Real-time collaboration has transformed daily team communication and shared document workflows
I think there are some issues like when I share any photo, it's working very slow and the other end partner receives it after a few seconds. It's time-consuming. I would prefer if any documents or files we share with Google Chat Workspace could be smoother, similar to Zoom. That is my preference for improvement.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I am working with multiple users in the same sheet at the same time, which is really amazing for all of us because we are working from different places but in the same sheet at the same time."
"Screen share is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"The stream is very smooth; that's what I like about Webex, as other video conference solutions like Zoom sometimes freeze and get buggy, but Webex doesn't."
"Lag-free video communication and virtual meeting software which runs smoothly."
"I am completely satisfied with the tech support."
"Webex has enhanced the remote team collaboration process regarding time management and cost savings."
"Webex helps us collaborate better. We can work with customers and our team in real-time, share screens, and use a whiteboard. It's been really helpful."
"Webex has frequent updates and it is very good."
 

Cons

"I think there are some issues like when I share any photo, it's working very slow and the other end partner receives it after a few seconds."
"The scalability is not that good. If we small group meeting the solution is good, but if there is a large group of people to join the meeting then the network seems unstable."
"The solution could improve by having cross-platform compatibility. For example, if you wanted to have a call with someone with Microsoft Teams you could do it with Webex."
"The connectivity can be improved because sometimes when we talk to clients that are overseas the connection is kind of poor. The video will be pixelated and we will need to turn off the video because the voice gets delayed."
"We switched from Webex to Teams because there was a lag in the WebEx experience and also a lack of integration."
"I would like to see the addition of new features that will add value to the product."
"It would be great if they had a directory that you could consult for the meeting dial-in numbers."
"The product needs to improve its integration. I'm not sure how difficult it is for the IT team to set up the integration. Once set up, it's easy but still not as straightforward as other platforms, like Microsoft Teams, where everything is within the same technical environment. To ensure further security, face authentication should also be added for all internal corporate users logged into the platform."
"Webex's stability could be improved. It crashes very often."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not aware of the pricing details."
"The solution is low-cost for a hybrid model."
"I have recently switched to a different solution. WebEx is more costly. There are equivalent solutions at a lower cost."
"The charges attached to the subscriptions of the product are okay. There are no extra charges to be paid in addition to the standard licensing fees."
