Webex Reviews

One of the best things about Webex which I liked was that it was simple and to the point. It separated its video conferencing capabilities from other extra capabilities, so you had two different products for the virtual meetings and for collaboration. This separation, these different products, made it easy to do what you wanted to do, and to get to the point of what you wanted to do.

The only reason why we could not stay with Webex was because they didn't have a data center in the African region. There were latency issues as well, so we couldn't continue using the tool. These are its areas for improvement. Other than these issues, there's no other area for improvement, because Webex is good the way it is.

Having a data center in the African region will help improve the latency issues, without incurring additional costs. There is a way that you can improve the latency issues, but you have to buy hardware from Cisco to put into your data center. Not a lot of companies would like to do that.

I've used Webex a year ago, for six months.

We found the stability of this solution satisfying.

We were satisfied with the scalability of Webex.

My rating for Cisco tech support is ten out of ten. Bruno, who handled our issues, was top-notch. Anything we needed, Bruno was on top of it. He was top-notch, so 100%, it's a ten out of ten.

The initial setup and deployment of Webex was easy and straightforward. It was on point, and there were no issues.

I evaluated Microsoft Teams.

We used an open-source license for Webex.

We had 2,500 users of Webex. The meetings we had using it had a maximum of 2,500 users.

I'm rating Webex a ten out of ten, functionality-wise.

We use Webex for meetings. I get a meeting link, log in, and follow it. If a client update comes through, I follow the updates or postpone it for a day because I'm very busy. But otherwise, I simply follow the updates.

My company is a one-woman company, and I use it when working for a client and on a personal basis. I sometimes use Skype or a video call on WhatsApp, but that's not really a meeting platform. Those are then personal video calls.

I like that it can accommodate larger groups of listeners. I think in my client's organization, they use Webex for meetings with a larger group of listeners. I believe Skype For Business is not preferred. I think they use Webex or their own custom platform because it accommodates more users in one meeting

It would be better if it were more secure. I do expect Webex to keep up with hackers and their latest techniques.

I have been regularly using Webex for six or eight months.

Webex seems like a scalable solution. I have attended meetings with hundreds of users or hundreds of listeners. But I haven't had meetings with thousands of users in one session. Large meetings have a practical problem as people want a chance to say what they want to say, but that's an organizational thing and not a technical thing.

For me, the initial setup was very straightforward. I have been a software developer in the past, so give me software, and I will install it and use it. 

I implemented this solution.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Webex an eight.

I use Webex for meetings. It's useful in virtual meetings. It's a video communication tool.

I find Webex to be a good solution. You can share your screen, you can grant control to other meeting participants, you can record, etc. It's okay to use because it does not cause lag, and the video runs smoothly. I'm happy using Webex.

I don't have any complaints about Webex. I'm also using Microsoft Teams and they are the same, but there's some difficulty in Webex, particularly when a third party needs access and that third party is not part of the domain of the company, it could be difficult.

I've been using Webex for three years. We're using it in the company I work for.

Webex is stable here in Thailand. I have not experienced a frozen screen or interruption when I'm having my meeting on Webex.

The scalability of Webex is okay. The biggest meeting I had was with 50 participants, but sometimes, we need to place some of the participants on mute.

There is no issue with Webex technical support, but there's a support issue in the reseller side. From my company's reseller to our customers, there are many Webex cases, but technical support is okay in terms of troubleshooting open cases.

We pay a yearly license for Webex.

I evaluated Microsoft Teams.

In my company, we use Webex and Microsoft Teams.

There are between 5,000 to 10,000 users of Webex in the company. I'm one of the end users of this solution. 10 people make up the technical team that handles the deployment and maintenance of Webex in my company.

On a scale of zero to ten, with ten being the highest, and zero being the worst, I'm giving this solution a score of nine, and I'm recommending it to others who want to start using it, because Webex is okay in my experience.

I'd say that in zero to ten, I'm recommend in the eight or nine. I think it's okay in my experience, yes.

I'm rating Webex a nine out of ten.

I am using the solution for virtual meetings and for file sharing.

Integrates well with other Cisco solutions.

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. Not everyone wants to use the same virtual meeting application.

I have been using Webex for approximately 

I have not needed to use support because when there is an issue they fix it fast and sometimes you do not notice there was a problem.

I have used Microsoft Teams and Skype for business. We used them for instant messaging and for sharing documents.

