AccuConference offers a desktop control system that allows the host to control all aspects of the call.

Conference callers who are fed up with paying for expensive operators to coordinate their communications have another option. AccuConference offers a desktop control system that allows the host to control all aspects of the call. The system allows real-time viewing of a conference call, the ability to see who is talking, live Queued Q & A, the ability for participants to “raise their hands,” viewing the number of people in the conference and where they are from. AccuConference offers free recording of calls and a complete portfolio of other services to make your Conference Calls more productive.

“When we started five years ago, there were only a handful of companies involved in the conferencing business,” says Rob Anderson, VP of Marketing. “Now, there are hundreds of companies in the business and the market is pretty well saturated. We had to create a niche that sets us apart from the rest.”

Among the other services the company offers are toll-free conferencing plans, flat-rate programs, and international calling at no extra surcharge to more than 30 countries. Web conferencing, which is gaining popularity, is also offered by AccuConference at either per-minute or flat rates. Web conferencing allows the use of PowerPoint presentations, application sharing, and the user can add video or chat options.

Customers who sign up for audio services can take advantage of a free trial offer on the company’s audio and web conferencing offerings.

“Our system is ever changing based on the needs of our customers. We build our features based on customer requests and we’ll be adding more features as we get requests and ideas from customers,” Anderson said.

AccuConference, a leader in audio and web conferencing, announced the launch of their new online polling feature. The survey tool will be bundled with insight™, the company’s web conferencing program, and will be offered at no additional cost.

In a colleague- to-colleague business meeting, polling can be used to reach a consensus quickly and avoid long-winded answers.

insight™ allows a moderator to safely share PowerPoint, host live Q & A sessions, and interact with participants using text-based chat. The secure platform also allows a moderator to mute/un-mute participants during a live call. Polling is one of the many features available to customers who log into their accounts online.

“The customers who utilize these web-based features have integrated them into their day-to-day conferencing.” says VP of Marketing Rob Anderson. “We continue to develop customer driven technology that is easy to use and will enhance the conferencing experience.”

insight™ is entirely web-based, which means users do not need to download or install anything. The program is 100% Mac compatible and can be viewed using any mainstream internet browsers.

The online-polling will allow users to view real-time results during a conference. It will also give participants a chance to offer feedback without voicing their opinions out loud. In a colleague-to-colleague business meeting, polling can be used to reach a consensus quickly and avoid long-winded answers.

It can entertain as well. For example, if participants were asked to rank a press release, the answers might look like this:

A.) It’s breathtaking.
B.) I’ve read better.
C.) Please end my misery.

AccuConference is based in Ft. Worth, Texas. They provide a robust conferencing system with immediate customer service and support. Customers can sign up online at www.easycallconference.com or call customer service toll-free at 1.800.730.0626.

Imagine looking up from your work to find out that the conference call you absolutely must attend has been underway for 20 minutes. Or worse, it has already ended. Ask any professional you know, and they’ll recognize this as an all-too-familiar scenario.

With a few clicks, the plugin will issue an e-mail and an Outlook calendar reminder item to the participants registered for the conference call.

AccuConference, provider of Audio and Web conferencing technologies, has released a free downloadable tool that makes the forgotten conference call a thing of the past. Their new Outlook plugin allows moderators to automatically remind conference-goers of the time, topic, call-in numbers, and conference codes to use.

And the plugin works with any conferencing system, not just their own. With a few clicks, the plugin will issue an e-mail and an Outlook calendar reminder item to the participants registered for the conference call. Additional features allow for one-click visits to support web sites associated with the conference.

“We consider this tool our free gift to the teleconferencing world,” says Jim Black, AccuConference president. “Anyone can download the plugin from our website and use it for free, regardless of what company handles their conferencing.”

Mitch Meyerson, an author and marketing expert who has run thousands of hours of teleclasses, says conferencing is a much-needed tool and one that will save money and professional reputations.

“Entrepreneurs and companies spend a lot of money on meetings and trainings – sometimes upwards of thousands of dollars per person – only to miss classes,” he says. “People get so overwhelmed with information and input that they lose track of time or get distracted with e-mail or phone calls.”

Those costs can add up quickly in today’s business world where corporations and small businesses alike rely on teleconferencing to sidestep travel complications related to terror incidents and surging gas prices. With the conferencing industry expected to reach $5 billion in 2007, according to the market analyst firm Wainhouse Research, revenues lost to the industry by forgotten conference calls are substantial.

Christian Nys, a Phoenix, Ariz. entrepreneur who frequently attends high-dollar teleseminars, says he’s among the guilty who play “conference call hooky.”

“I don’t know how many times I’ve been late for a conference call, but it’s too many. About 10% of the time I forget about them completely,” he says. “When your career depends on being reliable, mistakes like this one can’t be repeated too often.”

Black says the tool is just one of many his company has created based on customer feedback.

“We genuinely enjoy introducing new innovations based on what our customers say they need,” says Black. “Making this tool free to download was one small way of giving back to the world, in the spirit of our Get Connected program, which provides 50% off audio and web conferencing for nonprofits, schools and universities.”

The company’s services include desktop control of conference calls, free recording, toll-free and flat-rate plans, and international calling at no extra surcharge to more than 30 countries. They also provide web conferencing with PowerPoint, application sharing, video, polling and online participant chats.
