Cisco WebEx Meeting Center

Developer’s description: Cisco WebEx Meeting Center on the iPhone brings meetings in motion to a new reality; with this application, Cisco WebEx meetings can be taken wherever you are, wherever you go. This unique collaboration experience makes full use of the device and network capabilities allowing users to join audio, view presentations and chat intuitively on the familiar iPhone. The application uses Apple’s intuitive and familiar touch screen capabilities where hosts can “pass the ball” from one presenter to the next – right from their iPhones. With a flick of the wrist, users can transfer their WebEx meeting from the iPhone to a PC seamlessly using the Meeting Handoff feature. Even if users lose cellular connection, the WebEx audio systems automatically calls you back and reconnects you. Users can also join a meeting by entering the WebEx meeting number within the app. In addition, users can “step out of meetings,” check out if there are other meetings to join and switch from one to the other with one simple tap. By extending the capability to the iPhone, Cisco is making web conferencing truly mobile and providing workers with access to their corporate applications on the go. No longer bound to their desktops, employees will be able to work wherever and whenever they wish, using the device of their choice. This freedom gives workers the ability to collaborate quickly and easily to get business decisions made faster.

Pros: You don’t need a laptop to join a WebEx meeting. All you need is your iPhone.

Cons: Mute controls and so on are not in the application; you must exit and use the iPhone controls.
