Overall Satisfaction with GoToMeeting
GoToMeeting is the remote meeting software utilized at Somerton Middle School to provide collaboration with teachers, administrators, and students. An online weekly meeting among teachers is required and this online videoconferencing tool is very useful and reliable. Also, due to the current teaching set-up caused by the pandemic, teachers in our school used this software as well to deliver online teaching and interact with the students. As a teacher, this software is so helpful because it has features and functionalities that are functional, usable, reliable, adaptable, and performed well. The cancellation of classes across the US created problems for teachers and our organization was proactive considering the challenges by introducing and using GoToMeeting as the online platform that teachers can depend on to still continue the classes. Online classes became possible and meaningful using this remote meeting application because the audio and video features work perfectly regardless of the devices used to connect in the online meeting. Overall, this software makes the online learning experience for both students and teachers enjoyable because this software has a graphical user interface that everyone using it can easily operate and navigate.
- Attending the online meeting using GoToMeeting is just at the tap of your fingertip; just click the link sent to you and you will be directed to the meeting session.
- It has numerous features such as recording, chatting, annotations, screen sharing, file sharing, real-time chatting, etc. that are very important features of any online meeting software.
- This software works well with different technology-enabled devices such as phones, laptops, Ipads, tablets, and many others.
- Attending the meeting has secured features that attendees need to input first, which is a great feature if you value privacy.
- There are instances when you attend the online meeting and the audio doesn't work perfectly and the only solution is to restart the device you are using.
- GoToMeeting's screen is not good if you are only using a phone because it is hard for you to see other attendees.
- The audio muting should be controlled by the host only so that noise can be controlled.
- The inferences, such as crosstalk, should also be addressed because sometimes all of a sudden I could hear a conversation that is not part of the meeting.
- Teaching is still on the go using this software.
- Collaboration is still possible among admins, teachers and students.
- Teachers are still updated on the school events and they can still attend the daily, weekly, and monthly meetings using this platform.
They both offer good features but GoToMeeting is easy to use and most students preferred and enjoyed using it. GoToMeeting has better audio and video receptions that are really necessary for any video conferencing software. The technical support of GoToMeeting is also another thing that I considered because the response time is better than Cisco Webex Meetings.
