Com2 Communications has access to some of the most advanced communications solutions available, and all at amazingly reasonable prices. One of the things we get asked about regularly with our larger corporate and government agency clients is about the ability to do tele-conferencing and open the abilities to the costs of this sometimes overly expensive function. Introducing the Avaya Conferencing Bridge!
The Avaya IP Office preferred edition carries a free inbuilt conferencing bridge supporting conference capabilities with as up 128 participants on a conference call, or multiple conferences can take place at the same time (e.g. 4 x 32 party conferences)
With the Meet-me Conferencing Bridge a unique PIN number can be given to guests for a secure conference format, where individuals input the 4 digit PIN before joining the call. Use IP telephony, and all internal conference calls could become free.
The Scheduler management interface allows for the creation of conferences, invites to be sent, or set up in real time on the fly. The Web Client empowers the host to stream documents and presentations for live to air viewing. IP Office Calls can be placed on hold and a conference created using either the phone or desktop applications. Additional conference members may be added at any time, and allows for up to a maximum of 128 members.
The Host, via the IP Office Web Client interface, can manage guests ability to be able to “Speak” and “Listen” or set them to “Listen only”. Through the Client interface, the Host has the ability to “Whisper” to any individual on the call. Participants can also instant message using the web chat functionality privately to the Host or to all participants. Employees can cost effectively conduct meetings over the phone and spontaneously collaborate, share information and make decisions creating more effective work practices leading to shorter project times and increased employee productivity.
The Meet-me Conference Bridge delivers lowered conferencing costs by removing the requirement for the traditional conferencing service providers. Return On Investment on IP Office conferencing solutions can be as short as 9-10 weeks, depending on your usage and current supplier costs.
The cost of using traditional conferencing solutions has been extremely expensive. The conference facilities on the Avaya IP Office are incredible, with 128 party conferencing built in to the system.
