What’s New in Webex Meetings?
As companies across the globe continue to invest more into collaboration and remote working tools, solutions like Cisco Webex Meetings are more popular than ever. Not to be outdone by competitors like Microsoft and Slack, Cisco recently announced a barrage of updates to its Meetings service. The September 2020 update includes a range of new things to explore, including simpler meeting controls, and new virtual background options.
The latest changes to the Webex Meetings platform promise users a more intuitive way to meet with their colleagues and share ideas. There’s a new centralised meeting lobby for administrators, and automatic locking features to prevent people from entering the conversation too late.
