I use the solution to attend online meetings, which are held with my company's clients. Webex is a platform where most of the clients like to have meetings. Though Webex is more complicated than Microsoft Teams, it is much more useful and easy to pin Webex's screens and content.

851,604 professionals have used our research since 2012.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a quite stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is an easily scalable solution. It is also easy to use its sharing capabilities during meetings. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.
Around 50 to 60 people use the product.
The product is used once in a while and not on a daily basis. If there is a requirement for virtual meetings, then we use it for that moment.
Whether my company plans to increase the use of the product or not is something that depends on our requirements. The product is only used for virtual meetings, and otherwise, our company doesn't use it much. The product was of great use when the world was struck by COVID-19, but after the pandemic, the tool is not much used.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Earlier, it was easy to set up meetings using Webex. Nowadays, it is hard to set up meetings using Webex since it has become a complicated process. The platform should be easier for not only to arrange but also for others to join meetings. In general, the tool's setup process could be made a bit easier.
How was the initial setup?
I rate the product's initial setup phase a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup, and ten is an easy setup process.
Regarding the product's deployment phase, the tool already has a portal. You need to just download and run the setup, after which you need to click on the next steps and the agreement form. After the aforementioned steps are followed, the tool gets installed.
The solution can be deployed in ten minutes.
What other advice do I have?
I have used the tool only for the meetings, not for the webinars and large-scale virtual meetings.
I rate Webex's video quality and connectivity compared to other solutions as four to four and a half out of five.
Webex's security features have impacted our company's communication since it verifies the users before letting them into meetings. The tool is good for enterprise-level companies. It adds a layer of security to the platform used for meetings, but on the other hand, I feel that for short meetings, there is no need for the solution to add a high level of security. It is good to have a proper and secure platform like Webex for meetings. If I rate its security, then I will give it a four point three stars out of five.
I rate the tool a nine out of ten.
Disclosure: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions.

Head of IT at Synnapex
Simple to integrate, helpful support, and high availability
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable feature of Webex is if you are using the Cisco hardware it is simple to integrate. Additionally, it can integrate well with mobile devices."
- "Webex could improve the calling feature. It would be helpful to be able to call outside the IP environment."
What is our primary use case?
I use this solution for chatting, scheduling, and meetings.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of Webex is if you are using the Cisco hardware it is simple to integrate. Additionally, it can integrate well with mobile devices.
What needs improvement?
Webex could improve the calling feature. It would be helpful to be able to call outside the IP environment.

I have been using Webex for approximately one year and a half.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
This is the most stable solution I have used.
How are customer service and support?
I rate the support from Webex a nine out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have previously used other solutions, such as Teams and Zoom and I have had issues with conductivity requiring me to reload. I have not had any issues with Webex.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The price of Webex is in the middle range compared to the market.
What other advice do I have?
Inside Webex, there exists a feature known as "At Hub." This feature is accompanied by a new browser that offers an array of impressive features and gadgets. Moreover, it enables you to incorporate these elements into your own website. I highly recommend giving it a try and utilizing the app assistance available to explore the extensive range of excellent products within the Webex hub. You're bound to be pleasantly surprised by what awaits you there.
Many customers are already utilizing Cisco phones, which offers a significant advantage. By using a Cisco phone, they can effortlessly join Webex meetings or video conferences through their designated video test or conference endpoint. However, it's important to note that this capability is also available with other platforms like Zoom and similar services.
I rate Webex a nine out of ten.

I also like that the platform is user-friendly, so anyone using the tool for the first time won't find any difficulties when logging in or accessing it.
What needs improvement?
Currently, I'm unable to find any loophole in Webex, but in terms of areas for improvement, it would be better if a user is informed about any new updates or new features added to the tool.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using Webex since 2015. I used it initially in my previous company until 2020, then I joined my current company, and the tool is still being used here.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Webex is a stable tool.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Webex is a scalable tool.
How are customer service and support?
It's our IT team who contacts the Webex technical support team and we're getting good support from our IT team, so this directly implies that Webex offers good technical support.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
Webex is very easy to set up, and any person can use it, as it has a user-friendly interface.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I don't have information on Webex pricing because I'm just a user, and I wasn't involved in purchasing the product, but from 2015 to 2020, in my previous company, I used the paid version of the tool, but today, in my current company, it's the free version of Webex that's being used.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I evaluated Teams and Skype apart from Webex.
What other advice do I have?
Webex is deployed on the private cloud and my company uses it to connect with people remotely, whether it's a company employee, a training provider, or a third party such as a customer.
Approximately five hundred people use the tool in my company.
The advice I would give to others looking to start using WebEx is to go for it because it is a versatile tool that connects you with another person easily, remotely. It's also a very user-friendly tool and there's no issue in terms of setting up and accessing WebEx, so overall, I can tell people to go ahead and buy it.
My rating for Webex is eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Private Cloud

