Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Webex Meetings
Webex Meetings is used primarily by the Network Infrastructure and Security teams in the IT department of my organization, and usually in a "passive" capacity. That is, when a vendor or support engineer needs to schedule a meeting with us that requires the use of Webex, then we will use it. However, we typically use Zoom when we ourselves are the ones initiating the meeting.
Pros
- Ease of installation.
- Granular control over various aspects of the meeting.
Cons
- Screen sharing doesn't always work right on Macs, particularly when only trying to share a specific application.
- Webex doesn't always automatically detect the headphone and mic currently in use on the system (again, on Macs).
- As we use Webex typically in a passive capacity, I can't say that it's had any impact on ROI, whether positive or negative.
- However, it has been a useful tool when utilized, but other tools would have been just as good.
- Zoom and TeamViewer
Our organization actually prefers Zoom, and uses it almost exclusively for initiating meetings. We basically don't have a use for TeamViewer any longer.
