Companies of all sizes should consider purchasing a conference phone for their teleconferencing needs. Conference call phones promote group communication and strategy, because they work best in a designated conference room. Conference phones can accommodate 3 to 30 people, so even the smallest business can teleconference with their partners and clients.

Originally the conference call was limited to businesses paying exorbitant fees to the telcos. For business, it still made sense economically because the costs were less than the travel costs involved in bringing the people together. Additionally, significant time savings are involved, both in terms of travel time and in being able to communicate fairly rapidly to an extended group.

Your conference room phone is one of your most valuable assets to help you collaborate with others. And regardless of the size of your conference room, calls are productive and efficient when participants on all points of the call can hear clear, crisp voice quality-even during simultaneous conversations. With Polycom's patented Acoustic Clarity Technology, your conversations flow naturally and get everyone talking.

As telecom infrastructure continues to evolve to support IP communications and now also wireless communications, conference calls are increasing in demand. Teleconferencing and the ability to have a conference call with contacts at a different physical location is proving valuable for business and personal communications needs. With the addition of Voice over IP (VoIP) and wireless, more teleconferencing capabilities are becoming available to provide users with landline IP and wireless phones the ability to have a conference call.

In the United States, the landscape of teleconferencing services has been changed since the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001. Following the event, there has been a significant up-surge in demand for teleconferencing services. Most teleconferencing service providers, such as Worldcom, BT and Deutsche Telekom are seeing a substantial increase on video conferencing and a marked increase on audio worldwide. The former is also true for the smaller competitors in the telecom space. Teleconferencing service providers have indicated phenomenal growth occurring year over year as businesses users are increasingly turning to audio, web and video conferencing to complement and even replace in-person meetings.

The market for communication conferencing services is continuing to grow rapidly worldwide and is expected to reach $14 billion in sales by 2005. A portion of this growth can be attributed to the desire of corporations to reduce capital and operating expenses, and lost productivity of business travel. However, many organizations that initially invested in conferencing solutions for such short-term, tactical reasons are finding that conferencing (audio, Web and video) delivers significant, long-term, strategic business values far beyond initial expectations. Businesses are aggressively expanding the use of conferencing throughout the enterprise.

If you work in the corporate world, chances are you have been involved in a meeting with some sort of teleconferencing. If not, expect to be. As this form of communications continues to gain in popularity, especially for small businesses. Why the surge for teleconferencing instead of face-to-face meetings? The answer is simple - the technology now available for teleconferencing has advanced to the point that better communications can happen more often when face-to-face is not feasible.
