The SaaS Advantage

Extend collaboration capabilities to users across your global enterprise.
Make WebEx solutions from Cisco part of your collaboration strategy and maximize your existing IT resources. WebEx delivers WebEx Connect and a full suite of web meeting applications as software-as-a-service (SaaS). When you use WebEx solutions, you’ll realize faster ROI because you can:

• Get started quickly, with no large upfront investment, and no hardware to buy.
• Count on enterprise-grade security, reliability, and performance.
• Leave maintenance and upgrades to us and free your IT organization to focus on strategic issues.
  
  

WebEx applications are quick and easy to deploy, and considerably less expensive to manage than traditional on-premise applications—for a much lower TCO. Take advantage of the opportunities offered by the WebEx SaaS delivery model to manage IT costs, gain economies of scale, and pay as you go.

Manage IT costs.
Get WebEx solutions without the overhead associated with implementing conventional software: purchasing and maintaining servers, housing them securely, and installing and maintaining the software. Refocus your efforts back to your IT organization’s core competencies, and on improving the day-to-day technical operations.

Gain economies of scale.
Take advantage of our substantial investment in software and technology infrastructure. Tap into WebEx SaaS solutions and leverage the economies of scale we achieve through millions of users worldwide. The Cisco-powered MediaTone^TM Network employs redundant architecture, and runs at a fraction of its total capacity, so WebEx applications scale seamlessly and efficiently—at a far lower cost.

Pay as you go.
There’s no hardware to buy, and no large capital outlays. Just a predictable, monthly subscription. Your subscription includes upgrades and enhancements—as well as training and support—so there’s no need for additional IT resources.

Free your organization from traditional software deployment—its hidden costs, high risks, and lengthy implementations. Give users throughout your enterprise a comprehensive, flexible platform and real-time collaboration solution that meets the needs of your extended organization. You can deploy WebEx solutions in weeks—compared to months for the typical on-premise application—for rapid return on investment.

Use WebEx SaaS solutions and free your organization from supporting high-cost, time-consuming IT functions as you:

• Avoid purchasing and supporting a server infrastructure to install and maintain applications.
• Eliminate the need to acquire and house redundant equipment to ensure security, reliability, and scalability.
• Let Cisco manage application maintenance and upgrades.

Get the most from your existing IT resources. Reclaim time spent troubleshooting third party software and focus on your organization’s core competencies, improving the day-to-day technical operations of your company. Rely on Cisco to maintain your WebEx applications on our robust, global MediaTone^TM infrastructure. Cisco enterprise networks provide the highest levels of security, reliability, redundancy, and network monitoring—as an extension of your own enterprise security.

Cisco works continually to improve your experience with WebEx solutions, provisioning maintenance and upgrades on a consistent schedule—so your users always have the latest capabilities. Take immediate advantage of these process improvements and increased functionality as part of your subscription. No need to wait years for upgrades—or delay new releases because of time, budgetary, or infrastructure issues.

Trust WebEx solutions to fit into your existing infrastructure. When you use WebEx meeting applications and WebEx Connect, you can take full advantage of the WebEx platform, with documented, accessible open APIs that follow industry-standard approaches.
