EventsWallet vs. Webex Webinars

It's perfect for hosting any kind of event like a conference, expo, webinar etc. But for our tradition, we always had the parties after the official part of the offline event, of course, it is not possible virtually.

With the help of Webex Webinars, creating interactive sessions has become very simple. One great thing about Webex Webinars is the option to engage the audience. We can create polls, create some NPS-related surveys, introduce live polling, create emoji reactions, etc. within the webinar platform, which helps us understand the pulse of the user.

• Cisco Webex Events is very straightforward and easy to use. Setting up an event within the platform is quite simple - anyone can do it.
• Webex Events is a great add-on feature to the Webex conferencing platform to allow a one-way broadcast of information, rather than worrying about attendees being able to interrupt the presentation.
• Recording a session is fairly simple and accessing the recordings post-event is quite reliable. I believe you can also upload .mp4 files into the Webex Events platform to serve as a host.

• There was no opportunity to rebroadcast the session from Streamyard, but we mentioned it to the support team and this function was added

• There always seems to be room for video quality improvement (not a necessity, but would be nice)
• Mobile screensharing from iOS/Android (and other mobile) devices would be a great feature
• The mobile app should be able to track meetings a user has been invited to, but does not do so (yet)

Now it is a very reliable tool that we need, and we have to buy it as most of the organization uses it nowadays.

My experience with this software is fantastic; it's so satisfying that it only took me a week to go through an internal training program to use this software, actually, I don't think this training program was necessary. Usability is one of the most fantastic features to guarantee the increase of members in remote events.

WebEx is available 24/7, as long as the user has a reliable internet connection and the WebEx servers are up (they are typically up when we need it).

I love the control that this product gives to those running the meetings. It allows you to assign presenter roles to people and everyone else that is an attendee can be totally controlled, like whether they can unmute, use video or just sit there and watch. It really gives control of the meeting to those who are running it. And we love that ability for those meetings that we are trying to make sure people are listening in on instead of trying to participate.

The implementation process was fairly simple and straightforward

Compared to other big-name video conferencing software, Webex Webinars stands out as it serves to cater to large events whereas the competition does not. Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Skype to name a few, have all garnered much attention due to the need for virtual meetings but none accomplish the task of facilitating large events as seamlessly as Webex Webinars. Unlike the competition which most likely could not handle events of such a large scale, Webex Webinars maintains reliable connection and meeting integrity, allowing users to focus on the experience at hand.

The scalability is really easy

• We reduced the cost price of the event due to making it virtual and also because there was no sense in printed materials, the program and catalog were perfectly arranged inside the platform
• We had more attendees because nobody needed to go out of the house to be a part of the event
• We avoided the chaos in meetings between clients and exhibitors/speakers. We never used a scheduling system before, but we realized how important and comfortable it is

• Allowed us to keep our product development moving forward during the pandemic.
• Reduced our travel costs by hosting virtual events.
• Allows us to host more events because of reduced cost over in-person events.
• Helps us with faster time to market on features as we can quickly set up and host a focus group.
