Keith Thompson asked:
In the early days finding a web conferencing service that did anything beyond the basic was not easy. Now it’s the norm! Especially with a company like Go To Webinar and GoTo Meeting. These web conferences were often held on Internet forums and bulletin boards that could only support the most basic text conversations. Graphics and other data could not easily be shared between colleagues. In recent years, however, a web conferencing service like Go To Webinar has changed the landscape forever. These web conferencing products have become considerably more advanced. Here we’re going to take a look at the types of applications available to business people.
The primary method of web conferencing is still screen sharing, though this is becoming more and more advanced as time goes by. What this means is that colleagues on different sides of the world can effectively see what each other are displaying on their computer screens. These web conference applications, like Go To Webinar and Go2Meeting, make this possible by allowing clients and colleagues separated by great distance able to communicate and share data at the click of a mouse.
While there are still business people who prefer to use telephones for their voice communication with clients and employees, the gold standard on the web is fast becoming voice conversations over the Internet using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). VoIP technology allows people to make telephone calls using the Internet to anywhere in the world. The primary benefit of this, of course, is that the calls usually cost nothing – which is a major consideration when a typical web conference could last many hours.
The advantage of using a service like Go To Webinar and Goto Meeting is that they host it; you simply access the conference via your computer and/or phone, and once you enter the code, you’re in. They offer features such as customized branding, one-click webinars, polling, desktop recording for playback at a later time, detailed reports and much more.
Using a web conferencing service like Go To Webinar will save you loads of money on time, travel, and training. It also comes with a free license for the companion product Goto Meeting. Make sure to take advantage of their free trial today!
