Webex is very scalable, and I do not think that our organization has ever reached its limit.
CTO at Trust-IT Solutions
I believe Webex should be performing fine scalability-wise since when we called, we should have been more than 20 in the call together.

Room For Improvement

ScreenConnect users seek improvements in customization, documentation clarity, setup processes, integration, and user-friendly configurations, including licensing transparency.
Webex needs a user-friendly interface, better integrations, efficient features, and competitive pricing to satisfy various organizational needs.
Zoom has a big advantage in simplicity, especially for the other side to connect to a session.
CTO at Trust-IT Solutions
Connecting to Webex can be technical, and it would be beneficial to have a way to connect anonymously using a simple code instead of going through microphone issues.
Web Designer / Developer & Creative Professional at Federal University of Technology Akure
Continued enhancement to the mobile experience would be valuable for users who frequently work while traveling or away from their desk.

Setup Cost

ScreenConnect offers cost-effective pricing and flexibility, appealing to enterprises with discounts, reliability, and a comprehensive feature set.
Webex's pricing is high, with limited free features, and demands competitive rates for smaller businesses, despite bundling benefits.
The licensing model doesn't work because if I want to implement it for an organization, I need to pay a per-user license, which makes it very restrictive.
Program Manager at a healthcare company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Since Webex is offered as a cloud-based service, deployment and onboarding were relatively straightforward compared to solutions that require significant on-premises infrastructure.
Senior Lead DevOps Engineer at Kyndryl
Webex is expensive.

Valuable Features

It has improved the incident resolution time by getting into a call in Webex rooms and remediating the issues together as soon as possible.
Senior Consultant at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
The third feature is the AI-powered intelligence that notes down minutes of the meeting, allowing us to concentrate on the content rather than jotting down points.
Product Specialist at Frontier Business Systems
Webex takes a strong approach to AI governance and security, which is particularly important in enterprise environments where sensitive and business information is discussed and shared.
Senior Lead DevOps Engineer at Kyndryl

Todd Blake - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior IT Specialist at a healthcare company with 11-50 employees
Simple to set up, reasonable pricing, and useful remote control capabilities
I'm on the latest version of the solution. I just updated it yesterday. While we have the solution on-premises at this time, we'll likely move to the cloud later this year. They have a trial version that you can try. They have a free version that you can try as well. I use it myself to support my family. I would try the free version or the trial version depending on your business. They can set you up and you can get to see all the features. I would also advocate going to the cloud version. Don't bother with the on-prem. It's just easier to jump to the cloud. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Virtual training has supported collaborative learning and now needs a simpler and clearer interface
Webex can be simplified in terms of user interface, where many features should be displayed in a compact view, with similar features grouped together and a minimalistic design helping users understand what each button does. If specific features are not needed, they should not distract you, and some features should appear as sliding elements for ease of access. Additionally, connecting to Webex can be technical, and it would be beneficial to have a way to connect anonymously using a simple code instead of going through microphone issues.
