I work at a large distributed company who also uses GotoMeeting for remote meetings. Mikogo is a great service for relatively small meetings. While not as robust as Gotomeeting, a quick cost/benefit analysis will prove Mikogo a winner (it's free!). It even has some screen annotation tools that other services don't offer. I like it and trust it enough that I've not only used it in the office but also from home to remote onto my brother's desktop to help diagnose computer problems. The only problem I've run into with it is that it will occasionally be blocked by corporate filters (mail/internet) as it's an .exe file.
Mikogo is good. Alternatively, you may have a look at on premise R-HUB web conferencing servers. It works from behind your firewall, hence better security.
