### 5/5 — Great way to communicate.

*2020-07-08, version 7.5.0*

I enjoyed the webinar from World Wide Travel. We could type questions and answered right away. Getting on was relatively easy. They tell you to do a test run and during that time you’re able to download their app. Then you go back to the e-mail and just hit join meeting and your on. It tells you if the host hasn’t come on yet and that she’ll be on momentarily. I would use this again, I was pleased listening and seeing pictures, it was almost like a live presentation.

### 5/5 — Author Speaker Corporate Trainer

*2020-07-02, version 7.5.0*

GoToWebinar has been extremely helpful in my weak internet home office!  It has turned down time into productive learning experiences.

The variable presentation modes of video, audio over PowerPoint, and interactive features make it memorable.  With these tools, it is almost like being there!  Though I enjoy seeing other faces on Zoom, sometimes I find that distracting.

For high focus, interactive learning, I rate it 10!

### 5/5 — Nice and Easy

*2020-06-23, version 7.5.0*

I have used a few other type of webinars, this is the first time I have used particular app.  It is very easy to use, just download and go.  It is easy to figure out how to ask questions, get the attachments, etc.  The sound and picture quality are great (remember to turn off your other notifications during the broadcast).  I would definitely recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Totally impressed by this platform!

*2020-05-28, version 7.4.7*

I just started using this platform about 3 months ago & I wish I knew about it sooner!

The clarity of both the video and audio is quite resilient, even when my bandwidth or cellular connections are fluctuating.

I highly recommend it to anyone or any organization looking to use a reliable AV web hosting platform.

### 5/5 — Best

*2020-04-28, version 7.4.7*

Clearest picture and audio of any meeting platform I have participated in since schools shut down March 13. No blurriness or messed up sound. Like watching tv, very clear picture and sound. I attend a minimum of 7 meetings or webinars a week. Most of my meetings meet on a Google platform, which is horrible. A few on Zoom, not bad, some small issues occasionally. Only one company uses this platform. Far superior. No issues at all.

### 5/5 — The BEST Webinar site

*2020-04-08, version 7.4.7*

During my Pandemic Confinement, I’ve watched 1-5 webinars 6-7 days per week! I now believe that GoToWebinar is the easiest, clutter free, responsive and logical way to watch a webinar. I can’t say enough about the beauty in simplicity of their site design. I’m not a computer person so my perspective is from the point of a reader who wants to dive into the subject and not waste time navigating through the obstructive technology to realize my learning goal. Cheers for GoToWebinar‼️

### 5/5 — A great way to learn...

*2020-03-17, version 7.4.7*

The COPD Foundation had a webinar, this evening, on COVID19 that was my first.  While this time it was slides and audio, it was most comprehensive and helpful, and very easy to use.  I can see I’ll be attending more webinars, as I hear of them.

I didn’t need to worry over signing in for the event, as a link, especially for me, in the email confirmation for the webinar, took me right to where I needed to be.  I still don’t know what all those little hearts are, but most of the features on the display panel were pretty intuitive.

### 5/5 — A Must-Have App for Business Owners

*2020-02-11, version 7.4.7*

Attending a webinar using this app is so incredibly easy. Once registering via a link in an email for instance, the user is given an option to have webinar info populated in the calendar. Should the webinar be about to begin or is already in progress the attendee is taken automatically to the presentation. Both audio and video are excellent whether viewing on ones phone, tablet, laptop or desktop computer. The interface is very user-friendly. Whether a novice and using the app for the first time or a seasoned user this app is a must. I use it in my office and on the go. In fact after meeting with a colleague or client it is so enjoyable to not have to be in a rush to return to my office to attend a scheduled webinar. I can easily plug in my earbuds and attend the session without interfering with others around me. Do yourself a favor and download this app!!!

### 5/5 — Quick upload

*2019-12-12, version 7.4.6*

Easy to use for webinar.  Needed link from email of host to enter. Was able to choose auto mute upon entering.  I did not try to raise hand or ask questions so I’m not sure how that would work.  I am working remotely in a new town with less office electronics and devices and adequate email for my laptop so I was able to participate fully with my iPad mini.

### 5/5 — Easy and versatile

*2019-12-06, version 7.4.6*

I love this app and have attended many presentations this way. There are many options for presenters and attendees. Such as the ability to control both incoming and outgoing audio, and video. The app is simple and self-explanatory, easy to quickly test and discover each feature. I like the ability to watch the presenter and switch to the screen or visual aspects of the presentation they are sharing. The ability to provide full anonymity is great! I didn’t know or see or hear anyone in a group webinar. But in a business meeting, am able to see and hear (and be seen and heard) as needed. Both presenter and attendees have control.

### 5/5 — App represents the best of tech

*2019-11-06, version 7.4.6*

This is how I always think apps should work, but they do rarely do. I was in the car, behind schedule, and thought I would take a pass at listening to my webinar as I drove. My car has wifi (as do many new cars) so I knew it was theoretically possible, but expected barriers within the app. There were none. I clicked on the link in my email, my meeting popped up instantly, started playing via Bluetooth, and was flawless. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Super Star!

