Communications & Collaboration Suite Overview

What is Communications & Collaboration?

GoTo Connect is all-in-one communications software built for SMBs. It gives workers one tool for communication, available to them anywhere, on any-device. You can Phone, Meet & Message. Phone GoTo Connect includes an Enterprise-grade phone system with 100+ features, and includes inclusive minutes for local, long distance and international calls. Meeting Power your Meetings through Video and Audio Conferencing with screen share and advanced collaboration capabilities while you meet with up to 250 people. Messaging Message and share files 1:1, in a group chat or a team channel. Message people outside your organisation with inclusive SMS capability. GoTo Connect has been built across the fundamental principles - to be Simple, Secure & Flexible. Simple GoTo Connect is the easiest phone system to manage on the market. We create simple admin through our unified administration portal – that is recognized by admin users time-and-time again as the most intuitive, thanks to unique features like our Visual Dial Plan editor (no other major competitor offers this; and perfect for SMBs that are forced to regularly double-hat roles/responsibilities) Secure GoTo Connect customers secure peace of mind as we reduce unnecessary headaches where possible: Throughout Covid-19 and the surge to Video Conferencing platforms, our relentless focus on our stability of service saw us become the most reliable and therefore trusted video-meetings platform when compared to the competition. Working from home can be a challenge with weak wi-fi, GoTo Connect is one of the most bandwidth friendly products on the market, with some of our leading competitors requiring up to 50% more for Video and Screen Share. This has been proven by independent sources. Should our customers need us, they can reach us, anytime, anywhere – 24/7. Our customer support is yet again, consistently rated no.1 by end-users on review sites like G2 Crowd, TrustRadius, SoftwareAdvice, GetVoIP and more!. Flexibility GoTo Connect gives you the flexibility to make and a receive a phone call, host a team meeting, conduct an internal townhall, organize and host a Virtual Event for customers, join an outbound sales campaign, train your new recruits and allow them to form a ‘newbie chat group’. All in one app. You always have the right tools for the right use-case. The most advantageous and differentiating factor of flexibility though – is that as a business leader, you now get both your Unified Communications stack, coupled with GoTo Resolve – the only comprehensive IT management and support product on the market built for SMBs – and that flexibility for SMBs means that there is NO feature bloat… only what you need, to help drive your bottom-line success (the ultimate flexibility-test).

What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

I find that overall, GoTo is easy to navigate and seems to be user friendly. This program is something that I use daily in my work. I do enjoy that it is web based and it is not necessary for me to download software on my computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

There are often times when the software is glitchy. This results in missed calls on my end which can be frustrating sometimes.

Sometimes when I reach out to customer service, I am not always provided with help. The issues tend to be blamed on internet issues when indeed the issues are the same across the board for all of my CSRs and we are located in various locations across the country. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I don't really see it as solving any problems. But rather, a utilization for my work day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GoTo Meeting?

GoTo Meeting is the best in terms of sound and image quality, live broadcast in real time. I love the ease of organizing meetings and sending invitations and attachments via secure digital links. Accepting the invitation is direct, which makes it easy for invitees to participate effectively. Distributing roles during virtual meetings is easy, as the microphone can be turned off and transferred to another participant easily. I love sharing presentations that help provide a smooth explanation to participants. The documentation capabilities are great and useful in documenting what was agreed upon during the meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

No difficulties at all with GoTo Meeting. The smooth participation enhanced the value of our meetings or while working remotely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

GoTo Meeting made participating in virtual meetings more fun and useful. Its noise isolation and real-time participation capabilities enabled us to complete many tasks efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

I love the flexibility of having an app on my phone as a business phone line. I can work from anywhere any time, and still support our customers AND connect with our internal team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

I use my iPhone exclusively for GoTo. We take approx. 50-70 incoming calls per day.

When an incoming call comes in, I wish that all options were functional - Mute, Hold, Transfer. When I am ready for those items, I have to unlock my phone, which delays the action. I would love if when an incoming call is answered (from the iPhone being locked), that all phone options were automatically avaialble on my screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

GoTo Connect allows multiple team members, sometimes in different locations, to support all of our existing customers and new customer calls. Previously, our small business only had (1) singular phone that would then require call backs from various lines. When we dial out, customers see our main line. When incoming calls are received, they can reach ANY of our members and get connected to the right person to solve their problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is intuitive and complete, it does not require a long learning curve or technical knowledge to use. On a daily basis, it ends up becoming a great ally in ensuring high availability, whether internally with other employees or with customers and suppliers. All with high voice quality and resources. In addition, the solution is easy to implement as it is in the cloud and also has several integrations, which allows the work to be centralized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

I believe that until today I have not had any problems with the solution. Maybe what could be improved is the question of pricing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to use, both for hosts and participants. Easy to schedule meetings and join meetings.

Audio and video quality is better compared to other tools like zoom.

It supports locking of meeting and SSL encryption.

Screen sharing is possible with goto meetings.

Third party Integration support like chat apps and office 365 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoTo Meeting?

Cost of the tool is very high compared to competetors.

Support for only 250 participants so in some cases like large webinars it is not suitable.

Limited storage for recording and have to manage external storage Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Goto meeting we used for video conferencing which helped in team collaboration and effective communication. As a technical team we hosted almost daily number of meetings for code review, pair programming, sprint calls like retro, standup, refinement and other tech session calls and business discussions.

Scheduling meeting on goto is easy and inviting participants is straight forward. This tool helps in presentations and , recording sessions for future references and also mainly the participants can take screen control or annotate on the screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GoTo Meeting makes online communication so safe by providing very powerful security and privacy features making it possible for me to host all my meeting discussions including the private abd confidential ones. It is also so easy to join meeting with the one-time click link and it does not require any app to join meetings.

GoTo Meeting video and audio quality are so satisfying and the sound enhancement tools like background noise removal helps to ensure uninterrupted meeting sessions. It also has a meeting playback tool that allows recording of meeting sessions for referencing.
