToMeeting is mainly used to conduct meetings between our company and our clients or partners. The whole organization uses GoToMeeting as it reduces time and provides efficiency for team members. In some cases, we also use it for interviews if the candidate is not in our region as that reduces travel costs for each party.
- Connects people across the world with just one click
- Call me to join the meeting feature
- Personal Meeting Rooms
- Mobile and Desktop options
- Virtual whiteboard
- The mobile version still has some connectivity issues
- for some users having to download the software first can be challenging
- With the audio I would like to see a reduction of echos

A Great and Simple Platform
GoToMeeting is a platform that we use as a webinar platform. The chat options, the Q&W options, screen share options, ability to share handouts, etc. are all great. It is also a fairly easy platform to use with both mobile and computer apps. For our particular use, we are often invited to join a GoToMeeting webinar or event. The option to use or join the platform is available to the entire organization. It helps solve the screen sharing and video conference needs while allowing the instructors to have complete control over the webinar/session.
- Easy to use and setup. The install of the apps (either on mobile or computer) is relatively quick and easy. Once installed, the simple click to join a meeting could not be easier.
- The audio on a GoToMeeting is great! Audio is clear. You also have the option of using your device's audio or joining from a phone line. This flexibility allows for convenience.
- The features of GoToMeeting, screen sharing, chat, Q&A, etc., are among the best. Icons on the platform indicate what that option is and it could not be any easier.
- If there is an option to join a GoToMeeting without having to download an app, that would be great. Some users may not have the admin rights to install apps. If joining from a web-based browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) is an option, that would be great and convenient.
- Not a big deal, but it would be great is having a live transcript for those who have audio problems would be great. If a transcript/caption was offered in realtime, that could also help ADA attendees with hearing issues.

GoToMeeting without leaving your office.
I typically use GoToMeeting when I meet with my vendors. GoToMeeting allows my vendors to present new products or upgraded features right from their desk. I also use GoToMeeting with our internal employees at different branches to discuss operations, goals, etc. This is such a time saver and allows everyone to meet without the travel time. In my opinion, this is a great idea and should have been thought of a long time ago.
- Allows your entire team to meet without having to travel.
- Saves travel time, fuel expenses and allows you to multitask.
- I don't have any cons in using GoToMeeting it is a very useful tool.

GoToMeeting brings people together
We use GoToMeeting across our organization. Since we have people all across the world, we use it for team meetings. We also use it for all our company meetings. Our sales teams use it for quick meetings with clients. Our technical support team uses it to remote into the client system to troubleshoot. It's really good for the synergy of our different teams. Being able to not only talk but to see each other make it look like we all work in the same office even if we don't.
- Quick meetings on the spot. The meet now features work really well for an unexpected meeting.
- The HD video conferencing is really great. It helps a lot with the synergy of our teams. This removes the distance between our remote users.
- Works well with our diverse computer ecosystem.
- The integration with 3rd parties is great. We use the Outlook plugin on both Mac and PC and it helps us organize meetings quickly.
- The mobile version is only somewhat stable. Meetings are easier to manage on the computer.
- Support is not great. We had connectivity issues in the past and support were not able to help to determine what exactly the issue was.
- The record feature does not include the webcam. Only audio and presentation.
- The chat feature is quite limited. A separate chat room outside of meetings would be great.
We like the way you can switch users to presenter mode. This is useful when working remotely and making presentations. We have also been able to have large programming meetings throughout the organization. It is worth mentioning that the collaboration has greatly improved since its implementation, we feel very consistent with this program and we do not plan to change it for another.
- It has all the necessary features to facilitate communication, such as screen sharing, and you can also chat.
- Its design is careful and easy to use.
- It is excellent for when someone misses a meeting, to help with taking notes, and the search capabilities are incredible.
- I don't like that sometimes it has security measures that aren't necessary when you try to start a meeting.
- It is good that it is safe, but I feel that sometimes they exceed in this type of thing.
- Sometimes we are in an emergency and we need to establish an early conversation for a crucial decision and with these kinds of mishaps, we must be patient. In those cases, it is a bit complicated to have it.

Gets the job done, but there's better options
It was used throughout the organization. However, due to its limitations such as too many resources needed and space utilization, frequent login issues, audio/video delay, and higher cost compared to other alternatives, we have now switched to another service provider,
- Calendar integration with Google and Outlook.
- A simple and clean UI.
- A/V call quality issues.
- Screen sharing latency.
- Resource and space utilization on local and cloud.

Get This Before Your Next Client Meeting!
GotoMeeting saves us travel time and business expenses by allowing us to have meetings right from our desk.
- It is easy to implement and easy to launch.
- User-friendly for a client who may not be familiar with GoToMeeting.
- Cost-effective.
- I wish video was easier to implement.

GoToMeeting allows for seamless collaboration internally and externally
We use GoToMeeting to set up client meetings and training sessions, as well as collaborative sessions with internal and external employees. It allows us not only to set up calls but share work and view the same work as a team. It eliminates paperwork and printing as we can all view online together at the same time.
- Collaborative calls
- Collaborative presentations
- Allow for seamless communication internally and externally
- Eliminate the need for printing
- On occasion we have trouble connecting
- Some clients have a different product they use, which may require us to use their platform instead
September 02, 2019
Very simple to use and navigate
We use it to collaborate with plans and design aspects for projects. We use it on a case by case basis but it is used frequently. Some of the job sites have limited or slow internet access so it creates problems for us and the ability to use it effectively.
- Easy to use and navigate
- Screen share is very convenient and simple
- Anyone can participate
- The phone or talking portion has a big lag and slows things down. We generally use a cell phone and put it on speaker
