There is currently a mix-up in the auto-generated emails that are created upon scheduling your Event. The Attendees are given the Panelist call-in password. The email states the correct password, but in the instructions that follow below, the hyperlinked phone number includes the Panelist password instead of the Event password. If a user calls this number, they will join as a Panelist with a live microphone without realizing it. Note: Clicking on this hyperlinked number while on a mobile phone will tell your phone to dial the whole number.
Be sure to extract information from the emails instead of forwarding them.

Sharing Webex Information Online


  • Webex Events is a great option for hosting seminars/events and delivering content to many people remotely.
  • Use Webex Events when the presentation is one-way. In other words, there is no, or very limited, vocal audience participation.
  • An Event can have up to 1,000 participants.
  • Webex Events is web-based so there is no need for a VPN and do not use a Remote Desktop Connection.
  • The audience may use Chat and Q&A.
  • Panelists, Cohosts, and the Host may make use of the Practice Session.
  • Cisco Webex official description of Events (vs. Meetings): Host Webinars with Events (YouTube)
