Webex App review

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My organization uses the Webex App to facilitate fast and efficient collaboration needs. Whether on a desktop or mobile, the Webex app gets the job accomplished. The Webex App easily integrates with our phone system, as well. The Control Hub dashboard allows for easy configuration from anywhere. No VPN connection is necessary.

Pros

  • Instant messaging.
  • Integration with the Webex Calling and CUCM phone systems.
  • Easy configuration and integration with Webex peripheral devices.

Cons

  • Smoother integration with non-Cisco devices and software.
  • Better sign-in process.
  • More customization options.

Likelihood to Recommend

The Webex App is well suited for organizations who need on-the-go collaboration tools available wherever they are situated. The ability to be at a desk/laptop and then switch over to the Webex App right where you left off is a huge selling point. There is no interruption when switching between the desktop and mobile apps. It's a very convenient experience.

Every Contact Center's Best Friend: Cisco Jabber

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Cisco Jabber as a substitute for physical desk phones at the office. We used to use Cisco IP Phone's (the classic 7942 if my memory serves me right), but they were limiting the user mobility. For example, the users could not answer their phone if they were not present at their desk, or in the office. Therefore we switched to a more mobile solution such as Jabber on a global scale.

Pros

  • Provides user mobility to work from anywhere
  • Seamless integration with other Cisco products, such as Finesse
  • Easy to configure from a user-admin perspective

Cons

  • Stability depends on internet connection more than it needs to
  • Using different tools for almost the same purpose(collaboration) is not user-friendly. Maybe a super product combining WebEx and Jabber features could be an option.
  • Expensive pricing and pricing model for big organizations (per license)

Likelihood to Recommend

Cisco Jabber is a well-suited app to answer and make calls from your computer. Compared to the technologies we have been using, namely desk phones, it provides you the mobility that the way we currently work (Hybrid/Remote) demands due to the pandemic. The only requirement on the user side is to have a quality headset and a laptop, and you're good to go! Also from a business continuity point of view, if you are running a business where customers are calling your contact center, Cisco Jabber is the perfect solution to go to. In case of any natural disasters affecting your main-office, your customer service representatives can take customer calls from the comfort of their home. However, to be considered as a well-round collaboration tool, Cisco Jabber needs more features. Competitor apps like Teams now both have the functionality of applications such as Webex Meetings and Jabber together, making it much easier to use only one tool for both purposes and I believe Cisco can do the same with Webex and Jabber.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In the past, we used other solutions for face-to-face training. We allocated specific equipment and physical space for training. Now with Webex, we can virtually train our teams, cutting down on costs.

Pros

  • Team collaboration
  • Immediate communication

Cons

  • Features & accessories
  • Improved documentation and manuals
  • Better compatibility with IOS

Likelihood to Recommend

Webex Teams is best suited for organizations where small teams are using the product. It's less suitable for large teams with many users.

Cisco Webex Teams - Clean, Modern and User-Friendly Professional Video Conference Solution

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it as a collaboration platform mainly focused on video conferences. It is used by the whole organization and it helps to reduce travel expenses and give a huge boost to transversal collaboration in the whole organization. IT Staff was always worried about having all the VideoConference infraestructure up and ready and with Webex Cloud-as-a-Service aproach, was so easy to support our VC needs as an organization with a relative small IT staff.

Pros

  • Video conferences are fast and easy with a "push the big green button" approach.
  • Enables me to create collaboration spaces quickly and easily.
  • It's closely integrated with third-party collaboration solutions like Microsoft Office 360.
  • Video communication has been improved enabling one-to-one video communication without any IT staff involved.
  • Enabling easy to use multi-site video conferencing.
  • Wireless pairing synchronization (proximity) is a superb feature.

Cons

  • Screen sharing with IOS can be tricky and has been known to crash.
  • Outlook calendar integration is so tricky that almost allway need to have specialized IT staff to support it
  • Chat GUI is not as intuitive as competitors

Likelihood to Recommend

Webex is great for a distributed organization with a lot of locations and a lot of branch offices even with best effort wan links. It is well suited for small IT Staff organization cause de Cloud-as-a-Service aproach significantly reduces the OPEX budget. It has a kind of tricky old-fashion GUI what makes difficult to use to new users.

A Review of Cisco Jabber

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We utilized Jabber across our entire organization with my past employer. Jabber served as an efficient platform for establishing messages as well as connecting seamlessly to all of our work schedules, cell phones, and e-calendars. It was useful for identifying if co-workers were at work that particular day or in a meeting or maybe even just away from their computer for a bit.

Pros

  • If individuals work for your company, their name and title is shown, as well as recent transactions you've had with them. In a dynamic environment such as the one I was employed, it was very organized and beneficial.
  • A strength of Jabber would be the integration involving alternate services a business might provide. It lets coworkers know if you are presenting a PowerPoint slide show by flashing "In Presentation Mode" which lets colleagues know not to message you at that time.
  • Everything works pretty smoothly and without a hitch. Another strength of Jabber is that it's been around long to enough to have many of the bugs and kinks worked out.

