WebEx Meeting Center Voted CNET 2002 Editors' Choice by CNET
April 19 , 2002

"WebEx Meeting Center grabs first prize among the Web Conferencing apps in this roundup because of its versatility. This package offers powerful presentation and conferencing capabilities that cater to a business of any size. For a nominal fee, you get all the tools you need to observe and interact with presentations and documents and chat with the presenter and other participants in real time. Most important, WebEx provides a relatively inexpensive way to bring people together to share ideas. No other Web Conferencing utility we reviewed offers so much flexibility at such a good price."

Aberdeen Group
“WebEx has pulled away to become the leader in multimedia business communications. And the switched network infrastructure approach—uniquely in MediaTone—is architecturally the only way to provide the greatest security, assure service quality, and deliver “dial tone” reliability,” Peter Kastner, chief research officer at Aberdeen Group. “Aberdeen believes that these new WebEx MediaTone capabilities cannot be delivered using older database centric store-and-forward technology relied on by competitive vendors.”

"All Web conferencing suppliers deliver their services over the Internet — i.e., the “Web” in Web conferencing. And, because the Internet as a communications transport mechanism is a common denominator, the simple deduction is that all Web conferencing companies deliver the same quality level of service. The deduction is wrong in the case of WebEx, because the company has deliberately built a utility-grade private wide area network (WAN) tied to the Internet. The competition has not."

Collaborative Strategies
“WebEx has addressed both the network and platform issues that until now have largely held back widespread deployment of rich media communication services,” Lewis Ward, senior research analyst at Collaborative Strategies. “Inclusion of MediaTone enabled sharing capabilities will provide a richer more engaging experience.”

"The WebEx Interactive Network provides strict control over reliability, QoS, and security, as opposed to other services that use only the Internet infrastructure. WebEx has hundreds of multimedia communication switches deployed at data centers around the globe, a number that is constantly increasing. The network features redundant high-speed dedicated lines, traffic routers, back-up power, and 24x7 monitoring."

Patricia Seybold Group
“WebEx is now delivering its MediaTone technology based multimedia communication services that, like the telephone, we will rapidly incorporate into the fabric of our daily work activities,” Geoffrey Bock, senior consultant at Patricia Seybold Group. “It is finally bringing our expectations of the telephony revolution into the age of digitized, multimedia, real-time communications.”

"WebEx aggregates collections of WebEx Information Switches into individual zones, and specific zones into separate domains, in order to create the WebEx Network. This privately-managed subnet provides guaranteed quality of service that is worldwide in scope and continually extensible."

IDC
"IDC believes that MediaTone and the WebEx Interactive Network (WIN) it powers is an example of the kind of "guarantee" that conferencing vendors and service providers need to make to customers, " Robert Mahowald, senior analyst at International Data Corporation (IDC). "Among all the other differentiators, the ability to provide dial tone-like quality of service assurances is part of what will take Web conferencing to new heights."

"At first glance, the cost of developing Web conferencing products seems low. A few employees writing code can write a Web application server to store and share limited forms of information. The true barriers to entry in the market are indeed far higher. Especially for
vendors seeking to serve the marketplace as global communications service providers. Worldwide reach and reliability require a global network with peering agreements, impeccable code, built-in security, high scalability, rich functionality, and an army of client service
representatives to meet the standard for 24 x 7 service that is increasingly expected of conferencing service providers."

Wainhouse Research
“WebEx's latest UCF content delivery technology when combined with their MediaTone switched network architecture raise the capabilities of rich media Web collaboration to a new level,” Andy Nilssen, senior analyst and partner at Wainhouse Research. “As a direct result, for example, PowerPoint builds and animations are not only supported, the performance is very impressive.”

Frost & Sullivan
“In the early stages no one had imagined the impact of touchtone technology on telephone communications and the number of value added services and entire application sectors that it would enable,” David Alexander, industry analyst for communications and IT at Frost & Sullivan. “MediaTone will have a significant impact on the real-time Web communications industry and enable services we can not imagine today. WebEx is already the market leader, and with the new MediaTone enabled WebEx Meeting Center they have significantly extended the leadership in functionality, security and reliability.”
