There are several options in the vendor market for Synchronous learning. Depending on the budget and need of their personnel, the following are some of the vendors available in the market.
One of them is Adobe Connect. It is uses flash technology. The company charges fees after a 30-day trial. It has also mobile version of the application in iOs, Android and Blackberry operating systems. Another software is the Cissco WebEx. It uses java technology and it's free as long as there not more three (3) people are using it. It has mobile app version as well. The Blackboard Collaborate and the GoToMeeting applications, both uses java technology; offer 30-day free trial and have mobile app version of the applications.Google+ hangouts, which I use frequently for group project meetings, is a free synchronous application. The above softwares are all hosted softwares, but there are also open source software packages. However, these open source software packages will require a site-based IT person who can help in maintaining the software in working condition for continued use.
