VOIP Phone Conference Calls

Some companies are switching their telecommunications systems over to VOIP -- Voice Over Internet Protocol.  Instead of using the usual analog voice signals through circuits, VOIP converts those signals into small chunks of data and delivers that data with something called packet switching.  While VOIP can be less expensive than traditional phone calls, some technical problems can crop up in conference calls when calling from VOIP connections.  That's why if you use VOIP, you want to make sure that you pick a conference call provider, like us, who can direct your VOIP calls to a special conference bridge designed to handle that technology.  We have a ThinkEngine conference bridge with 1000 ports that can accommodate VOIP calls.  While VOIP technology still has some bugs to work out in the long run, using a conference bridge like this will dramatically improve your ability to offer your associates and clients the best that is available at this time.  Moreover, you don't have to worry about how folks are accessing your conference since it can handle both analog and digital calls simultaneously.  So give us a call if you are using VOIP and are looking for a reliable phone conference call service.
