Can you have attendees in GoToWebinar talk or text "chat" to each other during a live 500 attendee event??
If you can't - PLEASE - change it so they can. It is terrible that there is no way to have the attendees interact with each other -
We have a weekly webinar on the same day, and same time EVERY week. Our clients like to be able to come to the event and interact with each other - and with the GoToMeeting there is no way to do that.
Only the organizer can see the "Questions" from attendees.
Let us know if there are plans to FIX this, thanks!

I need this feature for GoToWebinar. We purchased a 1 year license and I will not be renewing if this feature isn't added. Allowing attendees to chat with one another takes away the feeling of isolation. This should be an option in the control panel. "Allow attendees in chat"
Can someone from Citrix let me know if this is still being considered? It seems to be that there is a following. A lot of comments for this in the past few weeks and months.
- Would really appreciate an update from Citrix on this issue.
1. Are you working to create a text among attendee feature?
2. What is the time frame before this will be available. - Questions are displayed in the control panel and can be broken out into it own window. You can read more about using the Q and A feature here: http://support.citrixonline.com/en_US/webinar/help_files/G2W040016?title=Question+and+Answer
- This feature would be super helpful when trying to design interactive and informative webinars!
- Just conducted a webinar to 300 people and thought no one asked any questions....I found out they did after I generated an attendance report....this is ridiculous...
- in the meantime, you may want to find a free java chat applet and run it on your site, for text only chat; that you have people log into parallel/in addition to g2w. personally i don't like public chat since competitors/flames/ could be posted; but some use it
- Hi,
I began to use gotowebinar a few weeks ago and I share other's users concerns about the limit of interaction via chat among participants. This should be an organizer's choice, not a platform limit.
Hope you'll add this feature as soon as you can.
Thnx - Any Update about this big limit? Are you going to add chat windows for GTW 100+?
Luca - Glenn Dobson, seems like I am not the ONLY one that wants chat feature for attendees (you've been getting a lot of comments recently on this idea) so - as I asked two months ago - How is the "idea for consideration" coming along?
