Hoster of bilingual Web conferences
Bell Canada and Microsoft Corp. are offering a bilingual (French and English) version of Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2005, introducing
a Bell Canada-hosted version for small and medium businesses (SMBs) that helps users work, train, or present together in meetings without having to be in the same place at the same time. Using Audio Integration functionality, the service allows control of the audio conference call directly from the desktop. For example, moderators can dial-out directly to participants, mute phone lines, remove participants or lock the meeting entirely.
