Soft Phones (Webex & Cisco Jabber)
Webex App
The Webex app allows users to answer their university phone number on their computer or mobile device. Webex has additional features including built in noise-removal capabilities, custom contact list, white-boarding and ability to update your current status. For more information, see Webex App - Getting Started using the Webex App
Cisco Jabber Client
The Jabber client allows users to answer their phones on their computers. This client is available to Windows and Mac users on campus-owned computers. See Cisco VoIP - Jabber for Voice Only Overview and Sign in Information. While Jabber is still available, we recommend using the Webex App for a better experience including:
- Background noise cancellation for external callers

- Additional features including a custom contact list, whiteboarding, the ability to update your current status, add bots/apps to your channels
