Web Hosted Office Suites - WebEx: web hosted business solution
(Page 3 of 4 )
WebEx is a lot like Google Apps, but I think it offers more services for the price. There are many different options for the business owner or individual. Some may only want to take advantage of WebEx's remote support, where you may access your computer's desktop from any computer in the world, via the Internet. This service is currently being offered for as little as $9.95 per month. WebEx also offers a full suite of applications, much like the Google Apps Premier Edition, with a cost which is dependent upon the size of the business.
A new feature of WebEx is their pay-per-use feature. For those people who will occasionally need to host a meeting via the Internet, they have the option to due so on a per-minute basis. The current cost of this service is $0.33 per minute per participant, and this requires no contract or monthly charges.
WebEx is currently the leader in online meeting applications with a 64% market share. It's easy to see the benefit of an online meeting application when you consider the amount of costs which are saved through online meetings rather than meeting in person. One of the major cost-saving benefits is on travel expenses for global companies who meet with clients from around the world.
With over 3.5 million people using WebEx's services every month, it is easy to see that they are not just a fad. This is an established company which has been around since 1996, and I believe they will continue to grow. WebEx claims that their services are 100% safe and secure to use over the Internet. They say that online meetings and remote computer access is totally private, and that it is as safe as using your computer at home with traditional software.
