Find out in this report how the two Virtual Meetings solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The UI is user-friendly and very good overall."
"What I like most about Cisco Meeting Server is its quick management. The solution also has a straightforward configuration."
"You can use the Cisco Meeting Server to set up conference calls and virtual meetings. Those are the two primary functions of Meeting Server. Most people in the company are using Microsoft Teams, so we only use Meeting Server when we have an internal meeting for all staff."
"Cisco Meeting Server is an easy and less complex solution."
"The share screen option available during conferences is one of the best features of Cisco Meeting Server."
"The GUI is nice and easy to operate."
"As compared to Zoom, I like its user interface more. It is much easier to use, and I also find it more stable."
"The most noteworthy aspect of Webex is its quality, which I found satisfactory without any notable issues."
"The best feature is to be able to share the screen or just some application we want, even a video or audio, then request the remote control of the device with which they have connected."
"It is user-friendly."
"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."
"The solution is useful for communication."
"The product's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with multiple products."
"A few features are missing on the Meetings app, like a recording function. My understanding is that you need to buy a separate recording solution. It's modular, so you have to enable some functions if you want to use them. For example, we had to enable the Mood function. Recording is the primary feature we'd like to see in the app."
"This is a difficult solution to install and it should be made easier."
"Cisco Meeting Server should include a feature to control another user's screen during a remote session."
"What would make Cisco Meeting Server better is integrating it with Zoom and Teams so that you can connect or make a call through any of the two third-party solutions."
"In Cisco Meeting Server, GUI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Nowadays, it is hard to set up meetings using Webex since it has become a complicated process."
"The solution should come as a big client for the system. It should be able to be used just like chat software when necessary, similar to instant messaging."
"There could be a feature available to record the meetings."
"The interface could be a bit more user-friendly."
"The collaborative features could improve in Webex. There should not be the typical one on one connection that we have had in the past."
"There were some latency issues that could have been addressed if they had a data center in our location, e.g. the African region."
"Currently, I'm unable to find any loophole in Webex, but in terms of areas for improvement, it would be better if a user is informed about any new updates or new features added to the tool."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
