Not able to meet in person? WebEx is a tool that allows users to host or participate in video conferencing, online meetings, and screen sharing, with up to 1,000 participants allowed in a virtual meeting room. Meetings can be joined in a number of ways via the WebEx desktop, web, and mobile apps.

The Tufts WebEx site allows you to join meetings right from your browser (web app), however you may be asked to install a browser plugin in order to share content with other participants.

You also have the option to download a desktop application that can be used to join meetings without the need to visit the website.

You can choose whether to use the web app or desktop app as your default method of joining meetings from the Tufts WebEx site's home screen, as described below in the 'Choosing How to Start a Meeting' section. Note that launching the desktop app from the WebEx site requires a separate plugin.

The Tufts WebExsite also provides access to scheduling tools, meeting recordings, support, and more.

What is it?

• Fully functional Modern View of the WebEx Meeting Center available through an application on your computer.
• Can start or join meetings without visiting the Tufts Webex website.
• Links to the website's scheduling tool.
• Can share and annotate content.

To check whether or not the computer that you are using already has the desktop app installed, search your computer's applications for 'WebEx'. If it is not installed, follow the directions below. WebEx should already be installed on Tufts-owned computers, but if it isn't you may require administrative access to do so. Contact the help desk at (617) 627-3376 for assistance.
