Primary call center, we love the auto attendant, there is also tons of options for add on. you can have fully automated call support. I believe chat bot is also available. also it is awesome being able to text from the primary business number. all in all I haven't had any issues.

Pros

Directs phone calls to an unlimited number of places
the auto attendant is super user friendly
I can change the call id depending on which option the call selected so i can tell what they want

Cons

being able to use multiple desktop phones to one user, so i don't need to pay for many users for both of my desks
i am totally happy
no problems

GoTo Connect is prefect for business with more than 1 employee. GoTo Connect is easy to work with on all fronts. I really love the easy auto attendant setup. I also like the ability to change caller id.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

GoToConnect was used in my organization as a way to keep up with day-to-day tasks between employees. The need stemmed from everyone working in separate office spaces, yet our work had some overlap. Corresponding through e-mail sometimes can get messy and it is important to keep administrative type work in a different "space" than typical services with clients. It's been easy to integrate new users and even a new office manager- which solves the problem of onboarding for our evolving team.

Pros

Accessibility and integration via desktop app or browser is convenient.
Tracking - Timestamps, voicemails, favoriting and other abilities allow for abundant ways to track calls/chats.
Simplicity - The ease of use is high given that symbols and color schemes are very straightforward. This is a benefit to an older workforce who may not be as technically inclined and allows for people of all ages to understand how to use the platform quickly.

Cons

Not as modern as some other platforms available - This could be seen as a pro or a con, but having additional options like color scheme, statuses, and profile picture options make the user experience more personalized and fun.
Lack of integration - Being able to link more than just your personal email to GoToConnect would be handy, such as time-tracking or your calendar.
Uncertain if meetings are private - Anyone with a link can join a meeting, therefore I question how easy it is for someone outside of the company to join a meeting that was not meant for them. Maybe a password option would add a buffer of security.

Likelihood to Recommend

GoToConnect is well-suited to staff who can appreciate a simple, straightforward add-on to their workday. If this platform is meant to be a small aspect of the day and just to support tasks here and there then I would say this is the better option compared to other available platforms. However, GoToConnect lacks some modern touches and additional features that can really make a difference if you are using it often day-to-day. I would recommend other platforms for calls/texts/meetings because they are more fun to use and offer small features that I have noticed more of a benefit to people who rely on its functions. Limitations of only 4 participants with the Basic plan forces you to upgrade your subscription
