A voip conference call uses the revolutionary VoIP technology that transmits voice over the internet to the other concerned parties. The use of internet facilitates faster and distortion free voice transfer thus assists in conduction efficient meetings. Using quality equipments like Polycom phones adds to the effectiveness of the conference by improving the audio quality.

Earlier, a Voip conference call used to be facilitated by a moderator, who was specially selected to coordinate between members of the conference. It was the moderator who used to call up all the members to brief them about the date, time and agenda of the conference. On the day of the conference, it was the moderator’s job to coordinate the conference and ensure that the meeting was conducted according to the agenda. This method was convenient in case the number of members was less, but in other cases it proved to be very time consuming.

To remove this difficulty in audio teleconferencing, the use of Conference Bridge started increasing. A conference bridge acts as a hub, in which all the members of a VoIP conference call dial to get connected to the meeting. Some advanced conference bridges also have features such as auto scheduling and auto dialing to facilitate a better conference call.

The use of a conference call eliminates the need for a scheduler, thus reducing the excess time consumed in calling up all the members to schedule an audio teleconferencing call. Moreover, extra features such as auto dialer and auto scheduler assist in better coordination and less tie consumption as compared to conventional scheduling of meetings.

One crucial question that organizations ask is when to purchase their own conferencing bridge and when to use the services of a conferencing service provider, who facilitates audio teleconferencing through their own conference bridge. To answer this question, the organization needs to consider the frequency of it conferencing calls and the number of members that would be involved in those meetings. If a company has to frequently coordinate between its members or clients on important issues, then installing their own conferencing bridge is the best solution. Although the initial installation is going to cost a magnanimous sum of money, but in the long run it is going to even out and prove to be comparatively cheaper.

Thus we can confer that a conferencing bridge, added with quality equipments like Polycom phones, will not only increase the effectiveness of the meeting, but provide a comparatively cheaper conferencing solution to companies. For more information, you can visit : http://www.conference-bridge.com/
