What is WebEx?
The UTHealth Information Technology Department is pleased to announce that UTHealth has selected Cisco WebEx as a new tool for video and audio collaboration. This new service will be the primary video conferencing tool at the university, replacing GoToMeeting, Acano or any other services that may have been used in the past. Students, faculty, and staff will now be able to use this technology, free of charge, to schedule interactive online meetings. WebEx includes Outlook calendar integration, allowing you to schedule WebEx meetings directly from your Outlook calendar. Each online WebEx meeting you host will support up to 1,000 participants.
