Technology
GoToMeeting is designed to broadcast the desktop display of a host computer to a group of computers connected to the host via the Internet. Transmissions are protected with high security encryption and optional passwords. By incorporating a web-hosted subscription service with software installed on a host computer, transmission can be passed through a very limited firewall.

History
GoToMeeting was developed in July 2004 using remote access and screen sharing technology from GoToMyPC and GoToAssist to enable web conferencing. The GoToWebinar release in 2006 and GoToTraining in 2010 expanded GoToMeeting's ability to accommodate a larger audience. In February 2017, GoToMeeting became a LogMeIn product as a result of a merger between LogMeIn and the Citrix GoTo business.
