A system and method for creating teleconferences that leverage social networking websites and messaging thereof. The system includes a teleconferencing website hosted on a server for scheduling a teleconference in response to user input, and for generating a message for display on a social networking website. The message includes information about the teleconference and a link to one or more invitees to the teleconference. The system further includes an interactive voice response system for hosting the teleconference to connect at least some of the one or more invitees to the teleconference. The system further includes a client application running on a mobile device associated with each of the at least some of the one or more invitees. The client application receives a notification of the teleconference from the social networking website, and includes a control interface to enable an associated invitee to join the teleconference.

Provided are a conference access method and a conference access apparatus. The method includes: receiving a call from a calling user, wherein information of a number called by the calling user includes a number of a called user and a number prefix, the called user is a conference member of a conference room, and the number prefix is used for accessing a conference system; and accessing the calling user to the conference room of the conference system. Through the technical solution, the problem that the calling user cannot join the conference due to various reasons in the related arts is solved, the flow of accessing the calling user to the conference room is optimized, the scope of application of the conference access method is expanded, and the efficiency and the success rate of accessing the calling user to the conference room are increased.

A conference management system of the present invention displays, before terminals used by users participate in a conference, electric field intensity information of the respective terminals, and available capacity information of bands in a plurality of lines, for each of the respective terminals and enables the users to select one terminal from among the plurality of terminals based on the display. Provided is the conference management system including a conference management device connected to a plurality of networks and a plurality of wireless terminals connected to the conference management device via access points corresponding to the plurality of networks. One or more wireless terminals corresponding to a predetermined user name display a plurality of wireless terminal names corresponding to the predetermined user name, and electric field intensity information and band information of access points to which the respective terminals belong, which have been received from the conference management device.

An apparatus or method implemented in a computer system. In one embodiment the method includes receiving, from a device, a request to join a video call, and determining, in response to receiving the request, whether the device meets predetermined requirements to join the video call via videoconferencing. The method further includes sending, in response to determining the device does not meet the predetermined requirements to join the video call via videoconferencing, a message to the device, wherein the message comprises a link to join the call via audio conferencing.

Systems and methods performed by an IP telephony system allow a user to request that his IP telephony device be set into a conference calling mode for an indefinite period of time. When the user's IP telephony device is in the conference calling mode, all parties that attempt to call the user's IP telephony device are added to a conference bridge tied to the user's IP telephony device. All incoming calls are treated in this fashion until the user cancels the conference calling mode and returns to a normal calling mode.

The present disclosure discloses a voice communication processing method and system, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes: initiating from a first account, through a first application, a voice activation request to a server side; receiving a verification code that is returned by the server side and that corresponds to the first account; calling, through the first application, a voice communication authorization interface to send an authentication request comprising the verification code to the server side; the server side providing an authentication result; and initiating operations of the voice communication service interface, based on the authentication result.

A method and system are provided. The method includes automatically monitoring one or more voice communication sessions occurring on multiple communication devices to transcribe into text, by a processor-based voice-to-text transcriber, voices uttered by two or more respective participants other than a user in each of the voice communications sessions. The method further includes comparing, for each of the voice communication sessions, the topic of interest to conversation features derived from the text to detect a match there between. The method also includes providing the user with a summary of each of the voice communication sessions for which the match has been detected by said comparing step, the summary being based on the text. The method additionally includes automatically connecting the user to at least one of the voice communication sessions for which the summary thereof has been provided to the user.

A system for managing a conference call, the system comprising a call answering server configured to receive a call from an attendee device that has been forwarded from a host device, identify a conference call associated with the host device for the attendee device to join, receive a request from the attendee device to join the conference call, and connect the attendee device to the conference call.

Systems and methods allow an administrator of a conference call bridge to control who is admitted to the conference call bridge. The systems and methods also allow the administrator to identify a new individual who will become the administrator of the conference call bridge when a triggering event occurs. The systems and methods also allow an administrator to identify a new endpoint device from which valid control commands can be received.

Conference call alerting is provided. A first device of a plurality of telecommunications devices initiates a telecommunications link between the first device and a second device of the plurality of telecommunications devices. The first device receives an interaction that includes a communications address of a third device of the plurality of telecommunications devices. The telecommunications link is modified to include the third device. In response to the third device joining the telecommunications link, the first device issues an alert to the second device and the third device, wherein the alert indicates that the third device has joined the telecommunications link.
