Reservationless conference calls can be used at any time by any person with access to a telephone connection. This telephone service is often free and does not require prior reservation through the telephone company. Reservationless conference calls can be used instantly without the need to register or go through any operators. Participants in the same conference dial the same conference call number and they are instantly connected.

Reservationless conference does not require you to call an operator to reserve a time slot in a conference bridge. This service does not require you to declare the number of participants as opposed to scheduled conferences. However, this service does not guarantee that the dial-in number will be available at the time and date that you need.

Reservationless conference calls are free. However, most companies that offer this service do not provide toll free numbers. This means that although participants do not pay for the conference call service, they may have to pay long distance charges to dial into the conference. Free reservationless conference calls do not go through a central reservation system. Hence, the dial-in number you have provided may not be available at the time and date of your conference since it is already in use.

Reservationless conference calls may not be able to accommodate a large number of participants. If you are planning a big conference, participants in excess of the maximum number will get a busy signal and they would not be able to join. This type of conference call service also often has a time limit.

However, reservationless conference calls can be very convenient for you. If you do not hold regular conference calls and you do not have a large number of participants, this type of conference calling will work to your advantage. The service is not only free, it is secure and it has clear digital connections. You do not have to go through an operator to make reservations. You do not even need an internet connection.
