To allow the hosting of Webinars with up to 1,000 people, Dimdim, an open source browser-based Web conferencing company, reportedly unveiled Dimdim Webinar, which utilizes only a Web browser.

 

Boston-based Dimdim offers customers multiple free and commercial on-premise and cloud-based solutions which can support thousands of attendees per meeting.  Dimdim Webinar lets users benefit from a personalized platform and find ways to market, promote and realize profits from Webinars.

 

Dimdim also announced a partnership with event management and ticketing services company Eventbrite to enhance the Webinar experience of users.

 

“Virtual meetings are one of our fastest-growing segments,” said Eventbrite CEO, Kevin Hartz, in a statement. “This is why we’ve partnered with Dimdim to offer the best and most affordable web meeting service alongside our leading online event management and ticketing services.”

 

Being a browser-based service Dimdim Webinar is economical and leverages the advantages of the Dimdim 5.1 platform used by consumers and businesses. It features one-click attendance which allows attendees to participate in Webinars, events and presentations without installing any software.

 

Attendees can enter a Webinar from any browser easily. Hosts are also not required to install any software to schedule, record or share their presentations.

 

Company sources said that Dimdim’s Webinar widget allows personalized registration which makes registration, joining and promoting Webinars easy. The Dimdim Webinar Widget accepts registrations on the user’s Website, blog or any Web page with one-click. The look and features of the Webinar can also be personalized.

 

Users can market their Webinar and promote it using Dimdim’s Webinar Widget through their Website, blog, Twitter, Facebook (News - Alert) or any social community either before or after the Webinar. As Dimdim Webinar is browser-based participants require only a simple URL to join in.

 

The reporting and tracking feature lets hosts get full details about Webinar attendees, who attended, who missed the Webinar and how participants interacted. Hosts can share their desktop with a single click.

 

Dimdim announced a free, 30-day trial for all premium offerings with the launch. After the trial period, users get to use a 20-attendee version of Dimdim Webinar for free.
