Cisco WebEx Support Lost My Support
Rating: 6 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We stopped using Cisco WebEx at the beginning of this year and one of the reasons why is because of the drop in quality of service by Cisco WebEx Support. We were using it across our whole organization (350+ employees) and with all of our clients (10,000+ end users). For many years, Cisco WebEx Support helped us to provide training, customer support, and sales demos to current and potential clients.
Pros
- Provide ability to gain control of the computer for an end user that is connected to the same meeting.
- Easy to start a session on the fly.
Cons
- Review the assignments of their own support teams that have to work with users like myself to resolve issues that my co-workers are having.
- Assign support representative by regions. It doesn't make sense to have a support representative that lives on the other side of the world, making collaboration difficult.
Likelihood to Recommend
We used Cisco WebEx Support to provide support and training to our clients. We produce software for specific industries and our clients are the users of that software. To be able to have sessions where we can look at their computer, and even take control of it through the session, to perform simple customer service, issue resolution, and even training is appreciated. The functionality was pretty solid for us. We did have an employee that used it to perform a demo on how the software was supposed to work. This was probably not the best possible method for performing the demonstration.