Microsoft Teams is well integrated with other solutions, such as SharePoint. There is everything you need, such as email.

There is an annual license required for this solution.

Webex is a good product. I think it's nice when you have other Cisco products onboarded. It gives you the full configurations that you want. If you are using a Cisco telephone system and you using WebEx, it's the same thing. You can jump in from one end to the other. It is useful.

I rate Webex an eight out of ten.

We are a services company, and we use Webex as a platform, depending upon the client that we have.

We use Webex, for training, and for meetings.

Webex offers a wide range of useful features.

It is comparable; they are all the same.

Webex is pretty robust.

The pricing could be improved.

I have been working with Webex for 22 years.

I use the most recent version of this platform.

Webex is a stable solution.

It's a scalable platform

Our company has 250 employees, and everyone uses Webex.

As it is client-driven, increasing usage is dependent on the clients.

We have contacted technical support, and have not had any difficulties.

I have some experience with Adobe Connect and Zoom.

The initial setup is straightforward. It is not difficult in any way.

We don't require a lot of staff to deploy and maintain this solution.

Webex is very expensive.

I would recommend getting training and learning how to use it well.

I would rate Webex an eight out of ten.

We were using Webex to meet with clients and also for internal consumption within the company.

Webex is a thin client and we like the interface. It is easy to use.

I would like to see additional online chat capabilities. You had to launch the app pretty much all of the time. These are areas where Webex can do a little better.

It could be easier to integrate with Calendar.

We have not experienced any bugs, glitches, or connection problems.

Prior to transitioning to teams, we had between 120,000 and 150,000 users.

We made the transition from Webex to Microsoft Teams and now use Teams for the most part.

The reason that we moved is that we're a Microsoft shop and we have a relationship with them. Microsoft is a diamond partner whereas Cisco is a gold partner.

We have seen this as a general pattern, where people move away from WebEx into either Teams or other collaboration tools. Webex is in the cloud but if they had more economical options, or any additional features compared to Teams and other products, it might be a value add.

The initial setup was okay.

This is an expensive product compared to Teams and it should be cheaper.

Overall, we were really happy with it but decided to leverage Teams instead.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

We use Webex for virtual meetings. 

Webex's main feature is you get 1,000 participants per meeting by default and can join from 75 meeting units. You don't have to buy additional licenses.

I've been using Webex for 14 years. 

Webex is very global. Cisco developed it, and the guy who founded Zoom was part of Webex before Cisco acquired it. 

Webex support is absolutely great.

The requirements are the same as Zoom. It's all about the same. We take the customer's order and get a provisioning form. They just have to enter whatever URL they want. It's something like abcd.webex.com. They will be the admin, and we will take the email they give us. We will put that in, and once I have provisioned it, he gets a mail saying it is done and we call them to say it's ready.

He gets the email and clicks on that link to set up his password. Once he has set up his password, he can start administering and doing whatever he wants. For example, he can add the rest of the users. 

Earlier, Webex was relatively expensive. However, now that there is more competition in the market, they have lowered the price and added more features to match Zoom.

Cisco comes up with new updates and features every month. More features, and now they have acquired some companies and put together some features that others don't have. They acquired Slido and integrated some of its features.

I rate Webex 10 out of 10. Webex is good. I deployed it at a bank just five ago, and I'm expecting another order for Webex tomorrow. Webex has huge customers because they were already there in the enterprise space. 

Zoom entered into the commercial space for end-users. It's more of a solution for single users for training classes or music centers and all that. Cisco is not in that space. Cisco is the enterprise space. We got an order for 50 licenses for city governments in India yesterday.

I only use WebEx to communicate with one of the managing directors, because that is his default meeting platform.

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.

We switched from Webex to Teams because there was a lag in the WebEx experience and also a lack of integration. Easy integration with a free email account like Microsoft or Google would be helpful.

We saw lag issues more often when we had multiple people connecting.

We never contacted Cisco support about the lag issues because we didn't have time for a follow-up. 

Setup is marginally convenient, and that made a difference for the organization.

The price of Webex was reasonable. 

I rate Webex seven out of 10. Regardless of whatever email integration you have, one-click calling is the easiest. Getting two things together isn't so hard from a business user's perspective. But when you're doing multiple things, that one extra thing becomes an annoyance you don't want to deal with, and you're hoping that an IT team set it up for you already.
