Webex Meetings is a great solution for our teams which are operating remotely. Their mobile app is also feature-rich & supports remote screen viewing which is a great benefit. Multi user communication is also facilitated through chat rooms and breakout zones. It helps our globally spread teams in trainings, communication and engagement.
  • Remote screen sharing.
  • Innovative breakout rooms.
  • High definition audio & video support.
  • Those who are using the free version will feel restricted.
  • Premium plans are user based and hence expensive for larger firms.
  • Recorded session quality is different from the actual session.
If you are working in a remote or a hybrid work environment where most of your team is working from home then Webex Meetings is a perfect choice for your business as it will help everyone feel more engaged & connected. It provides innovative features such as polling & gesture recognition which are gamechangers. It is not suitable for those who are already working from office, full time.

We use Webex Meetings in day to day work for meetings with our clients and partners. It gives all benefits of having a online meeting solution. Webex Meetings gives us the ability to control other parties computers remotely, it is very helpful to assist customers with their technical issues conveniently. Otherwise we have to instruct them to follow necessary steps to by telling them by voice.
  • Scheduling meetings
  • Chatting with other people within the meeting
  • File sharing plus Q&A ability
  • Remote controlling must be improved as it shows a huge badge while not controlling other side, and it is big distractor
  • GUI is not user friendly
  • Better noise reduction
  • Better view when sharing screens
  • Audio devices not recognized often
In my opinion Webex Meetings is good just have to meetings. And also it seems Cisco uses it well for their webinars but in our use cases it not user-friendly at all. I have experienced Google, Microsoft and Zoom meeting solutions as well. I would certainly prefer another solution than Webex Meetings because it is not user-friendly.

We facilitate various learning sessions using Webex Meetings. Webex Meetings allows connection with a broader audience, as well as the ability to reach larger amounts of people. We currently use Webex Meetings on demand based on the needs of our clients. We have a dedicated group of clients who request Webex Meetings specifically, who rarely use other virtual platforms.
  • Sharing documents or screens
  • App use is similar to online version
  • Meeting recording and transcription
  • Breakout rooms can be clunky on some web browsers.
  • Lag when sharing screens.
  • Video and audio can be choppy on app if not in optimum wireless environment.
I think basic meetings are great for Webex Meetings. Best when there is less sharing, or only 1 presentation sharing with no sharing multiple documents or whiteboards. I also think it's less appropriate when there are multiple breakout rooms, or where there is a need for creating different types of breakout rooms that need to be created.

We use Webex Meetings for video-to-video conferencing especially when someone is locked out on their two-factor authentication app. We use this platform to verify the identity of the person. it is so easy to use and user-friendly.
  • Clear Audio
  • Clear Video
  • Minimal to no latency
  • Make Webex Meetings more affordable
  • Complex settings
  • Auto admission of users
Webex Meetings is more suitable for teaching rather than using other video-to-video conferencing tools.

We use Webex Meetings for team collaborations, client meetings, and training sessions. It is helping us solve the problem of remote communication and improves productivity. We use Webex Meetings for cross-departmental conversations as well. It is also very resourceful in terms of remote access and also helps us in screencasting any presentation or any visuals in regard to the training.
  • Video conferencing
  • Screen share
  • Presentation
  • Option to create rooms
  • Calender sync
  • Schedule via email
Webex Meetings works really well in remote team collaboration, client calls, and online training. It displays communication, presentations, and engagement across locations. However, for brainstorming sessions, complex negotiations, or situations requiring quick decisions, the in-person format might be preferable due to the importance of nonverbal cues and real-time interaction and it could not replace physical meetings.

In our organization, we use Webex Meetings to connect with remote stakeholders and clients. The Webex interface allows seamless connection with remote countries. The interface is simple and easy to navigate through. We also use Webex Meetings for quick support calls and catch-ups. The recording feature is a plus. Webex Meetings also help in defining roles such as Admin for better control.
  • Poll option: Admins have the option to start a poll with the attendees of the meeting
  • Recording feature: Webex Meetings also helps in recording
  • Admin controls: the admin controls are particularly good
  • Webex Meetings could integrate with some more productivity tools, such as Trello and Notes Maker, which would make the software highly effective for meetings
  • The user interface can be improved to a certain extent where users can control some features, ex- shared screen, and other screen sizes
  • Webex Meetings can also improve accessibility features, like adding screen reader and keyboard shortcuts
Webex Meetings provides a variety of features which makes it a go-to tool for everyday meetings and calls. In our organization, the most liked option is the whiteboard option which lets you quickly jot down the things and gives the effect of in-person meetings for broader discussions when clients and stakeholders are present.

Most of the users are working from home right now so to connect with them we use Webex Meetings. We create virtual meetings with it. Screen sharing, unlike other applications, is really smooth. We record all our meetings with Webex Meetings which helps us keep track of all the conversations we had during that meeting.
  • Virtual meetings
  • Recording of meetings
  • Screen sharing
  • Integration with calendar
  • Mobile application is not that good
  • Breakout rooms functionality is not that smooth
It's really suitable for collaboration. If one enterprise is still working on a hybrid model or remote model, they will need a meeting app, and Webex Meetings is a great option for that. It has all the great features such as call recording and screen or data sharing. Its integration with Calendar makes sure you don't forget or miss any of your meetings.

