BuyerZone user comments: teleconferencing service purchasing requirements

"We have groups that we would like to conference with either monthly, or every other month.Each would be between 7 and 15 participants."

"Need to conduct more than 1 conference call at a time."

"We have an immediate need to have a conference call with 19 participants and then the capability of a "listen only" feature. We might need to do something like this in the future, but generally we would only have maximum of 20 participants. There also might be a need for a "voting" capability, but thought that might be considered "polling"."
