Find out what your peers are saying about Zoom Video Communications, Cisco, TeamViewer and others in Virtual Meetings."I can view the status and availability of colleagues or team members, which makes it easy to approach them when they are available."
"The solution could improve by having more dashboards and enhancing the processing speed."
"One of the most valuable features of Webex was that it was easy to use and there were no hassles."
"It's a nice tool for virtual meetings and I'm satisfied with its performance."
"I don't think Zoom has anywhere near the features and functionality of Webex."
"Webex has one-click calling, which makes things easier. You click, and it automatically dials in to the meetings without pressing additional buttons. It's easy for people who aren't on WebEx. That was helpful."
"The most valuable features of Webex are the depth of the tone and the quality of the picture. I find them better than Teams or Zoom."
"I have found the most valuable features to be the high quality of the video and the audio. Additionally, the graphical user interface is good and it is easy to use."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The webinar should be integrated into Sametime for a larger number of participants."
"The interface could be a bit more user-friendly."
"One area that could use improvement in Webex is the connection speed."
"Webex's stability could be improved."
"My biggest issue with the solution involves its price, which I find to be prohibitive for small governments and modest-sized schools."
"Everybody these days uses virtual meeting solutions because we're all remote working. It would be a benefit if there were permanent collaboration spaces for projects. For example, the way Teams has its teams folders and shared locations. Webex is missing that feature, or maybe it has it and I'm not aware of it. However, it needs a permanent sharing location for when projects can get stored and can be a collaboration space as opposed to only a meeting space."
"Webex support is not good. When we try to open a ticket, it takes approximately 24 hours. With Microsoft, we get support within two or three hours."
"There could be a feature available to record the meetings."
"The base application uses a lot of resources. They could work on the performance of the application so that it's less heavy."
