Hi there Product Hunters! I’m VP Product for join.me, the simple screen sharing and online meeting product. We’re excited to roll out the join.me button exclusively on Product Hunt. It is super easy to integrate and it allows your users to launch join.me within your product’s experience. We want to hear what you think about the join.me button. Looking forward to your comments below.

@craigdaniel awesome work! Quick question: after a user downloads it for the first time to view a screenshare, does the screenshare open in a new window/tab or in an area inside the app?

@willaaye To present your screen, you need to download the app. To view, you simply need a browser to navigate to the link. i.e. http://join.me/123456789 We're also working on the ability to IFrame that link as well, so you can embed the viewer in your app.

@swb1192 here's an interactive tour of how join.me works: https://www.join.me/howitworks If you want to see how the integration works, go to https://www.join.me/anywhere , click "Get my Button". You'll see the "Start join.me" button. Just click it. Run the downloaded app, and it will instantly fire up join.me. Note: A developer can register a startMeetingCallback handler to get the join.me viewer URL. When you navigate to this URL, you can view the screen without downloading anything.

@craigdaniel What's the difference between using this and just putting a link to my join.me URL? Do you have a video demo of this? I'm having a hard time understanding what this is.

We tried to move from GoToMeeting to join.me a year ago. Even paid around $500. Product did not work. My founders in Europe had bad connections. Audio was bad, etc. Long story short, join.me did not refund us, despite all the issues we've had. Nevertheless, this looks clean and easy. However, won't recommend join.me.

@thenitai Nitai - that's terrible to hear. I'm really sorry about that. Please email me directly at firstname.lastname at join.me and I'll help you out. We deployed a new audio data center in Europe late last year. The VoIP is similar to the same quality level as US-based VoIP.

I'm really struggling to understand the use case for this? I've read through the comments, and I'm still confused as to what this gives me? We use Join.me to do demonstrations of our product pre, and post purchase, for training, and various other things, I'm trying to think where this button is useful?

@mattlanham thanks for your candor. Hopefully I can clear it up for you. The best integrations are products where their users have a need to do a live presentation at some point. In particular, we've found that Sales, Support, and Education are strong verticals. One nice Sales integration is with Highspot (https://www.highspot.com/product...). They have a Live Pitch tool that allows sales reps to give presentations of slides or documents over the web. If the sales rep wants to give a live demo to their prospect, they click the embedded join.me button, which launches join.me on their desktop and immediately shares their screen. The join.me button also passes the join.me URL (i.e. http://join.me/123-456-789) back to the Highspot site via javascript. Highspot takes that URL and pushes it to the viewers browser and redirects them to the live demo via join.me. So, basically with one click, the sales rep can demo via screen share and the prospect on the other side doesn't have to do anything but watch. Prior to the join.me button integration, the sales rep would have to start join.me on their desktop and communicate the join.me URL to their prospect. The prospect would have to open a new browser tab and enter the URL to view their screen. Still simple, but multiple clicks by both parties and open to failure and delay. Please let me know if that helps.
