Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use GoTo Webinar for all client webinars and training. It's a powerful webinar tool, with a lot of flexibility that we find useful. We do webinars for clients and prospects and utilize the Q&A, polls, etc.

Pros and Cons

Simple user interface
The ability for pre-registration, both manual and auto approvals
Technology is reliable and simple to use
The video library is convenient for us when sharing replays
Love that reporting is available almost immediately after post-webinar

Would love to have the ability to customize the required information for video replay access
Q&A panel during live events - would love for speakers to be able to see the Q&A and not just the organizer and co-organizers

Return on Investment

Fairly inexpensive technology so our ROI has been great

Usability

Very simple to get a webinar scheduled and ready to go. The in-event interface is fairly simple, but there is some training that is needed prior to an event for speakers that aren't as familiar with the systems.

Alternatives Considered

Zoom Video Webinar, Webex Webinars and PheedLoop

GTW is much better than WebEx. we still use Zoom Webinar for smaller events that are more training-focused. And we use PheedLoop for events where we have multiple sessions.

Likelihood to Recommend

GoTo Webinar is a great reliable technology for small webinars, as well as large-scale webinars. I would not suggest GoTo Webinar for interactive training though - this is more for 1 to many, with less interaction from attendees. That would be better suited for GoTo Meeting.
