What are the differences between reservationless and operator-assisted calls?
Reservationless conference calls are automated using a dial-in number and 6 digit access code. There’s no human interaction on a reservationless call. Operator-assisted conference calls have our specially trained event staff working directly with you and your attendees. They’ll greet them, collect participant contact information, introduce the call and speakers and manage Q&A all the while, making sure your call is going as expected.
What factors determine why I need an operator-assisted call?
If you need a conference call with more than 500 callers, you’ll need to use our operator-assisted platform; and if you’ll need to know exactly who’s on the call by collecting personal information from each caller, you’ll need to use our operator-assisted platform.
