Top Rated GoTo Webinar Alternatives
GoToWebinar is a fantastic large scale meeting solution tool that my organization uses to host and attend meetings. Overall, I have been extremely impressed by the stability and quality of the platform for large events. I work in an organization that operates across four continents and GoToWebinar has made meeting together and collaborating on projects easier. Additionally, the platform is fairly easy to use and has been consistent in terms of it's overall performance on our Network. The ability to share and add to calendars works well and integrates with our mailing and calendar systems nicely. The plugins and API's do well to share across a variety of other platforms that we use daily. Overall, I have really enjoyed the process of hosting and attending meetings on the platform.

GoToWebinar is not as customizable as other platforms on the market. I have noticed that landing pages for the platform are relatively bare bones compared to the other competitors in the digital meeting space. Additionally, I would recommend any IT team to review network requirements to ensure that everyone has access if they are on a restricted network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With GoTo Webinar, we can schedule live events for our prospective customers and conduct events with easy-to-use software which also allows us to take up questions from viewers. We can also keep track of how many internal and external viewers are attending the live event and monitor engagement.
It also allows us to record past events to review later Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything else. When you are looking for a webinar platform, GoTo looks very good; great reviews, many installs, and the website looks great... It was not what I expected at all.
For starters, it is not usable in the browser, you have to download the software, and it looks from the 2000s, not very user-friendly at all. To set up a different background for your camera, you should download another software, but that's not all; you should pay $45 to use it! Just for a background.
The attendees can not participate in the chat.
It is not compatible with different devices and operating systems. I knew it was not compatible for my laptop (I was the organizer), lucky enough I could find a new one. However, one of the panelists in my webinar, who had a compatible laptop, couldn't even participate...
In general terrible user experience.
On the support side, if you pay monthly instead of annually, the only way you have to contact support is by calling a number (coincidence, the free toll number didn't work? just the paid number). The answers I would get were not very solutions driven. Ultimately, they gave me an email address, but I still would get "no-reply" emails back... At least the email answers were better.
