Overall Satisfaction with GoToMeeting

We use it for remote desktop and for remote support sessions with vendors for the IT department.
  • Web Meetings
  • Sharing of Screens
  • Distributing Documents/Files
  • None
  • This purchase was a "No Brainer" it just fit into the vision and goals of the technology department and organization.
  • Zoom
Zoom and GoToMeeting are very similar in product but GoToMeeting's history and reliability are the main reasons for us purchasing.
I use GoToMeeting for Mentoring DOT/CTO candidates and gives me flexibility in scheduling the meetings months out.
