Simple to use and master

Rating: 8 out of 10

We used GoTo Webinar to execute marketing webinars for clients, prospects and internal employees. It was our standard in-house tool for several years and every member of the marketing team had access to use this software on a weekly basis. This tool helped us quickly plan and develop webinars for end users.
  • Easy to set up webinars
  • Simple to learn to use
  • Q&A feature is simple to operate
Cons
  • UX is not great compared to competitors
  • Occasional glitches occurred during webinars.
  • Recordings were slow to upload
I found GoTo Webinar easy to use and operate for webinars with less than ~350 attendees. Any more attendees than that and I ran into issues with recordings, and other occasional glitches. The UX doesn't allow for as much event invite customization as competitors. However, creating an event is extremely easy, making it simple to quickly put together an event invite.

I use GoTo Webinar to remotely attend Continuing Education webinars. This software makes attending such webinars very easy. I typically receive a GoTo Webinar link, which then will produce an event that I can put on my calendar. The interface itself is not dissimilar to Zoom and other video conferencing software, which makes it quite accessible.
  • Simple User Interface that runs smoothly.
  • Links to webinars make it easy for attendees to register for and attend virtual events.
  • GoTo Webinar event streams tend to be quite stable.
GoTo Webinar excels at hosting webinars ... obviously. It is indeed well-suited and optimized for such events, which means a lot of the extras that Zoom or Teams might have are trimmed to not add a lot of extra features and buttons that might distract the end user, distract them as they attend a Webinar, or confuse them as they try to log on or register.

If you are looking for a Digital Platform to manage your Digital Event. GoTo Webinar is a reliable option

GoTo Webinar for the webinars

Rating: 8 out of 10
August 22, 2024
This product we generally use for webinars and yes it has the capability to handle the audience. This software also has good options to share the screen, chat options and also recording management is good. This Platform has a simple interface to use it. that helps while presenting something. A few of the negatives I faced but yes this can be continued.
  • Webinar
  • Session recording
  • Presentation
Cons
  • Audio
  • Interface while presenting shows a black area on audience screen
  • File attachment and Chat option
When you are going to plan a Webinar and the audience is large then it is a good platform to use. It also can be used just for broadcasting any presentation. I can't see any issue where it doesn't fit. but if planning for something which really matters for the proofs then this might be an wrong decision because its audio breaks frequently and also its sidebar shows black colour on viewer screen

I use GoTo Webinar with clients who are looking to generate warm to hot leads for their product/solutions. Webinars and demos are key, especially for my SaaS clients, and GoTo Webinar provides a very intuitive and familiar interface for our hosts, cohosts, and guests. It typically only takes us 2 to 5 minutes to set everything up, from basic information to the registration page. Occasionally a client demands to use a different solution, but they always come to regret it in the end, switching back to GoTo Webinar.
  • Webinars
  • Landing Pages
  • Customer Support
  • Webinar Recording
Cons
  • The Channel Interface isn't as intuitive in my opinion.
GoTo Webinar is a great tool for generating leads, keeping attendees engaged, and creating trust between hosts and attendees. We love the flexibility where we can use the GoTo Webinar landing page and reminder/confirmation emails or use integration with email or marketing automation software for similar purposes.
