Overall Satisfaction

  • Appealing interface.
  • Easy to use.
  • Both video and phone options are of high quality.
  • Crash-prone. [Momentarily drops audio or video.]
  • Would love for slides to eventually be interactive enough to include clickable during webinars.
  • Truth be told, I no longer use GoToMeeting as my go-to webinar source due to the crashing issues.
  • I've had successful conversions in the instances GTM didn't crash / drop audio / video.
Again, in webinars I've hosted as well as attended, audio drops are entirely too frequent or people were dropped off of the webinar.
Usability is great for attendance. Use at your own risk when hosting.

Product Usage

1 - Computer-literate.
  • Hosting webinars for online services & digital products.
  • Online meetings.
  • !5-min consultations.
  • Peers, clients have enjoyed replays when they missed original broadcast.
  • Won't use for hosting until crashing issues are fixed.

Usability

Exceedingly easy to use. I was an advanced user, as there was nothing to it. I just couldn't take the dropped audio / imminent crashing.

Yes - Mobile experiences have been Ok. Slows my smartphone down, but its a large app, so that's to be expected.
