Skype vs
Webex

Webex has built its moat around IT admin controls, while Skype offers a familiar face to folks using it since early 2000s.  Both allow you to conduct basic video calls, but they lack modern AI features that are essential for today's teams. Let's put Webex and Skype on the bench, and see how they stack up.

Skype has been here since 2003. That is 20 years. So how come the call button doesn't work?

Skype and Webex Compared
It was once a leading video chat app but today offers dated UX and misses out on advanced features for global teams.
Despite its extensive admin controls, Webex offers a complex UX and lacks the advanced tools and capabilities modern teams need.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better: Skype or Webex?
  • Skype has widespread adoption among individuals who have been using it since early 2000s and are very comfortable with its old school UX.
  • Webex is typically seen as more security-focused [at the expect of user experience].

Both lack advanced AI features, comprehensive search capabilities across meetings, and integrations with modern productivity tools; that limit their use cases.

Try Feta; we've built it from the ground up for the needs of a modern team.

Do Skype and Webex use my data to train their AI?

Both Skype and Webex have somewhat limited privacy controls when it comes to AI and data usage. They may use data for improving their services, but the extent of this usage isn't always clear. It's always a good idea to check their latest privacy policies for the most up-to-date information.

How is Feta different from Skype and Webex?

Feta offers high-def video, AI-powered features like smart summaries and transcripts, and extensive integrations. It prioritizes data privacy and provides a smoother user experience with intuitive navigation, addressing key limitations of Skype and Webex.

A cherry on top: Feta adheres to strict data privacy protocols. We do not use user data for AI model training.
