To deliver this service you start by creating a “Conference Group“. This is where you will create all the needed “Rooms” (aka “bridges”). Most customers just need one group but large customers with many rooms and many departments can have multiple groups for better tracking and management.

The billing for each room is then tracked within its parent group.

*Note: Most conference services are sold as a metered solution and on a per minute / per participant basis. Therefore, you usually do NOT add a subscription to a conference group service. However, if you are selling any conference plans that include a bundle of minutes you would then likely add a subscription as needed. Please contact support if you need help with this.
