Chose Webex Webinars
The thing that is mainly a major focus among the users is that Webex has a very good and stable solution that makes sure that there are no drops and no lag during the webinars, which is a must-have for large-scale connection, as per me . As well as it supports up to 1 lakh …
Chose Webex Webinars
The reason why we have Chosen Webex Webinars over others as it Supports up to 100,000 attendees in webcast mode and 10,000 in interactive sessions, making it ideal for large enterprises and global events . talking about the Zoom Events it has Maxes out at 50,000 attendees . …
Chose Webex Webinars
ON24 has a lot more bells and whistles, which is great when you need them but when you're looking for a straight up platform to host a stand alone webinar, Webex Webinars is a good alternative. We've selected Webex Webinars when we don't need such a customized webinar console.
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex is more effective in its capacity to integrate with other platforms and screen share in various ways. The transition between screen share and presenter view is slightly more clunky on the webex webinars but motion by sky road is much more limited overall. I recommend …
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Webinars has more features than Google Meet but it is costly compared to Google Meet.
Chose Webex Webinars
More user friendly and faster UI.
Chose Webex Webinars
I think it's more reliable, honestly. I've had a lot of issues with GoTo. People complain about it a lot. They have GoToMeeting, they have GoToWebinar, so they probably roughly align with the WebEx. But to me they're not. I've had fewer issues within the actual webinar with the …
Chose Webex Webinars
Microsoft Teams is a little more versatile than Webex Webinars since it used for video conferencing and collaboration, at least at first blush. However, as a hosting software for webinars, it's a little more finicky and a bit less intuitive to facilitate different media for …
Chose Webex Webinars
Each vendor determines which platform works best for their presentations. Each platform has its strengths and weaknesses. Teams is a memory hog that can often freeze up someone's computer because of bandwidth issues. Zoom has tons of bells and whistles and offers more than …
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Webinars has more customisation options than Zoom Webinars and allows a staggering 1,00,000 attendees in a webinar. It also provides detailed analytics after the webinar which helps us make informed decision and look for ways to increase our number of attendees and the …
Chose Webex Webinars
One of the main reason we chose Webex Webinar was because trainers like the in-webinar/training emoticons that stick next to a user's name on the participant panel. Other products just have the emoji's that pop up, but you can't easily tell who posted them. Those are important …
Chose Webex Webinars
Slightly easier set up for the end user for Webex Webinars. It doesn't require an account creation like ON24. That being said, ON24 has robust reporting and polling capabilities.
Chose Webex Webinars
WebEx has some advantages over Google Meet and Zoom. For instance, Google Meetin has a video meeting recording option only in the commercial version of the subscription. Zoom can record for up to 40 minutes only, which is not really suitable for a long-lasting event like …
Chose Webex Webinars
We have been using Webex webinar for a long time and we did not find a reason to change to other applications because of the kind of features it provides for a larger group like us.
Chose Webex Webinars
Zoom has updated and is gaining fast on Webex and lot user friendlier when it comes to break out rooms.
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Webinars is far superior than Teams. Teams is best suited for smaller Internal audience and if mid size and large would recommend Webex Webinars. Webex has. more features, analytics and reporting features that are good. Teams on the other hand is good for internal and …
Chose Webex Webinars
I think Webex is comparable to Zoom in features and quality. We chose it because we use the whole suite of Webex tools.
Chose Webex Webinars
There are some features that score above them but going for Webex was a management decision. The security feature of WebEx is what drove the decision. Most of the customers can join WebEx without any security concerns. Other applications have a lot of restrictions interns of …
Chose Webex Webinars
I enjoy the fact that it is very simple and easy to use when joining a meeting. You can see all sides and chat boxes with everyone who may share comments. I liked that you could easily create web conferences that are user-friendly. The options are available to schedule an event …
Chose Webex Webinars
Compared to other big-name video conferencing software, Webex Webinars stands out as it serves to cater to large events whereas the competition does not. Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Skype to name a few, have all garnered much attention due to the need for virtual meetings but …
Chose Webex Webinars
Webex Events is my choice to make events because it can afford more participants without losing audio and video quality. Webex Events is more professional, and with it, we can make high-level events like a Digital Summit. The users can use it without the need [for an] …
Chose Webex Webinars
We actually prefer MS teams as its now easier to chat; manage virtual backgrounds, better audio, and overall more features and tools. Given we actually use MS teams for daily meetings now, it led to us also using MS Events. As a result, we began to consolidate to only using MS …
Zoho Meeting
Chose Zoho Meeting
Zoom focuses on video webinars, meetings, chat options, integration, and high-definition video conferencing, whereas Microsoft Teams focuses on Microsoft integrations that include real-time video chat. Both Google Meet and Zoho Meeting offer various features, including HD video …
Chose Zoho Meeting
Zoho Meeting is very affordable and it suits better for the small business like ours. In addition to these, it offers the same features Microsoft Teams does. It has better adaptability compared to teams both in desktop and mobile applications. Moreover, it ensures data security …
Chose Zoho Meeting
Well, my organization gave my entire team access to Zoho Meeting post the reported security issues with Zoom. Once I started using this platform, I realized that it is way more agile and works the best as compared to all of its competitors. Other Zoho products like CRM, Home …
Chose Zoho Meeting
I have used Skype for business as well and I think Skype is far better than Zoho Meeting. The problem with Skype is it requires very high bandwidth to use as compared to Zoho Meeting.
Chose Zoho Meeting
Zoho Meeting serves the exact purposes stated by Zoho Team. It doesn't use any 3rd party applications for giving the services. It doesn't use the customers data for commercial purpose which by means ensures more data security. It can be used in web which doesn't require any …

