Hello - we are using Zoom for all of our courses but would like to also add some larger open webinars using another tool such as On24 or something designed for a large webinar. Can anyone recommend a good one that integrates well with Docebo?
Thanks,

I have been in organizations that have used GoTo Training, Webex and Adobe Connect.
For ease of set up I would have to say Webex and Adobe Connect have been relatively easy to get integrated, and once they were set up, there wasn’t a lot of additional administration to keep them working.
Some things that I encountered with different tools in general-
Adobe Connect - we had experienced if someone was a super admin in the LMS and they were trying to attend a virtual training, they would join automatically as the presenter. (It has been a while since I have used connect, so I don’t know if that is still a thing?) Otherwise, it was an easy to set up and use tool.
Webex - the Documentation from Docebo for how to integrate is missing a few pieces of information, but there is thread on this community that talks about how to properly set that up, and it is great! We haven’t had any issues with set ups after the integration and you don’t need to deal with expired tokens or things like that. Our webex account allows us to set up sessions that can run simultaneously and that is nice!
GoTo Training - It has been a while since I used this, but I remember we kept having issues with tokens expiring and there was no notification or notice of a token expiring, so we would try to launch sessions and they would just not work because of the expired token (I don’t know if this has since been updated?). Other than the tokens, it was an easy to use tool.
Microsoft Teams - We have not been using it, but we investigated the use of it, and we dropped that notion pretty quickly. Instructors need to be super admins in order to authenticate their tokens, if you don’t have access to the admin console for Microsoft, this becomes a big back and forth between you and who ever does have access to it, because you need to do a lot of set up.
I hope this helps you in your webinar tool quest!!!

Thank you! This is great information. Thank you for sharing such thoughtful and nuanced information.
+1I’m looking at Microsoft Teams. We’re in the midst of an enterprise 365 rollout, and there’s some momentum around Teams.
