What is Cisco Webex Teams?
, including web Ex Teams, Web. Ex Meetings, and Web. Ex Devices, this suite merges the web conferencing platform and the Spark team collaboration tool from Cisco. With video meetings, file sharing, and team messaging, the suite allows for unified communications for any business from SMBs to enterprise-wide needs.
While we were writing we ran into the question “How much did Cisco pay for WebEx?”.
You see, 12 years after its founding, Web. Ex was acquired by Cisco for $3.2 billion despite only having $380 million in sales in what most described as a strategic move against Microsoft and an effort to compete with Share, and point.
You could be thinking “What types of meetings are supported by Cisco WebEx?”
, with web Ex, all meetings within a company can be supported by either Cisco Web. Ex Meetings or Web. Ex Teams apps. The product also supports deployments of Web. Ex Hybrid Services.
Is this intrusive behavior acceptable for Cisco WebEx?
This is intrusive behavior and is cause for concern, and is not acceptable for a company like Cisco or stable widely used app like Web, and ex. I couldn’t find any viable solutions online. So please revert at the earliest.
From the Connect to a devicetab, you can look for compatible video devices to pair with your Cisco Webex Meetingsdesktop app. You can connect to on-premises or cloud-registered video devices using the same steps.
What is WebEx Connect?
A powerful set of tools that keeps you connected before, during, and after the meeting.
So, for example, if someone directs a chat message to me, then Webex could flash the taskbar. But for mundane things like someone joining the meeting, don’t raise an alert for that. Webex meetings already have a menu option for preferences, so just add a user preference there to disable alerts for people who don’t want them.
What is wrong with WebEx?
Well after trawling webex support site (this was very well hidden) we finally found the issue and more importantly the fix. Visual distortions or a waffle screen during a desktop share on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system. Attendees see yellow crosshatched patterns during an application share.
Also, should WebEx put up alerts when someone joins a meeting?
As far as I’m concerned, Webex should not put up alerts at all unless it’s something which is directed specifically at me. So, for example, if someone directs a chat message to me, then Webex could flash the taskbar. But for mundane things like someone joining the meeting, don’t raise an alert for that.
Does the WebEx icon bring the taskbar to the front?
It seems like the Webex icon brings the taskbar to the front every time someone new starts to speak, someone joins the conference, etc. There is no need for alerts in any of those situations.
