Simplified presenter swap - no need to give someone permission to present every time.
Quick toggle that makes it someone doesn't have to give someone present permission every time. It appears to be a feature that existed at one point in time already: https://www.goto.com/blog/simplified-presenter-swap, so that means it existed for a reason but then also disappeared for a reason. My hunch is that one needs to be able to have the feature but also quickly toggle it while also not having to go deep into settings or another portal/window to change it. Maybe even an auto detect based on the person and number of people in the meeting...in any case, it feels like it's important when it's needed and another detail/friction when one doesn't. Maybe some quick conditional rules that one can adjust: • 1 person in meeting - allow for sharing without need to pass permission • 2 (or minimal can be adjusted)...need permission to share. • 3 Can exclude certain people from needing permission to share Valued outcome: Reduct time on task/friction point; a valued feature that your competitor Zoom already has Thank you6Views0likes0CommentsEnable background moderation of Q&A during webinars
At the end of each webinar, I usually go through the questions submitted by attendees. Sometimes, this can be up to hundreds of questions. To make this process more efficient and professional, it should be possible for a colleague to moderate the Q&A in the background during the webinar. This person would: Remove duplicate questions Group questions that cover the same topic Prioritise the most relevant ones As a result, I — as the moderator — would only see the final, cleaned-up list of unique and relevant questions to address live.19Views0likes3CommentsIs the Rectangle feature still available?
I can't see the Labs option any longer, despite using ctrl+shift+L to add the option back. Is there another way to get access to the Rectangle feature, or is there another way to share virtual zones/displays as if they were a separate physical display? I need to share multiple applications, but have an ultrawide monitor, so sharing the entire screen isn't going to work. I would love to either share the virtual zones I created with Microsoft's PowerToys FancyZones or else have some other way to share just a portion of my screen and ALL applications that are on that portion.2.4KViews0likes10CommentsChat Ability for All Attendees
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!50KViews4likes177CommentsAbility to turn off presenter name plate and black boxes that appear in recordings
Hello, I've been using GoTo Webinar for five years and on my recent webinar the black "name" boxes that appear in the camera window during the webinar have never been included in the recording. In our last webinar that were visible in the recording which ultimately results in a very poor user experience for our on-demand viewership because in this particular instance they covered a majority of the webinar demonstration. Is there a way to disable these from appearing in the recordings going forward? We are currently using the classic version of GoTo.84Views2likes5CommentsAdding customised pre-populated answers for common questions from viewers
During a GoTo webinar, there are pre-suggested answers by GoTo to questions submitted from viewers during the webinar. Would it be possible to add our own customised pre-populated answers in advance of the webinar for common questions?.24Views0likes2CommentsStop attendee screen from changing size
It's so irritating when the Presenter... probably is using a two or three monitor setup switches to another screen to present content... and it blows all over the attendee screen... When capturing a webinar and the presenter does this... it blow way past the capture screen. If you are capturing 1/4 of the full screen and this happens... all of a sudden, you are losing 75% of the presented material... Support says there is NO WAY to stop this bad behavior... hence this request. As far as I can tell... no other webinar software has this bad behavior. Please give attendees control so the presenters screens always come in at the identical size.23Views0likes2CommentsAdvancing Slides Functionality
I really like the remote-control functionality where a presenter or organizer can 'give access to the keyboard and mouse.' However, it would be great to isolate just the keyboard so multiple speakers can advance their slides using one master deck. So, in theory, the organizer could always 'own' the master deck, start screen sharing, and allow keyboard sharing so at the appropriate time, each speaker can talk and advance their own slides seamlessly and not have to worry about 'screen share', 'stop presenting' 'pass to new presenter', etc. I also think being able to upload the master deck into a private library could be useful so it's contained within the tool should the organizer loose connectivity and the other co-organizers could take over.
