Creating a Space
In Webex App, when you send a message to a group for the first time, you create a space for the group to talk. Spaces work best for a group of people collaborating on a specific topic or project. You can send messages, make calls, have video meetings, share files, and use whiteboards. The next time you message the group, your conversation picks right up where you've left it.

Creating a Team
In Webex App, teams help you keep everything organized by categorizing multiple spaces under a common theme. For example, you may have a team for a large project that includes cross- department members all working together on specific pieces of the project. When you're creating a team, you can also select an emoji and add it to the name.
