Cisco has released its latest blog of Webex updates, with new features spanning audio, transcription and virtual events.
We've rounded up the highlights here.
Platform Updates
Webex revealed a number of product and feature updates across its UC platform, spanning audio, translation, virtual backgrounds, user engagement, and analytics. In audio, a new setting allows users to optimise sound to cater for all voices in a meeting. Specifically, this levels audio for people in meeting rooms that may be sitting different distances away from microphones. Webex dubs this ‘audio intelligence’ and demonstrated it in a video on YouTube. Visually, Webex has added a host of new animated and static images, while users can also create their own images using image, GIF or MP4 files. Webex also expanded its existing translation and transcription services, with 13 additional languages now available. This takes the total up to more than 100. A full list of supported languages can be found here.

The build-in Slido experience has also been given a makeover, with polls, quizzes and Q&As redesigned. Users can enable the fresh look in the sidebar menu before a meeting starts. The poll template library has also been redesigned. IT admins can now customise their own analytics dashboard using the Webex Control Hub. Charts and KPIs from the Control Hub’s library can also be implemented.
HubSpot Integration
Webex revealed a new integration with HubSpot which means meetings can be scheduled within HubSpot without having to switch between applications. The integration automatically inserts a Webex link into HubSpot meetings and covers the sending of email invites and calendar updates.
