Webex Reviews

We are using the latest version for Mac.

We primarily use the solution for meetings with coworkers. 

When the solution is used comprehensively, the hardware and camera features combine to make it better than all others I have encountered. This is because the camera moves in tandem with the person who is using it to communicate with the other participants. 

This is one of the solution's best features. I have not encountered such features with Zoom, which are essentially involve one-on-one meetings. Webex has the hardware to allow for this. 

The price should be improved significantly. The software, licenses and hardware combine to make the solution extremely expensive. 

The interconnectivity of all of the solution's facilities and functions can be more complex than that which is involved in basic configuration, when equipment, telephone extensions or other mobile apps are thrown into the mix. 

To be sure, the solution is stable. 

The solution is certainly scalable. A feature we were lacking in Mexico involved the capability to interconnect with the local telephone companies. We are talking about the prospect of increasing the usage. During this year and last, we increased the use of any kind of non-contact communication using Webex or Zoom, the latter being preferred by some our customers who have Zoom implemented it in their companies - the reason we utilize it. However, for internal use, we exclusively utilize Webex. 

We receive good technical support from Cisco. 

We have been using Webex since I first entered the company in 2012 or 2013, as the company places a premium on fiscal solutions. It is for this reason that it adopted this technology from the outset. 

The solution combines its hardware and camera features to give it a superior edge over all others, with the camera moving in pace with the person who is communicating with other participants. I consider this to be the solution's most valuable feature and have not encountered it with Zoom, which is basically geared towards one-on-one meetings. 

The difficulty involved in the initial setup can vary. The solution is easy to configure for basic use, such as one-on-one meetings or those involving multiple parties. It is more difficult to interconnect all the facilities and functions when one adds equipment and telephone extensions or other mobile apps. 

While I do not recall how long the deployment took, the configuration of all of the functions lasted two or three days. However, there is a need to be certified by Cisco, Webex and IP telephony for this solution. 

When it comes to the deployment and maintenance, there are a couple field agents who are responsible for this. 

I cannot say for certain whether we have seen an ROI, return on our investment. 

I find the solution to be very expensive. The software, licensing and hardware add up significantly. 

I do not have the licensing figures offhand, but the prices vary with the features one wishes to add to the license. There exists the option of a free license for one-on-one or one-on-two video calls, but adding more people requires one to upgrade his license. 

The licensing fees vary with the features one utilizes, web or call conferencing incurring a basic licensing fee. An upgraded license is required if one wishes to add a mobile app or conference. There is, yet, a separate license for integrating one's computer, cell, office or desk phone. We are talking about a sort of unit for each of the features, different licensing fees applying for those which are basic, intermediate and complete. I believe these range from $120-$130 up to $700. 

I feel the solution to be very complete. 

I am a Webex customer. 

While there are 20 to 25 people making use of the solution in our organization, we also use it with another company of ours which has implemented it and this places the number in the company at around 25 to 30 people. 

Each person has a different role and is dispersed in a disparate location in the north and center of Mexico. 

I would consider the move from on-premises to cloud-based implementation to be a positive step. This makes the solution a good instrument in such countries as the United States, the UK and Germany, where there is much integration with the local cell or telephone companies. We are talking about a good investment, as it allows one to integrate his office or home phones with the solution. 

I rate Webex as a nine out of ten. 

I am using Webex for virtual meetings.

I have been using Webex for approximately two years.

The solution at times is not stable.

The scalability is not that good. If we small group meeting the solution is good, but if there is a large group of people to join the meeting then the network seems unstable.

We have approximately 1,000 users using this solution which consists of managers and officers.

I have previously used Zoom and Microsoft Teams. We switched to Webex because they had some local support here in Hong Kong.

The installation of Webex is simple. You only need to click an executable file to run it. it is very easy.

We did the installation of the solution.

We have one engineer that supports this solution.

We have received a return on investment. The solution has been useful for our organization.

There is a subscription needed to use this solution and we pay approximately $5,000 per year.

I would recommend this solution for small group meetings.

I rate Webex a seven out of ten.

I use Webex for conference calls with buyers and overseas calls. 

The stream is very smooth. That's what I like about Webex. Other video conference solutions like Zoom sometimes freeze and get buggy, but Webex doesn't. 

Webex's Bluetooth functionality could be better. For example, I use Webex on my Android mobile phone and connect with Bluetooth. It connects, but I cannot speak through the Bluetooth microphone and earphones with Webex. It's always disabled. I don't know why. Also, if I want to pause my screen or mute my microphone, I have to go through several menus. I want easy access to that option. 

I have used Webex for around eight or nine years. 

Webex is stable.

It's hard to compare it to Zoom, but I like Webex a little better.

Webex is easy to use. Everything is pre-installed on my work computer by an IT guy in this company. He installs it by himself.

