User reviews
This is absolutely terrible and pales in comparison to cisco click to dial. Horrible.
by Peter Dodge Peter Dodge, 2022-10-20

This doesn't work, and even if it did, it would not add any productivity because of how many things you need to click. You have to highlight a phone number, right click on it, scroll down to click the "Call 'Phone Number' with Webex Call", open that, click "Call", (then takes you to your Webex App), on the Webex app says "Would you like to call this number", select "Yes", and then the call fails... Please create something that you can simply 'click' and it dials, or at least a keyboard shortcut when highlighting a number on a web page.
