Your service provider's ReadiVoice conferencing system offers you an easy to
use, full-featured conferencing solution. With it, you can easily and instantly
communicate with groups of business colleagues or friends and family.
ReadiVoice teleconferencing is a subscriber-based service. A subscriber is
someone, such as a chairperson or conference host, who has a teleconferencing
