How do I setup a conference call? |
Notify your participants of the date and time for your conference call. Provide them with the conference dial-in number and participant access code. At the scheduled time of the conference call, everyone dials in and once connected the conference call begins.

Do I need to reserve a time for the conference call? |
No, there are no reservations required for this service. This conferencing service is available to you 24/7.

Do I have to register for a new access code for each event? |
No, SimpleEvent™ gives you the flexibility to decide how you want to manage your access codes. Once the system gives you an event access code, the code and dial-in number are yours exclusively and indefinitely. However, if you would like to add additional events with new codes to represent different meetings or for additional security, you can do that by simply clicking the “add event” link in your online tool. Adding an event does not remove or delete your previous set of event access details. Matter of fact, you can monitor and track all of your events from one single location in your online management tool.
