Forget the New Normal. Experience a New Difference With The All New Webex

Dec 16, 2020 — Nathan Reid

Staying Connected and Getting Work Done with the All New Webex

The rapid uptake of remote working has led to a parallel increase in use of Webex as businesses key collaboration tool for colleagues to stay connected and get work done.

The power of the all new Webex is the ability to bring together everything you need to see a project through to fruition – One easy-to-use and secure app to call, message, meet and make exceptional work happen. As a result, you may find yourself operating within one app for most of your working day.

With this in mind our Cisco Collaboration team have been brainstorming ideas that not only help you complete your work, but also represents your style and personality.

In this new release we are excited to introduce:

Fresh new color themes
Backgrounds for your profile, contact card and spaces
Cobranding options to reinforce your corporate brand

Fresh New Color Schemes

First up, we have added 3 new color themes to reinvent your Webex experience. You now have a choice between Jade, Lavender and Bronze – each available in light and dark mode on your desktop and mobile app. Easily transform your app color theme within the ‘Appearance’ tab in the app settings.

Expressive New Backgrounds

Next up, you can now add fun and a splash of personality to your Webex app with new backgrounds for your profile, contact card and spaces. Backgrounds can also act as great way to help you differentiate between each of your workflow spaces.

Backgrounds are easily accessible in your app settings. You can now pick from a select number of designs to change a standard space into a fun and visually appealing work area. But stay tuned, as custom backgrounds are coming soon!

The Power of Webex with Your Own Brand

Finally, we have introduced the ability to co-brand Webex with your own company brand. Your brand is your company’s identity, it has value, gives you direction and customer awareness. And, now you can include that within your Webex experience by adding your company colors to the app header and your company logo on the side panel bar.