Deputy Manager - IT at Nidec Corporation
Offers good integration capabilities but needs to improve the scalability features offered
Pros and Cons
- "The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
- "The scalability and voice quality attached to the solution are areas of concern where improvements are required."
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable feature stems from its ability to help us connect to meetings, specifically team meetings, where we can discuss issues related to our company.
What needs improvement?
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.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Webex for ten years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a stable solution.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is not a scalable solution.
Most of the users of the tool in my company are hosts, while there can be many attendees in a meeting. The host submits a single link for all to join a meeting. A host can also add a co-host to the meeting.
Around 100 people in my company use the product.
The product is not used on a regular basis.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Nowadays, my company prefers to use Microsoft Teams over Webex, especially if there are only 10 to 25 people needed in a meeting.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase was straightforward. During the setup phase, even a mobile app was available.
The solution can be deployed on the cloud.
The solution can be deployed in around five minutes.
What about the implementation team?
The solution was deployed with the help of our company's in-house team since we had only to download it from the product's website.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
To host meetings with the product's help, you must pay the annual subscription licensing fees attached to the solution. The charges attached to the subscriptions of the product are okay. There are no extra charges to be paid in addition to the standard licensing fees.
What other advice do I have?
Speaking about the use of Webex in our company's day-to-day business operations, I would say that we primarily use Webex's interface for video, but the audio part is used separately with audio devices. A separate device needs to be used so that our company can connect to the audio part of the solution while the video part can be used in Webex's application. The audio and video are separately connected when using the product so that the audio issues attached to Webex can be eliminated.
Speaking about how the product has simplified remote work in our company, I would say that we use Webex to connect to meetings and for training. The tool is also useful for making announcements, especially if there are any issues faced by our remote workforce since it allows us to access their devices remotely.
The video quality of the product is okay, in my opinion.
The product's security features are good.
Webex is available on the mobile app, so you just can create and attend meetings through the solution's application.
I won't recommend the product to those who plan to use it.
The integration capabilities of the product are good.
I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

