Easy setup and an a la carte pricing model
The solution needs a more modern interface. One of our biggest complaints is that we don't have the ability to dynamically push our interface to participants. Adobe Connect is an older technology, but it allows us to push our own layout and design to participants. One of the solution's strengths is that it's web-only but that is also a weakness. It is not a software solution but is browser-based which has its advantages and disadvantages. Zoom has become such a force that its ease of use surpasses ON24.

Collaborating in hybrid incident calls has become faster while the meeting interface still needs fixes
The best features are the ability to schedule meetings and launch ad hoc meetings. Additionally, we can create breakout rooms within the meeting itself, which is another excellent feature. Whenever we have production issues, many teams join a single Webex call. Sometimes we need to group together as separate smaller groups and work in parallel to identify the production issues. In those cases, we create Webex breakout rooms and each member joins the corresponding breakout session to progress on their task. Webex helps significantly in the hybrid environment. When we are working from home, it is very easy for us to meet with other team members and the management to get in touch and progress. Webex improves communication because even if we are working from home, we can connect with people and talk to them on a video call. It has improved the incident resolution time by getting into a call in Webex rooms and remediating the issues together as soon as possible. Audio and video quality is excellent for Webex. It has saved considerable time in terms of incident remediation. Whenever we have issues, we jump on a call and work together in parallel. This approach saves time and improves efficiency.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution works well with third-party integrations."
"Friendly user interface and simple navigation."
"In general, the solution provides a good experience, the user interface is friendly and from the user perspective, navigation was simple."
"The stability of the solution is the most important feature."
"In the time that we've been using Webex, we haven't seen any jerking or lag in the remote sessions, and the performance is smooth compared to other third-party applications."
"What we like about Webex is that it is a hosted solution, so there is no demand for us to invest in hardware, skill, or manpower to maintain our cloud meeting capability."
"The GUI is nice and easy to operate."
"We have received a return on investment."
"The installation is not difficult."
"Webex is a thin client and we like the interface. It is easy to use."
"It is very powerful and stable."
 

Cons

"Bandwidth optimization could be increased."
"The solution needs a more modern interface."
"One thing that could be improved is that there is a 5,000 person limit."
"Webex support is not good and I can really only give them one star for support."
"Their customer service was also fairly sub-par as far as what I am used to."
"We no longer use Webex because we found Microsoft Teams to be more stable."
"The product's price could be better."
"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."
"The accessibility of the share screen option provided by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Webex's stability could be improved."
"They should integrate the solution with multiple hardware vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid $1,800 for five webinars, which is the standard fee. If you require support there is a $300 additional fee, extra attendees is an additional fee, integration is an additional fee, etc. All these extras could add on another $2,500 which was not in our budget."
"Price is the one area where Webex needs to improve relative to its competitors. It's difficult to sell to small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) because of the license price."
"There is an annual license required for this solution."
"Features matter more than the price for us. As long as we get all the features we want and it fits our budget, then the price doesn't matter. I can't speak for other companies. We have tried other applications, and we run into some problems that we don't see in Webex."
"There is a need to pay the licensing charges to use Webex Enterprise Edition."
"Webex is a cheaply priced tool."
"The pricing of this solution is fine and I am satisfied with it."
"We purchase the product's yearly license. It is expensive."
"This is an expensive product compared to Teams and it should be cheaper."
