The June (42.6) release was the final release for Productivity Tools for Windows. The final release for Productivity Tools for Mac was 41.5 as Microsoft blocked injection-based plugins on Mac.

Microsoft Outlook customers who wish to schedule Webex meetings from Microsoft Outlook should move to the Webex Scheduler add-in.

The Webex Meetings desktop app and Webex Productivity Tools are provided in two separate packages. For information on the desktop app, see Webex Meetings Desktop App.

Productivity Tools no longer supports integrations with IBM Lotus Notes, IBM Sametime, Microsoft Lync, Internet Explorer, and Skype for Business from 41.2.

Webex integration to Microsoft Outlook is part of Webex Productivity Tools. Webex integration to Outlook for Mac gives you an easy way to schedule or start Webex meetings using Outlook.

Your site administrator may have installed Webex Productivity Tools for you. If not, you can download it from your Webex site. See Install and Set Up Webex Productivity Tools for the Mac.

Meeting invitees don't need to use Outlook to join the meeting, and only need a Webex account if the meeting is restricted to Webex users on your site.
