Users also frequently commend its ease of use, high call quality, and robust security features like end-to-end encryption.

We use Webex Calling for collaboration between different teams internally and also for making calls to the outside world. It is a very good service from Cisco with wide variety of calling related features that are needed by any modern day enterprise. The customisation available with Webex Calling is very vast and it rides on Cisco's cloud infrastructure making maintenance very easy.
Pros
Internal calling can be done by searching user in directory or by dialing short code extensions for users. Pretty quick and easy to reach internal people.
Webex Calling integrated seamlessly with call recording solutions making it very useful for compliance call recording which is needed by customer service centres today.
Features like call forwarding, call transfer, conference, voice mail, etc are available.
User authorisation for different types of calls is available.
It provides basic call centre features as well so that companies requiring basic call centre features can use it within Webex Calling.
Cons
Webex Calling supports limited codecs that are generally accepted all over the world but it would be good to see if they add transcoding support.
The local gateway option is designed more for on premise PBX communication. It would be good to see if it is developed more as a local PSTN breakout where local SIP trunk or local PRI is terminated.
We would like to see more of the dial plan features like CLI manipulation, translation, etc.

My company used a legacy corporate telephone system, based on on-premises technology. We didn't have the flexibility to make or receive calls if we were out of the office. After adopting Webex Calling, we saw a significant improvement in the availability to answer calls at any time. I can make calls working from home or even using 5G mobile networks while maintaining quality.
Pros
Secure and end-to-end encrypted calls
Background noise removal
Integration with Microsoft Teams
Cons
Increase the range of compatible third-party telephone devices
Allow using legacy voice recorders (on-premise)
AI functionality support for other languages

Webex Calling is an ideal platform for companies that seek to professionalize hybrid work, looking for a sophisticated tool that provides reliability and security. Scenarios where the project requires integration with legacy SIP phones there is a difficulty in relation to the few models currently supported. Even older Cisco manufactured phones are not supported on the Multi-Tenant cloud platform.

I personally use Webex for recording short tutorials, 1:1 meetings with my supervisor, sharing information with colleagues, file sharing and constant communication with other team members.
Webex may not be appropriate if you have unstable connection. It causes lags in video calls, messages may take a while to be delivered, Audi during voice calls lag, it can be frustrating.
