All You Can Do With Live Meeting
Apr 8th, 2009, 10:02pm
 
I have used Microsoft Live Meeting for awhile, its pretty good. As I go through the features that Live Meeting offers, its included the event or class registration in the package. On the other hand, others web conferencing solutions offer this feature with extra charges.

Good point, Stevie, and something that any prospective purchaser should look at. Some vendors don't include registration at all, some offer it as an extra cost option, and some have it in varying degrees of sophistication.

Live Meeting, WebEx Event Center, omNovia Secure Conference, and Citrix GoToWebinar include it as standard. Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro makes you pay extra. Most of the low cost packages designed primarily for screen sharing in a quick collaborative session don't include it at all.

There are some third party registration packages available that take registration and attendee management to the next level. Corvent has AMP (works best with Live Meeting), and Act-On is excellent for use with WebEx. I haven't tried Cvent. Meeting One has a registration system, but I believe it is in process of being upgraded/replaced.

As a vendor for one of the smaller services at Great America Networks Conferencing I wanted to chime in here on registration packages. Our QuickVisuals solution, based on the Persony platform, includes it's own basic Registration package.

Unfortunately the package leaves much to be desired. It is not customizable and asks for a bunch of basic information, though requires only Name and Email, so that is usually all you get.

We offer an add-on package though that is fully customizable in appearance and the information collected. We even brand it under your own domain with the ability to receive real-time reports of registrants and process payments for a paid webinar.

It's one of the extras we go to as a company. Sometimes working with a smaller company can be a big advantage.
