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 Events & Webinars?

Large Audience Support: Can host thousands of attendees (up to 100,000 with Webex Webinars).

Presenter/Panelist Control: Organizers can assign roles (host, cohost, presenter, panelist) and control who can speak or share content.

Registration and Invitations: Supports attendee registration, including custom questions and approval workflows.

Q&A and Polling: Facilitates real-time interaction through moderated Q&A, live chat, and polls.

High-Quality Audio/Video: Optimized for high-quality streaming and content sharing (presentations, screen sharing, videos).

Recording and Analytics: Events can be recorded for on-demand viewing, and detailed analytics are available for attendance and engagement tracking.

Branding Options: Customizable registration pages and event emails to match your organization’s look and feel.

The customer support is outstanding—responses typically come within 30 minutes or less.

The platform itself is incredibly user-friendly. Even team members with no prior experience have been able to log in and navigate confidently within minutes.

I use the platform multiple times a month for a variety of events, and it’s seamlessly integrated into our regular event schedule. It’s brought a much-needed refresh to our previous virtual event format, enhancing both efficiency and engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex Events & Webinars?

Small meetings or team collaboration (better handled by Webex Meetings).

Highly interactive sessions where all attendees need equal participation (again, Webex Meetings or other collaboration tools would be better). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Managing Large Audiences Effectively

Without the right platform, hosting thousands of attendees can be chaotic. Webex Events supports high-capacity attendance while maintaining performance and control.

Lack of Structure in Virtual Presentations

Many platforms struggle with managing roles during large events. Webex allows clear role assignments—hosts, cohosts, presenters, panelists—ensuring the event runs smoothly and professionally.

Limited Engagement Tools

Keeping attendees engaged virtually is tough. Webex addresses this with integrated Q&A, chat, and polling to promote interaction and feedback in real time.

Cumbersome Event Registration

Manual or disorganized registration is inefficient. Webex offers customizable registration with approval workflows, making it easy to manage and track attendees.

Branding Inflexibility

Many platforms offer generic experiences. Webex lets you customize event pages and emails to maintain your brand presence.

Post-Event Follow-Up Challenges

Without recordings and analytics, post-event impact is hard to measure. Webex provides both, enabling on-demand viewing and insights into attendee engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Webex?

The ease of using the platform. Kind of like Zoom, but a lot easier to navigate. Easy to connect and collaborate with others on this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex?

In some business meetings, when someone posts a link for everyone, instead of pinning the links automatically, they continue to scroll down as the conversation in chat proceeds, which causes you to miss a lot, having to scroll back and find a link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I often use this platform when joining interviews or attend office meetings when working from home. It helps me to collaborate with my team with ease as well as obtain shared visuals by my peers and instructors. Has amazing video quality and rarely has issues for me for the most part. It does however tend to lag a bit after sending quite a few links through group chat during a group video meeting. Some of my peers were even booted from the call altogether having to re-login to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Webex Events & Webinars?

Webex Events offers a perfect balance between simplicity and powerful features. I had the opportunity to organize a straightforward event and was impressed by how intuitively I could tailor all available options to my needs. Everything, from registration to live interactions, was easy to customize without requiring advanced technical skills. The platform’s reliability and flexibility made the entire experience stress-free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex Events & Webinars?

While the overall experience is excellent, the platform is not fully optimized for organizers accessing it via an iPhone. Some functionalities are harder to manage on mobile, and it feels better suited to desktop use. Additionally, I encountered a small bug related to the Purchase of Tickets badge. The support team was responsive, quickly opened a ticket, and assured me they would inform me once the issue is resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It makes it incredibly easy to organize and manage events without requiring complex technical knowledge. It solves the problem of setting up a professional, interactive event with minimal effort and ensures a smooth experience for both organizers and attendees. It has allowed me to focus more on the content and engagement rather than the logistics, saving time and increasing the overall quality of my events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Webex?

What I like most about Webex is its stability and quality in video calls, even with not-so-good connections. The interface is intuitive, and its features for screen sharing, recording meetings, and using virtual backgrounds make remote work much easier and more professional. Additionally, the integration with other tools enhances productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex?

What I don't like about Webex is that, compared to other platforms, its resource consumption is sometimes high, which can slow down less powerful devices. Additionally, its design can feel a bit rigid or outdated in certain sections, and the automatic updates sometimes interrupt the workflow without prior notice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Webex solves the problem of remote communication and collaboration, allowing teams to work together no matter where they are. This benefits me by giving me the ability to connect with colleagues, clients, or suppliers in real time, share ideas, files, and make decisions quickly, all from one place. It saves time, reduces travel costs, and keeps the workflow constant and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Webex?

I like the breakout rooms feature very much. It allows you to quickly and seamlessly switch between large meetings into smaller working groups for more efficient collaboration. I like some of the virtual backgrounds that they offer. I also like that it syncs with my calendar and shows all my meetings in one view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex?

I dislike the user interface. It is overloaded, over complicated and overly complex. I hate the meeting joining experience. It asks me to check a box and accept their T&C every single time before joining a meeting. I hate the views available when you're on a call. Things that shouldn't take up the whole screen space always ends up taking it. It is not even easy to adjust the size of the window to my liking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I quite honestly can't think of any. The audio and video quality has improved and it remembers my default settings finally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 . You can shoot a message and get your response immediately as where you would wait for an email reply if you opted to email your peers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The support team is very responsive and takes a step-by-step approach to help you resolve issues you may encounter. I really appreciate the chat functionality instead of having to write long email threads and wait days and days for a response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex Events & Webinars?

I dislike the fact that there is no way to have a holistic view of an event agenda while you are creating it. You need to make back and forths between your webEx interface and your live page. Also, I would like to be able to make changes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

A one-stop shop platform with registrations, event content all in the same place. It has helped us not having to manage several platforms at the same time which saves us a lot of hassle and time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Webex Events & Webinars?

I'm grateful for a dedicated support team to guide me through the mobile app/webapp milestones. I look to them for their expert advice on the capabilities of the program as well as their willingness to address the specific needs of my organization with regards to the app. So far, we've been happy with the WebEx events and the ease with which our attendees/users can download and utilize all that the app has to offer for our Convention. Also, the program easily integrated with our registration and program lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Webex Events & Webinars?

While the majority of the functions of the event app/webapp have been helpful for my team, sometimes my events need a more customized functionality that isn't available on the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

WebEx Events is solving our need of having one location where our users can access all the information needed for our conference. Speaker information, posters, program at a glance, exhibits and sponsor information are all in one conventient place! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
