Subrah Iyar, and Min Zhu founded WebEx in 1995. Neel Kamal co-created the video conference call software under the name VideoTouch, which was later renamed to WebEx. Zhu had co-founded Future Labs (one of the first companies to produce multi-point document-collaboration software) in 1991. Zhu met Iyar, then a vice-president and general manager of Quarterdeck, when Quarterdeck acquired Future Labs in 1996. Iyar became president of Future Labs, which had become a Quarterdeck subsidiary, and the same year Iyar and Zhu went on to co-found WebEx. On March 15, 2007, Cisco Systems announced it would acquire WebEx for $3.2 billion.

David Thompson, the first vice-president of marketing at VideoTouch, coined the name "WebEx" in late 1998 as the company transitioned from its original software business-model to relaunch as a SaaS company in 1999. Traveling Software, which changed its name in September 1999 to LapLink Software Inc., originally owned a software product called WebEx, which shipped to the public in June 1996. The LapLink product called WebEx was a utility to be run as a companion to be used for offline web-browsing, a feature subsequently integrated within most commercial modern-day Web browsers.
