Webex Meetings is well suited for quick collaboration. I am always connected and know what’s going on thanks to the mobile app. It is very efficient in creating rooms for specific projects to keep all the team members involved and up to date on the projects.

I've analyzed countless meeting scenarios and interactions and let me tell you, Webex Meetings is a great choice when your team spans different time zones and countries and its reliable video conferencing with clear audio even on shaky connections, helps you conduct meetings smoothly. Webex also allows us to capture sessions and share them with those who couldn't attend meetings or trainings so that everyone stays informed. Its robust security features like encryption and password protection prevent sensitive information security breaches.

I think Cisco Webex Meetings is well suited for personal and business collaboration. It’s an excellent tool that allows us to communicate with audio, video, text chat, file sharing, whiteboard etc. However, I don't think there are any negatives to report as this software has managed to meet all our business expectations and provided us with a good overall experience. Since this is a software as a service solution, it can be easily provisioned to end-users.

Well suited because based on availability it entered very first in the digital world compared to other similar software, like Teams and Zoom. Moreover, Cisco is a parent company that is years old and understands the customer's requirements, and they implemented it through Webex.

My personal opinion is Webex Meetings is well-suited for team collaboration sessions, brainstorming meetings, and project discussions, though Webex can be used for various other purposes as it's a widely known collaboration tool, and you can easily use it for almost any kind of internal or external meetings and video conferencing.

Webex Meetings is well suited for training, workshops, and collaborative sessions with large audiences and is located in different locations around the world, i.e., international certifications training. The less ideal scenarios I've experienced are: kick chats or catch-ups are better with lighter tools or when I've connected from areas with limited bandwidth, the meeting with a heavy multimedia ends in a bad experience.

I guess this is suited for day to day use specially for remote wokers and oversees team to manage daily tasks. however we do not use Webex for quick catchups that is done by Whatsapp for another mode. Usually Webex is used for meetings and long discussions and where our audience is huge.

I feel it is suitable for formal conversations, official meetings where one needs to share their screen and interact with the clients, etc. or within the team based. But when someone is having an informal meeting or anything, I won't recommend Webex Meetings due to its slopy learning curve and the cost of the software.

well suited for screen sharing say IT troubleshooting wherein audio and video calls are not needed and things could work in background.
Not so suitable for chat(due to difficult user interface in terms o handling) and sharing large files.
Also, for simple and quick communication , its better to use instant messaging apps rather than setting up formal web ex meeting invite

According to me, Webex Meetings is well suited for almost every scenario where an individual has to interact with another remotely, let it be for a business meeting, a personal discussion or even to conduct an event where others can attend. Webex Meetings is not suitable for scenarios where bandwidth is par below. I usually have to connect with clients from various countries and I was facing problems in understanding their language and accent. Speech recognition real-time translation of Webex Meetings has greatly helped me in such scenarios. Thanks to the Webex Team!

In my opinion, WebEx is well suited for organizations of all sizes to collaborate both internally and externally. In the virtual world, we now live in, it is great for inter-team meetings as well as quick chats both via text and video. In addition, it is essential for sales positions where you need to meet with clients virtually or share content, demos, etc. WebEx may be less appropriate for positions where you are not collaborating a lot or selling to customers. In that specific scenario, the value-added may not be as significant. As an example, an accountant or receptionist may not need this tool. But, for sales, this is amazing!

This platform provides a set of tools that have greatly improved the communication process of our company and the workflow is much more efficient. It is very suitable for reinforcing collaborative work, sharing information with the work team in real time. Remote workers are guaranteed to connect and participate easily in meetings. With this platform it is possible to develop meetings that maximize productivity, due to its excellent interactive capabilities, making meetings more dynamic.

We are hosting our sprint meetings regularly for almost 2 years on this platform and it just works, there is not much of hassle using it. It installs easily and works flawlessly.
It also helped us during the pandemic to keep our work going.
Our teams members are very content with this platform and other teams in our organisation are shifting slowly to this platform.

In my experience, I've never encountered a Webex Meetings, either one I've hosted or externally, that has had reliable audio conferencing. Why does the video audio not work reliably? I've explored all the settings and can never seem to get it to work. Our organization has spoken to the help desk and are told it should work. Why doesn't it?

Webex Meetings is well suited for small and mid enterprises who are looking for a remote communication and collaboration tool to get rid of communication barriers. It is not suited for large enterprises since the video and audio lags a lot when there are a huge number of engaging participants.

In this rating scale I choose number 10, I have already been with Cisco Webex Meetings for about 4 years, I remember that a colleague recommended it to me and since that day I use it without regret, I recommend it to my colleagues and especially to clients to expedite the business.

Awesome Webex journey

It works exceptionally well as an internal communication tool within the company's confines. However, its effectiveness diminishes when attempting to engage individuals outside of the organization, as Webex is not as widely adopted as other platforms such as Zoom. As a result, connecting with individuals external to the enterprise may pose challenges due to the platform's comparative lack of popularity.

Well-Suited Scenarios:
  1. Internal Team Collaboration: Webex is ideal for daily check-ins, project updates, and collaborative sessions with our internal teams. Its features like screen sharing and whiteboarding are particularly useful for brainstorming and detailed discussions.
  2. Large Scale Internal Meetings: Webex efficiently handles large meetings such as company-wide town halls.

Less Appropriate Scenarios:
  1. External Partner Engagements: In interactions with external partners or clients who don't use Webex regularly, we've noticed a challenge. These partners often find it cumbersome to adapt to Webex if they're accustomed to other platforms. This can lead to technical difficulties or delays at the beginning of meetings, impacting the smoothness of the interaction.
  2. Ad-hoc External Client Meetings: For quick, impromptu meetings with clients who aren't regular Webex users, the process of downloading the app or navigating through the Webex interface can be a barrier. In these cases, a more universally familiar or accessible platform might be more suitable.

We have our meetings every Monday and Friday and we use Webex boards for meetings. It works so well, as we can share the content efficiently in the meeting and at the same time have video conferencing with the colleagues working at the office or remotely. It also integrates well with other platforms.
