Webex Reviews

We are using the latest version for Mac.

We primarily use the solution for meetings with coworkers. 

When the solution is used comprehensively, the hardware and camera features combine to make it better than all others I have encountered. This is because the camera moves in tandem with the person who is using it to communicate with the other participants. 

This is one of the solution's best features. I have not encountered such features with Zoom, which are essentially involve one-on-one meetings. Webex has the hardware to allow for this. 

The price should be improved significantly. The software, licenses and hardware combine to make the solution extremely expensive. 

The interconnectivity of all of the solution's facilities and functions can be more complex than that which is involved in basic configuration, when equipment, telephone extensions or other mobile apps are thrown into the mix. 

To be sure, the solution is stable. 

The solution is certainly scalable. A feature we were lacking in Mexico involved the capability to interconnect with the local telephone companies. We are talking about the prospect of increasing the usage. During this year and last, we increased the use of any kind of non-contact communication using Webex or Zoom, the latter being preferred by some our customers who have Zoom implemented it in their companies - the reason we utilize it. However, for internal use, we exclusively utilize Webex. 

We receive good technical support from Cisco. 

We have been using Webex since I first entered the company in 2012 or 2013, as the company places a premium on fiscal solutions. It is for this reason that it adopted this technology from the outset. 

The solution combines its hardware and camera features to give it a superior edge over all others, with the camera moving in pace with the person who is communicating with other participants. I consider this to be the solution's most valuable feature and have not encountered it with Zoom, which is basically geared towards one-on-one meetings. 

The difficulty involved in the initial setup can vary. The solution is easy to configure for basic use, such as one-on-one meetings or those involving multiple parties. It is more difficult to interconnect all the facilities and functions when one adds equipment and telephone extensions or other mobile apps. 

While I do not recall how long the deployment took, the configuration of all of the functions lasted two or three days. However, there is a need to be certified by Cisco, Webex and IP telephony for this solution. 

When it comes to the deployment and maintenance, there are a couple field agents who are responsible for this. 

I cannot say for certain whether we have seen an ROI, return on our investment. 

I find the solution to be very expensive. The software, licensing and hardware add up significantly. 

I do not have the licensing figures offhand, but the prices vary with the features one wishes to add to the license. There exists the option of a free license for one-on-one or one-on-two video calls, but adding more people requires one to upgrade his license. 

The licensing fees vary with the features one utilizes, web or call conferencing incurring a basic licensing fee. An upgraded license is required if one wishes to add a mobile app or conference. There is, yet, a separate license for integrating one's computer, cell, office or desk phone. We are talking about a sort of unit for each of the features, different licensing fees applying for those which are basic, intermediate and complete. I believe these range from $120-$130 up to $700. 

I feel the solution to be very complete. 

I am a Webex customer. 

While there are 20 to 25 people making use of the solution in our organization, we also use it with another company of ours which has implemented it and this places the number in the company at around 25 to 30 people. 

Each person has a different role and is dispersed in a disparate location in the north and center of Mexico. 

I would consider the move from on-premises to cloud-based implementation to be a positive step. This makes the solution a good instrument in such countries as the United States, the UK and Germany, where there is much integration with the local cell or telephone companies. We are talking about a good investment, as it allows one to integrate his office or home phones with the solution. 

I rate Webex as a nine out of ten. 

We use the solution for multiple purposes, including collaborative meetings and online education through web events, seminars, practical sessions, and lab sessions.

The solution provides a secure environment for meetings. Along with this, its feature for conducting exams works the best. In addition, it helps the instructor to monitor student engagement during online educational sessions.

They should integrate the solution with multiple hardware vendors.

I have been using the solution for more than ten years.

It is a stable solution. I rate its stability ten out of ten.

It is a scalable solution. I rate its scalability ten out of ten.

Technical support is optional for the solution as it is never out of connectivity or has latency issues.

I have used Zoom and Microsoft Teams before. In comparison, Webex provides additional features and a standard license policy.

The solution's initial setup process is straightforward. 

The solution is low-cost for a hybrid model.

It is a unique solution. I rate it ten out of ten.

I use this tool to communicate with my team. I have a developer team, so I use this tool to communicate with them. We use both the chat and the video conferencing system on our computers.

The noise cancellation feature is great. When you have a call, the noise cancellation during it is really good. It's the best one if you're looking for that specific feature. We haven't tried Zoom, however, compared to Microsoft Teams, WebEx is a lot better.

The initial setup is really easy.

The solution has been very stable. 

The scalability is quite good.

If you decide to use the paid version, you can have the scheduler and the meeting portal all on the same platform. 

The main issue is the performance in relation to the operating system. The base application uses a lot of resources. They could work on the performance of the application so that it's less heavy.

There are sometimes a lot of updates, however, we find the solution to be very stable right now. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

You can scale the solution if you need to. It's not a problem.

Right now, we have ten users that are connected to the solution. 

Our team is using it all the time. Everyone on the team works remotely; it's our main engagement channel.

As we grow our company, we'll likely increase usage. 

As I am leveraging the free version, I haven't used the support.

I also use Microsoft Teams. I use both right now. 

We used Microsoft Teams, however, we changed to WebEx as the main channel due to the noise cancellation that wasn't good enough on Teams. Also, Microsoft Teams used a lot of resources on the operating system - so much so that the computer started to go slow when we used the application.

I simply downloaded the solution from Cisco's web page. 

