Meet-Me Conferencing
Meet-Me conferencing is a great way to connect multiple callers at different locations into the same live call as an alternative to face-to-face meetings. You can establish a conference number to be shared across multiple users within a group. When your conference bridge is enabled, you will have access to your bridge information consisting of a direct dial number, conference ID, and moderator PIN. This information is sent to you through email.
Once your settings have been selected, you can call the direct dial number for the meet Me conferencing bridge, and enter your conference ID and moderator PIN if required.