Senior Network Associate at AMCON, Inc.
Offers a straightforward initial setup phase
Pros and Cons
- "The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward."
- "The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
What is our primary use case?
In our company, we had to increase the usage of Webex after we found out that when we were using Cisco's teleconference software, external users could not join meetings. When I create a meeting in Webex, my company can hold meetings and use teleconference software.
What needs improvement?
From an improvement perspective, Webex should be able to have recording features.
From an improvement perspective, it should be possible to integrate Webex with other platforms.
The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have experience with Webex for years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a very stable solution. I rate the solution's stability a six out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is an easily scalable solution.
I don't know how many people in my company use the product. I conduct most of the meetings with the help of the tool for around 50 to 100 users. I also need to consider how some people prefer Zoom while others prefer Webex.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward.
The solution is deployed on the cloud.
The solution can be deployed once a user downloads, installs, takes care of the setup of a meeting, and then arranges for a device to attend it.
The solution can be deployed in less than ten minutes.
What about the implementation team?
The product can be deployed with the help of the company's in-house team.
What was our ROI?
The product is worth the investment since it helps our company to hold meetings and other business-related sessions for people to attend. In my opinion, the ROI of the product is fine.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
There is a need to buy a subscription-based license to use the product. You need to make yearly payments towards the licensing charges of the product. You need to opt for a subscription-based licensing model for your organization. The product is a bit expensive.
What other advice do I have?
In our company's day-to-day business operation, we use Webex to hold our internal meetings and for those who want to join certain meetings remotely. The tool is connected to two offices, the head office and a branch. The teleconference software part of Webex allows external users who need to join a meeting. Sometimes, Zoom or Microsoft Teams can be used as alternatives if there are some stability issues with Webex. One can switch between the options.
Webex has simplified remote work in our company the same way Zoom has helped us. Webex has helped with the meeting part, specifically virtual meetings. It has helped ease business. I also have to ensure that our staff or external execs join Webex sessions without any issues.
Speaking about the most valuable aspect of the product for team collaboration, I find the whiteboards and control or the ability to share, especially when troubleshooting with a remote user, useful. Webex allows its users to easily share screens with other users, so users can look at the screen to see what the other person or user is doing.
I have not tried the integration of Webex with Zoom. If people from Zoom and Webex can join a meeting together there would be a lesser need to set up for a meeting. Anybody with Webex or Microsoft Teams can still join the same meeting that has been set up on Zoom. The ability to join a meeting should not depend on which application one uses.
The video quality of the product is good. There has been a lot of improvement in the tool's video quality.
I think the tool has security features because most of the calls on it are encrypted, so you can be sure that nobody is trying to listen or eavesdrop on the different sessions you have on the product. Depending on how a host o has set up the meeting, others can join and connect easily. When you closely look at the sessions in the tool, I think the tool has improved, and everything seems fine.
I suggest others start using the product since they can see added features in the product over a period of time. I recommended the product to those who plan to use it.
I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Support Engineer at Salesforce
The appointment scheduler offers great compatibility with the tools under the same brand
Pros and Cons
- "Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
- "The accessibility of the share screen option provided by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of the solution is the appointment scheduler that sends messages and communicates the meeting time to the parties involved in the meeting. Webex's share control feature is also good.
What needs improvement?
The accessibility of the share screen option provided by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Webex for the past nine months. I am a user of the product.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
There are 15,000 to 25,000 uses of the product in my company.
Webex is used once a week in my company. Most of our company's customers prefer Google Meet or Microsoft Teams.
How are customer service and support?
I hardly have experience with the solution's technical support. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
My company has experience with other solutions, but we switched to Webex since it provides an appointment scheduler compatible with Cisco solutions.
How was the initial setup?
I rate the product's setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one means it is a difficult process and ten means it is an easy process.
The solution is deployed on the cloud.
What about the implementation team?
I was involved in the deployment of the product in my company.
What other advice do I have?
Our company prefers to use IBM Video Streaming and Zoom to handle large-scale virtual events or webinars. For large-scale events, I do not use Webex.
For daily team collaboration in my company, we don't use Webex since we have a product named Slack.
I cannot comment on the video quality offered by the product since I am not very aware of it.
The unique integrations offered by the product include the appointment scheduler. The appointment scheduler is a good option because it schedules meetings. The tool also integrates with the CASE command and updates the calendar and Salesforce tool. The integration with the calendar looks fine.
I rate the ability of the product's security and privacy features to meet our organization's requirements as a ten out of ten.
I recommend the product to those who want a product that could help them with their communication and collaboration needs.
I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.
Disclosure: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions.
Engineering and Technical Standing at State grid Brazil Holding
Helpful to hold meetings and to improve workflow
Pros and Cons
- "I never had any issues with the stability of the product. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
- "It is not so easy to obtain information in areas like the number of participants, comments, and file transfers inside the application."
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution in my company only if there is a meeting, so I don't have much knowledge about it even though I am a user.
What needs improvement?
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.
Making a recording and downloading it is not so easy on Webex.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have four years of experience with Webex.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I never had any issues with the stability of the product. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I believe that everyone in my company uses the product. There are more than 500 people in my organization using Webex.
The product is used once a week in my company.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have current experience with Microsoft Teams. I have used Zoom, Skype, and Google Meet.
After finishing a meeting, whenever my company tries to get certain recordings, Zoom or Skype provides it during the first 30 days after a meeting. With Webex, my company has to request the IT team to download and send the recordings of the meeting, making it a not-so-easy process.
How was the initial setup?
I rate the product's initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one means it is a difficult process and ten means it is an easy process.
Honestly, the employees in my company cannot download Webex, as the administrators manage it. I don't know about the time required to deploy the product.
What other advice do I have?
The product was helpful in improving workflow in my company, especially during the pandemic period, for reasons like recording training and showing some evidence of work.
In my opinion, the current appearance of the product is nice. There is no need for any change to be made in the appearance of the tool. I think that the present appearance of the product makes it easy for the people in our company to see what they want.
The product is very good. I understand the internal rules associated with the company's end in relation to Webex. Some of my colleagues have a personal room, and for them, it is easy to get reports, record meetings, and get downloads.
I recommended the product to others who plan to use it.
In my company, there is a need to use software for meetings. I think that Webex's competitors offer better tools.
I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.
Disclosure: I am a real user, and this review is based on my own experience and opinions.
Instructor at Bulacan State University
Comes with good security features but not as user-friendly as Zoom
Pros and Cons
- "During Cisco training sessions, I found Webex effective in improving productivity. I benefited from the training. However, I can't speak for others using Webex for daily work or jobs."
- "I think Webex could be improved by simplifying the process. For instance, they could make it easier to join meetings by providing a direct meeting link without requiring sign-ups or logins. While security is important, finding a balance with user-friendliness is key."
What needs improvement?
I think Webex could be improved by simplifying the process. For instance, they could make it easier to join meetings by providing a direct meeting link without requiring sign-ups or logins. While security is important, finding a balance with user-friendliness is key.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've used Webex for about two or three years, mainly for Cisco training sessions. After that, I haven't used Webex much. However, I've been using Zoom more recently for my online classes with students.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution's stability depends on the company.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I would rate the tool's scalability a five out of ten. It might be more scalable for larger companies with specific needs. My company had ten users as part of the training.
How are customer service and support?
I haven't contacted the tool's technical support yet.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Webex can be complicated compared to Zoom, especially regarding security settings. With Zoom, users need a meeting ID and password to join, making it more straightforward. While both platforms offer secure connections, Webex may feel more rigid and less user-friendly, especially for non-technical users. However, Webex has been updated recently so that improvements may have been made.
How was the initial setup?
Setting up the tool on my computer wasn't too difficult, but it wasn't as straightforward as Zoom. I had to install the Webex application and navigate through the interface, which felt a bit more complex, especially for business settings.
What other advice do I have?
During Cisco training sessions, I found Webex effective in improving productivity. I benefited from the training. However, I can't speak for others using Webex for daily work or jobs.
The Webex security features are good because you must log in before joining a meeting. However, it's a bit less convenient than Zoom, where you need a link to join.
I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises
