"Bloated, expensive, not particularly user friendly"

1.5/5

What do you like best about GoTo Meeting?

GoToMeeting has most of the features you want out of a meeting/webinar platform, with reasonably competitive pricing to boot. It boasts larger meeting sizes than Zoom, has screen-sharing and recording features, and even has cloud storage. The webinar add-on has some competitive advantages over Zoom, namely, being able to schedule multiple webinars and have unique links for each through Hubspot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

The User Interface is clunky, slow, and confusing. Attendees have to download the GoToMeeting app to join meetings or webinars, which would be okay if the user experience was acceptable. If you're dealing with older audiences, who aren't as technologically literate, explaining how to install, operate, and launch GoToMeeting can be extremely tedious. Additionally, GoToMeeting's video quality is not as high-fidelity as other platforms on the market. If you're in Sales, Marketing, or another client-facing role, these factors can impact the perception of your pitch or presentation and are worth considering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering GoTo Meeting:

If you're a small to medium-sized business, use Zoom. If you're a LogMeIn customer and want to keep the ecosystem pure, know you're not getting the best on the market. If you're in an industry like healthcare and are looking for a scalable solution for meeting patients or hosting meetings, GoToMeeting is better for your needs. But if you're meeting customers, clients, or prospects, Zoom has the better presentation overall. Spend your money on the clear market leader. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GoTo Meeting solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's a video conferencing and webinar solution. It's not as easily scalable as solutions like Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, but it gets the job done. It's helpful for enterprise-level organizations that need the bandwidth for thousands of people in a meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Go To Meetings - very flexible"

1.5/5

What do you like best about GoTo Meeting?

I like that Go To Meetings is a very flexible platform. You can have users call in, share screen with just audio, perform webinars that can be viewed or listened to, etc. I liked that the creators of certain webinars were able to easily record sessions and keep them so that if you missed the webinar, you were able to watch a recording of it later. This was a very helpful tool and didn't have lots of loading issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

That you need to plan for what you'll be using it for in advance. For example, if you decide you'd like a participant to be able to share their screen in the moment, that is not an option. You can use in browser, but I felt I had to download something which I don't always prefer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering GoTo Meeting:

I found this to be very user-friendly, however I am in my 20s and some of my older coworkers found it more challenging. I would recommend reading a few other reviews to see how this software fares for people who do not consider themselves tech savvy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GoTo Meeting solving and how is that benefiting you?

I mostly used GoToMeeting as a way to watch webinars at my job. Sometimes we watched them as a group and were able to use the call in for our entire conference room. It has a very nice chat/Q&A feature that is great for webinars. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My review of GoToMeeting"

2/5

What do you like best about GoTo Meeting?

GoToMeeting offers a wide range of features that other similar applications provide. These features include screen sharing, mobile conferencing, video conferencing, and video recording, to name a few. Joining meetings is fast and effortless and productivity is increased. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

GoToMeeting is a bit pricey compared to other video conferencing tools. There are better tools that offer more and are cheaper or even free. If price is not a factor for you, then GoToMeeting would be a great tool for your conferencing needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering GoTo Meeting:

GoToMeeting is a solid application; however, it is not cheap to use. In my opinion, other better tools are more friendly to use and more widely adopted by the general public. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GoTo Meeting solving and how is that benefiting you?

GoToMeeting allows you to connect with people over the internet. This is especially helpful during a global pandemic where people are getting more comfortable working remotely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gotomeeting seems antiquated"

1.5/5

I do like the outlook plug in and I like that the meetings autogenerate there for you and update as you do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

"It's not terrible, but it does what it needs to do"

1.5/5

What do you like best about GoTo Meeting?

The ability to remotely meet your clients. There is an option to either dial in, or click the link and use the hardware audio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

This software is not really user friendly. To the first time user, one might have challenges figuring out how to setup a meeting with out having to be in the meeting themselves. Most clients dial in to avoid any errors (mostly on their end). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GoTo Meeting solving and how is that benefiting you?

The only problem being solved is not having to physically meet during a pandemic. Group meetings are big plus while using this application. I liked the feature in which you can link this to your LinkedIn through the LogMeIn option. Coming from a technical standpoint, I notice this application uses a lot of memory (RAM) especially when using the video stream. It may lag a bit depending on the hardware you are using. From a user-friendly standpoint--it is not ideal for those who do not use the computer every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"GoToMeeting UI is large and frustrating to "hide" at times"

2/5

What do you like best about GoTo Meeting?

The ability to maneuver and manage while leading a meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

GTM made a UI change and there is a bar that I have to keep on moving "out of the way". Sharing my video slows down GTM. Meeting transcriptions are not useful at times. I'd prefer to have a better transcription to search on key words. Creating ad-hoc meetings seem to be time-consuming and must occur AFTER the start time. For example, if it's 2:02pm, I'd like to be able to start meeting time within 5 minutes at 2:00pm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
