Denver Colorado 720 Conference Call Number

We have a local 720 area code conference access number that can be used on a pay-as-you-go basis and provides a tremendous convenience for those in Denver and the whole state.

Not only will you enjoy the low rate of 2.9 cents per minute, per person (10 people on the conference call for 10 minutes would cost $2.90) but you have full access to the conference bridge at anytime.  There is no need to make a reservation — it’s all yours!

Another advantage is that your conference guests don’t have to dial long distance if they are calling from Denver, and you don’t have to go to the extra expense of providing a toll-free access number (though you may want that option down the road.)

There is a lot of business that is done in Denver.  In fact, not only is it known as the Mile High City, but “Wall Street West” as well!  So if you are a business, non-profit, educational or legal organization, looking for a reliable and professional conference call service that you can use 24/7, without reservations, give us a call 877-254-2424.

We look forward to doing business with you!

International Toll Free Conference Call Service

Here’s the most important thing you should know about international toll free conference calling — there is no such thing as one toll free number that works in all countries.

Each country requires a separate toll free number that rings to the conference bridge in the United States.  For example, if you wanted to have associates in France and Britain and Germany on a conference call, you wouldn’t be able to use one number for all three countries.  Rather, you need to get a different toll free number for each country.  Those numbers can be easily obtained using our conference service.

You can set up your account quickly here.  Just let us know what countries your conference guests are from, and we will get those toll free numbers to you that you, in turn, can distribute them to your guests.  So if you have guests in 6 countries, including the U.S., you will get 6 different toll free numbers.  When your guests dial their respective number, they will all be dialing into the same conference bridge.  (There is an exception to the rule — both the U.S. and Canada share the same toll free number.

There are no monthly fees with our service.  Other services will require you to pay a fee whether you use the service or not.  We can also offer you the benefit of having one of our professional operators dial-out to your guests and place them into the conference for you, which provides the ultimate service and convenience.  You just give us the names and numbers of your guests and the time of your conference, and we’ll do the rest.  We’ll call everyone on your list and your guests only have to answer the phone to participate.  In many instances, it’s actually less expensive to have us dial-out for you, than it is to have your guests dial-in.  That’s because it costs less for outbound U.S. calls than it does for overseas inbound calls to the U.S.

You can review the international rate for each country that will be calling into your conference here.

Overall, international toll free conferencing is a very effective way to collaborate and communicate with your overseas participants.  We stand ready to assist you with our top-rated customer service to make sure that your audio conferences are conducted using the highest quality technology and networks.

We look forward to working with you.  Give us a call at 877-254-2424 and let us know how we can help.

How Can I Make a Secure Conference Call?

Would you ever put your credit card  number and expiration date in an email?  Of course not — it can be easily intercepted by viruses which look for and harvest that type of data by software “bots.”   And that’s exactly the reason why you don’t want to conduct a highly confidential conference call on the Internet!

If your phones or conference bridge are VOIP (voice over Internet) based — in other words, if they using the Internet for their connections — you are taking a big risk.  You might be familiar with such phone services that provide very low rates because they use the Internet.  The big cable companies provide these services, mostly bundled with their Internet and television services.  Other services such as Vonage and Skype also use the Internet.  In other words, if a virus or malware can hack into your email, it can also hack into your phone call and conference.  There is always a way to beat the system — hackers spend their lives doing it. What’s worse is that a number of conference call providers also use Internet based digital conference bridges which pose a similar risk.  Fortunately, we don’t use digital bridges.

So what’s the best way to host or participate in a secured and private conference call? There are several answers:

1)  Use analog technology such as wired landline phones that use fiber-optic connections.  Unless there is a physical tapping device on your landline phone, it is virtually impossible for anyone to gain access to your call.

2)  Use a cell phone.  But keep in mind that there are cell phone monitoring devices that can intercept your calls.

3)  Make sure your conference bridge provider places your conference on an analog bridge and not a “SIP” bridge (Session Initiation Protocol), otherwise known as the most common form of Internet communications.

