Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Support and helpdesk inefficiency

high support

Customer service is extremely difficult to reach and resolve issues with. Users report having to send multiple emails to sort out problems, burning significant time and energy. No direct phone support is available, forcing all communication through slow email channels.

Since they took over TextLocal the service has been terrible. Everything has to go through Webex interact, no one to talk to, which in itself is a horrible process and you burn time and energy trying to resolve absolutely anything.

trustpilot

It is hell to discuss with helpedesk (1 zillion emails to sort a problem out when and if they sort it out).

2

Initial training and learning curve

medium training

The platform requires some initial training to navigate effectively due to complexity in the user interface. Organizations should budget time and resources for employee onboarding on the system.

3

Mid-contract price escalation

critical addon

Users report that Cisco/Webex changes pricing terms mid-contract, requiring additional payments to maintain existing functionality. One user reported an unexpected $400/year increase after signing a multi-year contract.

no i absolutely do not recommend webex or cisco , you sign a contract for 3 years and then they change the goal post , to have what you currently have will now cost you another 400 a year …they are shameful .

4

Hidden cancellation process

high support

The subscription cancellation process is deliberately obscured and not available in the main account page. Users must navigate through the help section to find a dedicated URL for cancellation, making it difficult to stop auto-renewals.

trustpilot

it was impossible to find the page to stop auto-renawal because it is NOT in the main page (you have to go through the help section as it has a dedicated url!).
