### "Great Product!"

March 19, 2019

5.0

All experiences have been positive, from an organiser standpoint, but also as an attendee.

Pros

If you like GoToMeeting then you'll almost certainly like GoToWebinar as well. There's a similar look and feel, but with many more attendees permitted. It's got some excellent features which have been proven to be perfect for large company training programmes and generally straightforward to use. I love the ability to see attendee interest levels!

Cons

There's very little not to like to be perfectly honest.

### "GoToWebinar"

July 23, 2020

5.0

I've used GoToWebinar to host large webinars and I feel comfortable that it will support me

Pros

GoToWebinar is perfect for hosting webinars. Especially those with many people. The functionality it offers well exceed this of it's competitors. you can even tell when someone has clicked away from the webinar and isn't fully participating or paying attention.

Cons

I really like GoToWebinar and I have experienced a few bugs. You definitely have to test it out before you use it and get the lay of the land.

### "GoToWebinar - Simple Process that Works"

August 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

A software product that just works with ease. Setting up a webinar is so easy. It allows you to send invites directly from the platform. You can click on the email link and get automatically connected to the webinar without having to dial in or have difficult logins. All users are muted at the beginning of the webinar which is a huge plus.

Cons

When using a mobile phone the connection can be sketchy cutting in and out.

### "Meets all the basic requirements albeit feels dated"

October 19, 2021

3.0

GoToWebinar offers the set of features you need to host live webinars and recorded sessions at a fairly competitive price. While it doesn't feel as savvy as some of the newer platforms in the market, it gets the job done.

Pros

It can be integrated with other forms, which is great to sync registrations with marketing automation platforms. The platform feels reliable in terms of connectivity/streaming for speakers and audiences as well. Analytics provided for events/across events are pretty useful.

Cons

The UI feels outdated, almost like it never came out of the late 2000s. Can feel a bit clunky to use at times, especially for the hosts/panelists. For the audience, the mobile app could be better too. Automated email customization is a little limited.

Combination of pricing and features.

### "Easy Webinars With GoTo."

June 11, 2021

5.0

GoToWebnair is fairly easy even for a first-time user, I have come to rely on this program's capabilities to connect with my clients and present business proposals virtually anywhere. I strongly recommend it for it is a capable program.

Pros

Easy to use and easy to navigate. It has a user-friendly interface. Supports more than 800 attendees, provides a registration page and registration management tools, attendee reporting tools, and analytics tools are available. I can record sessions, a chat feature is included, and also Question & Answer feature is available.

Cons

Occasional glitchy audio connection, I really don't know what could be the cause, if it's the network connection or the program itself. Anything else is just fine with me as it serves the purpose it was meant for. I usually don't encounter any disruptions at all.

### "Reliable Webinar Tool"

July 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

It's reliable. We were previously using Skype, which frequently had breakdowns and made it a hassle for users to either access a webinar, or would simply perform poorly during the webinar. It was a risk we weren't willing to take after a few webinars. Furthermore, the reporting helps you learn about the content of your presentation and how engaged users were throughout, providing you with actionable data for future webinars. Audience polling and questions are also very easy on the end-user side.

Cons

It's a little expensive for a smaller company who may only host 4-6 webinars a year. That said, the ease of use could make it worth the cost, depending on the reliability of your current software. The branding of some of the emails also leave a little to be desired.

### "GoToWebinar is great for audio/video presentations to large audiences"

January 1, 2019

5.0

Our company has used this to provide information about different products we offer (updates, tips and tricks, etc.)

Pros

Personally, I love that you can save the presentations as MP4s and house the files in a location of your choice. We will keep MP4s of the presentations as training and informational tools in our learning management system for viewers who were unable to attend the live webinar.

Cons

Based on my experience, there is nothing that I dislike.

### "Using GoToWebinar"

December 6, 2022

4.0

For those comfortable with the software it is easy to use and functional.

Pros

This software is pretty intuitive and easy to implement into our business.

Cons

Not many people use this software compared to Zoom and it makes it a little clunky when you get new users on who are not familiar with it.

Reason for choosing GoTo Webinar

We use it when we have groups of users familiar with the software.

### "Easy loading conference app for all the conference meeting and webinar needs"

December 11, 2019

5.0

Overall, the experience has been smooth. Attended many webinars using GoToWebinar. Wish it had a pure web based option though.

Pros

1) Loads fast unlike any other webinar apps 2) No lag and heavy ram usage like Skype 3) Q/A is a breeze

Cons

1) Initial installation of the software 2) Purely web browser based webinar would be even more better. Directly attending the webinars in website is always easier than installing an extension and installing a software.

### "Gotowebinar for effective global communication"

July 21, 2019

5.0

Pros

I have used Gotowebinar to conducting training. It is a great software for this purpose. It is simple to invite those you want to attend and it also sends them a reminder closer to the meeting time if you choose this option. Better still, I am able to see who attended and who was engaged in he meeting. These features are great to use when analysing your data for marketing purposes.

