Problem



In my company, an Open Source BPM solution editor, we use a lot Go To Meeting and Go To Training (Citrix) for trainings. It works on Windows, Mac and iOS, Android. But not on Linux. And it seems they will not support Linux soon. I know that Webex (Cisco) supports Linux, but is far more expensive and the CTO told us "No!".



Thanks to the success of our Open Source solution, we have more and more demand for training with Ubuntu desktop & server, and we would like to be able to do it. Skype is not a solution, and Google Hangouts neither.



Question



So, would you have any advice? We need:



  • sharing screen & webcam

  • managing who speak (mute, unmute)

  • a text chat

  • up to 6 people connected + manager of the session

  • record the session

  • the ability to do some remote control over the Internet would be a plus but is not compulsory

If it is Linux only, it is not a problem. If it is not free of charge, it must not cost much than Go To Training.



There is an interesting comparison chart on Wikipedia, however, there are too many to test them all. So if you have any feedback, you are welcome.

  • Looks like Psi/Psi+ Jabber/XMPP clients have some audio/video support by using a plugin. You'll then need to set up a Jabber/XMPP server yourself, though. It's defenitely not a conference solution. I doubt this even exists - I only know hosted solutions like Spreed.

  • You don't have enough control to manage a training (mute, unmute someone, for example). Some other cool features are the recording ability, I will add it to the list.

Yes, now it's possible run GoToMeeting on Ubuntu: there is a new HTML5 version, which runs fine under Chrome (tested in 14.04 and 16.04). No need to use Phone for audio.



Open it at:



https://app.gotomeeting.com



Or if you want to directly open the meeting using the ID:



https://app.gotomeeting.com/index.html?meetingid=<id>


Then you can create a Web App in Chrome, clicking in the sandwich icon, then More Tools > Create application shortcuts.



Update: According @cr8ivecodesmith, the web client now supports hosting meetings/webminars!

    I'm the Community Leader for GoToMeeting as well as an Ubuntu user :) GoToMeeting has a Web App (WebRTC based client), that can be used to attend meetings from your web browser. In Chrome it supports GoToMeeting's VoIP and you can also be made presenter and share your screen or application window. Hosting meetings is being worked on still but one work around is to start the meeting using one of the mobile Apps and then making the Linux PC or ChromeBook the presenter. If you have any questions you can reach me on Twitter @GoToSupport or in our community community.gotomeeting.com

    Yes, now it's possible run GoToMeeting on Ubuntu: there is a new HTML5 version, which runs fine under Chrome (tested in 14.04 and 16.04). No need to use Phone for audio.



    Open it at:



    https://app.gotomeeting.com



    Or if you want to directly open the meeting using the ID:



    https://app.gotomeeting.com/index.html?meetingid=<id>


    Then you can create a Web App in Chrome, clicking in the sandwich icon, then More Tools > Create application shortcuts.



    Update: According @cr8ivecodesmith, the web client now supports hosting meetings/webminars!

    • We tested a few times, at the moment, this is not possible to host the webinar or meeting. Only to join and view/participate.

      I'm the Community Leader for GoToMeeting as well as an Ubuntu user :) GoToMeeting has a Web App (WebRTC based client), that can be used to attend meetings from your web browser. In Chrome it supports GoToMeeting's VoIP and you can also be made presenter and share your screen or application window. Hosting meetings is being worked on still but one work around is to start the meeting using one of the mobile Apps and then making the Linux PC or ChromeBook the presenter. If you have any questions you can reach me on Twitter @GoToSupport or in our community community.gotomeeting.com
