Re: Tools for online meetups and conferences

2020-03-14 Thread Ross Gardler
At work I teleconference about 50% of my meetings, often with people in 
bandwidth constrained environments. There are only two truly reliable platforms 
in my experience. Zoom and Teams. Everything else seems to have connectivity 
issues for at least one participant. Hangouts is pretty good in a "broadcast" 
scenario, i.e. one person speaking at a time, but I don't find it reliable in a 
meeting scenario. If you really want to meet many people in a broadcast 
scenario I think people should be looking to Twitch, Mixer or YouTube 
Streaming. All three have been proven to work with large numbers of watchers - 
though I have no personal experience.

I'll not list the ones that don't work in my experience, but I've not seen them 
mentioned in this thread yet (I've not used OpenMeetings in anything other than 
a quick test).

There's also an interesting possibility for G Suite users:
