Secure, and easy to use, but the joining process should be simplified
Pros and Cons
  • "It is user-friendly."
  • "I think it's very inconvenient to have to enter my email address all the time just to be a visitor."

What is our primary use case?

Webex is used for video communication and video calls.

What is most valuable?

I am satisfied with the performance of Webex.

The user interface is fine for me. It is user-friendly.

I don't have an issue with the security.

What needs improvement?

I think it's very inconvenient to have to enter my email address all the time just to be a visitor.

I didn't log in because I just attended a meeting that my manager scheduled for me and I had to retype my email address, and I believe that I should be able to click a button as a visitor. I shouldn't have to enter my email address again and again.

It should be easier to join a meeting.

For how long have I used the solution?

I started using Webex after I joined my company, and my company also uses Webex. I have been using it for one month.

Simple implementation, easy to use, but distracting operation noises
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature of Webex is ease to use."
  • "The GUI of Webex should be improved. The connectivity for putting people inside the meetings or entering meetings is to be improved."

What is our primary use case?

We are using Webex for meetings.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature of Webex is ease to use.

What needs improvement?

The GUI of Webex should be improved. The connectivity for putting people inside the meetings or entering meetings is to be improved. 

When you mute or unmute someone in Webex it causes a tone or a sound that can be distracting. For example, in Microsoft Teams when someone is muted or unmuted it is silent. When we have a meeting with 100 people the noises are too much. Webex needs to reduce the number of noises activated by using the solution.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Webex for approximately two years.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have approximately 100 people in m organization using this solution.

How are customer service and support?

I have not contacted the support from Webex.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have previously used Microsoft Teams and Zoom. 

Microsoft Teams and Zoom are better than Webex, I have not seen anything special features in Webex.

How was the initial setup?

The setup of Webex is simple.

What other advice do I have?

I have seen Webex improve over the past year. My most recent meeting using Webex was good. Before Webex was the worst meeting platform I used. Every time I went into a meeting, I hang up there for approximately 10 minutes sometimes till I was inside the meeting. Zoom or Microsoft Teams did not have this issue, I was quickly inside the meeting.

We mostly use Microsoft Teams in my organization. 

I rate Webex a seven out of ten.

What is most valuable?

What needs improvement?

Webex could improve by adding captions for the translation.

I have been using Webex for approximately five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Webex is a stable solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Webex is scalable, there are rooms that people can join.

We have approximately 2,000 users using this solution in my organization.

The technical support from Webex is good.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup of Webex is easy.

What about the implementation team?

User-friendly, great for virtual meetings and offers an easy setup
Pros and Cons
  • "In terms of stability, the solution is reliable."
  • "Everything just needs to be shrunk down without sacrificing quality so that not so much bandwidth is needed in order to hold meetings effectively."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the solution for virtual meetings. 

What is most valuable?

You can use the solution for free.

It's a great solution if you need to connect for a virtual meeting. 

The product is very easy to use. It's user-friendly. The overall simplicity of the solution is great.

Its audio is pretty good.

The solution scales well.

In terms of stability, the solution is reliable. 

The initial setup is very straightforward and the deployment is fast.

What needs improvement?

The video requirement is kind of high. It requires a more stable network. There should be something done to compress the video - to compress the video size, not the quality while still maintaining good quality. Everything just needs to be shrunk down without sacrificing quality so that not so much bandwidth is needed in order to hold meetings effectively.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is very stable. It's reliable. the performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution can scale well. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so.

We have about 30 people that use the solution. 

We do plans to increase the usage in the future. As we increase the number of staff, we will increase the number of licenses we buy.

How are customer service and support?

We haven't had any issues with technical support. We are satisfied with them overall. 

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We use Zoom and Microsoft Teams alongside Cisco Webex.

Mostly, we use Microsoft Teams, which we actually pay a licensing fee for. We tend to use WebEx if a meeting was set up under it and in those cases, we can use it for free. 

How was the initial setup?

We have found the initial setup to be very simple, very straightforward. The deployment is quick and only takes about 15 minutes or so. It's an easy process. It's not difficult. 

You only need one person to handle deployment or maintenance tasks. 

What about the implementation team?

