### "Outdated System; Still Surviving"

December 1, 2018

5.0

Go to webinar is confusing if you want to ingrate it deeply into what you are doing. Using all its capabilities will probably lead to upgrading of subscription or purchasing another product that's very similar but not quite from the parent company GoToMeeting.

Pros

Offered great video quality and sound to our webinars. Offers pre-recorded webinars. Easy to set up a session and go live.

Cons

Upper level subscription required for pre-recorded webinars (running automatically). Recording would be 10x better if it were automatic. I was burned a couple times. Some videos had audio scrambled after converting. Unable to repair the full video. Lost multiple recordings to this. Our customers were constantly confused by "join links" -- BUT this could have always been user error.

### "Good app, but troublesome on iPhone"

May 3, 2023

5.0

Pros

I have used this when looking for an alternative to online meetings software like Zoom, etc. This was not my final choice but I still liked the overall experience. It was easy to register and set up. Unfortunately, I had problems with the iPhone app and got frustrated quickly and switched. I have used it on Windows and had absolutely no problem though. So, maybe it was just a bug on the iPhone app

Cons

The iPhone app was not good. I couldn't connect to the meeting and I have tried several times, on various days. The Windows app had no problem.

### "Best option for salesforce training"

December 4, 2018

5.0

Overall, GoToWebinar has increased our ability to reach out ot our sales teams in the most efficient way possible. Using GoToWebinar is the closest thing you can get to being in the same room with all of the participants. I really don't feel that anything is left out in the overall experience.

Pros

I like that we can train our entire sales force all at once, while allowing them to submit questions in real time. It makes training sessions feel more personal and as a result, our sales teams are able to learn new materials and features of our business more easily. We are able to share not only live video, but desktop streaming as well which allows us to share charts and analytic info with the participants. Another great feature is that there can be multiple streamers running the webinar from different locations, joining in together to do the presentation while the guests can all view and hear, while at the same time have the ability to submit questions and comments via the chatroom.

Cons

Zero complaints about GoToWebinar. It provides everything we need to demo our latest products and marketing materials to our sales teams.

### "Workhorse Webinar Software"

October 23, 2018

4.0

This has been our workhorse webinar software for a couple of years. While other platforms have been hit-or-miss in terms of consistent connectivity, GoToWebinar never gives us trouble. Our customers and sponsors alike use the platform, and it's easy enough to use that someone unfamiliar with web conferencing can jump right in. There might be a couple software packages with more robust features, but for our money GoToWebinar delivers reliably.

Pros

We have never had a connectivity issue with GoToWebinar, and its interface is easy to understand and utilize.

Cons

Not the most features I've seen in webinar software, but there's something to be said for simplicity.

### "Your (Not So Much Features Though) Go-To Guy for Online events!"

February 13, 2023

4.0

We needed to transition to online events from live ones and GoTo is a Go-To Guy for this. Good software but less features compared to other options.

Pros

When COVID hit back 2020, GoTo webinar is one of the earliest players in the market (I'm specific to the COVID period) and I was given an opportunity to test and use their platform. A lot of comparison with other platforms but I can say that GoTo does the job well. Nothing really fancy on this platform compared to other ones. It is tough to give a 10/10 rating since there's a lot of features that can be added.

Cons

The connections sometimes lags and need to restart the application. I felt that it eats a lot of RAM so make sure your PC has good specs. Less features compared to other options.

### "One solution to promote, plan and execute the online conference and virtual events"

February 11, 2023

5.0

I personally like that we can get the deep insights of the webinar that how many persons are register, join or leave the online webinar which can give an idea to filter the audience. Even there is option to export the data to use later on.

Pros

Seamless features for collaboration with large number of participants. Easy to setup and excellent tool to be used professionally for video conferencing, online webinars, events and much more. Recording and uploading video is very easy to handle

Cons

Somehow integration with some third party website are lacking otherwise it's awesome to use as it allow up to 100 participants at a time even one can record it

### "GoToWebinar the best Webinar Platform I have come across"

April 25, 2019

5.0

Pros

This webinar platform is just the best we have used. We have webinars with our customers and potential customers once a week. We are able to record webinars for those not available at the time. We get nice reports on viewers and engagement. This helps a lot in seeing if we are going in the right direction. It is also very easy for our clients to get onto one of our webinars. Its as good as a click of a link and we have been told by customers that this has really made things easier and more convenient for them.

