MeetingPlace Audio and
Web Conferencing (MPC)

MeetingPlace Conferencing (MPC) is both an audio and Web conferencing service that can be used separately or together. This conferencing service features the ability to:

  • Automatically schedule MPC resources and conference attendees via Outlook or the Web.
  • Use Web conferencing to collaborate live on any document.
  • Record meetings for later playback or for archival.

Fees

MPC charges are comprised of several elements. You do not have to use the Web conferencing services to hold an audio conference. Additionally, you need to decide whether you want the conference participants to connect using the MPC toll-free service. You should not advertise the toll-free number unless you want participants to use it.

Billing is based on the number of scheduled ports or the number of actual participants, whichever is higher. Charges may be incurred for conferences not cancelled within 48 hours.

Audio Conferencing

  • $10 per hour for blocks of 10 participants. 1 to 10 participants is $10 per hour. 11 to 20 participants incur an additional $10 per hour charge. Customers will be billed for the total number of participants on the conference.
  • There is no per minute audio charge except for participants who use the toll-free number.
  • Toll-free is billed at 6 cents per minute.

Web Conferencing

  • $15 per hour for blocks of 10 participants. 1 to 10 participants is $15 per hour. 11 to 20 participants incur an additional $15 per hour charge. Customers will be billed for the total number of participants on the conference.