I'm able to handle the setup myself. I did not need any outside help from any integrators or consultants. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We didn't pay for this license. We just use it to connect to specific meetings. It's just a free version that we leverage.

What other advice do I have?

It's a good product I'd rate it to others. 

I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

Easy to use virtual meeting platform with a straightforward installation, but needs improvement performance-wise
Pros and Cons
  • "Easy to use virtual meeting solution. Installation was straightforward without the need for a technical team."
  • "Performance of this platform needs improvement. There was a stability issue, particularly glitches that kept it from running smoothly."

What is our primary use case?

We use Webex for virtual meetings.

We are using Microsoft Teams for the whole organization, e.g. everybody uses Teams, but we have a Webex license because we are running a Cisco Telephony solution.

We decided to integrate Cisco telephony with Webex, particularly for our meetings in the boardroom, so we bought Webex licenses so that if we wanted to connect from our boardroom, we can use Webex.

What is most valuable?

What we like about Webex is that it's easy to use, and it's easy to set meetings and connect to meetings on this solution.

What needs improvement?

This platform has a lot of performance problems and challenges, particularly with the connection. Connecting is as easy as clicking on a link, but if you connect with so many people, Webex doesn't perform well. It doesn't run smoothly. It requires stable internet connection.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Webex since the beginning of the COVID pandemic, so almost two years now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Webex is not as stable, especially when compared to Microsoft Teams. Webex can have a lot of glitches, and does not run as smoothly as Teams.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Webex is a scalable solution.

How was the initial setup?

The installation of Webex was straightforward. It's a web-based solution, so you just have to log in to the Webex site, then you connect. You can do the installation yourself, without the need for a technical team.

What about the implementation team?

I installed the tool myself. There was no need for a technical team.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I'm on a yearly subscription of Webex.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated Microsoft Teams.

What other advice do I have?

Webex is on a cloud deployment model.

We don't have many users of this tool in our company. We have less than 10 users of it, and we don't intend to increase the number of users, because we are using Microsoft Teams more. We only use Webex when we want to integrate with our Cisco telephone solution from the boardroom.

I was able to log a case with a Cisco tech before, and he was responsive, e.g. within 24 hours for my Cisco devices, but not necessarily for Webex.

I'm giving Webex a score of seven out of ten.

Comfortable, simple to use, and simple to set up
Pros and Cons
  • "Its features are easy to navigate and easy to share, and easy to conduct a meeting."
  • "I would like to see more integration, with respect to some more unified communication activities."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use Webex to connect for meeting purposes.

What is most valuable?

Its features are easy to navigate, easy to share, and easy to conduct meetings.

We are comfortable using it. 

Webex is easy to use.

What needs improvement?

Integration with other systems, as well as customization, may be beneficial within the context of the specific work set.

I would like to see more integration, with respect to some more unified communication activities.

For how long have I used the solution?

In my professional experience, I have been using Webex for almost eight or nine years.

I currently work with the most recent update.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Overall, my impression of the stability is good.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Webex is a scalable product.

In our company, we have more than one hundred users.

Webex is used on a daily basis rather than on a regular basis.

How are customer service and support?

We have not contacted technical support. We have not had any issues.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I am working in research and consulting sales. The majority of the products I use are from Microsoft, such as Excel.

We do use Skype, as well as VMware for virtual connections.

The main difference in using Skype is that it's all integrated with all of your Microsoft Teams and Microsoft applications. That's a significant distinction. I believe Webex is also integrated to some extent, but I believe Skype is more easily integrated with Teams.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward. It is not a complex process.

The setup does not take a lot of time and the installation is less.

It doesn't require a lot of maintenance, I believe, that everything is, already accompanying it.

What about the implementation team?

We finished the deployment in-house; everything was done within the company.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I am not aware of the pricing details.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend this solution to others who are thinking about using it because the navigation and setup are simple.

I would rate Webex an eight out of ten.

Multifeatured virtual meeting and video communication software; runs smoothly and does not cause lag
Pros and Cons
  • "Lag-free video communication and virtual meeting software which runs smoothly."
  • "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."

What is our primary use case?

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

What is most valuable?

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.

What needs improvement?

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

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

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

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

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

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.

How are customer service and support?

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.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We pay a yearly license for Webex.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I evaluated Microsoft Teams.

What other advice do I have?

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.