Cons

  • I'd kind of like to see Jabber become fully cloud-based. When I utilized the program, it was mainly a separate item on our system. While this wasn't necessarily a setback, it mainly had an overall aesthetic of a more dated technology.
  • The Jabber app doesn't store credentials for logging in when I sign on. Basically every time I would re-open the app I would have to re-type my log-in info. It made me a little more hesitant to use the app on the road.
  • I would also have liked to see file transfer somehow be sped-up. Transferring of files is pretty simple to locate on Jabber, but the wait time is a bit of a drag and sometimes it even fails. Some improvement could be made in this regard.

Likelihood to Recommend

In a corporate atmosphere, Jabber is a legitimate and helpful chat platform. Integration is key here for synching with other Cisco programs and video/phone systems, and the desktop application is versatile. I enjoyed the concept of being able to share my desktop or start up a group WebEx meeting. "Active Directory Integration" makes it simple to locate coworkers and organize business department employees into set groups. If integrated into your phone system, Jabber is beneficial in viewing missed calls in a timely fashion. The reminders received about upcoming WebEx meetings are beneficial and Jabber also reminds you to launch them via the pop-up alert system. In all, I feel Cisco Jabber is a pretty complete package.

WebEx Teams is the Best Business Collaboration Platform Around.

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

WebEx Teams was purchased to be used as a company-wide collaboration platform. We are excited about the new features and will be rolling it out to our entire organization staring in March. Our previous rollout was slow for user adoption but with the new features and integration into our Call Manager solution we are expecting a much larger user adoption.

Pros

  • WebEx Teams provides an easy to use platform for users to quickly start communicating. The search option is easy to use to find other employees and start a quick one on one chat.
  • Setting up Teams and Spaces is easy and allow the end users to control access. IT does not need to be involved .
  • Starting a group chat is a simple as click a couple of buttons. From there you can easily start a group call and share screens

Cons

  • WebEx Teams need better integration in to Active Directory so that AD groups can be created to automate WebEx Teams and membership.
  • The WebEx Control Hub that is used to manage users and setting for WebEx Teams need to be updated. The UI is a bit clunky and navigation is mediocre at best.
  • WebEx Teams needs to add the ability for admins of the Control Hub to see all teams and spaces and also be moderators of all teams and spaces.

Likelihood to Recommend

WebEx Teams is very well suited for any organization that is geographically spread and is looking for better communication. Some features do rely on Cisco Unified Communications Manager so please take this into consideration. User adoption is always the biggest hurdle but with proper planning the roll out could be smooth and users will wonder why they have not been using this forever.

Jabber - A No-Brainer!

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Jabber is an easy to use yet powerful IM/VOIP/screen share solution that speeds communication and provides instant context on fellow co-workers' location and status.

Pros

  • Presence, very easy to use, shows up in Outlook, easy to set from any device.
  • Core IM is great, simple and pretty to look at.
  • Softphone is awesome compared to having a deskphone, freedom!

Cons

  • Ability to set presence before leaving the office and having it stick (i.e. on vacation instead of switching to offline).

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited for any Cisco VOIP environment, a no brainer.

Jab for all office Gabs

Rating: 7 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Jabber across the organization as a whole. The main problem Jabber is addressing for us is bridging the gap between staff that is in the field and staff that is in office, as well as just improving inner office communication. The most beneficial use of Jabber that we have been using is to connect our survey crews that are on client sites with project managers. We are using Jabber across multiple devices using file sharing, video, voice and chat. It is making a huge difference in the efficiency of sharing valuable site information in real-time. While we are still getting everyone into the habit of adopting this new system, we know it will be a game changer for our company.

Pros

  • Connecting various devices - Jabber connects PC, Mac, Mobile and Tablet users where end users can communicate seamlessly.
  • Presence - having Jabber integrated into Outlook has made client and inner office communications easier and provides more information to fellow users when we can see who is in a meeting, away, or busy.
  • File Sharing- inner office file sharing we have been doing through Jabber instead of email. It can very quickly process and send large files between users without bogging down our inbox, this is especially useful when collaborating on documents.
  • Communication Escalation- at any time when using Jabber there is an option to take your communication to the next level, being able to quickly and easily escalate a chat to a group chat, a group chat to a WebEx, sharing screens- it makes communicating easy through various mediums.

Cons

  • The back end of Jabber and creating the proper profiles in CUCM can be frustrating. Often the solution is easy e.g.: "check this box or uncheck this box" however actually finding these areas in the CUCM profiles can be difficult. Also, the setup is not always straight forward, one profile could have certain settings and the next could have completely different settings and they both work. It makes trouble shooting a little difficult.
  • Mobile app - When using the Jabber app and using video if you need to swipe between screens you lose the video window to see the chat window. It would be useful if the video screen would shrink down and be visible the entire time you are on the call.
  • Share screen - sharing screens between MAC and Windows users is not possible with just the Jabber client, you must make it a WebEx in order to receive full functionality.

Likelihood to Recommend

It really depends on the size of the company and the perceived need for the product. Smaller companies can get away with using free clients such as the features that Google offers. The company also needs to have a majority of people that are adaptable, while using Jabber was second nature to me, other users of older generations have a difficult time understanding the purpose of this product and as a result have a hard time adapting it. If the company has a large portion of people that are in and out of the office on a regular basis Jabber's mobile app is a HUGE selling point. This was one of the biggest selling points in our decision.
