Problem: Just for those times when multiple remote people are emailing back and forth on a hot discussion and you just need to get everyone on the same page for a quick discussion.
As my business grows, there more times when I need to quickly get people on a call. At the company I used to work for, I remember some overhead to reserve a conference bridge, or go to a room with a good duplex speaker phone. Of course in my placeless office, I don't have my own conference bridge.
Solution: I've started using Powwownow for quick phone conferencing, where I can just pick a pin number, send it out to people, dial in and BAM you're in.
Some advantages I see:
- Instant Access with no Registration
- International Calls and Skype Access that will also lower the costs for international users.
Some concerns:
- With the quick Open Access, you have to create your own PIN and there is no guarantee that someone else isn't using it at the same time, but of course that leads you to at least want to register.
- Confusion in the different phone numbers they have. There is one for "Open Access" (American Accent) and one for "Enhanced Access" (British Accent)
Hope it works well for you too!
*I have not researched or used a lot of other services, but if I find the need to explore more, I will. I also have not used any of their "Web Conferencing"
