WebEx, who is now part of Cisco has increased its support for the Mac across its entire suite, as adoption of the platform has more than doubled in the last year. WebEx Meeting Center, WebEx WebOffice, WebEx Event Center, WebEx Training Center, WebEx Sales Center and WebEx Support Center now offer cross platform support for Leopard and Safari 3.1. Cisco WebEx's remote access solution, WebEx PCNow, now provides support for PC-to-Mac, Mac-to-PC and Mac-to-Mac as well as Apple iPhone sessions.

As mentioned above, the expanded support is part of Cisco WebEx's attention to multi-platform support and its growing customer base of Mac users: "You can't deny that the Apple Mac is becoming more prevalent in businesses; in fact, we have seen Mac usage double in last year," said Ilan Kasaan, director of product management, Cisco WebEx. "We want to ensure that all of our customers have a successful experience, and as with all of our solutions, we are consistently upgrading to meet the demands of our growing user base."

The most notable features spanning the entire Cisco WebEx collaboration suite include increased launch and join speeds for WebEx Meeting Center; better desktop/application sharing performance in WebEx Meeting Center; better presentation sharing performance in WebEx Training Center, WebEx Event Center and WebEx Sales Center; better 3D animations in shared Keynote documents across the WebEx suite; up to six videoconferencing channels with a WebEx Meeting Center session.

Also, the WebEx application suite sports improved sound quality for VoIP (voice over IP) and audio broadcasting.
