Supports clear communication and uninterrupted collaboration even with limited network connectivity
Google Meet Workspace is the best app for meetings in the corporate scope because Microsoft Teams has many problems or issues with the app. The signal quality is a valuable feature. If you have low signal in your network or internet connection, Google Meet supports video calls better than Teams. Teams completely locks up with low network connection, and you need a good signal to use Teams. However, if you have low signal, Google Meet works better. The overall experience with Google Meet is better because you can use the app in an easy way. You find the buttons quickly without having to go through a lot of stages or processes. In Teams, you have to search a lot to make something because the experience is more difficult and complex. In Google Meet, if you want to share your screen, you just click one button and that is it. Screen sharing in Google Meet is easy to use, and the sharing screen is in high definition. Google Meet does not require a good signal connection. Google Meet works in low and medium connection, which is better for remote work. The intelligent noise cancellation feature is the best one. Sometimes you are working with other partners in the same place and you need to start a meeting with a client while in the same location with your other partners. You can turn on the noise cancellation and it works perfectly. Google Meet Workspace is a good solution. Google Workspace is very easy to integrate with other applications. For us, it is very easy to have Zoho One and make the meetings in Google Meet Workspace. The experience in general is good.

Clunky with poor interface, lacks sufficient functionalities; it did reduce need for in-person meetings
We're phasing out the use of GoToMeeting because of some of its deficiencies. It lacks ease of connectivity, calendar integrations, and third-party app integrations. The user interface is quite poor and needs to be reworked and the product is quite clunky in comparison to its competitors. It currently lacks the ability for sharing collaborative materials during a meeting. We also found that the ability to switch between audio and video configurations isn't as intuitive as in other applications. I generally do 20-30 hours of video conferencing a day, so it makes a difference to have these features. It doesn't integrate as easily into phone systems as well as other organizations and it doesn't integrate as easy into instant messaging and collaboration tools or into software solutions. In general, some of the functionalities need to be improved.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Google Meet Workspace is the best app for meetings in the corporate scope because Microsoft Teams has many problems or issues with the app."
"What I appreciate about Google Meet Workspace is the simplicity, first of all; it has pretty much all the features that I could use on either Zoom or Skype, and it is very simple."
"GoToMeeting's low latency is crucial because everybody is using VPN to connect to their PCs at work. The sound and video quality are solid, and the whiteboarding features were especially useful. The administrative side of it was fairly simple and intuitive to use."
"The most important feature for me was the iPhone app."
"It was just chosen because somebody at the company said, "We need a meeting thing. Hey, go find a meeting thing." It wasn't me, but somebody else in the organization was like, "Alright, let's use GoToMeeting. It's free.""
"I think all the features are very useful, especially the rooms features and we present with screen sharing. Instead of organizing conferences, we are able to do that online. This has been saving us from spending on travel. From the beginning of this year, because of GoToMeeting, I have canceled I think three or four business trips."
"I like GoToMeeting because it is lighter than other solutions, such as Webex."
"We don't have any link issues whether you use it to browser, or use it as a client. It worked perfectly fine for us."
"The key advantage of GoToMeeting is the ability to use it without installing anything."
"There is no lagging and the meeting interaction is seamless."
 

Cons

"What could be improved, I do not know the actual improvement yet, but when somebody sends me an email, I can just give you what I have on Outlook, Microsoft Outlook, and I can take that email and transform it into a meeting."
"There is no way to turn off that feature. Last week I was in my yoga class and I could not stop that function."
"The enrolment for a non-IT user should be easier. It should be simplified for non-IT users."
"The solution could scale a bit easier if you need to add more people to meetings."
"The solution must include archive options to save the recorded meetings for future reference. The recording functionality can benefit our team by improving how meetings are recorded and shared. Previously, only admins could record meetings, sometimes leading to issues if recordings were missed or not shared properly. The recent update now allows hosting GoToMeeting sessions with the ability to delegate recording rights to other team members."
"In addition to the features it already has, I think GoToMeeting should also have additional features that are not present at the moment."
"The product itself doesn't stand out against other options on the market."
"It is not so stable."
"Sometimes we'll run into issues where firewall rules aren't set correctly and won't work."
"We would like some improvement in the speed of initiating this solution, as it is currently fairly slow."
