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!

- And we need attendees to be able to communicate with each other...not just broadcasts from presenters.
- I can't believe we've had to wait so long for this feature. I do not like any of the other platforms, but something as simple as group chat is going to force us to move away.
- We are new customers to GoToWebinar and we are SHOCKED that webinars don't offer attendee chat. We are already looking at other alternatives, which is sad as there are so many reasons to like GTW. But in this social world, lack of interactivity between attendees is a show stopper for us,
- I fully agree. This is a feature that would be very welcomed!
- Is there any update on this? It seems like it's been requested for a very long time, long enough that chat could have been added to the system by now.
- Any update on this? We just moved to Webinar from Meeting and would like this feature, it is a group under 100
- I am with a group that was on GoToMeeting and just switched to GoToWebinar and we really really need the chat feature. We love the new question feature but our group is so used to personal interactions. We have less than 100 people and want this tunred on. Ive see something about 100+ not having it, has it been enabled for under 100 webinars? Or are we going to have to make everyone panalist to get the feature to work as a workaround?
- Will this be updated? People have been asking for it for over a year. I am tempted to leave Citrix and not renew if this feature isn't added. So so frustrating!
- Valeria,
I often "reply to all" with "great comment!" or something similar to share ideas from an attendee worthy of a broader hearing. Since they feel included you will see even more great comments appear, but you maintain control of the conversation, so trolls or the perpetually clueless cannot hijack. - I often reply to all with "great comment" or something similar to share ideas from an attendee worthy of a broader hearing.