Cons

The fact that people attending need to register is a the only negative I can think of as this makes the process of getting an attendee long and this sometimes leads to loss of attendees.

### "Great Webinar Application for Business "

January 24, 2019

3.0

Pros

Great software to host interactive webinars. Gives users the ability to ask questions via polls, chat or over VOiP/phone. I used this as a federal contractor and trained hundreds of government workers with interactive presentations and trainings.

Cons

You cannot play a video and hear sound so if you are doing a training that requires a video or is hosted on a platform such as YouTube the attendees cannot hear the sound.

### "Still the gold standard for online training and webinars!"

June 25, 2018

5.0

Extremely professional webinars, whether 10 or 10,000 attendees!

Pros

Man, they really have this process done right. Connection, video, downloads, and chat functions are really slick. I've used GTW both as a presenter and an attendee, and it's always smooth.

Cons

No matter how much prep you give people, some non-techies get stuck with the software. And the price is a bit steep, since there are so many competitors popping up ever month.

### "GoToWebinar is a great free software for any person wanting to broadcast something to an audience."

June 22, 2018

5.0

We are able to have meetings and learning sessions any time with any one we want to invite.

Pros

I like most about this software is that I can join webinars from anywhere and be able to communicate and learn as if I was in a classroom. Also, it is free, which makes it even better to use.

Cons

There really isn't much I don't like since it is free. However, it would be nice if you can just download the slides from a powerpoint if its being shown.

### "GoToWebinar Review"

July 21, 2020

4.0

I don't do webinars that often but this has always been reliable for when I need to plan them for sales teams. If you're new to planning webinars, GoToWebinar makes it easy to set it up and plan it out.

Pros

This is an easy to use tool for planning webinars. It allows you to customize a landing page for people to sign up on, creates links for you to send out, customize the email with the link for you to send out, schedule reminders for participants, and so on. Not to mention, the quality and reliability of the webinar is pretty good too.

Cons

Not many cons to list, perhaps some more customization with the sign-up landing page and emails could be helpful.

### "Love this product!"

September 12, 2020

5.0

It is a great product that I would highly recommend to any organization that does webinars often.

Pros

This is the premier product to host webinars on. I could not be more satisfied with it. It generally runs without glitches and you can have a fairly large number of people on each webinar.

Cons

It can be a bit on the pricey side, however I do think that it is worth it for this high quality of a product.

### "The premier web-meeting app"

February 2, 2019

4.0

Pros

Very simple to use, right down to sending invitees an outlook calendar invite to save in the app including a link to click at the given time. Login amounts to clicking that link and specifying your mic and webcam, as applicable. Offers the ability to enable/disable mic and webcam on the fly. There's also a desktop version, but I have only used the web app.

Cons

Connection quality can be spotty, but I blame that more on user end than GoToWebinar.

### "A must for Webinars!"

September 25, 2018

5.0

I signed up for webinars to further educate myself about latest web ideas/marketing ideas/software ideas, etc and from the very first time utilizing this service, I found it easy to use. I would most definitely recommend it to my colleagues and friends.

Pros

It was so incredibly user friendly. I get an email from the person/company hosting the webinar, click the link and follow the onscreen instructions.

Cons

I really don't have any cons to the software. I have yet to find anything that I dislike about it.

### "GoToWebinar Review "

February 17, 2021

5.0

We have had an overall great experience with GoToWebinar.

Pros

Super easy for both the user and the developer. I have heard nothing but good things about the user side of this software, and I would have to agree from the developer side. It makes webinars very user-friendly and makes everything easy to access.

Cons

It is definitely a little more pricer than other similar products, but I think in the end, you will get a great return on your investment when you use this software. You'll be getting more people on your webinars who received your quality information, thus being interactive with your product or service.

### "A solution for every webinar "

May 22, 2019

5.0

I really like GoTo Webinar. It's easy to set up and run webinars (big or small). It offers a lot of advanced features, like custom email templates, API integration, and reporting.

Pros

I like the ability to clone past webinars, which reduces time spent setting up email templates and follow up schedules. I also love its API integration with other marketing tools e.g. you can directly link a CRM form with GoTo webinar registration, which makes life easier for the end user.

Cons

It took me a while to figure out some of the reporting (for example, finding a list of questions asked during the webinar).

### "GoToWebinar Review"

May 7, 2019

5.0

It's definitely a good application if you are expecting to host webinars. After using other software like this and GoToWebinar, this is the preferred application.

Pros

I really like the features that give you control over the webinars. For instance whenever we use it for our monthly meetings, we can mute everyone except for those who are presenting and then un-mute them whenever it's time for the group collaboration. Another thing I like is that you can change the presenter's screen to any other user is just a couple of clicks; that comes in handy whenever there may be more than 1 presenter, but they are a few states apart.

Cons

I don't really like that something has to be downloaded onto everyone's computer. Even though it's not "that big" of a download I wish that it was a web based app. I really only notice this problem whenever we have someone new joining our called for the first time, we'll have to wait a minute or two to get going because they have to download the app.
