Webex Room for Improvement

Webex is a fine, perfectly adequate product, and I don't see any room for improvement.

From when I last implemented it, I found the price to be expensive. The licensing model doesn't work because if I want to implement it for an organization, I need to pay a per-user license, which makes it very restrictive.

They should probably reconsider the licensing model to be less restrictive and more adaptable for organizational use.

I would appreciate improvements in communication stability and performance. Sometimes we experience a poor communication stream, but I am uncertain whether it is due to the internet link or something else. The video and voice quality can be poor, though this does not happen constantly; it depends on certain individuals.

Webex has issues. If you use Zoom on Microsoft Team, Webex can look complicated since, at times, voice or audio is an area that may not be very clear. Problems start when a large number of users try to use the solution, but it starts to function better automatically when the count of the people involved in the product comes down, making it seem like a not-so-scalable tool. The scalability and voice quality attached to the solution are areas of concern where improvements are required.

The solution is not as user-friendly as other collaboration tools. The user interface is not easy to use. The navigation of the solution is different from other products. It is a challenge. Integrating the product is not as easy as other collaboration tools because specific APIs must be deployed for integration. The user experience must be improved. It will be helpful if the vendor provides better training manuals.

I think the tool should make it easier to receive reports related to areas like how many participants are there in a meeting, comments, and file transfers inside the app. It is not so easy to obtain information in areas like the number of participants, comments, and file transfers inside the application.

I don't like Webex. Some of the users of the companies I used to work for could only use the tool with certain clients who used only Webex, so even my company had no other way to deal with them. It wasn't a good experience for me using Webex because it stopped working all of a sudden, and I had to reinstall it. During the last month, my company switched to WebClient, and it seemed to fix the issues we were facing with Webex. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement in the solution.

The solution's local technical support needs improvement.

I have had issues with the frequent updates from Webex. From an improvement perspective, I would like to receive fewer updates from Webex.

Although we utilize it for team collaboration, it's not very efficient. Most people don't bother turning on their video during meetings. We feel stuck in the past, relying on outdated technology.

We had 20 people on a call, and whenever someone wanted to use the chat, they struggled to find the button. It was like a constant hunt for the chat feature, especially when you're presenting. It could feel quite desperate at times.

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.

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.

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.

The video requirement is kind of high. It requires a more stable network.

Everything just needs to be shrunk down without sacrificing quality so that not so much bandwidth is needed in order to hold meetings effectively.

An opportunity they could benefit from would be a version that includes meeting transcription. I usually use a third-party product to do transcription.

In terms of Screen share, it would be helpful to have more control over what is being presented on the screen. They may have that functionality, but I've never used it. For example, being able to click back to look at previous slides, even though the presenter has gone forward, or having some type of pointer mechanism that helps to call out different areas of the screen when presenting.

They may already have a function for this that I am not aware of, but I would like to see more whiteboarding capabilities. I would think of this in terms of post-it notes or other things where you can facilitate some interactive engagement. There are products like Miro and CloudBoard, as well as a slew of others of a similar nature. I believe Microsoft Teams has something similar built-in. But, given how much time people spend in online meetings, I believe there should be ways to engage or create more engagement with the participants.

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.

It would be great if they had a directory that you could consult for the meeting dial-in numbers.

The solution should come as a big client for the system. It should be able to be used just like chat software when necessary, similar to instant messaging.

Currently, the solution isn't really lacking in features.

For what we use it for, I can't think of anything the solution is lacking.

The initial implementation was a bit difficult. If they could simplify that aspect of the solution, it would be helpful for future users.

Sometimes the call quality is not that great. When you call in, especially in an international situation, or if you have people calling from different continents or geographical locations, there can be issues with the call itself.  

I would like to see improved chatting functionality. The chat boxes need to be more prominent. It would be nice if you could edit your chat, and easily add attachments into it, similar to Slack, to make it easier to share, sidebar, and communicate during calls. It's very important to add some sort of editing function into the chats. You want to be professional and fix any mistakes and not just leave them there.

There are too many issues with getting people connected to meetings.

Reliability and consistency need improvement.

I would like to see support for connecting with customers who don't have Webex installed and to improve the audio quality.

This solution would be much better if we could install an endpoint and have centralized management. This would allow me to subscribe, push an endpoint to the client, and then control these points.

I would like to see the inclusion of security agents, for example from McAfee or Symantec, which can scan the communication for threats. This would help avoid problems if a user has malware on their machine. Webex would also be able to scan for malicious files.

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.

I would like for them to include a collaboration tool so that you can directly do a video call or audio call to your colleagues or anyone in the office.

They should also introduce a collaboration tool to include the features of audio call and video call.

My company does a lot of international calls. For some countries they do not have their local number to call in, all they have is a 1-800 number which is quite hard to find. If they want to improve they should set up the local number to call in. What would be beneficial.

I think options during a meeting can be further improved. You should explore a lot to see the information in the room, for example.

The modification of the email template is not very intuitive.

Webex is mostly doing its job without any issues. The only thing it maybe needs is a chat. It is not very comfortable to use. Private and public messages is a good idea, but it is too easy to select the wrong option.

Though it is a nice app to work with, it has downsides, too. It is not very user-friendly. Sometimes users cannot use voice recognition to send a message. Sometimes messages will not send, icons sometimes will not load, and those things disappoint a user. They should work on solving these issues as soon as possible.

For the Training centre:

  1. When you use the whiteboard, you cannot MOVE the contributions of learners.
  2. To co-facilitate and have all the features, e.g., mute or unmute learners, assign permissions, etc. It seems to be difficult.
  3. Unmuting only certain learners, not the whole class, or muting all but not the facilitators seems to be troublesome.

CWMS on-premises solution does not integrate either with CMR nor with Jabber as of yet. There is no video integration with other Cisco endpoints such as DX80, DX650, or the new Cisco IP Phones 8845 or 8865 video phones. These are the areas where it could improve.

It's definitely not easy to learn or to teach. While the multitudes of functions are key selling points, the company didn't offer us any form of training for future employees, so it was up to us to train each other. Their customer service was also fairly sub-par as far as what I am used to. The only other major complaint that I have is that I have never hosted nor joined a webex, where no one had a problem downloading the necessary software or understanding how to connect. I think a few simple updates to their user experience could fix this. View full review »

1. Video conferencing is not as fast as expected. 2. I don’t think WebEx can support more than 1000 participants.WebEx is one of the leading online conference tools. It is a collaborative tool that combines video, data and voice. It bridges the gap between physical locations. We have multiple branches and we have found that bringing people together becomes almost impossible. Thiat is the major reason why we decided to use WebEx. WebEx supports both computers and mobile phones. This means both computer (PCs, tablets, Macs) users and mobile phone users can easily participate in the conference. It also has free applications for ipad and iPhones. One thing we enjoyed most was the toll-free facility. You can easily share the desktop screen or files. Presenters can show his audience what is on his screen. Changing of conference host is quite easy. View full review »
