It can be useful for organizations which uses hybrid and work from home model. By using this application we can seamlessly connect with each and every person in the organization. Used to conduct meetings about progress of project and can be able to present our data to others by screensharing option.

I would say I'm probably between a seven and an eight. It depends on what the customer wants for. If the reporting is a big issue to them that they can't just report on any calls that are made from the phone, that might not be a solution fix for them. But for the most customers, especially if they're traditional based contact centers, it is a good fit for them. With the digital channels that come in that they can now start taking chat messages or SMS texts or emails or whatever like that, there's some advantages to having those channels. For that scenario, as long as the customer understands well, we have a couple of these, what I don't call one-offs or caveats, until we get those figured out, I am good with taking customers through that product and I think they'll have a good experience customer. The big customer I just brought, they love it. They absolutely love the product. They have the integration with, they use Google text to speech, so they can type out their prompts, they can change their prompts, menu options on the fly. They can type out what they want to say and the Google text to speech reads that message to the callers so they don't have to record the prompts and that stuff. That's something they absolutely love and I think it's been a good fit for them. Retail is one because of the digital channels, I think I've already mentioned well suited for, and I think we definitely got customers that fit that really well. I think it will fit customers that have distributed stores or distributed branch offices. I think that's a real good fit for them from a cloud-based system or people that work from home in a hybrid and work environments, contact centers, working from home, all good fits. Where I don't think it fits real well right now is when you've got customers that depend on that phone system being up. We lose our internet connectivity now I can't get to my cloud-based WebEx, cloud-based contact center. I have to switch to some other way to get out to the internet or customers that the business model says I cannot buy company policy, put my stuff in the cloud and there's limitations and I've got a customer like that that needs it on-prem and WebEx Contact center is not going to be a fit for them or WebEx calling or any of those. Cloud-based systems are not going to be a fit for them. And we need on-prem solutions for that.

Cons
Cisco
  • Compared to zoom, I think the user experience is not as good.
  • I am not familiar with more detailed options; maybe they are too hidden: how do I integrate Slido better?
  • Not a fan of a mobile app. Maybe needs some improvement.

  • More options in the Text to Speech area.
  • Better highlighting of the call flows so you can better follow when troubleshooting.
  • Unless already available, it would be great to have a test number to call into and have the call flow light up to indicate your current position in the flow.

While Webex has strong adoption on the administrative side, the LTI tool for Webex is lacking some important support for teaching and learning. Therefore, faculty do not see much value in Webex and prefer to use other tools that are easier to access and more likely to benefit their students within the LMS. Webex has not been the easiest to work with for identifying pedagogical roadmap improvements, especially compared to competitors who work closely in the education space

We are happy with the product, with Cisco as a partner and the roadmap looks mightily impressive. Webex Contact Center is one of our growth areas so we're keen to get more agents on the platform, we want to get more customers on it and we want to make use of all the features and functionalities it offers, so that we can help our customers do what they do best.

Usability
Cisco
Webex is quite usable, and it is, in fact very easy to use as well. You don't need a lot of documentation to learn how to use the app as it's mostly self-explanatory. The user interface is easy on the eyes, and people can see buttons without issues. Overall, WebEx's front-end design is great and I don't have much issue with it.

It is great to use Webex Contact Center as it delivers the call routing and workflow for agent and call routing. In addition to this the noise reduction helps to focus attention on the call and with the client. The notes feature and the ability for the transcription really helps with translation and language barriers.

Reliability and Availability

I would say every time I open it, it is there, there are times that our users have to sign out and back in to get it to work or even do a full exit as the app will disconnect from the controlling the desk phone, but some easy steps to sign-out or fully exit the app gets the user back up and running quickly.

On standalone it works fine, it used to consume a considerable amount of system resources in the past, but with updates and upgrades, this has improved quite a lot. As far as integrations with other systems, we have not come across any critical issues with the app.

Talking about Webex App technical support is talking about the quality because they are always attentive and willing to attend to our needs, and the response is immediate; every time we have needed help to solve a problem or find out a function, they have not responded quickly, Cisco has always been characterized by being efficient and deserving 10 points.

I am very satisfied with my experience with Webex App in online training. The creation of the event is very easy with the possibility of scheduling it in advance. The management of participants, organizers, and animators is complete. The invitations are automated and by simply using emails we can create all the schedules of the training session

I would rate the online training 8/10. It provided clear and well-structured content, making it easy to understand the core features of Webex. However, I believe it could have been more interactive, with practical exercises or real-life scenarios to enhance user engagement. More advanced topics or troubleshooting guides could also be helpful for deeper learning.

There was quite a bit of back and forth with TAC and Cisco Reps to get it fully up and running but we did get there. Some of which had to do with documentation was not fully understandable. But with Cisco TAC we were able to get fully up and running.

Microsoft Teams, while being built for more file sharing, completely misses the mark. I prefer Webex App which focuses on being a great chat tool, rather than trying to become something it is not. Slack is preferred over Webex App, but just barely, and it is only because Slack has a slightly more intuitive group discussion function.

Webex Contact Center feels the most modern of the solutions we evaluated. It is an all in one package which required no capital expenditure up front. Webex Contact Center was able to integrate with the AI packages which our IT team investigating for future use. Webex Contact Center was also able to integrate with the CRM packages which we use internally (without the use of a 3rd party connector).

Once everything is in place on the back end getting Webex on a user's PC is now very easy and with single sign-on, users are able to sign in without having to remember another password. Just make sure you have all the user settings in CUCM, CUC set right, and that they have the needed licenses in Webex Control Hub.
