Our Strengths
Conferencing is our only business! We have perfected our high-quality, reliable, and simple-to-use services to ensure that you can focus on your meeting, not on our technology
We provide expert Account Managers who will work with your team to provide on-going training, call planning and preparation, and account reviews to analyze usage, review service levels, and develop action plans where appropriate
ConferencePlus is large enough to handle the scalability requirements of the largest telecoms, yet small enough to care about developing one-on-one business relationships with our clients
Our financial stability sets us apart in a market space plagued by financial and corporate instability
