Not that long ago, I posted about a really cool free web conference software called openmeetings.  It was a little harsh in terms of install, setup, and configuration.  The hardest part was scaling the product in terms of networking and QOS.  I planned on coming back to that product for more testing when someone tipped me off to DimDim.  DimDim is simply a killer free web conference software package.  Also, it’s hosted (if you choose that route), up to 20 attendants – and, did I mention free – forever!  Yes, you can download the open source software and host it yourself, but DimDim blows open the limitations of openmeetings.

DimDim has different hosted solutions that are very cost effective.  20 attendees and under is free.  20-50 attendees is the Pro version and is $19/month.  The enterprise version is up to 1000 attendees and they claim 1/3 the cost of competitors.  As I said before, you can download the open source version and host it yourself.  Did I mention that it includes a VMWare appliance for super easy installation!

Rather than go through the feature set, I’ll let Steve Chazin (formerly of that little know company called Apple ;^)  explain it:

I love this software.  If you have any interest in doing meetings – you really need to take a look at DimDim.
