Webex review
Webex is Cisco's workplace collaboration app, combining video meetings, persistent team chat spaces, file sharing, whiteboarding and business phone calling in one place. It is mainly aimed at people whose company already runs on Webex, though anyone can use it to join a meeting from a link or host smaller meetings on a free account.
Day to day, most people open it to join a scheduled call: tap the link, pick audio and video settings, and you are in, with screen sharing, noise removal and adjustable layouts on hand. Between meetings, spaces work much like other team chat apps, with search across messages, people and files. If your office has Webex room hardware, the phone can pair with it to control meetings wirelessly. It also hooks into tools such as Salesforce and Box through integrations and bots.
Why we picked it: It puts meetings, chat and calling in one well-maintained app, with security features built for business use.
Watch out for: Many features, especially calling, depend on your organisation's plan and admin setup. The interface can feel busy if all you want is to join a call.
What we like
- Meetings, messaging and calling live in a single app
- Real-time translation and background noise removal in meetings
- Search across messages, files and people in all spaces
- Pairs with Webex room devices for wireless meeting control
- Integrations with business tools like Salesforce and Box
What could be better
- Business calling and some features require a company plan
- Lots of menus and options for casual users
- Android ratings run noticeably lower than iOS
Questions about Webex
Is Webex free?
The app is free to download and there is a free account tier. Paid Webex plans unlock longer meetings, more participants and business calling, and Google Play lists in-app purchases.
Do I need an account to join a meeting?
You can usually join a meeting from an invite link as a guest. An account is needed to host meetings or use messaging spaces.
Which platforms does it support?
Webex is available on iPhone, iPad and Android, plus desktop apps and a browser version, so you can switch devices easily.
How does it handle security?
Cisco promotes Webex as built for business use with end-to-end encryption support. Exact protections depend on how your organisation configures it.
What are the alternatives?
Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet cover similar ground. Webex makes the most sense if your workplace already uses Cisco tools.
