Overview
Webex App is a cloud-based business collaboration service that allows employees to message, meet, and call instantly in order to strengthen relationships and increase productivity.
Webex App combines mobile devices and other communications tools to provide instant communications and live meetings to ensure a professional and effective collaboration experience.
The table describes the main Webex App features:
Messaging | Business messaging allows users to prepare, share, and repeat content, and it facilitates one-on-one or team messaging facilities in virtual rooms. |
Meeting | Connect teams and meet customers easily with the added benefits of messaging and content sharing before, during, and after a meeting. |
Call | The service enables voice and video communications via mobile, desktop, and room-based devices. Connect your existing PSTN1 services to Webex App to enjoy one-touch directory dialing and join meetings from anywhere on any device. Mobile users get features such as single number reach, single voicemail service, video services, and the ability to seamlessly move between devices during a call. |
Note
Configure a specific Subscription for organizations with multiple License Subscriptions, in other words where there is a single organization with more than one entitlement for a specific license, such as "Messaging".

If a Webex Teams User Template is not selected from the drop-down, selection falls back to the Webex Teams User Template referenced in the associated Quick Add Subscriber Groups. If you want customized values, clone the Webex Teams User Template (via Customizations > Configuration Templates), and edit as required. |
