Enterprise™ Conferencing
Inter-tel Enterprise CTI conferencing solution

Many enterprises require an economical means to communicate and present materials in real-time to their distributed employees, sales forces, customers, vendors and suppliers. Inter-Tel’s Enterprise Conferencing is a SIP-based audio conferencing and Web presentation solution designed to address an organization’s dynamic communication needs. This cost-effective, feature-rich solution enables an organization to seamlessly connect its dispersed resources in a secure manner—reducing costs, improving employee performance and enhancing customer relations. With Enterprise Conferencing users can better collaborate with internal or external employees, business partners and clients for brainstorming, formal presentations, training sessions or informal meetings.

Straightforward Conference Calls
Enterprise Conferencing features an intuitive, browser-based control interface, which allows users to create and manage conferences, meetings, training sessions and more. Call leaders can easily navigate the interface to perform various tasks using drop-down menus, type-in text fields and check boxes. They can initiate and set-up a variety of conference calls such as ad hoc, reoccurring, one-time only and more. Once a conference is set-up, call leaders can e-mail an invitation to conference participants, containing all of the necessary information for a hassle-free conference. When a conference is in progress, the leader has control over each call participant. Call control buttons allow the call leader to mute, hold and drop each participant—individually or all at once.

Eliminating the Challenges of Distance
Enterprise Conferencing allows users to instantly set-up presentations, webinars or training sessions that require little coordination. Call leaders can present information to fellow coworkers, customers or vendors, reducing travel expenses and improving group synergy and customer relations.

Peace-of-Mind
Enterprise Conferencing provides a secure way to communicate and share sensitive information with clients and coworkers. Leader and participant access codes ensure only “invited” attendees hear and view confidential information. Plus, web-based administration and document sharing do not require changes to the corporate firewall since it uses standard Web pages to perform its functions.

Advanced, All-in-One Collaboration Solution
Enterprise Conferencing seamlessly integrates with Inter-Tel’s Enterprise™ Instant Messaging. This combined solution enables users to immediately respond to critical business situations. Through the intuitive user interface, users can create a list of contacts or a list of other Enterprise Instant Messaging users. Via the same interface, users can IM coworkers regarding urgent matters, send e-mails, place phone calls and create conference calls.
