I feel that the editor's web conferencing software review was very detailed and useful but I do feel obliged to comment about their rating of Nefsis.
I use this platform as a basis for teaching English on-line (having recently upgraded for the earlier and limited ePOP system). The editor's technical comments are fair and accurate but their assessment of the cost is not.
The true cost is buried in the way the licensing agreement works - and believe me, I've assessed most of the platforms you reviewed. Nefsis allows me to transfer my user licences bewteen my teachers - in other words the licence is not locked down to a specific user. This is not the case with other platforms, notably your No 1 choice, GoToMeeting, who are very expensive if you want multiple users acting as the conference host.
Nefsis will also allow me to integrate (via an SDK) the conferencing system with our Learning Management System - GoToMeeting won't.
I just thought I would try and set the record straight.

"Only Corporate accounts support multiple organizer licenses so that each user can schedule meetings as needed. You may call 1 888 *** **** for more information.
We do not have any support on personal accounts for allowing you to create meetings from your own system."
