Sentiment score
6.6

The support was fine, but it was not a product of Webex per se; it was a product of the third-party we were working with.
Program Manager at a healthcare company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Webex supports our daily communication and collaboration needs, but not extensively, as all support is via our service center.

Product Specialist at Frontier Business systems
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.
Web Designer / Developer & Creative Professional at Federal University of Technology Akure

Room For Improvement

ScreenConnect users seek improvements in customization, documentation clarity, setup processes, integration, and user-friendly configurations, including licensing transparency.
Users seek Webex improvements in interface, performance, integration, cost, scalability, security, setup, file-sharing, and call quality.
Better integration with other productivity tools and a more streamlined user experience across desktop and mobile devices in Webex would be beneficial.
Full Stack Developer at a consultancy with 1-10 employees
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
Zoom has a big advantage in simplicity, especially for the other side to connect to a session.
CTO at Trust-IT Solutions
 

Setup Cost

ScreenConnect offers cost-effective pricing and flexibility, appealing to enterprises with discounts, reliability, and a comprehensive feature set.
Webex pricing varies widely, often seen as expensive, with costs improving on bulk purchases and advanced features included.
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
Webex is expensive.
CTO at Trust-IT Solutions
 

Valuable Features

ConnectWise ScreenConnect provides secure remote access with powerful management, customizable branding, and seamless integration, enhancing global client interactions.
Webex offers high-quality sound, video, seamless integration, security, collaboration tools, AI meeting notes, and real-time translation.
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
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
Screen sharing is appreciated as a feature. During discussions and demos, it makes collaboration more effective, especially when reviewing designs, websites, or project progress with clients and team members.

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.

Collaborating in hybrid incident calls has become faster while the meeting interface still needs fixes
The best features are the ability to schedule meetings and launch ad hoc meetings. Additionally, we can create breakout rooms within the meeting itself, which is another excellent feature. Whenever we have production issues, many teams join a single Webex call. Sometimes we need to group together as separate smaller groups and work in parallel to identify the production issues. In those cases, we create Webex breakout rooms and each member joins the corresponding breakout session to progress on their task. Webex helps significantly in the hybrid environment. When we are working from home, it is very easy for us to meet with other team members and the management to get in touch and progress. Webex improves communication because even if we are working from home, we can connect with people and talk to them on a video call. It has improved the incident resolution time by getting into a call in Webex rooms and remediating the issues together as soon as possible. Audio and video quality is excellent for Webex. It has saved considerable time in terms of incident remediation. Whenever we have issues, we jump on a call and work together in parallel. This approach saves time and improves efficiency.
