I would say in general it is a pretty user-friendly platform. It is pretty different from other ones in the market today, so it had a little bit of a learning curve when I first started using it. But once you get the hang of it and where everything lives, it's easy to use.

Overall GoToWebinar is a fairly simple platform to use. We haven't had any major issues with learning it or adopting it. I would say it is on par with its competitors. There are a few quirks regarding setup of panelists and hosts; however, their FAQ and email support is very good and has solved many of our problems.

The tool mostly does what it says it will do--it does support our marketing strategy and it helps us deliver an important service to our current and prospective customers. For a stronger rating, we would require higher dependability.

GoToWebinar, once you get past some of the initial navigation, is quite user friendly and intuitive. The features it provides pre-, during, and post-webinar can assist any business in a multitude of ways. GoToWebinar gives you the ability to see when and if your attendees are paying attention. It provides an easy method of asking a question and getting an immediate answer, and it allows you to reach a larger audience across the globe.

The interface is familiar if you've ever used GoToMeeting; and as such it's a breeze to get started with. I do think the customization is straight forward but does have it's own learning curve to know exactly what each parameter effects; but the templates available make just getting started or using it a cake walk. Not to mention how easy it is for webinar attendees to register through the registration, login, and attend.

Overall, GoToWebinar was very easy to use, interested attendees found it very easy to sign up and attend, and we could do everything we needed fairly easily. We also saw which attendees didn't attend, recorded the webinar easily with GoToWebina,r and easily sent it to them to watch at their own time.

GoToWebinar is fairly easy to use but is not robust enough for our global meeting environment. We have found that it was much more difficult to maintain and engage in meetings globally using this product.

Ease of use and ease of setup are what make GoToWebinar a good tool for web conferencing. Also, setting up broadcast sessions to give info to a large group in the organization but keeping the audience muted when they join helps the ongoing meeting. Taking the questions on chat avoids any interruptions to the meetings.

Again, GoToWebinar is simple to use, other than it's really difficult to kick off a webinar, which creates anxiety before every single event. If they could just fix this, we'd be VERY happy customers! But it's a big deal, so I don't want to overlook it.

As an IT professional, it's relatively easy for me to use. Some executives struggled with the vast amount of functionality and seemed to get lost in the user interface. Executive presenters sometimes aren't the most technical bunch, so we had to rely on an assistant to make sure things went off without a hitch.

GoToWebinar breaks down the details and offers a simple platform that any user can easily access and interact with. It's convenient to communicate with attendees, share controls with others, and record webinar sessions. Very rarely are attendees having issues with GoToWebinar ( They tend to be having actual issues with phone or internet connectivity), there is very little time required to get a hang of the program.

Overall, the product is very easy to use. If you have a calendar invite, the link will take you directly to the login screen. Once you enter the webinar number and access code, you're good to go. There is an added level of work to do if you are listening over the phone, but it has been a really long time since anyone has asked me to call in. I have never had a problem using this product.

GoToWebinar is incredibly easy to use and understand - even if you are inviting a customer that has never used a webinar platform before to join an ON24 webinar, they will easily understand and use the software because the UX on GoToWebinar is very simple and easy to pick up.
