The Advantages of HD Voice Conferencing
For starters, you may be wondering what exactly HD Voice is. In simple terms it's high definition audio, similar in sound quality to that provided by HD radio or CDs. In Europe, many mobile networks have begun offering HD Voice for calls placed to other mobile callers within their network. While this HD Voice is a large improvement over traditional mobile calls, it is still not close to the HD Voice capability provided by Callvine's conferencing app and service.
Callvine's high definition conferencing uses cutting edge technology by leveraging an advanced wideband audio codec. Essentially it's using an iPhone's data capabilities to process more information from your voice, and this wider range of sound creates a clear and crisp quality that makes doing business via HD conference calls easier than the fuzzy signals of cellular voice.
You may be wondering how HD Voice conference calling affects the voice or data plans on your mobile device. This is the great part. HD Voice doesn't use any mobile minutes or data if you're using HD Voice on Wi-Fi. For international callers, you can avoid all calling fees by conferencing with HD Voice on Wi-Fi. However, the app will support HD Voice on 3G networks when no Wi-Fi is available and such service will use approximately 20 megabytes of data per hour of talk time. However, using Wi-Fi, you're not just limited to using Callvine HD Conferencing on an iPhone. iPads and iPod Touches are fully supported to connect using HD Voice on Wi-Fi.
After using Callvine HD Voice Conferencing you'll begin to wonder how you ever went without it. With the easy-to-use iPhone app, you're not just able to hold conference calls, but record them as well. HD conference call recording gives you a crystal clear record of what went on during your call.
If you or any of your colleagues don't currently use an Apple iOS device, you will soon be able to enjoy HD Voice on other platforms. Sign up for our VIP updates to see when Callvine HD Conferencing will be supported on your device.
