Intense competition in the smartphone applications industry is probably what has prompted RIM to launch this latest app for its customers in North America. The new BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing app makes it simple for users to join and schedule conference calls from their BlackBerry mobile phones.
The app has a unique ‘Join now’ button which makes it effortless for users to join the conference by dialing the conference bridge and entering the appropriate codes. Calls can also be scheduled by using the BlackBerry Calendar and a user’s conference call profile in two simple steps. The act gains support from top audio conferencing systems in North America too.
Tom Goguen, vice president, collaboration and social networking at RIM quoted, “With BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing, making conference calls has never been easier. Converting multiple steps and hard to remember codes into a simple ‘Join Now’ button is another great example of how BlackBerry smartphones enhance communications and productivity.”
BlackBerry Mobile Conferencing which requires BlackBerry Device Software 5.0 or higher for functioning is currently available in North America on BlackBerry App World for free.
