YN
Teaching and Learning Systems Manager at a university with 5,001-10,000 employees
Useful in webinars, meetings and online classrooms
One of the features that people enjoy is the whiteboard, providing opportunities for academics to present content and for students to contribute. The platform also allows for the creating of different rooms, enabling large classes to break into smaller groups for discussions. Students can then return to the main classroom to share their opinions. It integrates with LMS.

Branch Head, Training Branch at United States Marine Corps
It integrates well with our learning management system, but the break-out rooms are a little rough around the edges
There are definitely times when the sound becomes a bit unclear, and latency is also an issue. If there are too many people on video simultaneously, the whole system can slow down. The group breakout rooms are still somewhat rough around the edges. I would like to see them improve that feature so we can have more interaction in our classes.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This solution has provided an additional way to connect with students and they feel like it allows for participation in a variety of ways."
"The solution allows me to connect and collaborate with student live time, or asynchronously."
"The software is easy to use, has clear navigation and structure, and is highly customizable from an administrators standpoint (I've administered and used it as a client)."
"One of the features that people enjoy is the whiteboard, providing opportunities for academics to present content and for students to contribute. The platform also allows for the creating of different rooms, enabling large classes to break into smaller groups for discussions. Students can then return to the main classroom to share their opinions. It integrates with LMS."
"Document loading and annotation."
"Webex Meeting's most valuable features are screen-sharing and remote access."
"The most valuable features for me are its stable connection, user-friendly interface, and screen-sharing files. Cisco's support is also very valuable."
"Installation was straightforward."
"It made it simple for users to join, work together, and share screens."
"During meetings, the feature of closed captioning, scripting, and recording was convenient for keeping minutes and making available the information discussed to review meeting minutes. Also to keep track of all the agreements and discussions during those meetings. It worked well with our email systems and other communication services integrated into the functionalities."
"Having Webex has been crucial for maintaining our training programs during COVID."
"We appreciate how Webex integrates with our system. When an employee completes a course, Webex documents it and updates the employee's training records."
 

Cons

"The system can overload when too many try logging in."
"If there were maybe more tutorials outside of what I'm aware the university is suggesting, I would take more tutorials on effective ways to deliver content. I come from the industry and content was always needed when people that were observing were smart and involved and decision-makers instead of so passively just trying to pass the course. In my imagination, the tutorials would be a tool where the learners themselves can have much more hands-on learning during a Collaborate session."
"I occasionally had difficulties logging in because I think that the system was overloaded with too many people."
"I wish I could upload assignments from my Android tablet or iPhone, but I guarantee that specific feature is in the works."
"We faced outages when the user limit went over a certain number."
"Originally, I was disappointed in behavior of the early Ultra version. It did not exhibit to students what I am showing on my own machine."
"There are definitely times when the sound becomes a bit unclear, and latency is also an issue. If there are too many people on video simultaneously, the whole system can slow down. The group breakout rooms are still somewhat rough around the edges. I would like to see them improve that feature so we can have more interaction in our classes."
"The features I think can be improved are integrations with third-parties; for example, Microsoft 360 and other shared folders."
"It could be more secure."
"It would be nice if there were more integrations available."
"There are definitely times when the sound becomes a bit unclear, and latency is also an issue."
"Webex Meetings could be improved with more collaborative features and an archive of information like appointments and discussions that can be shared with everybody."
