A scalable and stable solution that offers good production support
I am impressed with the tool's production support.  The tool is slow in updating changes. It also has a poor dashboard operating system.  I have been using the product for five years.  I would rate the tool's stability a ten out of ten. I would rate the solution's scalability a ten out of ten.…

Pros

"I would absolutely recommend using GlobalMeet; it is a great solution that is easy and really makes meetings more enjoyable."
"We are a remote organization mostly, so all of our team meetings use this platform, allowing us to share screens, record meetings, and include everyone on the call."
"I am impressed with the tool's production support."
"GlobalMeet has been a great cost-savings for our company."
"Customer Service: Excellent. PGI is always improving and responsive to their customer's needs!"
"This is the future of modern business and networking."
"GlobalMeet has been wonderful and a great tool for my company to use."
"I love the Outlook toolbar that GlobalMeet has incorporated, as I use it to create announcements for web meetings, start my audio and web meetings with just a few clicks, have the program call me so I do not need to remember phone numbers and passcodes, see those attending my call, control noise by muting callers, and even record the call for later usage."
"I utilize ReadyTalk to train roughly 300 people monthly, my colleagues use it to host staff meetings, to supplement coursework from our online university, and to deliver organizational content to our constituent base."
"Chairperson controls are pretty user-friendly."
"Customer Service is the best."
"Using ReadyTalk has strengthened our webinar program at AMA."
"Using ReadyTalk allows us to provided effective trainings, makes our employees more productive, and safer by keeping them closer to home."
"We host 4 webinars a month using Share tools and have reached on some occasions more than 500 participants just by one invitation being shared through social media."
"We rely on webinars to generate leads for our business, so having a reliable solution was key for us."
"Customer Service: World-Class! Technical Support: World-Class!"
 

Cons

"We had issues of multiple people getting kicked off the call and/or the online meeting by the afternoon."
"I have noticed it crashing during some events."
"When you get a large number of users on GlobalMeet it tends to slow things down a little bit but with the support group at hand things picked back up quickly."
"I guess if I could recommend is to make sure that the polling tool functions properly as I've dealt with issues in the passed."
"I would like the presenter able to view the attendees list at all times without having to pause. The guest login could be a little easier."
"The tool is slow in updating changes. It also has a poor dashboard operating system."
"Recordings-the recording features malfunctions and it only allows you to store recordings for 30 days without an extra fee."
"I would like to see the reports available right after my call, instead of 24 hours later."
"I wish there wasn't the "arbitrary" 150 people cutoff."
"Compared to other webinar platforms, ReadyTalk's pricing is a bit high."
"Supporting PPT animations and direct upload of recordings to YouTube would be great."
"A few minor issues along the way."
"We'd like the joining process for presenters to be more seamless (and they are working on that)."
"I would love to see a lobby that attendees can wait in prior to starting the conference."
"Add animation capabilities!"
"You have to download a spreadsheet three times post-meeting if you want surveys, registration, attendance. Kind of tedious."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. I would rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten and it is yearly."
