Choosing the right webinar software is not easy. Instead of testing different software and asking your audience to install new software, why not use Google Hangouts instead?
Of course, the number of participants who can participate is limited, compared to most webinar programs where you can have a moderated meeting with hundreds of people. In webinar meetings of any size, the participation from everybody has to be limited, or you would have a 'hodge podge' of conversation from everybody that wouldn't make sense.
The the Google Hangouts method is really more for a discussion between a smaller number of people, more in the 6 to 8 person range. If you have more people than that, it could get a bit jumbled. The Hangouts can be used as a live presentation of a discussion between those 6 to 8 people, as they would be the only allowed live participants, but there still could be a larger number of people on the call, but their participation would be that of an observer.
The bright side? You can use Hangouts to record a webinar between you and other experts in your niche, package that product up and deliver it to your user base. It can also be used to broadcast to a select few people at once (as a premium service perhaps).
You should create an account on Google + and give Google Hangouts a try. This could be the ideal platform for your webinar!
