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.

Offers a straightforward initial setup phase but needs to reduce the frequency of updates
Pros and Cons
  • "The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
  • "I have had issues with the frequent updates from Webex."

What is most valuable?

The product users, one in particular, liked the tool when it worked. My company managed to switch most of the users to Zoom, which worked flawlessly.

What needs improvement?

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have five years of experience with Webex.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I don't know how to specifically rate the product's stability since it was a solution that used to function properly when it worked. I can rate the tool's stability an eight out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is a scalable solution since it is available in the cloud.

When I left my previous company, I saw that there were only five licenses, and the organization had started off with around 50 users.

How are customer service and support?

I have received the solution's local technical support but not from Cisco, and I felt it was very slow and not knowledgeable. I am sure that Cisco's direct support is great.

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

I am mainly using Zoom. Zoom is easier to use than Webex, and it also seems to be faster in the beginning phases.

How was the initial setup?

The product's initial setup phase was very easy. The management console is easy to use.

The deployment part is not hard as the product is on the web.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

The solution can be deployed in a few hours.

What other advice do I have?

I don't know how the product was useful in improving the work associated with remote workforce, but I know that my company used it for meetings.

The video quality offered by the product is perfect and has no issues.

I recommend that others go ahead and use the product.

I never tried to integrate Webex with other tools.

I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

Has outdated technology and chat button is difficult to find
Pros and Cons
  • "The transcripts from Webex calls get delivered to the inbox five minutes after the call. However, out of 20 people on a call, maybe only one person bothers to read through the entire transcript, which can be lengthy for an hour-long call."
  • "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."

What is most valuable?

The transcripts from Webex calls get delivered to the inbox five minutes after the call. However, out of 20 people on a call, maybe only one person bothers to read through the entire transcript, which can be lengthy for an hour-long call.

What needs improvement?

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.

What other advice do I have?

I haven't used Webex's file-sharing and messaging features much. Our work involves sensitive information, so we rely on other platforms for file sharing. However, Teams is an exception, where we occasionally share files and information, mainly through the chat function. I rate the overall product a two out of ten.

Improves our team's collaboration and offers good video quality during remote meetings
Pros and Cons
  • "The chat and meeting scheduling features in Webex are most valuable for our team's productivity."
  • "There is room for improvement in the chat history and search functionality in Webex, making it easier to find past conversations and commands by keywords."

How has it helped my organization?

Webex greatly improves our team's collaboration by being our main communication tool and meeting platform, helping us work effectively regardless of location.

What is most valuable?

The chat and meeting scheduling features in Webex are most valuable for our team's productivity. The video quality during remote meetings is quite good, enhancing our communication and collaboration.

What needs improvement?

There is room for improvement in the chat history and search functionality in Webex, making it easier to find past conversations and commands by keywords.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Webex for about three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the stability of Webex as a ten out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Around 1,000 users in our company use Webex. I find it easy to scale since we have been able to scale it smoothly as our usage increases.

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

I prefer Teams over Webex because it integrates better with the other tools we use. In terms of features and functionalities, they are similar, as far as I know.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate the Webex user interface and ease of use at around seven out of ten in terms of complexity.

Overall, I would rate Webex as an eight out of ten. It is a great product.

Helps to save time by conducting meetings in a hybrid setup
Pros and Cons
  • "The tool simplifies our work by allowing us to have hybrid meetings instead of always meeting in person, which saves time in organizing these meetings. It also offers good video quality."
  • "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."

What is our primary use case?

We use the tool for internal and client meetings, webinars, and presentations. 

What is most valuable?

The tool simplifies our work by allowing us to have hybrid meetings instead of always meeting in person, which saves time in organizing these meetings. It also offers good video quality.

Webex helps to prevent unwanted guests from popping up in your meeting. 
The video quality is fine, and I wouldn't expect it to be better. I'm not sure about the computing resources required to optimize the video delivery, though.

On Webex, I find the option to capture the talking points of each participant valuable. Also, features like adding emojis during live presentations help in getting live feedback from participants.

The security features are quite robust because they allow you only to permit entry from participants authorized by the organizer.

What needs improvement?

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the product for a few years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Webex is stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool is scalable since it can support big audiences. My company has 30 users, but I've worked in previous corporations where we had tens of thousands of users.

How was the initial setup?

The tool's deployment is complex compared to other platforms. It needs to be more user-friendly in this area. It took about 10-15 minutes to complete. 

What about the implementation team?

As a user, the corporation may need an integrator to configure the setup.

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

The tool's licensing is expensive, but it should be cheaper. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

Is user-friendly and offers good security features
Pros and Cons
  • "The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
  • "All the features are not enabled in the web mode of the product."

What is our primary use case?

I use the solution in my company for internal meetings, technical discussions, and knowledge transfer sessions.

What is most valuable?

The product offers a whiteboard feature, which you can use in meetings to provide explanations. Even in a remote place, if my company is showing someone a complex web application, we can just point out the exact options in the menu bar from our side. If you are sharing the screen and you are unable to find a particular menu from our company's side, we can just use a marker and tick it to tell them the spot they need to check. The tool's support features are very beneficial to customers.

What needs improvement?

All the features are not enabled in the web mode of the product. From an improvement perspective, all the features need to be enabled in the web mode instead of asking users to install the application.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Webex for three to four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The company did not experience any lags in terms of the product's stability and performance. Stability-wise, I rate the solution between eight and nine out of ten.

To be able to use some of the features provided by the product, a user gets forced to install the application. If you are a host of a meeting and you send me an invite to attend it, after which, if I join it via the web, I would be unable to use many of the product's features, like the sharing of screens. I am forced to install the application to use the features of the product. The entire feature set of the tool is not available in the web mode.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Around 20 people in my company use the product. The product is mostly used by technical people who need to present something in meetings and the other top management personnel who conduct meetings with internal and external stakeholders. Only the host or presenter of the meeting would have the tool's account.

How was the initial setup?

The product's initial setup phase was straightforward.

The solution can be deployed in a few minutes.

What other advice do I have?

It is a user-friendly tool. Even if you share the link to a meeting with Webex with some ex-users of the tool, it is still easy for them to join the meeting via its website without having to install the application.

The product has helped simplify the area of remote work in my company.

For team collaboration, the product provides a good experience for our company.

The video, sound, and conferencing quality offered by the product are good.

At my company, we have a touchpad set up in our boardroom, so connecting to meetings via Webex is easy.

From a technical perspective, I recommend the product to others. From a cost-based perspective, I am not sure if I would recommend the product to others since I don't know whether Teams, Zoom, or Webex are low-price options.

With the features of the product that I have used so far, I can say that the integration capabilities of the tool are good.

The product's security features are good.

I rate the tool an eight to nine out of ten.

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

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.
