Powerful tool for videoconferencing and remote learning
GoTo Webinar is a powerful tool for remote education and e-learning content.

The live chat is an interesting instrument to share extra info and read comments while following the main conference.
- Manage screen sharing
- Manage live chat stream
- Manage audio settings of the participants
- Larger chat space
- Possibility to download screen content immediately
- Switch from differen screens

Goto Webinar is great for small & medium sized business who are looking to get started
It's a great all-in-one virtual event platform that we've used including some customizable modes, insightful analytics, powerful integrations, and flexible pricing, and works with all sized groups that we've had to schedule.
- analytics
- interactive features
- flexible pricing
- Bad with slow network
- video quality fluctuates more than zoom at times
- Not as many virtual backgrounds

If I had a third thumb, I'd give GoTo Webinar three thumbs up!!!
I could not give GoTo Webinar a higher rating! I attend frequent webinars on a variety of subjects for my role in environment, health, and safety, as well as physical security. There is a multitude of vendors that offer webinar capabilities. GoTo Webinar is a fantastic choice as it provides a simple-to-use platform with outstanding quality elements. Crystal-clear audio and video. Many other vendors have glitching and frozen screen issues that I have never experienced with the GoTo Webinar product.
- Smooth playback of video with none of the frame-freezing or glitching issues.
- Crystal-clear audio that allows for a wide range of volume adjustment.
- Super-simple to use and enjoy!
- If GoTo Webinar had an area that needed improvement, I have yet to find it!

GoTo Webinar if you'd like your Webinar to success
I used GoTo Webinar to streamline our communication in support for both internal and external queries.
We build physical product and support is essential either it's in house technician or external.
We build physical product and support is essential either it's in house technician or external.
- It's extremely easy to contact and send invitation the webinar required and the control is very intuitive
- Ability to track attendance and from the data we can generate very useful graph and vis for our metrics
- Multi presenter webinar are also useful in cases where there are multiple presenters
- Dashboard for control are mostly intuitive but in some menus like the webcasting section can be cluttered
- The current polling and survey capabilities are too simple. More advanced features, such as branching logic and real-time results, would make engagement more dynamic and insightful.
- Although it's easy for organiser to use goto webinar, users have reported issues and long wait time on their end and they don't have much control over the session

GoToWebinar: it increased our audience and so can you
Score 9 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We needed a way to bring new educational content to our audience. We use GoTo to host a monthly, a bi-monthly, and occasional paid commercial webinars. We initially charged non-members to view the webinars but the exposure to a larger audience during COVID made us change these to free for anyone. In addition to the live webinars, we also keep the recordings in a library for users to view later.
- The webinars are easy to set up and schedule
- Admin controls during the webinar are easy to use and pretty self-explanatory
- Automatic recordings are great.
- Attendee/registration reports are helpful
- You can't blur your background when using a webcam. Zoom has been doing this forever and this seems like a pretty big omission.
- Invited panelists can't test their screenshare/audio/video on their own so we have to schedule sessions to do this.
- We have a lot of repeat speakers/panelists, not having the ability to save their information for easy access can be a pain.
- You can't add hyperlinks or attach files to the automated attendee/registrant emails.
- You only get one login per license and cannot substitute emails. This is a real pain if the licensed person needs someone else to run a webinar every now and then because only the licensed person receives the backup panelist invites. Even being able to add a cced individual to those emailed invites would be a big help.

- Seamless Integration
- Easy-to-use
- API Integration

GoTo Webinar is the GO TO WEBINAR
Many events we use to host at live venues have been reduced to an online venue. GoTo makes it easy to set up many webinars, and it allows you to invite many people from different parts of the country! It has made it far more easy to engage with many across the country and the world.
- Webinar Enagement
- Ability to invite many orgs
- Simple to use
- backend is confusing

Great Tool for trainings and pre-recorded webinars
I use GoTo Webinar because it is very easy to use and it is #1 customer-recommended webinar platform to engage employees or other audience through virtual events.

From a user standpoint, I cannot think of any particular issues that I have run into while using Goto Webinar. It seems to be easy to navigate and works smoothly.

- Easy to use
- Stable
- Straightforward
- Add more functions for the user end

- Metrics
- Webinar recording
- More robust reporting

Simple to use and master
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
- UX is not great compared to competitors
- Occasional glitches occurred during webinars.
- Recordings were slow to upload

A basic solution for basic events
We use GTW for less critical webinars within our organization. For higher-profile events, we use a more premium webinar platform that provides more flexibility and customization.
- Simplicity of presenter interface.
- Good video capabilities.
- Quick to set up an event.
- Sharing a PowerPoint can be cumbersome. Presenters can't see the other attendees if they only have one monitor. There are workarounds, but it's not great.
- Registration form options are limited.
- Post-event emails are wonky. Very little ability to customize.
- Getting an event started is confusing. Their "Practice", "Start", and "Start Broadcast" options are confusing.

A great all-around webinar/live event tool
We used GoTo Webinar for hosting webinars and online events with multiple panelists and hundreds of attendees.
- Webinar set-up
- Webinar reporting
- Webinar logistics
- Apple users have had their cameras blocked
- Running the webinar from the browser rather than separate app
- More intuitive control panel
My team uses this app for hosting webinars with our customer businesses on several occassions such as quarterly updates ,annual general meeting. Its easy for creating and sending invites to a large set of people.
I personally also attend many wellness and fun sessions organized by partner companies for us. This has helped us easily attend such events and engage with our colleagues.

Video Conference Presentation Meetup Tool.
Through the GoTo Webinar, We can able to Connect internally with our Production Support teams, and also we can connect with our Clients as well. Apart from other Video Conferencing tools like Cisco Webex, through GoTo Webinar, it can host participants up to 2000+ in reality, But Sometimes in our Organisation at the time of Covid, in order to address more people (Close to 2700) in one Session regarding Health Importance we have utilized this tool to Connect with the Participant Queries to address their the emotional well-being and other stuff. So through this tool, Communication can reach a Wider Audience.
- Through GoTo Webinar, We can Present the Presentations to a Wider Audience, as informed Previously, as this Communication tool has a small amount of Licensing Capability at a Reasonable Price.
- Also, in the Meetings, The Panelist can ask Questions and can Conduct an intuitive poll among the Participants.
- Also never faced any Kind of Continuous Communication Glitches, But Sometimes on rare occasions, Noise Distortion happens, and that happens due to Network Fluctuations due to BandWidth Issues.
- Also, some of the other Features of the GoTo Webinar are the Hosts/Panelists Can Mute their Audiences and also can make the audience raise their hands so that the Questions can be addressed.
- Finally, at the end of any Meeting, I can Provide them with the Survey regarding the Meeting Stuff and end the Meeting as well.
- Unlike Some Other Conferencing Tools, GoTo Webinar Tool doesn't have the Provision for Break-out Sessions.
- Because if Multiple Sessions are happening in an Event, So it is up to the Participants to decide regarding the participation in their Following topics, So at the time, the Break-out Sessions are found to be helpful. But as said earlier, the GoTo webinar can able to house a Maximum Number of participants, But it should be One Specific Session, not the Brek-out Ones.
- Another demerit of this tool is the inability of users to become the Hosts at Certain Points to Continue the Presentation, as Some Restrictions are in Place that only the Hosts can provide Permissions to the participants at some Points.

You should try GoTo Webinar!

- Ease of use
- Low start up cost
- Good functionality
- Not a lot of advanced features
- Stiff competition
- Increase reliability would help

The Webinar Software to GoTo
Score 7 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
This software was used in a prototype situation when reviewing the best way to use a webinar related piece of software.While it was used my experience with it was early and good but it showed promise and have seen and interacted with it many times since. GoTo Webinar was used for the purpose of hosting a company wide GDC like event in which it was a platform for people to tune in and be exposed to a variety of teams and the information they where willing to share.In a company with thousands of employees it is vital to information share and GoTo Webinar created this opportunity.On demand video was a necessity and it delivered
- Ability to handle poll interaction
- Emailing automation
- Robust Analytics
- Audio quality could be better overall, Cut offs and stable audio connections arent as good as you would want it to be
- Documentation for GoTo Webinar Api is not up to user friendly standards
- Registration page lacks a robust customization

GoTo Webinar is quick, easy and user friendly
Our association uses [GoTo Webinar] for almost all our online webinars, which can be between 2-5 per month. Most of the programs are generated in the U.S., but we also use it for international webinars that are launched by our team in Malaysia. It has been a great way to reach a very large, international audience for our educational programs.
- Reports are quite thorough for attendee tracking, Q&A submissions.
- Overall the online technology and connectivity is very reliable.
- They have good help screens, and if needed the live help staff are easily accessible.
- It would be nice to be able to run customized reports.
- Running a presentation with embedded videos can be hit or miss; typically only 50% of the audience can see and/or hear the videos.
- When needing to enter webinar information in a foreign language, the auto translations on the platform are not 100% accurate, and there are only so many languages to choose from.
GoTo Webinar is used by our customers to host virtual events. Cvent has a tight integration with GoTo Webinar. Our customers use cvent to collect registrations where GoTo Webinar is used on the day of the event/webinar. GoTo Webinar encourages attendee engagement and has increased the attendance rate. It has resolved a lot of business problems like analytics and event administration.
- Integrates well with other systems
- Attendee experience is user friendly
- Provides nice analytics related to attendee engagement
- Improve attendee experience
- Offer interactive features like chats, emojis
- RTMP output
- API Management
