Cisco’s CEO was on Cramer today, and he dropped 2 stats about Webex usage:
- April’s Webex “volume” was 3x February (not sure what volume means)
- Webex had 500m meeting attendees in Feb (not really sure what that means either)
There was also some dialogue around how security was a top priority for them.
Cisco released earnings today too but I only see 1 tiny mention of Webex in their press release.
FWIW as relates to Zoom. Cheers.

Pretty much a direct attack on ZM who has been commenting on these areas:
-
Volume increase probably mentioned just to point out that they, too, are doing more than last month. Though Zoom is over 30x more, so an order of magnitude more.
-
Zoom crossed 300M average daily participants a couple weeks ago, I think it was. This is a count of every meeting’s attendees count. E.g. if I am in 6 meetings during my day I get counted 6 times (a real average for me).
-
The comment about security being a top priority is another obvious one.
…None of this speaks to paid vs unpaid memberships of course.
