Teleconference phone bridges
August 30, 2005 7:25 AM Subscribe
Hosting a teleconference with upwards of 300 people. Any suggestions for service providers?
I don't need desktop sharing, slideshow, etc. Just a phone line where the organizer can mute out the participants for Q & A mode.

Do all of the participants need the ability to ask questions, or will there be a central Q&A microphone?
How will the 300 participants be able to hear the conference call? Do you have facilities to amplify the call?

Response by poster: Nope - I'm hoping for a service that has the Q & A mode to mute out everybody but the organizers. Probably going to have callers submit questions via IRC or email.
Re: amplification - this has never been a problem with past calls I've led since it has always been through a phone bridge service - not sure if that need arises as the number of callers increases.

Oh, I understand now - my experience is with a large room full of people and several on the teleconf, not just a large number of people on the teleconf.
Good luck.
