District Manager in Sales at ADP (10,001+ employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In my position, I use WebEx Meetings on a daily basis to meet with clients, prospects, and colleagues within the organization. It really is essential to my job in sales day today. To start, we use WebEx meetings to collaborate with our sales team, business units, as well as corporate training. On the sales side, I use WebEx meetings to schedule virtual appointments, calls, demos, etc. with prospective buyers or existing clients to discuss their accounts. This is valuable as it allows multiple parties to join the session and allows me to speak & share content.

Pros

Allows for sharing content, making annotations, customizable presentation.
Allows for group trainings and call in which a lot of attendees are required.
Performs well for team meetings and quick communication via audio & video.

Cons

At times, the meeting audio/video can get glitchy if there are a lot of attendees online and using bandwidth.
Sometimes, it is hard for my prospects to join the meeting without downloading software or can't get the audio to work for some reason.
Hard to navigate attendees while presenting yourself.

Return on Investment

Year over year sales growth even during the COVID period and transitioning to Work From Home.
Defining an onboarding process for new hires virtually as well as increased team collaboration in a remote environment.
Higher productivity and saving time as I do more meetings online as opposed to in person. Less time is wasted and worked as a result.

We use Webex Meetings for any and everything, ranging from collaboration between teammates for their daily work, to weekly team meetings, to large Town Hall type meetings.

Security is top of mind and Webex is an Industry Leader in this category
Crisp video and audio makes it easy for workers to work from anywhere
AI Assistant and Transcription Services make it easy to be fully engaged in the meeting and not get sidetracked with note taking

Cons

Webex could be easier to join if you don't have the app installed
Mobile integration with Carplay could be better
Easier to navigate through the meetings app

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

When Covid made working from home compulsory i looked around for a communications product I could use. I needed a secure, consistent and reliable product that I could use to communicate with my colleagues. I started with Zoom but that got hacked. I then shifted to Webex Meetings. Webex Meetings met all of those criteria. Still using Webex for working from Home

Pros

Allows feedback from meeting attendees. Eg clap, thumbs up
Allows sharing of documents, screen share.
Has a whiteboard you can share with students
Students can also share their problems

Cons

I really cannot think of anything at present.
Perhaps a selection of elevator music while you wait for meeting to start.
A clearer link for students to join regular meetings

Return on Investment

As A Cisco Networking Academy we are able to use WebEx for free
Great return on investment

Alternatives Considered

Class for Zoom

Other Software Used
