Web Meetings: Freedom to Expand Abroad
If you’re already a Mikogo user, or even if you’re just a first time visitor to our blog, you’re no doubt aware of all the talk these days about virtual web meetings. But are you truly maximizing the benefits of desktop sharing technology to the greatest degree? Are you one of the Mikogo users who when asked about Mikogo reply with “We just wish we had located the service sooner” (Sean Rowen, EZregister)?
You have no doubt that online meetings save travel time – so why am I about to tell you that meeting software can actually increase the likelihood of business trips? Do you think you can get the best of both worlds from web meetings? 
Attend your Fantasy Sport Drafts Online with Mikogo
The other day, I received a tweet from FanDraft, the provider of a Fantasy Football Drafting software solution, about how Mikogo is making waves in the world of fantasy sports.
In fantasy football, owners (those participating in the fantasy sports game) meet together and use their software to track and present the draft results to the rest of the league.
But what happens when some members of the league cannot meet for the draft?
Screen sharing software for presentations both in and out of the Office
If you’ve been a user of Mikogo’s screen sharing software for a while now, you’ve no doubt discovered several benefits for companies that save you time and money. In general when people think about screen sharing software and its benefits, they note how it allows users to share information on their computers with other users of the software. This benefits companies most, because a lot of work needs to be shared within a company, and of course time and money should always be saved in the workplace where possible. But what about some other users of screen sharing, such as private individuals and students?
Remote Desktop Software and the Importance of Security
The Internet is truly a remarkable thing. Whether it be search engines, social media platforms or collaboration software, information from all over the world can be accessed with just a few keystrokes. Today when we have a question, we tend to say “just Google it”. Or if we’re going to get in contact with someone, you’ll hear “I’ll Skype you”, or “look me up on Facebook”.
And now, through the use of remote desktop software such as Mikogo, we’re even accessing entire computers via the Internet. Well, not quite for hardware issues – however wouldn’t that be impressive 
But as we now turn to the Internet for so many needs, it is important to learn to play safe – an issue we take a look at below.
Web Conference Software Should Save Costs, Not Create Them
Often a company will find that one of its biggest expenses can be the costs associated with corporate wide meetings or training sessions. Bringing employees to a central location can be expensive. There are transportation costs, stipends, room rates and hours of employee time lost while traveling. One popular new solution to this problem has been the use of web conference software. Because corporate meetings run in the thousands of dollars per event, the start up costs of web conferencing software can easily be paid off within a couple of meetings. And with Mikogo, you don’t even cop any expenses to get started – making it a popular choice.
