Introduction

Conferences allow multiple users to participate in the same conversation. Two different conference types are available:

* Traditional Audio Conference:

The conference members join the conference via any telephone connection.

* "UCC WebRTC" Conference:

The "UCC WebRTC" conference provides a web browser based conferencing environment with fully encrypted audio and video conferencing, slideshow presentations, document sharing, desktop sharing etc. . Conference members without Internet access can also participate in a "UCC WebRTC" conference. However, they are limited to the audio conference.

Both conference types can be organized via the AdminCenter. An invitation and automatic reminders can be sent to the conference participants via e-mail. The invitation contains all the necessary information for the conference members to join the conference.
