Introducing the ReadiVoice
®
System
This chapter offers a general overview of the ReadiVoice conferencing system
and its features, functionality, and components.
What is the ReadiVoice System?
The ReadiVoice is the industry-leading, on-demand conferencing system. It
provides an easy-to-use, reliable, scalable, and full-featured conferencing
solution.
A ReadiVoice conference may contain up to 300 participants, including the
conference leader(s).
How ReadiVoice Conferencing Works
The ReadiVoice system is subscriber-based. A subscriber is someone, such as a
chairperson or conference leader, for whom you’ve set up conferencing access.
Each subscriber has access to a specified number of conferencing ports and can
use them at any time.
Through the provisioning process, you add subscribers to the ReadiVoice
system’s database. Each subscriber is given an access phone number for dialing
into the system and a subscriber password that identifies the subscriber. An
access number can be shared by many subscribers or private (assigned to only
one subscriber). If the access number is shared, the subscriber is also given
either:
• An access code that everyone uses to access the subscriber’s conferences.
• A participant password that participants use to access the subscriber’s
conferences (the subscriber uses the subscriber password).
Each conferencing subscriber is a member of a subscriber group. Subscriber
groups are logical groupings of related subscribers who share the same default
settings and options (for instance, a specific prompt set). You can create groups
for specific purposes or you can use one subscriber group for all subscribers.
