The Consortium II conference server, with unmatched

flexibility and performance, brings together an easy to use,

comprehensive feature set with powerful system management

capabilities. Flexible Scheduling options allow you to set up

conferences on the go, or set up your weekly management

meeting to automatically call and connect you and your staff.

Audio Conferencing is the simple, yet cost effective

collaboration tool that allows groups of workers to

communicate at a distance. While its concept is simple,

arranging and managing conference calls can be elaborate

depending on the scale of the group. See how the power and

flexibility of Forum’s premise based conference server can

improve your business communications, increase employee

productivity and reduce costs.

Set up quick or one time conferences on the fly. Use Outlook Meeting Request or Appointment Scheduler to check

participant availability, quickly schedule a conference with multiple participants, and send email confirmation to all

parties with the date, time and details of the conference. Set up recurring weekly calls for staff meetings and let the

system automatically “Blast Dial” all your expected participants and connect them instantly to the conference.

The system is simple to use and administer. Why waste time and money travelling when each group, department, or

individual in your company can set up and manage their own conferences and preferences. Connect with coworkers

and customers, in their office or on the go. The simple web based Lite UI user interface provides easy access to

system features and setup.
