Overall Satisfaction with Webex Webinars

I use it to manage online meetings with both internal staff and external non-department staff. I have also used it to conduct and record training.

Pros

  • Automated captioning
  • Ability to edit the captioning
  • Easy ability to allow others to share their screen
  • Easy ability to mute others

Cons

  • A password protected webex required to manually type in the password vs. copy/paste
  • I wish there was a way to pause a recorded webex and restart the recording without being two separate recordings
  • Meetings have allowed recording of conversations for later reference
  • Meetings allowed for clarification of project objectives
  • Recordings have allowed to use it as a training tool, huge time savings
I think Webex is comparable to Zoom in features and quality. We chose it because we use the whole suite of Webex tools.
