		Pros from Real Users Pros Easy to use and very convenient for clients who are elderly and don't use another video conferencing platform. CrankWheel is the easiest the program that I have ever used. Many potential clients that cannot get onto other products have no issues connecting via CrankWheel. Ease of use for presenter and ease for end user is CrankWheel's biggest strength. CrankWheel is a game-changer for agents and brokers. It provides instant screen sharing without downloads, ensuring secure, compliant client interactions. Perfect for meeting new federal requirements, it builds trust, improves communication, and streamlines sales. CrankWheel enhances professionalism, efficiency, and transparency—making it an essential tool for today’s insurance professionals. I love that no software needs to be downloaded on the client side. This makes it super easy for them and less hassle for us. I've been using CrankWheel for almost two years now and I couldn't recommend a better webinar service, They make it super convenient with option to send meeting links via text, email, or copy the link. Options to share screen, window or browser tab. Webcam optional, you can schedule meetings, pause screenshares, chrome extension, and even set it up so that when people join the meeting, they need to provide a confirmation number to get in. I'm a licensed self-employed individual and CrankWheel also has the option to build in consent forms in both English and Spanish for the client to fill out right there. All in all, I get my money's worth every month and never regret my investment. Super satisfied with my experience. CrankWheel is an outstanding platform for real-time sales presentations and instant screen sharing. It’s simple, fast, and doesn’t require any downloads, which makes it perfect for connecting with clients on the go. I love how seamlessly it integrates with my workflow — it lets me show demos or quotes instantly, boosting trust and conversion rates. The interface is clean and intuitive, and the ability to share your screen through just a link or phone number is a game changer. CrankWheel has genuinely made remote selling smoother, faster, and more professional. Highly recommend it for any sales team! - easy to use - easy for clients to use - never lags - great features & high quality resolution! It is easy to learn, share and use. I love it because it gives you a professional presentation of your work to clients and it is different from loom or other sharing screens options. I just love it. Crankwheel is so easy to use, it is quick, simple and easy. My potential clients love it! It helps build trust immediately.
