Effortlessly Create an Audio Conference with the 3CX Web Client
With greater volumes of companies and employees opting for remote working arrangements, it’s essential that users are able to communicate quickly and effectively and collaborate without difficulty.
The 3CX Web Client provides users with the ability to effortlessly create and schedule conference calls with just a few clicks of the mouse. Here’s how easy it is to use the 3CX conferencing feature.
Because we can’t plan for every idea, suggestion or emergency, the 3CX Web Client allows you to easily create an audio meeting and invite all participants without needing to call up and add in each extension.
In the Web Client, click on “Schedule Conference”.
Choose your conference type (Audio or Video) and select “Now” to begin the meeting right away.
Fill in all the details including “Subject” and “Notes to Participant” and select the calendar you wish to use to send out the invitations, or select 3CX.
Choosing 3CX will allow you to add participants at this step. Once added, click “Create Meeting”. The call will be initiated and participants will connect.
If you choose a calendar to schedule the conference, the calendar entry form will open to allow you to further customize the meeting details and invite participants. Each participant will receive an email invitation with details on how to connect.
To schedule a conference for a later date, simply select “Later” when entering the conference details. You will then be able to choose the time and date for the conference to be scheduled.
An email invitation will be sent to all participants; those who accept will be automatically called at the scheduled time. Participants outside the organization will need to follow the steps in the email invitation.
You can view and edit scheduled conferences by clicking on “Schedule Conference” in the Web Client.
Just as you might need to create a conference call on the fly, there are often times when we need to add certain voices to a call we’re already on. Luckily with the 3CX Web Client and browser extension for Chrome and Edge, this couldn’t be easier.
While on a call, simply click the “Conference” button in the dialer pop-up in the Web Client or in the browser extension.
Search who you want to add to the call by name or extension, or enter their phone number.
Press enter and that’s it! They will be automatically dialed.
