Cisco Webex Calling


Webex® Calling (formerly Cisco Spark Call) is a cloud-based phone system, part of the Cisco Webex suite of collaboration services. It is optimized for midsize businesses and provides the essential business calling capabilities you are likely to need. With Webex Calling, there’s no need to worry about the expense and complexity of managing phone system infrastructure on your premises anymore. We take care of the Webex® Cloud so you can focus on what matters most.

You can choose from a wide range of Cisco® IP phones to make and receive calls. Enjoy the calling features you are used to from a traditional phone system to help run your organization smoothly and never miss a call. If you are a mobile worker, or you are out of the office, make and receive calls on your smartphone, computer, or tablet, using the Cisco Webex Teams™ app.

Webex Calling (formerly Cisco Spark Call) seamlessly integrates with Webex Teams and Webex Meetings, so you can take collaboration inside and outside your organization to a new level. Your staff, customers, and business partners can make high-definition audio and video calls from the office, from home, or on the go. You can share screens, files, and messages, and can also whiteboard, to turn any call into a productive meeting. You can also add Cisco Webex Board, Room, or desk devices to help you get the most out of Webex Teams and Meetings and improve teamwork.
