Attend Meetings While on The Move
Web Conferencing has the potential to revolutionize how any company does business. Just like remote computer control programs can give access to personal computers from across the globe, web conferencing affords access to clients and colleagues spread out in far away offices across the country. Furthermore, sophisticated web conferencing programs allow for more than just “instant message” type communication. For example, GoToMeeting from Citrix, arguably the most sophisticated web conferencing program in the marketplace, allows all meeting participants to collaborate on pieces of work (in real time) by sharing desktops across computers, giving you remote access to client and colleague’s PC’s as well as their shining faces. This helps to increase productivity and create a more authentic virtual conference room feel, with papers, documents and business what-have-you’s easily within reach of any participant.GoToMeeting allows for meetings with up to 15 members in any individual session, all of whom can access the software from Windows, Macs, even iPads. The program is generally renowned for its user friendly interface, making it easy to host or join meetings online. Perhaps the largest concern with web conferencing as opposed to setting up shop in an actual conference room is the additional risk of technical difficulty. By all accounts, GoToMeeting is practically kink free, providing as reliable a space as its 4 walled counterparts. Aside from reliability, GoToMeeting provides a host of other benefits you might not think possible in the online realm, including live products demonstrations in real time, instant presenter interchange and fully integrated whiteboards with drawing tools.If you find yourself in need of a bigger virtual space (especially now that people make so many online friends), GoToMeeting’s Webinars are able to “seat” 1,000 attendees. GoToMeeting Standard costs 49 per month or an annual fee of 468.00 (20 savings). For Webinar capabilities, the cost rises to 99 per month or 948.00 annually (also saving 20).