4)  Make sure you keep your passcodes secure.  If you want to change your passcodes, give us a call and we’ll be happy to provide new ones at anytime.

5)  You will also receive instructions on how to “lock” your conference by preventing additional people from joining once you know everyone you want to talk to is there.

Conference call security and privacy is becoming more important in this day and age, and we’re happy to provide the most secure format and settings available.

Give us a call at 877-254-2424 and we can get you set up in no time.

Full Service Conference Call Provides Convenience and Security

There are times when important and high-level collaborative conference calls need professional operators to organize, staff and provide necessary security.

Unlike automated reservationless conferencing, where hosts and participants dial-in to a conference number, full service conferencing is different in that it requires one or more operators to manage and assist in the preparation and execution of the call.  Finding a conference call company that has both live customer service operators who answer the phone, along with a staff of trained operators who can perform dial-out services for you is not easy these days.  Fortunately, we are one of a handful of companies in North America that provide full service conferencing for those clients who require and are seeking top-level value.

The highest security standards for conference calls

Considered the “gold standard” of conferencing, there are a number of advantages that you can accrue by adopting this conferencing format.  Because hacking activities are so prevalent these days, there are growing concerns that conference calls lack security and unwelcomed guests are surreptitiously eavesdropping.  Generally speaking, conference calls are secure, especially if assigned passcodes are keep in trusted hands.  However, under circumstances where there is no room for error, and there zero tolerance, the most secure way to conduct a conference call is to have professional operators dial-out to your participants.  That way, you eliminate the use of passcodes, and there is no way anyone other than those who are called can get access to the conference.  It is truly a private call and it’s impossible for any uninvited guest to gain access or enter the conference during your discussions.

Provides unparalleled convenience and support

But it’s not just about security, it’s about convenience as well.  Your participants don’t have to keep reminding themselves when to call in, nor do they have to keep track of phone numbers and passcodes.  With operators dialing-out, your participants only have to answer the phone.  We’ll do the rest.  There are several other benefits to full service conferencing, including data collection, transcripts and recordings, and translation services.

Overall, you’ll find that a professionally staffed conference call can more easily achieve your business, legal, educational or project objectives, when it comes to improving efficiencies and collaboration in a safe and secure setting.  You can learn more about our service at our webpage here.

Professionals Use Conference Call Staffed by Live Operator

While conference calling services have become more automated, there are many calls that still require a live operator to staff, manage and assist the conference hosts.  These conference calls, primarily used by professionals such as attorneys, doctors, high-level corporate and investor executives, still need “high-touch” functions that need the attention of a trained operator.

This premium service provides a number of features and advantages that are not available with regular conference call services, namely:

1)  Operator dial-out:  This is when our operators personally dial each of your conference participants and place them into the conference call.  Depending on your preferences, they can also introduce each caller into the conference.  This service is particularly useful and convenient because your guests don’t have to keep reminding themselves about calling into the conference.  They don’t have to remember anything — they just answer their phone.

2)  Dial-in to operators:  Rather than operators dialing out to your participants, your participants dial into the conference, but are greeted by live operators, and according to your wishes, the operators can obtain data such as name, company, phone, email, etc.  The operators can then place your participants into the call.  This is a great way to build a database of interested parties or prospects.

3)  Conference Q&A sessions:  A live operator service can be used to organize and manage a question and answer session during your conference.  For example, when introducing a new product or conducting a press conference with reporters.  Participants simply press a number on their keypad and are privately queued behind-the-scenes.  The operator will ask their name and will ask them to wait for their turn to participate in the Q&A and will introduce them to the whole conference at the proper time.     Overall, there are number of reasons why live operators are needed to help with important conference calls.  Whether it’s for legal calls between lawyers and judges, corporate calls with investors, professional continuing education programs, or sales calls with prospects, we can staff your conference call with experienced operators who will assist you in managing your call by offering the highest level of customer service.

For more information about operator staffed conference calls call us at 877-254-2424 or click here.

