Managed Conferencing

Simple and cost efficient Managed Conferencing

Interoute offer the following range of conference options:

• One time - these are active just once for a given period of time
• Recurring - these are repetitive bridges occurring at specific times on specific days
• Open conference - the conference bridge is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

Access to the service is via one or more unique and dedicated geographic numbers ensuring security and confidentiality, and via Interoute's web portal customers can create as many conferences as required.  

Each conference has its own Chairman and participant entry codes.  These are automatically generated and formatted into an email invite for ease of use.

When customers purchase Interoute's Managed Conferencing, they buy a maximum number of ports.  Ports are available for customers to purchase in multiples of 10, and the number can be increased or decreased as customer requirements change.

As an example, if a customer has purchased 20 conferencing ports, they can now either create multiple simultaneous conferences such as 4 conferences of 5 people (or any other combination to a total of 20 conference call participants) or a single conference of up to 20 people.

All customers receive one inbound number for conferencing in the country of their choice.  Should more numbers be required, these can be easily requested at time of order or later on.  These additional numbers can either be in the same country as the original number or they can choose from over 40 different countries where Interoute offer conference bridge numbers. 

The Interoute service is a flat price per port as opposed to usage based.  This assures cost control for customers with no set up fees for each conference, no per minute charges or premium numbers to call.
