Hello guys! I need recommendations of a good video conferencing software for our online meetings. Some of our staff/coworkers are working from their home. We are currently using Skype, But lately our boss told us that we need an upgrade. What can you suggest? Thanks!

It's always better to make thread titles include the subject they're about. Vague titles have a way of attracting the wrong crowd. Changed that for you.

Skype is pretty much still the behemoth of VoIP software, but there are others you colud check out I guess. e.g. Zoom has been popular recently. I've also seen people use Adobe Connect and Citrix GoToMeeting.

Can't exactly personally recommend either because I haven't personally worked with them, but that's where the rage seems to be at these days.

I also rely on Skype when it comes to video conferencing or any collaboration online. Otherwise, if you need something else then I suggest that you choose among the reputable ones that I found from my brother's lists. These includes some of the best tools and features compared to other video conferencing services. Besides Skype, The names included are Avaya, GotoMeeting, Brother-OmniJoin, LoopUp and so many others. I hope that will help you.

Duly noted on the title and thanks for editing! Thank you too for your suggestions. I checked them out.

I've used join the meeting of omnijoin - is it very different from gotomeeting? It seems like gotomeeting is the most popular based on my searches. Have you used gotomeeting in the past?
