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

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.

We use GoTo Webinars when we conduct some of our value-added product showcases to a larger audience and then work with multiple geographic participants. We also use some of our events at one organizational level. HR could conduct some, and security and compliance teams could perform some.

GoTo webinar is used to host and attend webinars (both for and by internal and external audiences). The product addresses the business problem that many SMB clients and audiences have access to GoTo webinars, and we do not want to miss out on them (especially when we are targeting them through partners).

We use GoTo Webinar to deliver training sessions to an audience of corporate clients. Audience size varies between 1 to 20 students attending each session, and a recording is always provided. Conversley, we are also frequently on the user end, when someone else has scheduled a webinar that we're attending.

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.

I help set up, host, or otherwise provide backup for webinars. We aim for one webinar per quarter and invite our customers to attend to learn about what’s new with our software, provide important information about different areas of the business, and more.

I use GoTo Webinar exclusively to participate in webinars organized by other companies, so my perspective is from a participant in a webinar broadcast by GoTo Webinar. I use its app from an iPhone and access it from a PC. This helps me access relevant content published by large organizations that contribute to my professional growth.

The best!

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.

Great for hosting and recording webinars, could use a facelift

We utilize GoToWebinar to host all of our external webinars. We also occasionally use it to set up meetings for customers. We use it for hosting the webinar, as well as recording and editing the webinar. We also integrate into Salesforce to track opportunities from the webinars, and send reminder emails through the platform.

GoTo Webinar is the video conferencing software I used many of the video conference that attend. It is reliable and simple to use. It also uses screen real estate very well in that I can many different supplemental window panes (screen sections) during webinars that I attend. This is one of the primary applications for webinars that I attend virtually.

We use GoTo Webinar in 3 places:

- Giving demos of new features of our product to our customers
- Present webinars of our tech stack to our development team across the globe
- Training purposes

It became our go-to product to present new products and features to our existing customers and potential clients. Before, we used to record the video and send the link via email but it was missing live Q&A sessions. GoTo Webinar has solved it for us.

We use GoTo Webinar for hosting recurring and individual webinars; the majority of our use cases are for recurring training webinars for our client base. We have no less than 8 recurring webinars we run on a weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly basis. We use the design customization and the automated reminder/follow-up emails that also include the recording of the respective webinar.
