Webex Reviews

We use Webex for conferencing.

The most noteworthy aspect of Webex is its quality, which I found satisfactory without any notable issues.

In terms of features, it would be beneficial for Webex to focus on improving its chat functionality to make it more user-friendly. Additionally, enhancing communication operations to create a friendlier user experience would be advantageous. Other individuals who have tried using it faced challenges when attempting to share content with third parties during conversations or meetings.

I have been using Webex for approximately five years.

We encountered connectivity issues that could have stemmed from our network, the internet service provider (ISP), or other factors. It seemed to be an isolated incident, and I didn't have the opportunity to connect with tech support to diagnose the exact problem. It could have been related to an update or an issue with Webex itself. However, the problem was eventually resolved. While it was a significant concern for someone else, I had not personally received any complaints about it prior to that occurrence.

We have three people in my group that have used Webex.

Although there is internal technical support available, I didn't escalate the issue as it was resolved almost immediately. The presence of an active internal technical support team played a key role in swiftly fixing the problem.

I have a preference for alternative tools. Regarding conferences, Webex is acceptable. I want to be honest with you about this. Connecting on Webex is actually easy. I would consider it to be on par with Zoom in terms of overall quality. However, I'm aware that some external users from the company's perspective have encountered certain issues that have hindered their conversations. Honestly, they weren't particularly enthusiastic about this solution. When I need to communicate with these external customers through Webex, they tend to choose another tool. This doesn't inspire much confidence in me, but I understand it's a personal matter. Perhaps the design could be improved, but that's also just my personal opinion. Apart from that, I believe Webex has all the necessary features. As a regular Zoom user, I simply prefer to stick with Zoom based on my own experiences and preferences. Additionally, I find it more useful to use Zoom for both personal and team purposes.

For my ideal solution, I would suggest taking the best features from various tools. For instance, I would incorporate Slack's messaging capabilities and Zoom's audio-video functionality. That combination would be perfect for me. If it were possible to also include elements from other platforms like Telegram and Webex, it would further enhance the overall solution.

The solution requires maintenance. 

I rate Webex a seven out of ten.

We use Webex for virtual meetings. 

Webex's main feature is you get 1,000 participants per meeting by default and can join from 75 meeting units. You don't have to buy additional licenses.

I've been using Webex for 14 years. 

Webex is very global. Cisco developed it, and the guy who founded Zoom was part of Webex before Cisco acquired it. 

Webex support is absolutely great.

The requirements are the same as Zoom. It's all about the same. We take the customer's order and get a provisioning form. They just have to enter whatever URL they want. It's something like abcd.webex.com. They will be the admin, and we will take the email they give us. We will put that in, and once I have provisioned it, he gets a mail saying it is done and we call them to say it's ready.

He gets the email and clicks on that link to set up his password. Once he has set up his password, he can start administering and doing whatever he wants. For example, he can add the rest of the users. 

Earlier, Webex was relatively expensive. However, now that there is more competition in the market, they have lowered the price and added more features to match Zoom.

Cisco comes up with new updates and features every month. More features, and now they have acquired some companies and put together some features that others don't have. They acquired Slido and integrated some of its features.

I rate Webex 10 out of 10. Webex is good. I deployed it at a bank just five ago, and I'm expecting another order for Webex tomorrow. Webex has huge customers because they were already there in the enterprise space. 

Zoom entered into the commercial space for end-users. It's more of a solution for single users for training classes or music centers and all that. Cisco is not in that space. Cisco is the enterprise space. We got an order for 50 licenses for city governments in India yesterday.

I use the solution in my company to call our clients and manage areas such as business collaborations and webinars.

The most valuable features of the solution revolve around stability and performance. The average networking speed offered by the product is good.

Some concerns are raised by the company's team when it comes to the screen portion of the tool. There is a need to hire engineers to deal with the aforementioned issue.

I have experience with Webex.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

The team of administrators in my company deals with the company's support team.

One person can handle the product's initial setup phase. The initial setup phase doesn't require much time.

Mostly, I use Webex Client. I downloaded the solution from Webex's site. In general, I use Webex Enterprise Edition.

There is a need to pay the licensing charges to use Webex Enterprise Edition.

The product has simplified the remote work in our company, especially when we have to have client meetings and there is a need to add our internal team members who are working remotely.

The video quality, screen, and interface offered by the product are good.

From my side, I would recommend the product to others.

The product's security features seem good, but I don't know much about them.

The conference quality offered by the tool is good.

I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.

Cisco WebEx solution is used for voice and web conferencing across five domestic manufacturing facilities. The service enables our locations to utilize not only voice conferencing but also web which allows sharing of content.

It allows for collaboration between like teams located in different manufacturing facilities as well as corporate offices, including training.

