How is a per minute plan different from a flat rate plan?

With a per minute plan participants would dial a toll-free number to access a conference call and account holder would be responsible for all charges. Number of participant with per minute plan is unlimited. With a flat rate, participants will dial a long distance number (404-area code) and they would be responsible for the long distance portion of their conference call. Account holder will pay a flat monthly fee and can use his/her account for unlimited number of calls. Number of participants, however, would be limited depending on the type of the flat rate plan.

What plan would work best for my needs?

If your company is making more than 1,000 minutes in conference calling per month (e.g., 5 participants x 10 conference calls x 30 minutes each), Flat rate plan might be a more cost efficient solution for your needs, assuming you have a low cost long distance provider.
