I think the back end access as an organiser and the options of adding video and poll and the analytical report after the webianr
The control panel at the corner, the question and chat window should be little bigger
GTW solves my problem of automatic survey at the end for attendees and post webinar email to all as well.
We don't always need to login using an account to join a webinar. Just a webinar id is enough.
Slight buffering even when having moderate stable internet connection.
It solves problem of attending webinar, classes and other events efficiently since it allows more members to simultaneously watch the webinar than any other platform available
Able to invite and collaborate with multiple users in one efficient location.
Learning hurdles to functionality. Once you have a handle on how the tool works, the sky' is the limit.
I'm able to work remotely, and across multiple locations with efficient product for myself and clients.
Go to webinar is an easy to use platform. The site for at least me seems to never crash and it can maintain a good amount of traffic espadrilles during morning hours.
I can't say I dislike any aspect of this. It seems easy to use and others that are on the webinar end seem to find it easy to use compared to other platforms. Even students seem to find it easy.
I can give instructions on a course very easily and quick students can interact in real-time and it makes answering questions a snap. I can accomplish more work when I have everyone connected.
I like the fact that it helps me take notes of all attendees of the webinar- with access to poll results. This poll option is a very good upside of the go-to webinars as it makes it very easy to gauge the audience understanding or capture real-time data.
I observed no downsides whilst using it. I think the product was well developed. It could however be better if new features like roundtable rooms are added to enable team breakout during webinars.
Go-to webinar has helped me solve problems like effective communication with all workplace colleagues, company wide announcements, company wide brainstorming and company wide trainings. This has led to increased business performance overtime
it's simple yet reliable with no interruptions or issues
possibly lack of user-intuitive sharing capability
Meeting with companies who are weary of Zoom and other platforms. seems to be trusted
It was so easy to connect to any webinar
Getting disconnected sometimes from meeting
Meetings are easier to schedule
The best part is it can easily get integrated with Marketing Automation tools like Eloqua.
That it does not automatically fetches GTW Id in Eloqua for any webinar.
Easy and user friendly webinar hosting platform, syncing leads into Salesforce via Eloqua is quite good.
Easy for outside participants to join webinars
Lack of customization and branding opportunities
Patient communication and education
What I love about this app is that you can easily create and host live and pre-recorded events.
I have not encountered any problems with using this application.
I can easily navigate the app without the help of any. It's very convenient!
I like the product because I can have meetings and training without physically being in the same room as the vendors or users. This saves time and money for traveling
I haven't used it enough to verify if there are any dislikes. It seems like all the features work fine. I have used it with vendors and will be using this product more in the future.
I have been able to collaborate with vendors to learn about their products and view demos of the products. The benefit is, seeing products without having to travel or have physical meetings with vendors.
Helpful and good performance. Quickly functional
Nothings Special but if they add more features. Background removal
Taking webinars with team. Easily understood features
Presenting our software for demos and training.
The control panel sometimes is tricky to work with.
Being able to present demonstrations to a large group of people. It's easy to share my desktop and poll attendees.
I've used Go to Webinar for 15+ years at various companies and it has stood the test of time for consistency and reliability when it comes to a meeting platform. Particularly when COVID hit and work was forced to go completely digital, GTW didn't miss a beat and despite sampling other meeting platforms, GTW remains my platform of choice. It also provides the most comprehensive options in my opinion for hosting various audiences and speakers that need different access options and the ability to have redundancies on the operator side if someone is out.
The only thing I dislike is that the platform has looked the same for the past 15+ years (the plugin, not the web portion) and maybe that deserves a small facelift.
GoTo Webinar solves the issue of needing to host multiple presenters and also multiple organizers across an organization, no matter if they are internal or external.
Practical though passion-evoking, timely though timeless!
In fact, nothing. Believe me or not, there is absolutely nothing to dislike.
Personal as well as professional.
Stable and reliable solution, easy and simple to use. It has been a pleasant experience without major setbacks, it is true that some things are missing for my taste but the general functionality meets what I am looking for and solve in a fast and practical way.
Some inconveniences when presenting in full screen, during the last two years I have had some problems with some sound and microphone options
Alternative ways to search or locate secure remote sessions in the last two years I have not had major problems in communicating with people from other organizations and attending various events with great stability,
Ease of use. Stability of the platform and long track record for delivering this type of service
Really not much, but would like to see the web based version match all of the features in the downloadable application version.
Ability to continue to provide professional education to our members without the staff time and expense of conducting live, in person events. The big benefit is being able to record our webinars and then sell these after the fact as on demand programs.
It is set up primarily for Webinars, so that function works very well. It is easy to use.
Not much. It is not as great for other purposes.
We do webinars throughout the year to reach both our members and attract new ones. It just plain works.
Ease of use for attendees and panelists. It's very easy to allow panelists to share their screens for presentations. Automated emails used for reminders pre webinar and messages post webinar are great. We also love that we can share the webinar recordings.
Getting it to work on a Mac can be cumbersome the first time. Hitting the 'Start Broadcast' button starts the webinar immediately, it would be nice if there was an 'Are you Sure' prompt or something similar in case that gets hit by accident. Allowing presenters to test their audio and webcam with the software on their own would be amazing. We have to schedule test sessions with the speakers prior to be sure there aren't any issues with the software on their computers.
We were already hosting monthly webinars using GoTo. Once COVID hit, we've switched to weekly webinars to fill that gap in education and have had huge success.
I use GoToWebinar everyday, 3 times a day. The interface is easy to manage and has a professional look. The "Questions" panel captures crucial feedback from customers that enable me to run lead reports.
The platform expériences company wide issues more than any other platform I've used. However, their customer service department is responsive and they send me updates on the issues.
My company provides CPE credit for free to attendees around the country. This could not happen without the support of virtual platforms.
