Quite a number of our association members are blind or visually impaired and use screen readers such as JAWS when they are using computers. The screen reader actually reads commands out loud so the user can make selections. They report difficulty in finding radio buttons to opt for the telephone number as an alternative, and they are not able to find the question box easily, raise their hand, etc.
Is Citrix working to correct this problem? If so, when might we expect a solution? We have some angry people.

My organization runs 15+ webinars a month. Screen readers are not compatible. This is a really big issue for accessibility. This affects attendees AND presenters.

Our organization runs monthly webinars on go to webinar and not only have our listeners requested the integration of screen readers but so have our speakers. We now have a speaker who uses JAWS and will be unable to provide his presentation unassisted. I see this issue has been included here for a long time and I would hope that the development team will be able to rectify this quickly.
Hi all
I hope you're all very well.
I wonder if anyone can please help me or point me in the right direction with the following question.
Do you know if GoToWebinar works with any visual impaired software, i.e JAWS, Dragon, etc
If it does work with any visual impaired software, does anyone know which one works well with GoToWebinar.
Many Thanks
Wayne

I want to start a GoTo Webinar but I am wondering if the software is accessible for people with disability? Is the program compatible with assisted technology such as JAWS, Zoom text and or dragon? - As our products are sharing the presenter's screen, it's not possible for screen reader on an attendee's computer to read what is being displayed.
