BlackBerry has just introduced “BBM Meetings“, a cross-platform voice and video conferencing service. This service focuses on enterprise users. It will be available for Android, BlackBerry 10, Windows and Mac. As of now, it is now available for iOS but it will be available soon.
BlackBerry Meetings lets you host a virtual meeting from BBM chats. Invitees can attend the virtual meeting via BBM or email. Meetings will also synced up to your device’s calendar. One can attend this meeting via desktop or mobile devices. When it is the time for the scheduled meeting, your phone will start ringing. You will be automatically landed into the meeting. This will remove the complicated pin verification process of conference calls. One can share his/her screen, a presentation or document in the meetings. BBM Meetings support up to 25 participants at a time.
It is a subscription base service which costs $12.50 per host per month. 30 days initial free trial is also available.
