Cisco Jabber for Windows released

I uninstalled WebEx Connect and CUCI Connect, then installed the new Cisco Jabber for Windows 9.0.1 Build 8802 that was released earlier this week.



My first impressions of it aren't too bad.  The concept and layout are virtually the same as WebEx Connect.  But, the look of the theme/skin/colors should be customizable as the contact group headings seem too light in my opinion.  But, all of my contacts and groups that I had in WebEx Connect are still correct.  The only issue I've seen so far is that the call status "On a call" doesn't update when I'm done with the call and was stuck llike that all day.  Anyone else seen this?

Also, I tried setting up WebEx meetings, and got this error:


I believe this is because single sign-on (SSO) won't be supported until a later release this summer.  I'll have to look into this to verify.

If anyone has any other issues, please list them here.  Thanks!!

Cannot join WebEx meeting on Android

I ran across this the other day.  Looks like you can't join WebEx Event Center or Support Center type of meeting from a mobile device.  Here is the error I get on my Droid X running the Cisco WebEx Meetings 1.1.0.34 app:

Cannot Join Meeting
WebEx Event Center and Support Center are unavailable on mobile devices.

To join the meeting now, please use a computer.

Here is a screenshot:
