This of course begs the question “Can webex have 2 hosts?”
If you are not able to attend one of your Webex meetings, you can designate an alternate host to take over the host role for you. An alternate host must be someone with a Webex Meetings host account at UW Madison. You can designate one or multiple alternate host for a single meeting, or for a series of reoccurring meetings.
This is how you’ll change hosts on Webex for Mac: Launch Webex on your Mac. Start a meeting, with you being the host. Invite participants and wait for them to arrive. Navigate to the “Participants” panel when you want to change hosts. From the list, right-click the name of the participant to whom you want to transfer the host role.
What is a co-host in Webex?
Cohost /Alternate Host – The Cohost is someone who assists the Host with starting a meeting, moderating the session. This role can be assigned while scheduling the Webex or during a Webex session. Additional actions the Cohost can perform include: Mute or unmute some, or all participants.
What is WebEx and how does it work?
Webex is no different and also has similar functionality, where the host is allowed to change the roles of participants. This allows the new host to continue the meeting or record it if the original host has to leave the meeting. As long as you’re the host, you have the power to transfer the role to another person.
Who can be an alternate host for a WebEx Meeting?
An alternate host must be someone with a Webex Meetings host account at UW Madison. You can designate one or multiple alternate host for a single meeting, or for a series of reoccurring meetings.
One of the next things we asked ourselves was, how many WebEx licenses do I need to host multiple meetings?
Each additional license will allow you to host a new concurrent meeting, so if you need to have five meetings running simultaneously, you would need four additional host licenses. To ask about additional licenses for your account, contact the Cisco Webex Sales team.
Can I let someone else start a WebEx Meeting without me?
If you want to let someone else start a meeting without you, you can let someone else be an alternate host. You can do this for Webex -scheduled or Personal Room meetings, and if you join later, you’ll become the host automatically. You can only use this feature if the Webex site is managed in or linked to Control Hub.
