Use Cases and Deployment Scope

GoTo Meeting has been instrumental in helping our agency navigate the pandemic. We use it for our remote meetings. It has truly helped us continue with our business meetings. We use it across the agency along with some other products. I use GoTo Meeting exclusively. I find it the most user-friendly product.

Pros and Cons

Video conferencing
Screen Sharing
Audio Controls

It can be confusing to give control of a screen to others on the call
Split screen (presentation and video images) can be cumbersome
Call-in participants are not easily identified

Return on Investment

The monthly cost is very reasonable-almost no impact
We have continued with our meetings with no lapse--very important
Has allowed us to build collaboration with other agencies

Alternatives Considered

Zoom and Teams Manager for Microsoft Teams

I have found GoTo Meeting to be the most user-friendly. It seems to be more secure than Zoom. Teams take too much product knowledge, while GoTo is really just a log-in and go product. Teams do have more functionality in regards to overall collaboration within your own team, but GoTo's video and meeting capabilities are much easier to use.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is very well suited for meetings with many people with a presentation. Additionally, the software is well suited for a simple conference call. The video functionality is excellent. The only issue is that the presentation can be a bit small on the screen and it is not easy to figure out how to enlarge what is on the screen you are sharing

Video conferencing the easy way
