  • 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.

  • Payment is not flexible regarding use of various currency.
  • Compared to other video conferencing tools, the price point is a bit costly.
  • Payment is not flexible and available in US dollars only. This can be challenging as there are restrictions in procuring foreign currency due to unavailability or limited amount of US Dollars in my jurisdiction.
  • Whilst similar video conferencing tools provide the same experience and usability; I personally think it is a bit too costly.

  • 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.

  • GoTo Webinar integrates well with the tools like LeadPages, Zapier, etc., so you can have your own style of landing page for improving initial webinar opt-ins
  • Polls and Questions is my favorite feature in the tool, as it helps in building engagement with the audience
  • GoTo Webinar stores the session recordings on its server, which you can download whenever you want.
  • Their pricing plans, most of its competitors else provide a Free Tier in their plans