The call me feature is one of the features our employees seem to love, they hate having to locate a phone number to call in to it. They say it is cumbersome.

In collaborating we sometimes find it difficult to let others "control" your meeting while they speak, users say it is cumbersome to "pass the puck".

We have had some audio quality issues, and troubleshooting can be difficult because of the details you need to provide to Cisco/WebEx, and that the call needs to have taken place very recently. We have users that sometimes don't even report the issue for a day or two.

We have had no issues with any limitations WebEx may have.

We have had some audio quality issues, and troubleshooting can be difficult because of the details you need to provide to Cisco/WebEx and that the call needs to have taken place very recently. We have users that sometimes don't even report the issue for a day or two.

InterCall: not as much collaboration ability.

Straightforward. Rolled out to users without issue.

Both, we had vendor assistance, but communication came from in-house to end users.

Unknown.

Yes, I don't remember.

Be aware of the different costs associated with voice and data (even if you don't use it you may still be charged).

The platform helped us a lot during COVID-19 to schedule meetings remotely.

We can access and conduct meetings remotely from anywhere using Webex. It saves a lot of challenges dealing with documents while preparing for meetings or interview sessions.

The product's price could be better. 

We have been using Webex for seven years.

I use Skype, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom as well. Some functions like screen sharing are challenging to use in Microsoft Teams. For Skype, it is more complicated to establish a powerful network.

We have to connect to the network and download the software using the browser for installation.

I implemented the product myself.

We purchase the product's yearly license. It is expensive.

I rate Webex an eight out of ten.

We use Cisco Webex for meetings. And we have different packages for that. It can also be integrated with Teams.

We recently switched over to Webex, and the changes allow us to make conference calls up to 100 members at the same time, depending on the package we go with. It can be done from a desk phone. There is screen sharing, group chat, and all of that included in Webex.

The solution is very valuable for conference calls because I see a lot of businesses are switching from work-from-home. When it was just two people trying to conference, it was easier. But now I see there are times when many people have to be on the call at the same time. That's definitely something that Webex can help with. The file-sharing is helpful too, so you aren't emailing all the time. The solution takes care of most of your communication needs.

The solution is stable. We've used Webex for training before, and we have never had problems. I personally have never had problems using Webex being on those calls, because the best part is that you definitely don't need to have access to internet to attend those calls. Sometimes, if you're on the go, you could simply just dial in and be a part of the meeting as well.

The solution is very scalable. You can have at least 100 people on a conference call.

From what I've heard and from the training we've had, the solution does seem to be very user-friendly. One does not have to be a very high-end IT person to be able to fix these things.

Our company does provide installation, and once the tech is on site, they can help you with most issues while they're there.

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. It's definitely something that is future-proofing your needs. I'm not sure how long we'll have this COVID, but this does seem to be a solution that not only handles the present demands, but also something that we would need in the future as well. With so many people working remotely, this definitely makes sense, for most businesses at least.

Webex greatly improves our team's collaboration by being our main communication tool and meeting platform, helping us work effectively regardless of location.

The chat and meeting scheduling features in Webex are most valuable for our team's productivity. The video quality during remote meetings is quite good, enhancing our communication and collaboration.

There is room for improvement in the chat history and search functionality in Webex, making it easier to find past conversations and commands by keywords.

I have been using Webex for about three years.

I would rate the stability of Webex as a ten out of ten.

Around 1,000 users in our company use Webex. I find it easy to scale since we have been able to scale it smoothly as our usage increases.

I prefer Teams over Webex because it integrates better with the other tools we use. In terms of features and functionalities, they are similar, as far as I know.

I would rate the Webex user interface and ease of use at around seven out of ten in terms of complexity.

Overall, I would rate Webex as an eight out of ten. It is a great product.

We were using Webex to meet with clients and also for internal consumption within the company.

Webex is a thin client and we like the interface. It is easy to use.

I would like to see additional online chat capabilities. You had to launch the app pretty much all of the time. These are areas where Webex can do a little better.

It could be easier to integrate with Calendar.

We have not experienced any bugs, glitches, or connection problems.

Prior to transitioning to teams, we had between 120,000 and 150,000 users.

We made the transition from Webex to Microsoft Teams and now use Teams for the most part.

The reason that we moved is that we're a Microsoft shop and we have a relationship with them. Microsoft is a diamond partner whereas Cisco is a gold partner.

We have seen this as a general pattern, where people move away from WebEx into either Teams or other collaboration tools. Webex is in the cloud but if they had more economical options, or any additional features compared to Teams and other products, it might be a value add.

The initial setup was okay.

This is an expensive product compared to Teams and it should be cheaper.

Overall, we were really happy with it but decided to leverage Teams instead.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
