Join a Standard Support Session on Mac

When a GoToAssist Corporate customer joins a standard support session , the GoToAssist Corporate Customer installation package (including the GoTo Opener application) will be downloaded onto their computer. By leaving the GoTo Opener application installed, customers will be able to join future support sessions more quickly by avoiding the extended download process.

Note: To support customers that join standard support sessions from a Mac running macOS Catalina (10.15) or later, the representative must be running HelpAlert v11.9.11, b1379 or later.

The installation package includes the following components:

  • GoToAssist Corporate Customer desktop application
    This is the main software that customers use to join support sessions.

  • GoTo Opener application
    This 'helper' application downloads as the GoTo Opener.dmg, then installs as the GoTo Opener application. This application is required to install and launch the GoToAssist Corporate Customer desktop application. It must be installed on the computer, even if the Customer application is already installed.

    Note: If you remove the GoTo Opener application at a later time, you'll need to go through the entire download process again. We don’t recommend that customers do this if they frequently join support sessions, as they will lose the benefit of faster join times.

These instructions apply to Mac customers only; also see Join a Standard Support Session on Windows for more information.