Meet Me Phone Conference Calls for Business and Non-Profits

When it comes to arranging and having a phone conference call, using a meet-me service is the most popular way to go.  Tens of thousands of businesses, large and small, along with thousands of non-profit groups, use meet-me conferencing every day to collaborate on important projects, advance sales goals and keep everyone on the same page when it comes to important topics and issues. Meet-me conferencing comes in several formats and you can choose the one that best accommodates your needs and budget.  The following are listed in order of their popularity and use:

1)  Pay-as-you-go Meet-me (Pay per use, pay per minute conferencing):  This is also known as pay-per-minute, or pay-per-use meet-me.  This comes in several flavors — toll free, non-toll free, and local access. (See the links at the top of this page.)  Toll free is the top of the line service, providing your guests the convenience of dialing a toll free number from anywhere in the U.S. or Canada.  Non-toll free service (dialing a regular long distance number) costs less and is an excellent choice for those who are budget conscious.  Local access provides numbers in over 50 cities in North America that enable users to dial a nearby number.  No matter where they call from, everyone is automatically tied into the same conference bridge.  So, you could have someone dial a NYC number, an Atlanta number, a San Francisco number and a Miami number — and everyone would be connected!  A great system.

2)  Unlimited flat/fixed rate Meet-me:  For a low monthly rate, you can enjoy unlimited 24/7 conferencing services.  Everyone dials the access number (in most cases, it would be a long-distance number) and then keys in their passcode.  That’s it!  You can conference as much as you want, as long as you want for as little as $9 per month for 5 incoming lines.  Flat rate meet-me is the ideal solution for heavy conference users, particularly for internal organizational conferences.

3)  Local access (dialing a local number) Meet-me:  We have local conference call-in numbers in over 50 cities across the U.S. and Canada.  All of the numbers are connected to a common conference bridge.  So, your colleagues in Chicago, San Francisco, Miami and Houston, can all call a local number and be placed in the same conference.  Pretty amazing!  Better yet, the service rates are remarkably low, at only 2.9 cents per minute, per person.

4)  Operator managed Meet-me:  Have an important call?  Then have our professional operators do the work for you.  They will call out to each of your participants and place them into the conference.  Your guests only have to answer the phone.  You can also get additional services, including Question and Answer moderation, collection of data from each party, and monitoring.

Meet-me phone conferencing services have come a long way in the past few years.  Rates are much lower and the services have been expanded with many more options.  If you are looking to add meet-me to your business arsenal, give us a call at the above number and we can set you up in no time.  There is no set-up fee and you’ll enjoy outstanding customer service.  Contact us today!

Conference Calls with Operator Help and Assistance

Most conference calls are “unattended” which means that the host and guests are left alone to conduct their own call.  It’s easy, convenient and productive way to have a conference call.

However, there are times when an important call is taking place when you’ll want the services of a professionally trained operator to assist and manage your call.  For starters, an operator can dial-out and call each of your participants and place them in the conference.  The only thing your guests have to do is answer the phone.  After they answer, the operator will introduce the call to them, place them in the conference, and introduce them to the guests who are already on the call.

Probably the most common type of conference call that uses this format are legal calls where attorneys are discussing cases with a judge.  The judge is usually the last person to be called by the operator.

However, operators can be used for many other purposes including: collecting personal names, contact info like email addresses, and company names.  That is when the guests, for example, journalists on an investor’s relations call, dial in themselves and are greeted by the operator who asks them for their information, and then places them into the conference.

Operators can also coordinate Question & Answer sessions and can queue and introduce guests to the entire group.  You can learn more about our operator conference calls by clicking here, or clicking the link on the right side of this page entitled, “Operator Managed Conferencing.”

Overall, you’ll find that while having an operator assist and manage your call costs a little more, the service you receive is well worth it.  It lets your guests and participants know you are serious about your discussion and that you have gone the extra mile to make sure that everyone is treated with the utmost respect, courtesy and professionalism.  Call us at 877-254-2424 if we can help.
