Technology for education that plays an important role in dealing with this pandemic is the learning management system as a form of learning methods in the COVID-19 pandemic. In this study distance learning in the COVID-19 pandemic with the comparison of Zoom and Webex can be relevant to the concept of applying learning methods in the face of a pandemic, which aims to provide convenience in the use of technology for education. The results of this study are to provide an understanding of learning methods that can be applied in learning activities as an effort to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic that can be used by schools in Indonesia, by knowing the comparison is expected to provide convenience in using Zoom and Webex in distance learning at this time.
