Overall Satisfaction with Webex (formerly Webex Teams)
Our company is transitioning from Skype over to Webex Teams as Skype is phased out by Microsoft. It will soon become our sole platform for communication, meeting scheduling/management and instant messaging. During Covid-19, a platform that allows for seamless collaboration and instant messaging has been incredibly important. Even for those in the office, with social distancing measures I have relied on a tool daily. The platform is used across the organization which enables me to reach anyone I need to.
- Group chats/team conversations (can customize as well)
- Integration with outlook and meeting
- Statuses - updating status to in meetings etc
- Navigating takes a little getting used to
- Sometimes crashes with meetings
- Meeting schedule sometimes does not refresh so need to refresh manually
- Extremely valuable during a telework environment to maintain constant communication and collaboration
- Creating chat spaces is very valuable to avoid long email chains of back/forth
- Keeping a larger organization connected during Covid-19 era
Webex teams and Microsoft Teams are very similar, I think it depends on what your organization is using as to which way you would go. I find the platforms and overall experience to almost be exactly the same, although I think Microsoft Teams has more awareness and therefore less hesitancy to use for people outside of the platform. I think Webex teams for a large enterprise is far superior than programs like Google Hangouts, Zoom, Skype etc. Everything is all in one place and the integration with Microsoft outlook is seamless.
