Similar but different. Netmeeting is point to point. SharedView appears to communicate through Microsoft servers on ports 80 and 443 so firewalls should not be a problem. In netmeeting you have an optional ILS server which is basically just a list of names and IP addresses. Sharedview requires you to login to a "passport" type of login and then you can easily send an email to the other end which has a URL with the session name and password embedded (they just need to click the link and you need to accept).
