What's your flavour of screen sharing?

I have started using Zoho Meeting, http://join.zoho.com/ its quick and easy and free for low usage. I use teamviewer for non-commercial purposes but their licences are too expensive for occasional usage.

I use a mixture of gotomeeting and webex. Gotomeeting is cheaper but some customers can only work with webex. Both are reliable high quality solutions. Used joinme in it's early days and it sucked, maybe it's better now?

If I had known then the things that I know now, I would not have done the things that have lead to me knowing what I do.

i was impressed when a sales person did a skype call and demoed the product with the skype screen sharing. when tried using again later with colleagues, learned both ends need camera and mic which I had not known. (maybe just a mic needed, not totally sure) So yeah, if have camera and mic, lots of people already have skype installed and using, so stick with that. also noticed HipChat had screen sharing as well recently.

I haven't seen anyone else mention it yet, but I use the paid version of Mikogo for business meetings with clients (when I'm working as a contractor). It works really nicely and I haven't hit the limit on participants yet. It includes VOIP that works really well, but the meeting is all-VOIP or all-phone (dialin), so the lowest common denominator wins if you have a mixed bag of attendees.

GoToMeeting I use it nearly daily. Sometimes for 6hrs a day. Not great for Support, but for holding a meeting, recording the meeting, and dial in phone numbers and audio that ACTUALLY WORKS. 5 companies I work with are now subscribers, based on their positive experiences using it! Meetings start fast. I am about to launch one in 10 minutes. I have 4 scheduled for today. I work remotely. And I can start a meeting from my cell phone (android), and then transfer to the PC. Very handy. Not much on file transfer, but easy to send links to the other computer. HTH, Kirk Out!

We use the AT&T Connect teleconference with Cisco Webex which works pretty well. AT&T Connect - AT&T Business[^]

I regularly use both GoToMeeting and Join.me for international online meetings. I don't have a preference; both work very well to coordinate our activities over. The presenter's screen is displayed for all to see. Voice can be via your microphone or dial in for those who don't have a microphone on their PC.

Since you said this was mainly for "demo" purposes, maybe "broadcasting" is an option? (using Screen Capture as the source; among other things) ... Create a Live Broadcasting session[^]

Previously I used TightVNC, though a pain to setup if the other party isn't exactly "literate". These days, NoMachine. It has a interactive and view-only mode as well. The fastest throughput I've yet seen in any of these remote screen sharing systems. Very easy to use, even across all major OSs. The free version only allows one connection at a time, but the enterprise version gives the possibility of several viewers / interacters on the same screen. Might be worth while to check out.

It isn't perfect, but Google Hangouts works as well as any.

If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

GoToMeeting. Been using it for years. Big savings if you pay per year vs. per month. Very reliable. Never have had any trouble connecting through any network or corporate firewall.
