Webex Connect is a necessity for many of our clients, and we have observed that their whole infrastructure is built around it. This proves to be more helpful, when you are working across platforms across multiple apps. Apart from that, managing client onboarding in projects, auto responders, creating channels, creating automated flows, pushing updates to keep them in loop, are some of the features that we use on a daily term. For me, Automation of flows was relatively new, and to see it in action for the first time was an incredibly new experience. Especially the part where I did API integration for our internal chat module.

  • A high end application UI suffocates on low end hardware, so a "lite" version should be there
  • SDK integration is messy for starters

Usability
They deserve a 10+ rating starting from signing up to implementing their services. I am not the best person to get computer tasks done and this company made it a breeze.

I would rate a solid 9 in case of usability as it does its work perfectly without any lacks and delays, we are using it for almost 3 years now and have not faced any major bug or issue with it. along with that it's easy to construct a Flow end to end where you just drag and drop icons to make the nodes working together with each other and as well as its learning curve is very simple and can be used by a non tech person also.

Support Rating
I sent a question to support via email and within 12 hours heard back in an email. They also provided me a phone number for further help if I could not solve my issue.

Alternatives Considered
  • Yes, it is good to use Plivo, as per the pricing and ease of integration. Twilio has a difficult pattern for business developers and could be understood only by a developer.
  • Plivo has proper delivery reports as compared to Twilio. Using Plivo has helped us grow efficiently and in a good manner.

Webex Connect has a great user interface and multiple client handling capacity, which makes it stand out from the competition. They also have support from Cisco teams, which is a game changer in this field. They have way more advanced systems than other companies.
