Making sure everyone was trained to use the products. Making sure all functionality necessary was being used. Making sure there was plenty of trained virtual producers to troubleshoot any issues that arose.
We were able to provide multiple product solutions for hybrid meetings. There are clients who do not use anything except Webex Meetings. We had people in place with the knowledge of use and training to get everyone up to speed on using the products.
We have been able to connect to plan, strategize and facilitate various virtual sessions. We've been able to connect with global internal teams as well as global clients. We have experienced the joy of seeing people "Face to Face" regardless of their location or time zone. We have taken sales to another level because of access.
I would select Webex Meetings 2nd to Zoom. Although the functionalities are similar, there are some things that flow better with Zoom. The others are not as reliable for meetings as Webex Meetings or Zoom.
