Even though video conferencing has been used more and more frequently recently, conference calls remain an important tool for collaboration within companies.

The main advantages of conference calls:

  • You can join calls from anywhere with any phone
  • No need to make audio or video settings first
  • Fewer disruptions and dropouts, as conference calls require significantly less bandwidth

And this is how you set up a conference call room:

1. Open Cloud Telefonanlage

2. Add extension

You can manage and edit all your extensions and call groups on the CTA overview page.
All extensions and call groups are listed on the CTA overview page.

Please click on "Add" next to "Extensions and call groups".

3. Basic settings

Select the Conference mode using the button in the Extension type window.
An extension can also be defined as a conference.

Please assign a name for the conference room and set the switch next to "Extension type" to "Conference".

4. Set up a conference room

Set up your conference according to your requirements.
Conference settings are made in the Incoming telephony section.

Please enter the "Phone number", "Direct Dial" and "Quick dial" under "Incoming calls" and then define a subscriber access by entering a code of your choice under "PIN".

5. Finalise setup

Once you have made all your desired settings, complete the process by clicking the "Save" button.
