Webex is awesome conference tool
It is one of the best software to organize team meetings & training through Webex. We can invite multiple people through a single link. Its recording quality with a large audience on one platform is awesome. Webex has a good communication platform. easy to share the screen and data with the guest.
- It provides high-quality video Conferencing webinar.
- We can mute everyone in one way as per our convenience.
- Good recording quality, easy to use and perfect screen sharing without lag.
- It isn't easy to chat, ask a question or raise hand.

We use Webex Events to organize events for training and online meetings in our organization. It really helps us in this pandemic period of time since we can organize very important and high-level events in our country. Webex [Events] is used for too many participants, and it can maintain a high-quality video and audio for all participants [at] the same time.
- We can organize online meetings professionally
- It is simple to use, and it helps to be very easy for the end user also
- Webex Events doesn't let you down in your most important event, it does not crash
- Sometimes we have to open the link twice to enter an event
- In meeting with too many participants, it can sometimes be hard to manage reminder times for the participants
- Audio is very important in online meetings, so it should not drop when we face low internet speeds
As a Technology Distributor, we organize large webinars, conferences, and events for our partners. Before the pandemic, we used to do in-person events in our office's auditorium or hotel venues. However, everything changed with Covid, we urged to migrate to online events. We find Webex Events an excellent tool to continue executing these events.
- Hosting for large number of participants.
- Polls and Q&A.
- Easy to mute / unmute audience.
- Every attendee receives the recording via email, easy to watch.
- The set up page is not user-friendly.
- A waiting room would be nice.
- It's not possible to brand the event.
- Too many options in the settings.

Webex Events is reliable and full of features
we use "Webex Events" to set events and occasions meetings to make a presentation to our clients. and also on monthly team meetings to set goals and milestones and it's a very good user-friendly tool. and one of its best features is that it really helps us fully concentrate with the presenters as we can mute other participants just for a little while.
- Sharing documents from the host desktop[.]
- The many options to control the audience[.]
- The surveys and live Q&A[.]
- Recording events feature is missing[.]
- Waiting room feature is missing[.]
- Mobile screen sharing feature is missing[.]

Mostly we use Webex Events when we organize tech days for our customers. Our private customers also use Webex Events to organize events for their internal events. It is useful to control the audience's behaviors before the exam. I mean, you may also set audience permissions so the event will be not interrupted because of anything.
- Best for tech talks.
- Best for organize some public events.
- Can control audience options.
- Webex Events setting page may be much more user friendly.
- Too many options are on setting page, most we are not using.

Webex Events Review
We use Webex Events for webinars and training purposes when our Sales or Technical department needs to reach out to a large audience. We also host workshops and live demonstrations on the Webex Events platform because it's not only capable of hosting video-enabled meetings but has screen, file, and video sharing capabilities, and also we are able to control the audience (panelists vs participants).
- Hosting large webinars.
- Controlling the audience.
- Sharing media.

Webex Events is a blessing during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Webex Events is being utilized across our entire organization. This software has increased communication abilities immensely. I highly recommend Webex Events to anyone looking for software capable of creating engaging online events. This truly helps to engage with prospective clients, existing customers, and fellow employees. Using Webex Events is a breeze!
- Makes for engaging internal meetings.
- Ease of use with interface.
- Event setup is very simple.
- More tools could be added to make events and presentations more aesthetic.
- It would be nicer to have a "waiting room" for viewers to remain in beforehand.
- An increased participant number would be nice to have for more than 1,000 attendees.

Tool for virtual townhalls
Webex Events use in our organisation as a primary tool for big events and webinars. The tool provides a great way to meet people in a various use cases such as webinars, training sessions, townhalls and etc. This tool made a huge positive impact during the pandemic for our organisation.
- Scalable platform.
- User friendly and easy to use.
- Customization interface.
- Analytics.
- Logo size is limited to specific resolution, it is not convenient for users.
- Old legacy user interface, unlike Webex Meetings.
- Participant capacity is limited if compare to competitors.

Webex Events is the event platform for your company
In this post-COVID society we are running almost all of our big regional meetings on this service. We actually have a special setup of it that allows us to bump up to 3,000 people on a single call. This has provided everything we need to allow our users to connect with their leadership and get updates even while we are all spread out.
- It has a great "green room" called Practice Mode that allows you to get all your speakers in a "room" virtually to prepare while others are joining the real call. It's great.
- Being able to go up to 3,000 users is a huge benefit to us.
- Audio management of unmuted participants is huge.
- Breakout rooms.
- Sometimes practice mode causes issues, but most times its fine.
I am currently in an online certification course that uses Webex as their media for facilitation. I am currently the only one in this office using Webex.
- Webex is great for interaction with your users/learners. You can have them add to the screen (arrows, text, shapes, etc..) or you can have them add an emoticon of your choice, or type in the chatbox! There are so many options.
- The breakout sessions are very useful. It allows you to break your learners into teams and allow them to have their own screen and chat ability between just those few individuals, for a predetermined amount of time.
- Once you end your breakout session, you can display all of the different groups work to the entire class. Whatever was done within the breakout session can now continue all together as one. It's great for review and discussion.
- You are unable to MUTE yourself in a breakout session like you can in the default room.
- The collapsible sidebars could be formatted better. You basically can see either the participants, chatbox, or polling section one at a time, but not all at once, which can be inconvenient at times.

WebEx May Be the Pioneer of Videoconference Technology
WebEx is often used here because an external party uses that platform. We would join a WebEx meeting, usually for some type of tutorial or training. It is used by various departments here and provides a way for users to see an instructor do a demo that involves software or a computer usage.
- Training - trusted platform for training purposes
- Real-time - remote participants can provide real-time feedback via voice or chat
- Interface - the interface is fairly simple and easy to understand for someone who has never used the platform before. The barrier to entry is relatively low.
- There always seems to be room for video quality improvement (not a necessity, but would be nice)
- Mobile screensharing from iOS/Android (and other mobile) devices would be a great feature
- The mobile app should be able to track meetings a user has been invited to, but does not do so (yet)

Webex Events and how they drive business.
WebEx is used by many of my peers at my job. We mainly use it to hold events for marketing as well as setting up internal calls for all hands meetings. The best experience I have had is with lead generation from bigger webinars and getting future prospects for our cloud platforms.
- Lead Generation
- Simple to use
- Great for PowerPoints and polling
- Not very customizable
- Needs to be easier to promote people
