Conference Calls: Overview

University Technology Services (UTS) provides the use of basic meet-me conference bridges to link up to 20 participants on one call. Please see Getting Started for information on scheduling a UTS conference bridge.

There are a number of vendors who are able to offer full service audio conference bridges for a fee. Full service features include a hosted solution option, bridge capacities of 100 or more, access pass codes, toll free bridge numbers, mute control, roll call, call recording, reservations via the web using a credit card, and billing on a monthly account or on an as used basis

Additionally, some vendors offer a web conferencing option that utilizes a conference bridge for the audio portion and an internet link for presentations. This option may require special software and/or operating system (OS) requirements so note any specifications stipulated.
