Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Meeting Server

We use it as an of our collaboration tool for meetings and video conferences. A lot of different solutions are available, cause of our dependencies with Cisco products, like network hardware and so on. It's a pretty obvious option to use Cisco Meeting Server as the default solution. We have different types of Webex boards in our meeting rooms, and it's working fine together. A lot of options, scalability, and security features.

Pros

  • Videoconferencing
  • Collaboration (whiteboards)
  • Meetings in person (f2f)

Cons

  • Connectivity can be problem, disconnects
  • Speed sometimes slow
  • Not so easy to use (settings)
  • More meetings came in, but in more efficient way
  • More features are available in our meetings
  • More connections to the colleagues through Cisco Meeting Server
Both are good ones. We use them both in our daily work. The interface of MS Teams is a bit more modern for me, but it's much more complex to use too. I personally prefer Cisco Meeting Server, but technically I can't decide; they offer pretty much the same for office work.

Would you buy Cisco Meeting Server (discontinued) again?

No

Well, for a meeting or conference with a large number of participants, it's good and works pretty well from my point of view. But for, let's say, minor meetings, like one-on-ones, face-to-face meetings, it's maybe too much, too complex, and not so easy to use. For the latter, a simple Webex call is much easier.
