"I like GoToMeeting because it is lighter than other solutions, such as Webex."
"The most valuable feature is the dial-in capability."
"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."
"GoToMeeting's security is very good. I've never known anybody to crash a GoToMeeting."
"Screenshare is the most valuable feature as well as the number of meeting participants possible in a meeting. It also has good quality."
"The key advantage of GoToMeeting is the ability to use it without installing anything."
"It's cost-effective."
"Even for somebody who does not have a lot of experience, they can easily use it."
"It has benefited my organization because I can use it on the phone, I can use it on a laptop, wherever I want. The communication channel is very easy now and I can call and chat. It's experienced. Together, my team manages everything. It's very easy."
"I like the fact that it opens up your video conferencing, and, in many cases, the audio at the same time."
"The simplicity and ease of use are the most valuable features. It's so much easier and quicker than writing an email to someone and waiting for them to read it."
"The most valuable feature is how useful it has been for virtual meetings during the pandemic."
"It's a good product, we like using it."
"The deployment is very fast."
"People are now able to virtually collaborate with their staff and have a conference call. We don't need a phone line to make that conference call and we are saving on that. People are able to share their presentations. Also, they can chat using the Skype"
"The calling features are most valuable, especially now as we are working remotely."
"I don't know whether it is an issue or not but my boss was asking me if person one is in one room, and another person wanted to use another room at the same time, I don't know whether it is possible."
"GoToMeeting breaks down a lot. We're not sure if it's breaking down, but we start getting very erratic community channels. I don't know if it's because of GoToMeeting or if we're not buying enough bandwidth. Maybe it is just the infrastructure that it's running on. I'm not quite sure."
"The newer user interface takes a bit longer to get used to."
"In addition to the features it already has, I think GoToMeeting should also have additional features that are not present at the moment."
"The solution could scale a bit easier if you need to add more people to meetings."
"I didn't like the fact that they tried to make their new version look like Zoom."
"Manageability needs to be improved."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"There are issues with the bandwidth, particularly for external meetings,"
"The ease of configuration or the lack of decent tooling to pinpoint your problems is probably its biggest issue."
"There are not many options, in terms of some other third-party integration."
"We have found that there is a lag because it cannot integrate with the internal landline."
"We have had trouble with scalability when trying to host large meetings."
"It would be ideal if the solution could make instant messages more permanent. Currently, if you close the conversation, you lose the instant messages that you shared during the meeting. If those could last beyond the meeting, that would be a great addition, due to the fact that frequently, people give each other key details, important information, or email addresses, etc., during the meeting. If you don't write it down during the meeting, after the meeting closes, it's gone forever. That can be quite frustrating."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
"We need a feature where you can virtually raise your hand to silently let the presenter know that you have a question."
