Considered Both Products
Webex Webinars
Chose Webex Webinars
Each vendor determines which platform works best for their presentations. Each platform has its strengths and weaknesses. Teams is a memory hog that can often freeze up someone's computer because of bandwidth issues. Zoom has tons of bells and whistles and offers more than …
Chose Webex Webinars
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 …
Chose Webex Webinars
In my opinion, WebEx Event Center is one of the more reliable and accessible tools in its space. Video and audio streams are solid and it offers many of the features that a company would ask for from a tool like this. I will say that Event Center could learn from products like …
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Webinars has more customisation options than Zoom Webinars and allows a staggering 1,00,000 attendees in a webinar. It also provides detailed analytics after the webinar which helps us make informed decision and look for ways to increase our number of attendees and the …
Chose Webex Webinars
One of the main reason we chose Webex Webinar was because trainers like the in-webinar/training emoticons that stick next to a user's name on the participant panel. Other products just have the emoji's that pop up, but you can't easily tell who posted them. Those are important …
Chose Webex Webinars
Slightly easier set up for the end user for Webex Webinars. It doesn't require an account creation like ON24. That being said, ON24 has robust reporting and polling capabilities.
Chose Webex Webinars
WebEx has some advantages over Google Meet and Zoom. For instance, Google Meetin has a video meeting recording option only in the commercial version of the subscription. Zoom can record for up to 40 minutes only, which is not really suitable for a long-lasting event like …
Chose Webex Webinars
We have been using Webex webinar for a long time and we did not find a reason to change to other applications because of the kind of features it provides for a larger group like us.
Chose Webex Webinars
Zoom has updated and is gaining fast on Webex and lot user friendlier when it comes to break out rooms.
Chose Webex Webinars
I think Webex is comparable to Zoom in features and quality. We chose it because we use the whole suite of Webex tools.
Chose Webex Webinars
There are some features that score above them but going for Webex was a management decision. The security feature of WebEx is what drove the decision. Most of the customers can join WebEx without any security concerns. Other applications have a lot of restrictions interns of …
Chose Webex Webinars
I enjoy the fact that it is very simple and easy to use when joining a meeting. You can see all sides and chat boxes with everyone who may share comments. I liked that you could easily create web conferences that are user-friendly. The options are available to schedule an event …
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Events is my choice to make events because it can afford more participants without losing audio and video quality. Webex Events is more professional, and with it, we can make high-level events like a Digital Summit. The users can use it without the need [for an] …
Chose Webex Webinars
We actually prefer MS teams as its now easier to chat; manage virtual backgrounds, better audio, and overall more features and tools. Given we actually use MS teams for daily meetings now, it led to us also using MS Events. As a result, we began to consolidate to only using MS …
Chose Webex Webinars
There are many products similar to Webex meetings but I have never used any similar to Webex Events as an event organizer
Chose Webex Webinars
When it comes to webinars and large audiences, Webex Events have far more options than other regular meeting platforms. There is a little advantage in sound quality and screen sharing, but it counts. other platforms like zoom have a nicer interface but lack the many "Webex …
Chose Webex Webinars
I would choose Webex Events to make an event because it can support more participants than Microsoft Teams. Webex Events can accept people with different email addresses not only local or organization/business emails. Webex Events has a higher quality audio and video connection …
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Events is used internally by the company so we use it free without paying any fees, unlike ON24 we need to pay money for every webcast we need to do. Microsoft Teams has small issues in the connectivity when the audience is more than 100.
Chose Webex Webinars
Honestly, Webex Events didn't stack up that well against Zoom. The backend event details section was not as robust, the interface is not very user-friendly and the audio/video quality was not as good. The primary reason I chose to use Webex Events was that we already had an …
Chose Webex Webinars
Our company tried RingCentral before switching over to Webex Events. Both are very similar when it comes to providing a platform to allow people to communicate with one another. Overall, Webex provided us with a much simpler interface to navigate. Webex also presented us with …
Chose Webex Webinars
Compared to Zoom, we prefer Cisco Webex Events for a number of reasons. Namely, for the sake of streamlining alongside other Cisco products that are heavily relied upon throughout the firm. While Zoom is very popular, Cisco Webex Events was preferred for security purposes, as …
Chose Webex Webinars
We had to use something hosted externally and the Cisco Webex Events product just had the best host of features. Polling and online Q&A were important features. And the multimedia which of course Skype has. But we've had bandwidth problems in the past with Skype and it's …
Chose Webex Webinars
We have now started using Zoom as it is relatively cheaper and also people are now more used to it as for small group meetings, this is preferred tool in our company.

License to host Cisco Webex Events is limited to only HR department or senior executives in our company, hence …

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.

Pros
Cisco
  • 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.

Cons
Cisco
  • 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)

Webex Webinars continues to provide exceptional value as a community engagement and professional education platform. As long as there are a multitude of event offerings and the product continues to be supported with periodic software and security updates, I can anticipate using Webex Webinars for the foreseeable future. Overall a great product!

Usability
Cisco
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.

Support Rating
Cisco
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.

We actually prefer MS teams as its now easier to chat; manage virtual backgrounds, better audio, and overall more features and tools. Given we actually use MS teams for daily meetings now, it led to us also using MS Events. As a result, we began to consolidate to only using MS teams for both daily meetings and MS events for larger meetings - in lieu of Webex Events
