GoTo, one of the world's most popular brands for unified communications and collaboration, recently announced that they were building on their video and chat solutions with a complete UCaaS offering. The new "GoToConnect" service is the Unified Communications as a service solution for companies that want to combine meetings, voice, rooms, and webinars into the same comprehensive environment.
