Here's a link to the chrome screen share extension that lets you cobrowse on any website. Below, we’ll share how our team uses it in both expected and unexpected ways, starting with how it empowers our sales team to deliver rapid, impactful demos.
1. Sales Team: Rapid, Real-Time Demos
At Upscope, our sales team relies on the Chrome screen share extension to make product demos seamless and interactive. Unlike traditional screen-sharing tools, which often require extensive setup or can look blurry, this extension allows our sales reps to:
Share a specific browser tab with prospects during a live demo, ensuring pixel-perfect clarity.
Walk prospects through product features directly, demonstrating how our tools solve real problems.
Highlight features, click through workflows, and answer questions in real time to make the product experience tangible.
This setup is particularly useful for situations where we’re demoing our cobrowsing product itself. Since cobrowsing normally requires integration into a website, the Chrome extension allows our sales reps to bypass that step and showcase the product in action across any browser tab.
2. Pardeep: Collaborative Learning and Meetings
Pardeep (me) uses it for Spanish lessons, including completing quizzes with an online Spanish teacher based in Granada. Those Spanish conjugations are not simple and, when you're filling in quizzes, you need the teacher to point to the right answer or even fill it out. As Spanish learners know, when the teacher starts spelling out a word in Spanish, those alphabet letters don't sound the same as the English ones, so it helps if they can just point or type for me.
Also, for internal meetings, it's just simpler to send a link to someone. The problem with other screen share apps is the blurry screen. You don't get that with cobrowsing tech as its recreating the actual code on the page, so it's pixel perfect. It also allows the other person to point at something rather than saying "the button on the top right, no, the other one, the green one".
3. Minh: Streamlining Group Decisions
Minh is scheduled. She's prepared. She's ready. She's a machine. Nothing frustrates her more than booking a trip together with unprepared friends, so she's resorted to sharing her chrome tab to them to pick the right hotel and get it booked there and then.
4. Productivity & Mom Stuff
Joe uses the extension for booking flights with others and for showing his mom stuff. If his mom can use it, that means it's a winner. Also, if there's an efficiency gain from doing something a different way, you can bet that Joe is doing it.
These are just the use cases we know about:
This chrome screen share extension is being used for teaching, booking, selling and onboarding. We've had people turn up and tell us about a bug and then found out they're running tuition sessions on complicated maths problems. It's sort of obvious but being able to click together on the same tab changes what screen sharing is.
The other great thing about it - no shame.
When you're only sharing your chrome tab, you don't need to worry about a slack conversation from a colleague appearing on the screen or someone seeing your weird desktop background image and judging it. It's nice to know you don't have to worry about that stuff when you send the screen share link.
