Mikogo reviews install#

Don't need to install a client for Voice, and one for Cam, One for screen sharing, etc.

Voice/Cam/PDF sharing/Screensharing all in one.

In fact a pointer for each student in a different color appears in Mikogo.Īwesome things I've noticed about BBB right off the bat: I really liked how Mikogo does this and missed it badly in BBB.

When screen sharing, students can't create a pointer to point at something on my screen.Next version of BBB will have pdf/ppt recording but no screen sharing recording like Elluminate has.That would be nice to take a large group of students and instantly move them into smaller groups where I could move between rooms to give them help. No breakout rooms like Elluminate has.Screensharing a bit slower than Teamviewer.Voice not as good as Skype's - slight delay.Sometimes I want to help fix a problem or type something but I cant. Can't control someone elses mouse via screen sharing.However, you can't easily make someone else a presenter so that everyone can see their screen. Teamviewer has a broadcast option that works quite well with a small group of students. Mikogo for OSX will make you lose focus when a student points on your screen during your presentation.Mikogo has problems when screen sharing with multiple monitors (as of August 2011).Skype's OSX client has been less than stellar - frequent disconnects.Skype group screen sharing is expensive.You have to close the current call and then call everyone again. Skype doesn't allow someone to join an existing conference call.Can't tell who needs help by raising virtual hand.I've also trialed the newest version of Elluminate. I used Teamviewer when Mikogo was down (which was often in the last few months).

Mikogo reviews free#

Last year, I used Skype with Mikogo for a free web conferencing solution with about six students. Shame on you Mikogo, for selling a product in this country without any access to technical support.I just started using Big Blue Button recently with a hosting service. I was given no other option than to drop my subscription and look for another service. When I tried contacting support, I was unable to reach anyone by phone or chat and my emails went unanswered.

Mikogo reviews software#

Recently I purchased a new laptop and when I ran the software from this PC, I could not find any documents to transfer even though they were stored locally on my PC. In those cases, I found I was not always able to transfer mouse and keyboard control and unable to transfer documents. Mikogo ran fairly well for me unless I had a Mac participant. I need to be able to transfer documents via secure file transfer or FTP and the software must be HIPAA compliant. I also need to be able to transfer control of the mouse and keyboard for remote signature.

I never have more than one participant besides myself in the conference. Specifically, I conduct remote enrollment services and need the software to run on any platform (ie. I had been using Mikogo for several years now and most of the time it worked fine for my purposes. Specifically, I conduct remote enrollment servic.