I believe we pay for an annual subscription to Webex. 

I rate Webex eight out of 10. 

I like WebEx's stability and ease of use. The screen-sharing tools and audio controls are also nice. 

I was in a meeting on the free version where there were no controls. You couldn't mute somebody or put it in dedicated speaker mode. It was an important meeting, and because of the lack of an ability to control who the speakers were, we got a version of a heckler. Well, it wasn't really a heckler per se. It was just somebody who thinks they know everything.

I've had a WebEx account for more than 10 years.

WebEx is stable. It works. 

I don't use WebEx for large meetings, but it can scale up. I work in tandem with another guy in the automotive space. He has regular meetings of anywhere from 16 to 30 people. He can easily manage the speakers and things like that. He pays for the subscription and gets all the features because he needs them. 

Installing WebEx is straightforward. It's just a couple of clicks on an executable installer. You can log in with an ID or not.

I use the free version, not the enterprise version. The only compelling reason to go for paid WebEx pay is if you're hosting large meetings.

I rate WebEx 10 out of 10. 

I use this tool to communicate with my team. I have a developer team, so I use this tool to communicate with them. We use both the chat and the video conferencing system on our computers.

The noise cancellation feature is great. When you have a call, the noise cancellation during it is really good. It's the best one if you're looking for that specific feature. We haven't tried Zoom, however, compared to Microsoft Teams, WebEx is a lot better.

The initial setup is really easy.

The solution has been very stable. 

The scalability is quite good.

If you decide to use the paid version, you can have the scheduler and the meeting portal all on the same platform. 

The main issue is the performance in relation to the operating system. The base application uses a lot of resources. They could work on the performance of the application so that it's less heavy.

There are sometimes a lot of updates, however, we find the solution to be very stable right now. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

You can scale the solution if you need to. It's not a problem.

Right now, we have ten users that are connected to the solution. 

Our team is using it all the time. Everyone on the team works remotely; it's our main engagement channel.

As we grow our company, we'll likely increase usage. 

As I am leveraging the free version, I haven't used the support.

I also use Microsoft Teams. I use both right now. 

We used Microsoft Teams, however, we changed to WebEx as the main channel due to the noise cancellation that wasn't good enough on Teams. Also, Microsoft Teams used a lot of resources on the operating system - so much so that the computer started to go slow when we used the application.

I simply downloaded the solution from Cisco's web page. 

The implementation is really easy. The difficult part is understanding the free version from the other plan that has a cost. At the first, they didn't have an online purchase of that version, so you have to contact a partner in order to buy the install. It's a bit confusing between both versions, the free and the paid version.

The solution does not require any maintenance. 

I use the free version of the solution. I don't pay for licensing at this time. 

We did try Zoom, however, you could only use it for 40 minutes, and that wasn't enough time for us.

I'm just a customer and an end-user. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. I'd recommend it to others. It's a good tool. 

My primary use case of Webex is for virtual meetings. 

It's a nice tool for virtual meetings and I'm satisfied with its performance. 

This service could be improved by implementing integration with Microsoft platforms. If you are on a call with Webex, you can get a call from Teams or Skype for Business without receiving any indication. 

I have used this solution a couple of times, mostly when I get a conference call invitation from other companies that use Webex. 

Installation was straightforward. From a call invitation, you receive a link and can install it directly from the web. 

I implemented myself. You don't need a technical team for deployment or maintenance. 

I have also used Zoom, Skype for Business, and Teams. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. It is a nice tool, but I rarely use it because I only hold meetings over Webex when another company initiates the conference call with this software. 

Our primary use case of this solution is for internal company meetings. We are customers of Webex and I'm the owner.

The best features of this product are the quality of sound, quality of pics and video. I think it's a very good software.

The price of the solution could be slightly reduced. 

I've been using this solution for two months. 

The initial setup was very straightforward. No bugs or glitches. We have between five and 10 users in the company. 

I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10. 

I like Webex because it is easy to work with.

In terms of improvement, every time I want to join a meeting on the web, I have to download an extension or the desktop app. It would be better if I could just join meetings directly on the web without extra downloads and steps. Simplifying this process would make things more straightforward and convenient for users like me.

I have been working with Webex for almost four years.

I would rate the scalability as a ten out of ten. It is most suitable for small to medium businesses.

I have used Microsoft Teams along with other solutions like Webex, and in comparison, Teams stands out for its seamless integration with Office 365. The compatibility with business needs makes Teams a preferred choice. While both Teams and Webex serve their purposes, the ease of use and integration with Microsoft's suite of tools make Teams a more convenient option for me.

The initial setup was not overly difficult, but it was time-consuming.

For those considering using Webex, my advice would be to explore automation options, especially if there is an outside team involved. Automating certain tasks can streamline processes and make using Webex more efficient. Overall, I would rate Webex as an eight out of ten.