Cons

Sometimes if you are on an unstable internet connection you may have issues with GoToWebinar, but an upgrade of your internet connection will see you get back to that great webinar.

### "GoTo Webinar software review"

January 31, 2023

5.0

GoToWebinar is a user-friendly, simple platform for hosting several webinars. Recording, screen sharing, etc. The post-webinar analytics option is also excellent because it offers information on the attendance rate and audience engagement rate. An excellent tool with good audio and video capabilities overall.

Pros

I would say GoTo is pretty user-friendly, and has an intuitive interface. Easy scheduling with good reminders built in. It was easy to use with my audience and I have never have had any problems getting my attendees onto the system. And I can schedule meetings very quickly.

Cons

Make the web version of the software more like the desktop version so that users don't have to download the software in order to join in a webinar

### "Robust tool for hosting and recording webcasts"

September 12, 2018

4.0

We've found it to be a relatively cost-effective way to host and broadcast professional presentations with minimal effort. The controls don't require too much thought, meaning you can give your full attention to the content you're presenting instead.

Pros

It's pretty easy to get started, which is always appreciated, and the options to record and distribute recordings are also simple to use.

Cons

Much like any tool of this type, it is susceptible to internet connection issues that create lags, etc. I don't believe that's a problem with the tool itself - it's a common issue that can happen any time you use any tool like this. It's a chance you take!

### "Very easy for hosting webinars/online education courses"

November 19, 2018

4.0

Pros

Gotowebinar is great if you are needing to get a large group of people together to be able to see/ hear something. It allows you to share your screen with others and mute everyone else while you are discussing (they are able to chat if they have any questions- super helpful!) You are able to track who all has signed up for the webinar and send them reminders, etc. Gotowebinar makes it so easy to invite large groups of people by just sending a link.

Cons

It can be very confusing to know if you are sharing your screen, exactly what the others see (especially if its a powerpoint), if they can hear you, etc. It took a few tries to figure out what exactly they see because you cannot see it on your end. It is also pretty expensive.

### "An outstanding web conferencing platform."

January 14, 2023

5.0

Inflexible pay

Pros

It's ability to hold an unlimited number of individuals in a single session thus organizations can be able to hold an all inclusive meeting without limiting anybody.

Cons

Inflexible payment options. The platform does not provide a well defined payment option considering different people around the world use different currencies.

GoTo Webinar was a tool that was more in line with our needs to conduct webinars. If it was the basic video conferencing we might have stayed with Zoom. Expecially for conducting Webinars GoTo has the edge.

### "Better suited for larger presentations/conferences"

December 5, 2022

4.0

For large gatherings when a presenter will be speaking to a sizable audience, seeking for interaction with those they are speaking to, and using a presentation, GoTo Webinar is fantastic. When there are fewer people present, it could be less acceptable and not the best solution in that scenario.

Pros

It's the ideal solution for enabling workers to come together and work together on projects like team projects and assignments, as well as anything that enables users to share their desktop and learn from one another's work, like spreadsheets and presentations, as well as work assignments involving electronic work.

Cons

The analytics are really difficult to use on GoTo Webinar. The interface is quite outdated which does not give it a very premium feel to use, and it is on the expensive side.

### "GoToWebinar"

February 20, 2019

5.0

GoToWebinar has served us as an impeccable tool for bringing our office up to speed in the realm of online professional development. It is an inexpensive, time-effective way to pass information that keeps people from having to travel.

Pros

Our organization uses this software as a tool to get critical professional development information out to our hundreds of members on a biweekly basis. Its large capacity for attendees allows us to reach the breadth of our members with ease. It includes a wide array of analytics that allow us to not only track attendance, but also engagement in our webinars, providing us with almost instant feedback on our material.

Cons

One limitation that this software has is that we are only able to run one webinar at a time on the account. This issue is intuitive, and does not take away from the efficiencies it adds to my workplace. It is important, though to communicate well with fellow team members to avoid overlapping webinar schedules.

Pros

One of the best tool for e-learning. It has all the features you need from screen sharing to voip and even video call. Also gives lot of controls for the host to make you on control of the class. Ppl Can ask their. Doubts etc by pinging hosts of other attendees

Cons

No major issues only thing is that in order to use it each client need to install a quick utility to make it work - if it had supported without hard install it would have been geat
