At the first glance the ability to
make a three-way call on your VoIP phone may not sound anything special - this
is something which you can do with most wired telephones. What is special here
is that with VoIP phones it is much easier to connect three persons to a
conference call at a fraction of the cost of the wired phones even if the
persons you call live abroad.
The typical way to create a
conference call with your internet telephone goes like this.
Call one person normally on your
internet phone. Then press a button and dial the second person. After the second
person comes online, press another button and your conference call is on. Most
VoIP providers would offer you a three-way conference call ability but some go
much further by letting you connect with as many as ten persons at the same
time.
This feature is highly useful for
your business as well as for keeping in touch with more than one family member
or friend at a time without leaving your home.
