For the time being within our company, we have had to request virtually nothing from Cisco technical support. We trust Cisco if we ever need to ask technical questions.

It is ok .... I don't get responses on problems and issues automatically, we have to wait often. I think the support is based in CA and we are in MA and it lags on the response. I used to always have the same lady as support and she was very friendly but often had to check on the issue with a colleague instead of fixing the issue on the phone. Sharing screen has been a saver. The support is good but takes time.

They have been so knowledgeable in helping us get to know the product and have been easy to get a hold of when needed. They also follow up very well to make sure that the problem was solved and the product is working as expected. And the reviews that they do of tickets really helps us see what our main problems are and how we can train our users better.

Cisco Webex Calling is supported by the Cisco TAC that is very good. For a simple problem it can take 24/48h to be resolved or more if its very complex. The problem could be on PSTN provider because Cisco never provide PSTN for Webex Calling. If you have a local gateway, you need to debug it.

I have actually never talked with the support team. We have an inside IT team at SEG and at my old company brightedge. When we would have an issue we would submit a ticket to the IT team, and they were able to fix it within 20 minutes so we could continue scheduling Webex calls.

The vendor has been very timely in responding to our high-level requests for support and we have had all major issues regarding connectivity resolved extremely quickly with additional support from our IT teams.

The sales and support teams have been far from optimal. This is one area that the company will continue to need to invest in if they have any chance of staying competitive with Zoom and Hangouts. That said, with a bit of improvement they can make progress, but it's very expensive for what you currently get.

We receive surprisingly fast support any time this is required. The support team is efficient and immediately hands-on to resolve challenges and get the phone system up and running on the same day as errors and issues are reported. Proactive measures are taken too, as we are often asked to submit feedback about voice quality, overall satisfaction, etc.

During the initial set up I felt like I got to know customer service very well, and each call I made was answered promptly and professionally. I would say they have good service with knowledgable staff. Most every question was answered right then but if not or if I left a voice message they typically got back to me within 24 hours.

I have found Cisco Webex Support to be one of the most professional and well equipped enterprise level support sectors. They never hesitate to discuss customer issues in detail and they do their homework before jumping onto any solution.

Overall there have been instances where support was lacking initially on the product, and the onboarding time was much longer than anticipated and committed. There have been several Cisco employees very willing to help, but few had the ability to actually do the work.

I have not had the need to work with the support team. However, I have had little issues that I need support with.
The only issue is the browser, but that is simply fixed by selecting another browser.

Support document and online help is well documented and sufficient enough to fix all the issues which we faced during regular use.I was always in awe whenever help from support team was required. They are very technical, prompt and very user-centric. I have not heard from anyone in team that has had challenges with them.

I have never had an interaction with the Cisco WebEx Calling support team. As I said before, the software interface is intuitive and easy to use. This has gone far in preventing the need for customer support.
