Conference Rooms

The Conference Room is the kind of call that more persons can partecipate. The conference calls are usually defined as "rooms", whose access can be limited by time settings or pass code. 

Warning

This feature is not available for account end-to-end accounts.

Conference Calls

Conference Call, as its name implies, is a call involving at least three users. It differs from Conference Room by the fact that Conference Call is one Secure Call at which third parties got invited. So it's one sort of dynamic conference room. All users invited are thus added to conversation in progress by either caller or callee.

Warning

This feature is not available for account end-to-end accounts.

Call transfer

Call transfer is a typical PBX performance which is implemented in  PrivateServer  as well. One of the partecipant can hold on his/hers peer and perform a new call to the number to which trasfer the call. If the desired number picks up the call, then the transferrer can close the communication and let his/hers peer talk with the trasferred number.