Chose Zoho Meeting
• The IT department decided to change the service that we had previously because Zoho Meeting is much more complete and has several services that we are also using such as Zoho Mail and Zoho CRM. We prefer to use them all from the same service provider.
Chose Zoho Meeting
I think Zoho Meeting is lacking so many features when compared with other products. Most importantly they have to work on audio video quality and increasing room capacity. If we compare this with Zoom, they offers meetings up to 100 participants with their free package …
Chose Zoho Meeting
Went with Zoho based on prior experience.
Chose Zoho Meeting
Zoom is a better option if you're willing to pay. However, if you already have Zoho One, Meeting is still a solid choice. They're constantly working on the app and updating features, so any problems with Meeting will likely be addressed sooner rather than later. For now, Zoom …

I'd say mainly well suited for larger audiences. I think there's probably some products that are a little more economical for smaller audiences, but if you need a solid, reliable platform for larger audiences, say more than a hundred people. So this is the best product for that or at least top two.

I would definitely like to say that for a team lead who sends pie charts, surveys and questions to the teams, this software would be his best choice as the analytics of this all data by Zoho Meeting is one of the best in the market. The only downside of Zoho Meeting is its webinar pricing which could be a bit tough to pay for NGO's or less earning companies.

Pros
  • Cisco Webex Events is very straightforward and easy to use. Setting up an event within the platform is quite simple - anyone can do it.
  • Webex Events is a great add-on feature to the Webex conferencing platform to allow a one-way broadcast of information, rather than worrying about attendees being able to interrupt the presentation.
  • Recording a session is fairly simple and accessing the recordings post-event is quite reliable. I believe you can also upload .mp4 files into the Webex Events platform to serve as a host.

Cons
  • There always seems to be room for video quality improvement (not a necessity, but would be nice)
  • Mobile screensharing from iOS/Android (and other mobile) devices would be a great feature
  • The mobile app should be able to track meetings a user has been invited to, but does not do so (yet)
Read full review
  • One of the negative aspects of this service is that there is no user or meeting management when you are in one videoconference.
  • Another negative aspect of Zoho Meeting is that the chat and messaging option does not exist in the middle of a webinar or video conference.

Usability
My experience with this software is fantastic; it's so satisfying that it only took me a week to go through an internal training program to use this software, actually, I don't think this training program was necessary. Usability is one of the most fantastic features to guarantee the increase of members in remote events.

Performance
You can turn around WebEx Attendance reports within 24 hours. Sign in to Webex Site Administration and go to Reports - Access Anywhere. Select the beginning and ending dates for the report. Report data is available only for sessions conducted up to three months before the current date depending on your administration set-up. From the Sort results by drop-down list, select the sort order criteria for the report. After hosting a WebEx Webinar, you have the ability to create a report of all of the participants and the times that they entered and left the meeting. Reports cannot track emoji's or reactions. Best practice for Q&A and tracking you can integrate SLIDO. You cannot save individual polling results. Also the polling report does not include who asked and answered the questions. This limitation does not apply to SLIDO. Closed captions and transcriptions are only saved if the Webinar is recorded. If you face problems during a webinar, you can hit then button which creates and send a report to Cisco who will then look into the problems to avoid future occurrences
