What are the key differences between WebEx and Teams?

Hello,

This is just a question I am curious to know about why enterprises are still using WebEx and not Teams yet? What could be the reason behind it? ( While Teams is far better)

What are the key differences between these two products? What are those features that is possible in WebEx but not in Teams?

Thank you for your time in advance!

Thanks,

    Teams however comes as part of Office 365, and realistically needs you to adopt SharePoint Online and Exchange Online. For some larger companies that's a lot of work, and it's sometimes easier to just renew with Cisco when their deal is up for renewal.

    WebEx, basically a video conferencing system.

    Teams, keyboard to keyboard chat, voice calling, PSTN calling, video conferencing, file sharing, Team site where conversations go on, applications, well, that's maybe 10% of the Teams features.
