GoToMeeting Helps Small Businesses Personalize
and Simplify Meetings
Citrix today announced a redesigned user experience for
GoToMeeting, making it even simpler to hold high-definition online
meetings with colleagues, customers and friends from anywhere in
the world. The traditional definition of “meeting” is challenged by
the new GoToMeeting with more productivity app integrations,
personalization that lets users work the way they want and a richer
experience, so they can stay connected with colleagues in
real-time.
New Citrix research reveals that people use on average up to
five different devices for work, meaning they need to quickly move
from one device to the next without losing productivity. The new
features announced today improve the GoToMeeting experience across
the PC, Mac, mobile and browser to accommodate different work
styles.
“Productive meetings don’t just start and stop when you step in
the “room;” they require preparation and follow-up,” said Chris
Battles, Vice President and General Manager, Citrix. “With the new
GoToMeeting experience, we’re making the preparation, collaboration
and post-meeting communication phases of the work day as seamless
and intuitive as possible.”
Recent GoToMeeting enhancements that improve the PC, Mac,
browser and mobile experience and are available worldwide now,
include:
Desktop Experience
- GoToMeeting Control Panel –PC users
have a more intuitive interface that is customizable– all designed
to simplify the way attendees and organizers collaborate in
real-time.
