Use Webinar Software For Your Next Business Meeting

By Ken Morrison


Today, businesses are utilizing webinar software to conduct a majority of their business meetings. This unique software allows interactive presentations and seminars to be hosted right from your computer screen.

The key behind web conferencing software is that it provides a means to have a real time two way flow of information between participants. A presenter can interact freely with recipients in multiple locations. In many ways, a good web meeting package can make you feel as if everyone is located in the same room.

While most software has this type of two-way flow of information, there are a few features that you will want to look for when selecting a specific package to use for your business. The key features to look for fall into two basic categories, price and user functionality.

Considering price may be obvious, but many web conferencing tools are offered as a pay by the minute plan. This can sound appealing, but often leads to higher costs than anticipated. Often, choosing a low flat rate monthly plan can be the most cost effective. It is also much easier to factor in to the monthly budget.

When it comes to functionality, desktop sharing and audio and video integration are two key features to look for. Desktop sharing can not only allow remote desktop control, but perhaps more importantly it allows the recipients to utilize their own computer screen to view exactly what the presenter is sharing. In addition, being able to incorporate audio and video elements directly into the presentation itself greatly enhances the user experience.

Webinar software provides a great way for businesses to conduct professional, interactive meetings involving parties from multiple locations. This greatly reduces the travel cost and time requirements typically associated with traditional business meetings. As the use of this type of tool continues to grow in popularity, web conferencing software will continue to change the way business meetings are conducted.
