GoTo Meeting
A business video conferencing tool with straightforward cloud recording, sometimes used for business and coaching style podcasts.
PodStack editorial · Product research. How we review tools
GoTo Meeting offers cloud and local recording options for video calls, aimed at small and medium business meetings, with automatic transcription available on higher tiers.
Business coaches, consultants, and companies already using GoTo's meeting tools for client calls sometimes record those same calls as podcast content, reusing software they already pay for.
Like most conferencing tools not built for podcasting, the output is one mixed file, so post production flexibility is limited compared to a dedicated multitrack recorder.
A workable option if you're already inside the GoTo ecosystem for other reasons, not something worth subscribing to purely for podcast recording when cheaper dedicated tools exist.
