Calling in Webex Teams

Work in Progress

Summary

๏ We are using the word meet for both a meeting and a call in today’s client. This could be confusing to the end user.

๏ Now that calling is becoming a significant part of the client the difference in a call and meeting is even more important.

๏ Use of the video Icon for ‘meet’ is confusing. A call or a meeting can have both video and audio.

Our research objective is to evaluate and understand users perception of what a call versus a meeting is in the Webex Teams app and to gain insight into what direction the Teams client is to take when adopting Unified Calling capabilities.

Instructions

With the desktop prototype, we tested the following features in different user testing sessions, each with 4 to 6 participants. All participants have prior experience with web conferencing tools such as Skype for Business, Webex, and Gotomeetings.

Results of Testing

• A clear direction of where we should take the Teams client when bringing in calling features

• Identify users mental models around calling and meetings

• Uncover any improvements that can be made for the client itself

• Identify potential gaps in the user experience
