My Webex Meetings Review

  • Simplicity to meet face to face with anyone in the world instantly and with high quality video.
  • Robust infrastructure around the world to work without interruption.
  • Integrate with most common tools like Microsoft Exchange, Office 365 and Google Calendar.
  • Lots of features.
  • Many features available to get the most out of the tool and make it easier to use.
  • Wide range of training on the tool and the new features.
  • Choose the version that most fits your organization: Cloud, Hybrid or On Premise.
  • Possibility to force a virtual background for all users from the Control Hub. This appears to be in development.
  • Although the product is number one in large organizations, Webex Meetings could also try to capture markets where word of mouth has better positioned other products such as Zoom.
  • I can't really find more areas where Webex Meetings needs to improve substantially. The tool more than fulfills the function for which it was created and competes in a great way with those on the market.

  • The meeting app is lighter than the Webex app and takes less space.
  • The simple QR scan is a great feature.
  • Logs you out after a time period or inactivity which is good for security purposes I think.
  • The user interface is simple and easy to use, I have to admit that, but signing up sometimes from the app is harder. Signing up process needs to be more user-friendly, I think.
  • I think at least sharing files feature/option should be added in the Webex Meetings app so that we can share necessary files while attending meetings.
  • They also asked for GPS permission for motion detection which felt like a security issue to me.

  • Webex Meetings provides HD video and audio, which is amazing even in low-bandwidth situations. This ensures that participants can have clear and uninterrupted conversations, which is crucial for maintaining the flow of meetings.
  • Webex allows users to share their entire screen or select just an application to share, maintaining privacy and focusing the audience's attention.
  • Webex Meetings enables users to record meetings with a single click.
  • Simplifying the UI and making it more customizable to hide unused features could help reduce the feeling of clutter.
  • Occasionally report bugs, such as issues or problems with sharing content.
  • The pricing structure can be complex and not always transparent.

  • Webex Meetings facilitates seamless collaboration among teams situated in different regions.
  • As an executive, I prioritize the security and confidentiality of our organization's sensitive discussions. Webex Meetings offers robust security features, including encryption and access controls, to ensure that our confidential data remains protected. This is paramount in an era where data breaches and privacy concerns are pervasive.
  • Executives often find themselves interacting with clients and partners. Webex Meetings offers a professional and secure environment for these engagements. It helps build trust and fosters deeper connections with customers, reinforcing our commitment to client satisfaction and collaboration.
  • While Webex Meetings offers a user-friendly interface, there's always room for enhancing the overall user experience. Simplifying navigation, reducing clutter, and improving the intuitiveness of the platform can make it even more accessible to a wider range of users.
  • Enhancing the analytics and reporting capabilities can help organizations gain better insights into meeting and participant behavior. This data can be valuable for performance evaluation and decision-making.
  • Providing more flexible pricing options, especially for small businesses or startups, can make Webex Meetings more accessible to a broader range of organizations.

  • Webex meeting delivers crystal-clear video and audio conferencing via Cisco's cutting edge technology, this is especially crucial for remote meeting, where having a clear view and sound of everyone is essential.
  • the screen sharing functionality of webex meeting is among the best in the business, it lets us to share a share a full- resolution, real time screen share with other participants, this is perfect for group projects, training sessions and presentations.
  • With the whiteboarding feature of Webex meeting , I can collaborate in real time with other participants by drawing and annotating on a virtual whiteboard, this is an excellent method for ideation , design sketching and project collaboration.
  • I can record and transcribe meetings with Webex meeting, this is an excellent methods of gathering crucial information and disseminating it to those who were unable to witness the meeting in person.
  • the call quality of webex meeting is generally good, but occasionally it is patchy, Cisco could increase the quality of its calls by increasing its bandwidth and enhancing its call routing algorithms.
  • The desktop Webex meeting app is more user friendly than the mobile version, it could enhance the mobile app by adding more features and streamlining the joining and starting of meetings.
  • Although Webex meeting has many other applications integration, some integration are still lacing , it may combine with well known project management and CRM programs.

  • I mostly use my phone to join the meetings. The android version user interface is pretty neat and simple.
  • Scheduling and recording meetings from the app are quite easy.
  • Past meetings can be found easily here but there are some improvements needed in this section.
  • First of all, Webex Meetings android app needs to include the meeting creation features from the app without any need of other app. Scheduling meetings can be done from here but while trying to start a meeting from here they require a others Webex app.
  • Can't send message from the app directly which also requires the Webex Meeting app.
  • The UI is pretty simple and user friendly, I admit that but compared to other collaboration app the UI can do better I think.

  • Audio and video are I think the best compared with other vendors. That is my experience that VoIP only and telephony callback video and Cisco video endpoints, telepresence endpoints are working perfectly.
  • Well, improvements, I think they can go in some programmability for, let's say Webex devices improvement, something like an add-on application, which will be run on the endpoint on the devices itself. So that is, I think that can be the future, some artificial intelligence in collaboration portfolio.

  • The chat function was a useful feature
  • Calls were easy to make
  • The startup process was very slow, and the UI was difficult to navigate
  • Call quality was routinely poor
  • The program always wanted to be the most prominent program on your computer, so it always pushed itself to the front and took processing power away from other system functions

  • Creating meetings can require many clicks (compared to others)
  • The Webex Meetings apps require many clicks to get through to a meeting - far more than competitors

  • When getting into conference calls with software customer support, there are lots of cases where I need to grab a client's machine access, so it is very handy in those times.
  • It's one place where chatting, calling, screen sharing, grabinb/giving access works seamlessly.
  • Link can be easily shared and can be used from trusted parties.
  • No choppiness in the call especially with the video.
  • Files can be easily shared between the parties.
  • File size needs to be less than 10 MB, so larger files cannot be sent.
  • Its expensive compared to the competitors
  • Sometimes UX is really confusing from the admin side of settings.

  • It has a user-friendly interface that anyone can use.
  • It has a wonderful video and audio quality.
  • It provides features for the scheduling of meetings.
  • A little bit costly, they should make prices more competitive.
  • Webex Meetings should allow more information to be seen by participants because currently that's not provided.
  • The scheduling feature sometimes is not automatic making you have to enter an ID manually.

  • Visualizing all the users in a group.
  • Being able to enjoy chat function.
  • Can accommodate large groups (we had thousands on one call!!!).
  • Excellent for organizations as it is the preferred meeting platform firm.
  • Interface a bit croaky.
  • Capacity for 1000 + callers gave us video issues.
  • Not everyone can launch from their devices.
  • Still a difficulty with connectivity when I'm on my absolutely. Brand new smartphone Android. Very complex sequence of logging in and security. I mean that's good for security but I am always crossing my fingers. I can connect to the meeting when I have to launch this way.
