4 out of 5 stars just what i needed   June 22, 2009
Louis P. Calabrese Jr.
This book arrived in great shape. For those just starting to use WebEx, I highly suggest you pick this up. Although its not a new edition (i dont they made one yet) not much has changed in the webex system to discourage using this book


2 out of 5 stars Wish I had read other feedback before I purchased this.   March 18, 2008
M. Browne (New York, NY USA)
A stated in some of these other reviews, you will not get anything from this book that you could not easily access online. I was hoping for some information like a quick reference to icons on WebEx, how to set up and save polls, etc. Nothing like this there. You could write this book after spending about 2 hours reviewing online materials.


4 out of 5 stars A good introduction for the uninformed.   February 8, 2008
Mathew A. Shember (Cupertino, CA United States)
My company signed on to webex. I figured I should know a little more just in case people need help.

Overall it's a decent book. It will give you a back ground on the product and it will walk you through the steps of setting up a meeting. It explains the tools such as white boards that are available.

The book even breaks the meetings into types such as training, sales and and product marketing.

There is one chapter for administrating it which I am not sure it was needed as the admin stuff is rather small.

One thing I thought was odd was a chapter on the top 10 question for tech support and then there was a FAQ. Seemed like a duplication of information.

Overall its a good book but I am not sure it's needed especially as a reference. Webex has many online resources and even offer training that covers much of the information presented.

This book could answer questions about webex, especially if you are considering it.



1 out of 5 stars Typical "for Dummies" Pap   May 14, 2007

I purchased this book because I was scheduled to do online training through WebEx. This book was absolutely no help at all. It essentially gave a brief exposure to the WebEx system and interface and then filled the rest of the pages with a bunch of nothing.

This is typical of every "for Dummies" book I have seen. My recommendation for anyone planning on using WebEx as a trainer or a student: Don't waste your time or money on this book. You'll do far better downloading WebEx' online training resources.

The only reason I bought this book was that it is the only book on WebEx I could find. I just wish someone had warned me not to waste my money as I am warning you.



2 out of 5 stars This book is REALLY for dummies   December 14, 2005

Webex is a fantastic tool, to be sure. But this book is a waste of time. The online learning tools at webex.com are a lot better that this book. It reads more like an ad for the product that a useful reference guide. The product is so easy to use that this book is really unnecessary.

Now, if you REALLY are a dummy, this book might be helpful to you in some ways (so I gave it 2 stars). But I'd recommend you use the online tutorials at Webex, or join one of their online live meetings.
