LiveMeeting? I pass.

Live Meeting Review. So, I was looking for a way to do some video webinars with customers and clients. I ran into a couple of options, one being Microsoft Live meeting. The website demo was impressive and made me excited get it going. I signed up and tried the system. First of all, my computer took quite a while to load up the live meeting software. That was the first hit against it. Now I just wonered how easy it would be for my attendees to join my meeting. So, I tried it out.
The result? Only about 40% of my people on my first trial meeting could even get into the meeting. How frustrating. That would really hurt if you had paying customers on the webinar. I tried a few more time, with similar results. My attendees told me that they had to load a file and it just sat there and wouldn’t load up for them.
I was done with that right there. Instead of LiveMeeting, try a more reliable service like Webex Free trial
. That is the way I went. More expensive, but has good reliability and an easy interface with video capabilities.
