I have been trying to follow GoTo's progress in bringing back this drawing feature. It was the key feature that kept me and my clients using GoToMeeting. Making someone else the presenter, or offering remote control absolutely does not work for our applications. To make someone else the presenter, they have to have the file and the software to open and interact with the file. We are talking about programs like AutoCAD, 3D Studio, ProE, etc. To allow someone to have remote control, they need to know how to use/navigate these various software which is about 1 out of 100 relative to attendees. Due to the loss of this 'Attendees Can Draw' feature, I, and about a dozen of my clients, have turned off the renewal feature for the service as we all have other means for virtual collaboration through other existing subscriptions. The drawing tool (as it was) was the only reason we use GoTo.
As we are now into the 2nd half of the year (as mentioned in the later post about 3 months ago), what is the status of the potential revival of this feature?
