Allow Panelist(s) to See All Questions
Not so much a question as a feature request. (I thought we had a category for that.) Please add the ability for an organizer to allow a specific panelist (or all panelists) to view ALL questions. Currently, must promote them to Organizer, which gives them the power to END the meeting. I always warn them when it's necessary to do this. I point out Exit Webinar vs End Webinar should they need to withdraw from the session. It has still happened by accident. It also gives them too many other powers, like ability to dismiss people. Mostly it works out okay, until the curious "organizer" starts clicking on options!
Allow Organizers to control which webcams attendees see
Hi Glenn, I would like an ability to turn on/off webcams. Specifically, I suggest to add a feature to manually change the speaker cameras that attendees view. There should be a way for organizers to have the option to push the webcam view to the attendees to see only the active speaker view or a gallery view or select speakers. In the classic version, I can simulate this by manually turning cameras off and on (which sends the speaker a request to activate their camera).
Overlay a link over a playing video at a specific time
With GoToWebinar supporting evergreen webinars // automated events, it would be incredibly helpful for both our organization and our attendees if we could overlay a clickable link (via lightbox, like in YouTube or Wistia) at a predetermined time so that attendees can be delivered a Call to Action and take that immediate action rather than having to type-out a link presented on screen.Start webinars on Android tablets
I'd like the ability to host webinars on my android tablet. I'm blind, that makes using a computer inconvenient for me. I use a device similar to that. I use the braille note touch pluss, which is like an android tablet with a braille keyboard on it that I can type on, and to navigate the screen by pressing the space bar. But I would like the ability to host my webinars on it.
Hybrid Webinar Recommendation
Recommendation: Create a webinar platform that is a combination of a Classic & Simulated Live webinar. This would be in 3 parts: 1) Live - host to introduce the webinar, expectations, etc. 2) Play pre-recorded webinar 3) Live - time for questions, and closing of the webinar I believe that this would be a great addition to the current offerings. Thank you for your consideration.
Hosting a GoToWebinar from a Chromebook
I need to do this. I can't do this. When will this be supported? I noticed this question was asked back in 2016 as well. There were a few replies asking for updates that went unanswered. I thought, "Here we are in the middle of 2018, maybe it's just time to ask the question again." 🙂 I really like using my Chromebook. I really DON'T like blowing the dust off my MacBook. Please tell me how to run a GoToWebinar on a Chromebook. Even if it's something in beta...I'll be a beta tester.Countdown Timer for Presenters (Panelists)
New member here! My company just switched over from Webinato to GoToWebinar, so I'm still learning all the features of this platform. On Webinato, one of the best features was a countdown timer that main organizer could activate on all panelist and co-organizer's screens (but the audience couldn't see it). If the paneliest was supposed to be done with their presentation after 20 minutes, I'd set it to 20 minutes and it would countdown for them. It was the only I was ever able to keep speakers on time! Before I started using it, speakers would always go over their time limit. Does GoToWebinar have a countdown timer? Could you consider adding one? Thank you!Chat 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!
Noise Reduction Button Enable/Disable
I suggest adding a button to the GoTo control panel that can turn off noise reduction. There can be many situations where noise cancellation can prove detrimental to live broadcast such as: . Live music lessons . Sessions that use only the webcam window to also transmit multimedia content . Any situation where the user is in an audio-controlled environment with no background noise These are some of the cases where noise reduction enhancement is bad for the final audio. Thanks for the attention
Order the hand raise icon/emoticon in GoTo Training and Webinar
The hand raise icon/emoticon in GoTo Training and Webinar should be an ordered response so the facilitator can tell who raised their hand first, second, etc. This gives the facilitator the ability to incorporate some competition-based Q&A. The facilitator can also tie in rewards/incentives into their activities to further foster excitement and participation among the participants and change up the pace from time to time. At the very least, this option will enable facilitators to know the order in which to respond to questions.
