Web conferencing tool search -- tips for selecting the best solution for your needs
January 5, 2006
By: Bob Whitehead
Whether you are just starting out in your search for a
web conferencing tool or it's a decision you've been
researching for some time, you can benefit from the
knowledge of an expert. You'll want more than just
information from the online meeting tools themselves -- you
need the advice of someone who knows the field and who has
experience.
Robin Good is a noted expert in web conferencing and
offers numerous tips for selecting the right one from all
the web conferencing tools out there. He offers Twelve
Commandments in a Kolabora.com article entitled
"How
To Select Your Web Conferencing Tool" that demonstrates
his deep knowledge of the online meeting world and his
commitment to helping consumers like you find Internet
conferencing tools that make life better -- not more
complicated.
What are these commandments? The underlying message
behind all of them is to know what you need. When you can
answer questions about what you are using online
conferencing for, how many people you plan to be meeting
with, if you need a solution that supports both PC and Mac
users, and what type of collaboration tools you need, you
become a more informed consumer.
Being more informed means you're armed against claims
that don't stack up and won't be easily seduced by a web
meeting solution that offers a multitude of slick features
that you don't really need.
What do you need? Robin Good doesn't shy away from
recommending specific features: Voice over IP conferencing,
file sharing tools, instant messaging, and comprehensive
customer support. The most important tip of all, though,
might be avoiding a meeting tool that you cannot try for
yourself, outside of an arranged supervised demo, and for a
free trial period alone without the company representative
looking over your shoulder.
Following these tips can help you save time and money.
When you research what the experts are saying, it makes
selecting an online meeting tool much easier.
