Product Description

Webex Events (formerly Socio) powers flexible, end-to-end virtual, in-person and hybrid event experiences—from multi-track conferences to tradeshows to networking events.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Event professionals trust Webex Events to power their event programs end-to-end, on a single platform. Our Event App (#1 on G2) is the most customizable on the market. Choose from over 1,000,000 icons, specify your colors, layout, and titles to match your brand.

Want happy sponsors? Banner ads, splash screens, and sponsor rooms are great, but if sponsors don’t understand actual event ROI, they are unlikely to partner again. That’s why we gather attendee touchpoints across your event lifecycle so sponsors have a real view of event ROI.

Webex Webinars is a scalable webinar platform that can create engaging and impactful experiences for everyone, from small sessions to massive global audiences. Manage the stage and content that your audience sees before, during, and after the event. Let attendees listen in their preferred language with live interpreters included in session. Dive deeper into topics or encourage connections with breakout sessions.

What do you like best about Webex?

We use Webex in our organization to communicate with our peers. It helps us organize and create tasks and be able to connect with one another at ease. The app has a great easy interface and allows you to have a flow of communication within your company . You can share files, messages and even search back in history of the chat by using keywords. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex?

I notice Webex can help you communicate better within your team at work and allows you to be more transparent. There wasn't much downside of using Webex , the only thing is if you're using Webex and want to have the communication on other devices you must install the app on each device as this is not cloud based. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Webex solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem of communication and connectivity, it allows you to get a hold of peers quicker for a more timely response .

Alternatively, it would be helpful if you could go back to the list after editing a singular attendee and be in the same location on the list as before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Webex Events & Webinars?

User-friendliness and overall layout of the app - easy to navigate. It is also relatively simple to build the app from the backend - you do not need a lot of tech experience to do so. Support is excellent - very responsive and friendly for the times you may get stuck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex Events & Webinars?

I would like some flexibility around the design in order to modernise it a little. Limitations with the banner specifications / styling (you can update the imagery and add in a logo but it just isn't quite right) as well as app background give the overall look of the app a dated feel. Would love some more freedom with footers and banners, and options to add in imagery and design elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Webex Events & Webinars solving and how is that benefiting you?

Like most businesses, we are conscious of our carbon footprint and so made the decision to move away from printed materials. the Webex event app provides a great platform and printed-program replacement, and is easy to use on mobile - especially now that we make the app public. We did encounter issues when the app was set to code or email address access - android phone users had a lot of issues being able to access the app when it was housed under the Webex events parent app, so we found making the app public was really our only choice.