The implementation is really easy. The difficult part is understanding the free version from the other plan that has a cost. At the first, they didn't have an online purchase of that version, so you have to contact a partner in order to buy the install. It's a bit confusing between both versions, the free and the paid version.

The solution does not require any maintenance. 

I use the free version of the solution. I don't pay for licensing at this time. 

We did try Zoom, however, you could only use it for 40 minutes, and that wasn't enough time for us.

I'm just a customer and an end-user. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. I'd recommend it to others. It's a good tool. 

My primary use case of Webex is for virtual meetings. 

It's a nice tool for virtual meetings and I'm satisfied with its performance. 

This service could be improved by implementing integration with Microsoft platforms. If you are on a call with Webex, you can get a call from Teams or Skype for Business without receiving any indication. 

I have used this solution a couple of times, mostly when I get a conference call invitation from other companies that use Webex. 

Installation was straightforward. From a call invitation, you receive a link and can install it directly from the web. 

I implemented myself. You don't need a technical team for deployment or maintenance. 

I have also used Zoom, Skype for Business, and Teams. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. It is a nice tool, but I rarely use it because I only hold meetings over Webex when another company initiates the conference call with this software. 

I use Webex for Internet meetings.

The most valuable feature is Webex's user-friendly video conferencing.

One area that could use improvement in Webex is the connection speed. There are times when the platform feels a bit slow, which impacts the overall experience.

I have been using Webex for a few months.

The stability is average.

It is not very scalable. We have approximately 100 users at our company.

The initial setup is simple and I did it myself.

Overall, I would rate Webex as a six out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for virtual meetings. My company is using the Cisco WebEx for most of their meetings.

It's very easy to access. 

It's straightforward to use and navigate around. 

We can do the global meeting with this solution.

Once you have an account, you can always set up meetings with people via Outlook. It's very simple. If you need to, you can just simply share the link with the people.

Users can connect from anywhere. If they have internet access or they have a phone, they can join a meeting.

Sometimes we've had issues with the connection.

We've been using the solution since that pandemic started. We've used it for a few years now.

The stability is pretty good. We had a multi-meeting, multi-location connected meeting, and it worked pretty well. We needed help from our IT team to set it up, however, once it has started, it worked well. It didn't crash or freeze. There weren't glitches.

The solution can scale well and we haven't faced any limitations. We've had a global meeting without issue, for example. 

Our entire organization uses the solution. There are thousands of employees.

We normally deal with our own IT team and not outside technical support. Therefore, I cannot speak to how helpful or responsive they are.

The initial setup is very straightforward. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

I can't speak to the cost. I don't handle the billing aspects of the solution.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten. It offers a good connection and is easy to use, however, sometimes we see there's a connectivity issue.

I am using Webex mainly to speak to my manager.

I have found a lot of virtual meeting solutions seem the same. Some might work a little bit better, it is difficult to pinpoint a particular functionality that's widely different, they all have screen sharing and video in-voice.

I do not like emojis. 

I have been using Webex for a while, within the past 12 months.

We have approximately 1,000 employees in Canada that could have used Webex at one time or another.

I have not used technical support.

The setup is straightforward in most cases.

Virtual meeting solutions are not perfect while working remotely. The quality of the service depends on many factors, such as the connection I am using or the servers. Occasionally it's not always clear or perfect. It's not Webex in particular or this solution causing the issue.

I rate Webex an eight out of ten.

I would give most of the virtual meetings solutions, such as Zoom, or Google Meets which I use for my kids. All those platforms are similar, none of them are perfect.

We primarily use the solution for any virtual meeting. We use it for web meetings that require audio communication, text communication, and video. Video is not essential for us most of the time, however. It's not critical to see staff during, for example, team meetings.

The chat functionality and the audio capabilities are the solution's most valuable features. For us, video isn't important as long as audio is good.

The presentation of the solution is very efficient.

The solution makes it easy for us as a team to collaborate remotely.

All of the basic features are fantastic. I couldn't rank them in terms of "favorite", and they are all pretty standard within any other similar product, like Zoom or Microsoft Teams. 

Webex offers very good bandwidth managed tools. Even with low or poor bandwidth, the solution works pretty well.

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.

We've been using the solution for eight years now.

The stability of the solution is excellent compared to other solutions on the market. The solution also works seamlessly with both desktop and mobile devices.

Scalability is fantastic. It's really seamless. If you need to have a big meeting, you can do so quite easily with this solution. It works well. It supports a lot of people at once. It may be that up to one hundred users can join a single call. We've tested the solution with this amount of people and it worked fine. However, largely, we wouldn't do that. We'd run something of that size more like a one-way meeting, similar to a webinar so that things are kept orderly.

I've never contacted technical support directly. We have our own internal team that handles any troubleshooting that needs to happen.

The licensing costs are usually billed on a subscription basis, however I don't know whether it's monthly or yearly. I also don't know the exact costs to our organization. I'm only aware that it's a subscription-based model. There aren't any extra costs on top of the standard licensing fee that is charged.

We schedule calls often with this solution. We schedule a meeting and dial-in to the meeting. When I say dial-in, it's web-based or a data connection, not a traditional voice call. You don't need a phone to use the service.

I would rate this product an eight out of ten. Other products are also doing the same jobs, and run the same tasks. The only difference is stability. Especially when we do screen sharing, compared to other products, Webex performance is much better.

The solution is provided from the cloud, so we're always using the most up-to-date version of the solution. Webex ensures everything is always automatically updated.
