Citrix adds integrated audio to GoToMeeting
Citrix said Monday that it is adding integrated toll-free audio services to its GoToMeeting Corporate and GoToWebinar services.
In a nutshell, customers that establish meeting via GoToMeeting will be able to choose toll-free, a toll number or Voice over IP audio to go with their meetings. Each user will be able to accept an audio option along with Web conferencing.
Citrix said in a statement that GoToMeeting will have one-click recording, subscription based pricing and scheduling tools.
The audio integration makes a lot of sense and is likely to signal more collaboration tools integrating voice. For instance, I fully expect that Skype will enter the collaboration market to give Cisco’s WebEx and GoToMeeting a run.
GoToMeeting’s voice services are provided by Citrix Online Audio, a unit of Citrix.