*2019-08-21, version 7.4.1*

6:30 am is very early for me to get into a webinar.   At 6:29 I get on my ipad, click the link and I discover I had not downloaded the app!   I click on the “get app” button, it downloads, I click ... I’m put directly into the webinar.  Yeah!  The transmission had clear visually and sound.   Questions were easy to post.  Will absolutely look into using this service when I am conducting a webinar.  

Thanks folks,
G

### 5/5 — Easy to use after download

*2019-08-15, version 7.4.1*

I’ve used GoTo Webinar 3-4 times now. Frustrating when used first time. Had not been told to go early to site and download the program. Took a few minutes to load, then a few glitches. After that first use, GoTo Webinar has been so easy and excellent for educational and training webinars. Great app once downloaded!

### 5/5 — Great experience

*2019-07-05, version 7.4.0*

Are use a webinar for a vocational nursing class orientation. The meeting was at 8 o’clock in the morning when I went to click on the link I immediately was in the orientation the video quality was good I didn’t miss Any verbiage due to Internet quality. I like the tabs at the bottom where you were allowed to send questions there’s also a button on top are you raise your hand that you have something to say it’s a great first time experience for me definitely will keep the app on my phone

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — On older iPad frozen at iOS 9 by Apple, get msg must upgrade to iOS 10 level

*2017-12-21, version 6.4.0.33*

Help!  App won't let me sign up for any new webinars, until I upgrade to latest app version requiring iOS 10 ... although my older iPad was frozen at iOS 9 by Apple, so CANNOT install iOS 10, and thus NOT able to run apps requiring iOS 10.  

PLEASE LET THOSE OF US WITH OLDER DEVICES WHICH DON'T SUPPORT iOS 10, TO CONTINUE USING PREVIOUS VERSION OF APP (which is still working fine for webinars I'd registered for earlier).

(app support useless: I explained problem 4x over 20 minutes - but rep ignored everything I said, repeatedly telling me that I needed to upgrade to iOS 10 app anyway. I asked to speak to supervisor, was kept waiting 40 minutes while rep repeated same over & over, then told me supervisors too busy & one would call me back - that was a week ago, with no callback.)

### 2/5 — Perhaps it Wasn’t Written for Safari & a Mac

*2021-08-27, version 7.6.1*

I have a Mac Air and I use Safari. I have the latest versions installed as soon as they are released, but I hate GOTOWEBINAR. Whenever I turn on the app the sound from my computer starts popping and has a lot of static. The only way I can use it is to turn the sound off on my computer and then bring up the app on my iPhone.   Once my iPhone is turned on I can watch on my computer and listen through my iPhone. We’ve tried this several times and always get the same results. 

If anyone has a better solution, I’d love to hear it.

### 3/5 — Zoom is better

*2020-06-23, version 7.5.0*

This app used to be the only game in town and as a result they got a little full of themselves and are clearly too slow to adapt to needed changes in the way we now function. I’d say they really missed out on a great opportunity for growth. But they stuck with the same old plan. With this app you simply have to jump through too many hoops to be able to set up a meeting, host, be a panelist, view all of the panelists. It’s ridiculous. With Zoom, you simply download the app, set up a meeting or join the meeting and (snapping my finger) there everybody is! And you can share your screen. No headache. It couldn’t be any more user-friendly. But this app? No, “you have to be administrator to set up a group meeting“ nonsense. What is that anyway?? Especially when it is almost impossible to become an “administrator.”I must’ve spent an hour trying to figure out how I become an administrator. Is that a paid feature or something? I’ll be happy if I never have to open this outdated dinosaur of an inconvenience again.

### 3/5 — If only....

*2018-12-12, version 7.3.0*

It was better then other webinar platforms(for mobile) in terms of connection, besides for about 3 minutes in the middle of the webinar when it went black(No video or Audio)screen it was a smooth connection. I would also give a higher rating if like other platforms u can see comments and unlike any other platforms/Apps u were able to interact/have full access to webinar like on a laptop/desktop computer.

### 4/5 — Webinar and iPhone

*2022-01-28, version 7.6.1*

I gave 4 stars and not 5 because I had issues seeing videos the demonstrator posted. I could not enable or see videos whatsoever. Also I was not able to comment or post a question to the speaker from my iPhone. Otherwise I could see and hear very well and Webinar did a great job with it Overall. Thank you 
Teepa Snow, State serv, Webinar and others who put this session together; Fantastic information for healthcare workers and family members!

### 4/5 — Straightforward & Effective even at 4 AM

*2020-12-05, version 7.5.1*

Attended a webinar at 4am that was hosted in a different timezone. All I did was wake up, click the link in the email, downloaded to my phone and joined in. Didn’t need to fuss about because like I said 4 AM🥴. Everything was pretty clear save for a couple of disturbances, the format was clean and intuitive because again... 4AM so it didn’t cause me any frustration. Much easier to use than some other webinar services. Especially at 4 AM.

