    is it any better then Zoom?

      no

      Far better, based on my experience with both

      garbage signup process compared to zoom, but once its up and running, its better than zoom

      Dread having to use WebEx. I've even had WebEx's with Cisco and they were struggling hearing each other. Was on the verge of asking them to swap to Zoom. Not saying there's not a combination of conditions that makes it work well - but after trialling WebEx, Hangouts, Zoom and Skype Business, Zoom was the only one that wasn't frustrating.

      • superseijin on 23/03/2020 - 15:21

        WebEx is much better than Zoom, GoToMeeting and Skype when setup correctly. The TP units are awesome as well.

            @John Kimble: i love my Cisco Toilet Paper, licensed per user per wipe per month

      • bunnybash on 23/03/2020 - 19:47

        I agree but I found hangouts meet a very close second to zoom. Hangouts meet integrates really well into Google suite.

        • Janko on 26/03/2020 - 13:57

          I've heard Hangouts has improved a bit since the 2 years ago we put all four through their paces.

        Infinite upvotes. I just don't understand how this mistake gets made. Listen to what you're saying and spell it that way.

        • xylarr on 24/03/2020 - 08:30

          Sorry, bit triggered :)

    • Tyrx on 23/03/2020 - 19:02

      Not even close - Zoom was established by an ex-Cisco employee because he knew Cisco video conferencing software is known to be a colossal turd in the industry. The only people I've known who pushed Webex are individuals who are employed to help support the "Cisco ecosystem". Users will do everything they can to avoid using Webex in particular - Cisco simply doesn't understand what users want.

  • punkindrublic on 23/03/2020 - 12:14

    I think there's a delay in receiving the verification email to actually sign in and use the product - I tried signing up last night and again now, and nothing's come through

    does webex have the server capacity to support this?

    • CBrads4 on 23/03/2020 - 12:23
      +3

      I sure hope so because we use this for work frequently, even more so now people are isolating. Let's hope they know their capacity.

      Cisco wouldn't put this up if it didn't.

      As someone who uses it for work every day.. It's only semi reliable even when you're paying a lot of money for it.. I wouldn't expect much from the free version. If you don't have any other option though… yay?

    May I also add this: Obtaining an Emergency COVID-19 AnyConnect License (duration: 13 weeeks) (hardware support: Classis ASA 5505 to 5585 only)

    • AlexF on 23/03/2020 - 14:20

      People use ASA at home?

      • superseijin on 23/03/2020 - 15:23
        +1

        It's so a company can stand up an ASA VPN head-end so you can VPN from home to the company.

        Cisco's offering anyconnect licensing which works on all Cisco ASA and Firepower hardware platforms.

        • AlexF on 23/03/2020 - 17:32

          So, this is for a company that owns an ASA/FTD but isn't currently using it as RA VPN Gateway? If no previous business case for AnyConnect, why not just set up OpenVPN now, and keep it?

    I've signed up to WebEx last week (on 17 Mar) and I'm pretty sure the free personal account already has

    • Unlimited usage
    • Supports up to 100 participants
    • Offers toll dial-in

    Still ended up uninstalling it and moving to Zoom because it's just what other people I need to communicate use.

    It might take them some time to activate the account:

      Yes - I did this last week and took 4 hours to configure tenant so don't wait if you need it desperately!

  • sub102 on 23/03/2020 - 13:49

    Instructions to get it? Do you just 'sign up free' or is there something to download?

  • netjock on 23/03/2020 - 13:58

    Only support 540p because 720p would break the internet given everyone is on Netflix in HD etc?

    • Naigrabzo on 23/03/2020 - 14:13

      I don't know HD is but my prime is in 4K. It's zooming around and absolutely viral.

    • superseijin on 23/03/2020 - 15:25

      Where did you see that? I'm sure it supports 720p.

      • netjock on 23/03/2020 - 17:05
        -1

        Joke that if anything over 720p will break the internet. Google: EU pleads with Netflix to decrease resolution to avoid internet breaking.

  • congo on 23/03/2020 - 15:24

    What kind of upload speed do we need for web meetings?
    My Telstra cable has poor upload speed (1Mbps to 5Mbps) and may need to change to a better one.
    Is 100 down/40 up good enough for HD video and stereo audio?

    • leTintin on 23/03/2020 - 17:36

      I would have thought 5mbps enough for HD, you could upload a number of Full HD streams at once with 40mbps.

    • pollambo on 23/03/2020 - 18:05
      +1

      measured it today, about 8mbps for HD video, audio, and screen sharing.

      100/40 is plenty.

      i would recommend everyone use the 'dial me' or 'dial in' feature, works quite well and use the application for just screen sharing/video. prevents the audio from crapping out if NBN does choke on you

  • kjhooker on 23/03/2020 - 15:46

    Best Conference tool for free!! yeah no issue running on my Cable!

  • HappyXD on 23/03/2020 - 16:06

    Literally just had to use it for a work call. Was quite ass.

  • victorheaven on 23/03/2020 - 18:22

    Ever since last week, dialing into the Webex meeting on 02 9037 0069 is giving you the "Congested" message.

    Today I tried 15 times to get into a meeting, this deal is not gonna help.

    • sanmigueelbeer on 24/03/2020 - 08:54

      dialing into the Webex meeting on 02 9037 0069 is giving you the "Congested" message.

      Get Webex to call you instead.

      • victorheaven on 24/03/2020 - 10:10

        hmm, how does this work exactly?

        • sanmigueelbeer on 24/03/2020 - 11:03
          +1

          You will get a link to "Join".
          Either using an app or web browser, you will be given an option how do you want the audio to be piped in.
          If you choose phone, there's an option to enter your phone number. Once the "leader" signs in, Webex will call you.

  • gentlecrack on 23/03/2020 - 19:11

    This has started affecting Corporate WebEx, looks like their telephony network is choked.

  • gregsurname on 23/03/2020 - 19:26

    How does this compare to MS Teams?

    • tap on 23/03/2020 - 20:11

      Webex teams is not really like ms teams. Besides the chat function ms teams is more like a classroom management tool with embedded onenotes, assignments and rubrics. Webex teams is more about communication with video, chat and screen sharing.

      • debo on 23/03/2020 - 20:40

        my work using ms teams for video, chat and screen sharing. works great and easy to use.

    Already free for vic education. Just sign in using your edumail/education and TO#.

    Used it this afternoon for a meeting with about 150 staff. Worked pretty well to be honest.
