More PGi GlobalMeet Pros →

"I don't think Zoom has anywhere near the features and functionality of Webex.""Overall the quality of the solution is very good.""The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward.""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 a valuable solution for virtual meetings.""The installation of Webex is simple. You only need to click an executable file to run it. it is very easy.""The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is the easiest for participants to get connected to.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the fact that it is easy to share screens, a major reason I chose it."

Cons
"The tool is slow in updating changes. It also has a poor dashboard operating system."

More PGi GlobalMeet Cons →

"The interconnectivity of all of the solution's facilities and functions can be more complex than that which is involved in basic configuration, when equipment, telephone extensions or other mobile apps are thrown into the mix.""The solution can improve by adding a smaller version for small business usage or for personal use. The solution is geared towards larger companies and enterprises.""The performance of WebEx could be improved. If you're using it on a mobile device and on the laptop, you sometimes get glitches, where you've answered the call or joined a meeting on a laptop and your mobile device doesn't quite know what's going on. It may just be technical glitches, but it seems to be a bit shaky sometimes on mobile devices.""The initial implementation was a bit difficult. If they could simplify that aspect of the solution, it would be helpful for future users.""The UX should be more user-friendly. I know others don't like the UX because it's a little complicated to use.""In terms of features, it would be beneficial for Webex to focus on improving its chat functionality to make it more user-friendly. Additionally, enhancing communication operations to create a friendlier user experience would be advantageous. Other individuals who have tried using it faced challenges when attempting to share content with third parties during conversations or meetings.""The only thing it maybe needs is a chat.""When it was just two people trying to conference, it was easier. But now I see there are times when many people have to be on the call at the same time. That's definitely something that Webex can help with."
