More informations about this product

Description

GoToMeeting is a web conferencing tool that allows 25 users and a host to collaborate securely on the web and over the phone. A host can invite users to participate in an online meeting on the GoToMeeting website that can be accessed through any Java-enabled web browser.

This offer provides access to a 90 percent discount on a one-year subscription for new GoToMeeting users at Citrix Online's current rates. After you request this offer and pay TechSoup's administrative fee, you'll also pay Citrix Online directly for the discounted subscription.

See below for more details about the subscription.

Benefits for Organizations

You can use GoToMeeting to:

  • Conduct online meetings and video conferences with remote users
  • Give impromptu online presentations
  • Provide online training to volunteers or other users
Major Capabilities
  • Audio options: The host's GoToMeeting software provides audio for all participants. Each attendee can choose free integrated VoIP services or toll-based phone conferencing using a randomly generated area code and phone number.
  • Desktop sharing: Hosts can share their computer's desktop with attendees for both viewing and collaboration. This allows all web participants to see the same slide show, desktop, or selected application in their web browsers.
  • Interactivity: Hosts can change presenters or transfer control to other attendees so they can work on the host computer as if sitting in front of it. Participants can communicate with each other through GoToMeeting's chat features or through a simultaneous audio conference.
  • Video conferencing: Up to six participants can share live video streams in a meeting with HDFaces high-definition video conferencing.
  • Encryption: Security features include:
    • Secure sockets layer (SSL) encryption on the GoToMeeting website
    • Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 128-bit encryption of the data stream, including keyboard and mouse input
    • Multiple passwords
  • Software integration: Microsoft Office users on Windows can collaborate on an open file by clicking a Meet Now link within Word, Excel, or PowerPoint.
