Citrix GoToMeeting Corporate Named PC Magazine's Editors' Choice in Web Conferencing

    Business Editors/High-Tech Writers

    SANTA BARBARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 28, 2005--

Cited as "By Far the Most Polished" in Category for Its Smart Feature
    Set and Easy-to-Use Collaboration

    In a competitive review of next-generation Web-conferencing solutions capable of transforming the online meeting status-quo, PC Magazine named Citrix(R) GoToMeeting(TM) its Editors' Choice. The review, which appeared in the March 22nd issue, compared seven competitive services that offer simplicity, pricing efficiency and feature innovation for their appeal to the growing small-to-mid-sized business (SMB) segment. Citrix GoToMeeting was the stand-out for its practical interface, smart screen sharing, and easy collaboration and meeting-management functions.
    PC Magazine points to the pressing need for simple, easy-to-use and efficient pricing models to encourage more frequent meetings for small businesses, while citing the market leaders as difficult to use, expensive and not conducive to ad-hoc collaboration. "We compared new entries that are able to move beyond traditional sales and marketing presentations into everyday collaboration," said Robert Lipschutz of PC Magazine. "Web conferencing doesn't make sense for small businesses and workgroups unless it's very easy to use and very affordable. Citrix GoToMeeting, which combines the best feature set in this roundup, with smooth and simple meeting initiation options, stands out as our top pick."
    "We set out to transform the meeting space with a solution that offers unparalleled simplicity, security and a flat-fee, 'All You Can Meet(TM)' pricing model to encourage more frequent meetings and a faster ROI for small and mid-sized businesses," said Klaus Schauser, CTO of Citrix Online. "We're thrilled to have our value proposition endorsed by PC Magazine, and to be selected by its editors as the top pick in the category among our peers and the industry leaders."
    Since its introduction last year, Citrix GoToMeeting has won more than 3,000 business customers because of its "Simpler is Better" way to start and manage meetings; its economical flat-fee subscription model, which eliminates expensive overage charges common among traditional services; and its robust security. The service is available in two versions:

--	Citrix GoToMeeting is for individuals and small businesses that require a single-user account and up to 10 meeting attendees;
--	Citrix GoToMeeting Corporate is for larger businesses that require reporting and administrative functionality, a minimum of five user accounts and up to 200 attendees per meeting through an optional event-license feature.
