I have chosen this as my project. So far so good. I have been able to install the software as a moderator and a participant. There is 1 small glitch and 1 annoyence.
The glitch is that the user is instructuted to cut and paste an internet address that has 2 lines. The problem is when an email is forwarded it puts >> (greater than ) in every line, which needs to be removed manually. This is obvious to a more experienced computer user, that is, after getting an error message!
The annoyance is that during installation the software does not detect the user's connection speed and asks what is the speed of the connection. Depending on the user and where it is connecting from it may not be so easy to tell if it is modem, DSL, cable, etc.
Using it was not so obvious so I have signed up for 2 live online training sessions for next week. I am going to try using it on saturday and try the recorded training session.
I am hoping to get this going fast so we I can invite everyone to participate.

Carmen,
You can pretty easily hide the long URL behind either an HTML tag or use tinyURL to convert it to a small one.
I am not sure of the way you are inviting people, but usually the Elluminate scheduling/invitation backend can be customized to send out HTML emails pretty easily.
If you have more questions, you can definitely check out our support site at http://www.elluminate.com/support-portal/ or just email at support@elluminate.com
