MegaMeeting.com Introduces Free Toll Audio Conference Calling &

9.9 cents per Minute Toll Free Conference Calling

Improved teleconferencing offered as stand-alone product, as well as fully integrated with new web conferencing services

Los Angeles, California – “This is the age of immediate connectivity, “ says Dan Richmond, as his firm, MegaMeeting.com, announced two new services designed to improve the ease and lower the cost of telephone conferencing for businesses and organizations.

Megameeting.com, a Los Angeles based company which provides browser based web conferencing services for businesses, organizations and educational institutions, now offers enhanced teleconferencing as part of its latest Web Conferencing offerings.

“Up to 100 people can take part in these teleconferences” explained Richmond. ”The toll based service is provided as a fully integrated, standard feature of our overall web conference systems and there is no extra cost for it,” Richmond added.

The telephone conferencing is done on a toll-based number that is dialed by all meeting participants. Participants are charged their carrier’s standard long distance rate for dialing a toll-based number. The use of the service is completely unlimited but this option is only available to MegaMeeting.com clients.

MegaMeeting also offers toll-free participation in teleconferences. The host is charged 9.9 cents per minute for each participant that takes part in the conference call. This option is available to both MegaMeeting.com clients (as a fully integrated service), as well as non MegaMeeting.com clients (as a stand-alone product).

Richmond points out that by offering a stand alone audio conferencing product, MegaMeeting can benefit all businesses. “Organizations that are only seeking efficient teleconferencing, and not really interested in web conferencing, can save money using our new service,” explained Richmond.

“The stand alone service features an instant, easy online setup,” said Richmond. “All you have to do is go online and sign up.”

“Some companies will save hundreds and even thousands of dollars each month using this system,” Richmond said.

The conference call is managed through an online control panel that enables the host to dial up participants who have forgotten to call in, to mute or hang-up on callers or to put them into sub-conferences. Conference organizers are billed 9.9 cents per minute, per participant.

MegaMeeting.com Introduces Free Toll Audio Conference

There are two technologies that are making a revolution in intra-organizational communications: They are telephone conferencing and web conferencing. Using either web or telephone conferencing, companies and non-profit organizations are now able to hold many more meetings than ever before. The newest web conferencing systems incorporate both online and telephone conferencing and this will surely speed up the growth of virtual conferencing.

Most online conferencing systems allow participants to see one another using web cams and monitors, and to speak and hear one another via Voice over Internet Protocol (VOiP) using a headset or a microphone and speakers.

But what happens if one of the would-be participants does not have the right kind of headset or microphone? And what happens if one of the would-be participants does not have a high speed Internet connection or is away from his/her computer? In previous conferencing set-ups, the person who didn’t have the right equipment might miss the audio or even the whole conference entirely.

This particular problem has now been overcome by integrating telephone conferencing along with video conferencing. For example, if participants do not have the right kind of headset or microphone, in addition to everyone being able to watch the conference online, a teleconference can be used that will allow all participants to hear and talk to each other via standard telephone connections. With some systems, the call-in number and security code for the conference call are even posted within the video/web conference meeting room.

Similarly, when a company holds a combined telephone and web conference, an employee or staff member can take part in the audio portion using the telephone conference connection even if they are away from their computer or away from a broadband Internet connection.

The combined service will make it easier for companies that are already accustomed to telephone conference calling but have not yet made the jump to online web conferencing.

Online web conferencing adds many more features to a normal telephone conference call such as Powerpoint presentations, instant polling and surveys, application sharing and real time notepads for online brainstorming, but some organizations may be holding back from going to web conferencing due to the possibility of leaving behind some of their participants. The new combined teleconferencing and web conferencing systems solve this particular problem and will probably help to accelerate the already rapid growth of web conferencing around the world.
