Microsoft Teams vs GoTo Meeting
Short answer: For an early-stage B2B SaaS team, Microsoft Teams costs less and covers more: the free plan runs meetings of up to 60 minutes and 100 people, and Teams Essentials is $4 a user a month paid yearly for meetings of up to 300, which customers join from a link without a Teams account. GoTo Meeting has no free plan and starts at $12 an organizer a month billed annually, so pick it only if you want dial-in conference lines for customer calls from its first plan.
