How Webex Meetings Differs From Its Competitors

Adoption

As previously mentioned, many of our users across the organization are end users of Webex meetings set up by other parties. Not that many people in our situation are the Webex meeting provider/initiator. Most Webex meeting initiated are by the IT department. If users need to be able to host …

Cisco Webex Meetings is easy to use and navigate. I honestly do not use these features listed. However, I do appreciate that the audio is usually very clear so the automatic noise suppression is good!

I use Webex Teams on a more regular basis than Webex Meetings. With Teams you can chat, swap files, and spin up meetings with ease. My IT Department uses it as a chat blog and way to reach each other or leave notes. Being able to add GIF's makes it a little more fun too.

Honestly, we are not using Cisco Webex Meetings much anymore. We have largely abandoned it in favor of Microsoft Teams and Zoom. In fact, I would disagree that Cisco Webex Meetings is a particularly user-friendly application. It tends to take over one's computer with updates, and one the updates …

The noise suppression for Webex, I believe has been great. I don't really notice much noise in my meetings, so it must be doing its job. :) As for the real-time transcription, I've only had access to it for a couple days, but it's okay. I'd say it does a decent job most of the time. It's not on …

We've used Panopto to live stream open forum sessions in Webex Meetings. We would have solely used Events to handle the open forums, but one of the panelists were being interviewed and we did not want them to be able to read the chat or Q&A. We used Webex Meetings with those who were intended as …

I wish it was more secure. Particularly the Education Connector. With this tool, the link to a meeting is not authenticated. Users who have access to the link could share it with anyone they wanted. However, it does use that user's name that is used in the LMS, so it would be easy to track who …

Cisco’s complexity was its downfall in our org. It was replaced by Microsoft Teams and Zoom because of their integration and simplicity.

It was not convenient, it was not simple, and it has not risen to meet the needs of our current situation in a way that is measurably commensurate with it’s peers (Microsoft Teams and Zoom). Just because a platform has a lot of features doesn’t mean those features create a harmoniously integrated …

  • Like many others, our organization had to go virtual. We were behind the times when the pandemic started and had to adjust fast. WebEx teams helped bring us into the 21st century. So I imagine the ROI was immense.
  • The ease of using WebEx has also (likely) positively influenced our return to work plans. Had we chosen bad software to help facilitate our change from in-person to virtual, I could be sitting in an office right now. As it stands, everyone I work with enjoys and finds value in WebEx. I think that’s helped us be productive no matter where we work, which in turn has influenced leadership.