We are a software development company and we use Webex Meetings for daily client communication as most of our clients are abroad. The user interface of Webex Meetings is easy to use. We can connect with the calendar to get auto reminders and can schedule the meeting quickly. The video quality is also very smooth. We can share our screens for presenting any Document or Report. Overall, I can say it is a must-have tool for companies who need to connect with teams remotely.
  • Good Audio & Video Quality
  • Meeting Recording Feature
  • Multiple ways to join the meeting
  • User Interface
  • Host controls
  • Sometimes microphone issues on laptop
  • Sometimes loading speed is quite slow
  • Could do better with Mobile compatibility
Cisco Webex Meetings is really helpful when you are working with a Remote team. Communication and collaboration become easy using Webex Meetings. Webex Meetings is helpful especially when your organisation is working with overseas teams. We can communicate in real time with our clients in no time using Webex Meetings. It is a must-have product for all organizations. It is less suited especially when internet speed is low.

Webex Meetings is a great meeting tool for internal as well as client communication calls. It has a desktop app as well as a mobile application that really helps when we are away from the desk and need to attend quick meetings. It also has screen sharing and remote access sharing which can be very helpful in case of remote debugging and design sharing.
  • Crisp audio and video quality
  • Supports multiple platforms
  • Content sharing
  • Meeting notes
  • UI can be a lot better
  • Navigating through the app was not really a breeze
  • The app was buggy sometimes on a low-end device
Webex Meetings, in my opinion, is very well suited if you want to host meetings with loads of people as it has some really good features, such as access control, user-based permissions, controlling mic, etc. I have also noticed when people are across different continents, it still manages to work smoothly.

We mainly started using collaboration tools since the coronavirus outbreak began, and everyone had to be inside. So we moved to a better solution to stay connected with our remote teams which are distributed across the country. Webex Meetings suits quite well with our existing work environment. The app helps us to host weekly team meetings and and monthly scheduled meetings with our partners. We normally share the meeting link through email and notify our distributed team members about the scheduled meeting. Our remote workforce can easily join the meeting and till now there was no complaints received from them regarding the app.
  • The feature set are easy to navigate thus our less tech savvy members are also able to manage and join meetings without any issues.
  • We host meetings with large amount of team member and the video and voice quality stays quite great.
  • Meetings invitation can be sent easily to desired person.
  • Screen sharing capabilities are also quite good.
  • We use both the web and mobile versions of the app, but in the Android app, the user gets logged out after a few days. They mainly say that it's for security issues, but I think when I'm using an app on my phone, and it gets logged out without notifying me, that's a bit irritating!
  • The app also ask for location access which seems odd to me.
  • Voice and video distortion issue raises in low bandwidth.
We have large number of teams that work distributed across the country and to connect with them we need a reliable meeting solution that can meet our day to day unified communication needs. Webex Meetings excel at unified communication arena and does a pretty good job connecting our remote teams and partners.

Before Covid we didn’t have much use for collaboration tools but since then not only are we hybrid but also have a USA office now so Webex Meetings allows teams that are cross site to connect.
  • Roomkit devices have been rock solid for us
  • Teams support was very nice
  • Room navigator support
  • Admins apis lack endpoints for org level settings
  • Would be nice to have a wallboard mode of control hub for monitoring
Webex Meetings software and Webex hardware have been fairly hassle-free.

We use Webex Meetings to meet with clients, partners, customers and vendors as an external meeting tool. Internally, we use Webex Calling. This product allows us to meet with multiple parties, allows access and password control, and is a secure and high-quality meeting space. We can simply log in and add or modify meetings and settings with a simple and logical user interface.
  • Secure meeting space
  • Access Control
  • Participant controls
  • Graphical user interface
  • Single Sign on
  • Could be available to launch from Webex Calling
  • Allow Calendar changes from Outlook
  • Assign other Administrators to a meeting who can also change settings
Appropriate for external meetings, simple enough to use and set up, guides and FAQ are easy to find. We don’t tend to use it so much internally as calling is faster.

Webex Meetings is used daily to communicate internally, with customers and with Cisco. As Webex Meetings integrates with Outlook I can launch meetings on any device and transfer meetings between devices where appropriate. The Apps that are built into Webex Meetings such as Slido are useful polling tools which help with attendant attention.

We use Webex Meetings for communication within the team and for communication with external customers. It enables quick and easy communication, information can be exchanged easily and you get quick feedback. In addition to text messages, media content and desktop sharing can be used. This helps in our daily work. We use Webex Teams and Webex Meetings.
  • Desktop sharing for presentations
  • Recording of content when individual participants cannot attend the meeting
  • Integration of several participants, whether internal or external
  • Cross-system meeting between MS teams and Webex
  • Remote control delay
  • Logging of meetings via AI
  • High price compared to other manufacturers
Good examples:
- Conducting trainings and courses
- Planning meetings and inviting colleagues to attend
- Presenting topics to a large group of people
- Speech reproduction is very good - assigning rights and copresentor

Not so good:
- Interaction with other applications
- Mute microphones when using multiple clients
- Video call quality
- Tracking history, private settings
