Deborah,
Two years ago your assessment was probably on target, although we did have the captioning support at that time. In the meantime, we've improved the keyboard support in one of the releases, and committed to improving on the keyboard support (it is limited at present) and making the UI work with assistive technologies.

I'm not going to make excuses for the product - it isn't as accessible as it should be - but that said it can be used as one component of an accessible online meeting. In future versions we will make the experience much simpler for conducting such accessible meetings and have been working to turn Everett's thumbs up.

Thanks,
AWK