### 4/5 — Prevent meeting disturbance

*2020-08-08, version 7.5.0*

I wish there was a way to test my connection and the webinar functions before joining a meeting because when I “put my hand up” and got called on by the speaker unmuting my microphone I inadvertently became disconnected from the meeting while stumbling to figure how to get my microphone to work. I missed the answer to my question while trying to reconnect. I was then scared to put up my hand again in fear of disconnection. Otherwise I found the experience and ease of use quite worthy of recommendation.

### 4/5 — Works well but...

*2019-12-25, version 7.4.6*

App works really well for what it dose but...  I would love to see some quality of life improvements. The number one feature I’d love to see added is being able to cast and airplay to smart tv’s that support it. Watching on my iPhone or iPad is fine if I don’t have a way to do it. But if I’m in front of tv that supports casting or airplay it should would be preferable to do that. But like I said it dose fit the bill for what it dose.

### 4/5 — Pretty good app

*2018-12-09, version 7.3.0*

I joined as an organizer using this app and it worked fairly well. I was able to switch presenters which was cool. The only feature I missed is the ability to monitor and respond to attendee questions. While it doesn’t make sense if you’re the presenter, when we use this for webinars in listen-only mode, we always have another organizer monitoring questions and posing them to the presenters. This avoids the clumsy or awkward moments when a presenter is trying to talk and sift through questions at the same time.

### 4/5 — Generally smooth, seamless experience...

*2018-07-26, version 7.2.0*

The only problem when running the app on an iPhone 6S with iOS 10.3.3 and limited available space, while using cellular data were a couple of quick and minor interruptions. They didn't seem to interfere with hearing everything that the presenter was saying, so this wasn't a big deal. But for this reason, I can't rate the app 5 stars. I do wish I could give it 4.75 stars, because I had no other complaints.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Easy to use! A+ Highly Recommend!

*2023-02-16, version 7.6.2*

Can join webinars easily by clicking one link on my iPhone. No issues, no having to type in the webinar number, passcode, etc. I really appreciate how easy it is, especially when I’m traveling! Highly recommend! Thank you for making it so easy unlike many other apps!

### 5/5 — Easy to use - no complicated technology to work through

*2023-02-01, version 7.6.2*

This “GoToWebinar” is amazing! Fast and easy to install directly from the link shown on the screen.
It only took seconds to download and took me directly to my webinar without any password or other info. Very happy & will use again.

### 5/5 — Great Webinar App

*2022-12-15, version 7.6.2*

I attended a class on this app for the first time today. It was easy to connect from the email notice, the video and audio were clear. I had to switch between home bluetooth, my phone speaker, and my car bluetooth. All went well, I could follow the class and see the video presentation.

### 5/5 — Clear and simple

*2022-02-25, version 7.6.1*

I use Zoom, MS Teams, Crowdcast and other apps for webinars. For the presentations I saw today GoToWebinar was 100% adequate. I didn’t require visual interactivity and the questions function was very easy to use. I can’t say this is my go-to app now because each platform has its uses. When chosen thoughtfully, it’s a fine app that is worth trying. It’s certainly less complex than most of its peers, particularly for seniors or those who aren’t comfortable with technology generally.

### 5/5 — Easy to use with just one click!

*2022-01-21, version 7.6.1*

Super easy to use. Good sound quality and pretty simple interface. No need for a tutorial if you have ever done any sort of remote communications such as Teams or other webinar platforms.
Can comment, raise hand to ask a question, etc. Good for professionals seeking an easy way to convey information through webinars and presentations.

### 5/5 — GoToWebinar on the iPhone

*2021-07-13, version 7.6.1*

Using the GoToWebinar on my iPhone is fantastic!  

It’s fine on my Desktop or Laptop and I would rate that experience at four stars [****] but when I rate the experience on my iPhone it pulls in the fifth star [*****] 

No more - digging out the laptop and trying to get connected - just click the link on your iPhone and you are in business!  Take screenshots that are saved to photos and they become your notes

### 5/5 — Great Performance

*2021-01-21, version 7.5.3*

I have an iPhone. I clicked on the meeting invite and it took me to a page that said a new version of the app was available. I couldn’t figure out how to bypass to avoid being late for the meeting.  I clicked and it took me to the new download page. It took less than 5 seconds and then I connected to my meeting. Quick and easy. I was impressed.

### 5/5 — Exceptional!

*2020-10-08, version 7.5.0*

This webinar was exceptional and I am overly pleased how I was able to interact with the host and team members. The audio was clear, the presentation was crisp, the functionality of the app was effective, manageable, and easy to navigate. I absolutely loved my experience which is typically had from my desktop or surface, and now, from the palm of my hand; cellphone. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Extremely handy and convenient!

*2020-09-24, version 7.5.0*

This was my first time using this application. And it was surprisingly easy. I clicked on the link connecting me to the webinar; and when it asked me to download the application, I did so. Whereupon I was automatically linked immediately to the webinar I wanted. I can understand why it’s such a popular app! Very, very easy to use and extremely convenient!

### 5/5 — Above the rest

*2020-07-09, version 7.5.0*

I have attended many webinars (especially since the shut downs) and this is by far the most clearly presented format. The speaker view  was optional - I could resize her screen as I wanted, and the slides section was very clear to view. Questions went smoothly (I asked two and was answered quickly) and feedback was simple and easy. Very good!
