I have just been trying Mikogo which is a free online desktop sharing software.
What immediately grabbed my attention was the Mikogo Skype Extra, as a daily user of skype the ability to combine remote control access and screen sharing with my call is very handy indeed. This vastly simplifies the process of either showing how to do something or fixing up and maintaining a computer from afar .
Very useful for helping family and friends out when the need arises.
Mikogo features:
- Screen Sharing
- Change Presenters
- Remote Control
- Pause Transmission
- Application Selection
- File Transfer
Just be aware only the Mikogo program can be used to create or join a conference and the connect program is solely to connect to a conference.
Now security wise the the meeting creator can password protect it and specify the meeting id. With all meeting transmissions sessions protected via Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) using 256 bits AES end to end encryption.
Overall very useful and easy to use and clear documentaion make it a breeze to use.
