Inviting others to a Rondee Conference Call

I saw this posting: “What is the best way to handle a situation when an invitee wants to invite other people to the free conference call?  How do I grant that permission?”

When you set up the Rondee conference call, there will be a box you can check which says “Allow participants to invite others”

Rondee and Outlook Integration

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

Question – does Rondee have an Outlook toolbar or integrate with Outlook or ACT or is it all on the web?

The answer in short is yes but let me give you a little more detail.

When you use the Scheduled Version of Rondee, the meeting invites arrive with an attachment that integrates directly with Outlook.

When you use the On-Demand Version of Rondee, you are responsible for sending your own invites through Outlook, in which case the integration is natively accomplished.

In case you are wondering about the difference between the two versions:

Scheduled Rondees are calendared through the Rondee website. You sign in to Rondee.com to choose the date and time for the call. Rondee sends out email invitations, and invitees respond on the Rondee website. Rondee keeps track of the attendance and displays the call title, agenda and responses on a page unique to that call. Various features can be enabled such as call recording, automated reminders and recurring conferences. Rondee emails each participant a different PIN code unique to him or her.

Rondee On Demand conferences are not scheduled through the Rondee website. Instead, you independently notify your invitees of the date/time, and all participants dial in with the exact same PIN code. Click here to get a PIN code for Rondee On Demand.

Rondee iCal & Outlook Integration

Friday, March 5th, 2010

I saw the posting: ” Outlook and iCal integration are listed as features. I can’t find anything outlining these features on your site - how does Outlook and iCal integration work for Rondee free conference calls?”

For Outlook: when the invite arrives, the Outlook downloadable file will be attached and just needs to be downloaded.

For iCal: please go to the My Account section after logging in:

You’ll see these notes next to a URL:

Use the above URL to import your Rondees conference calls into many popular calendar applications.

You should consult the documentation for your application to do this. We provide data in the Internet-standard vCal format.
