What is Cisco Webex Calling and is it right for your business?

Skip to main content

Short answer: Webex Calling is Cisco’s cloud business phone system. Calls run over the internet rather than a phone box in your office, so staff can make and take calls on a desk phone, computer or mobile, wherever they work. It suits businesses that want flexibility and a phone system that grows with them.
