Local Time Zone Support in Conference Control Panel & Notification Emails

Greymouse Conference — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 02:29:21 +0000

As NSW, ACT, VIC, TAS & SA have started daylight savings, Greymouse releases its latest feature

After much customer feedback of how confusing timezones can be to manage when participants are joining a teleconference from around Australia, we have added local time zone support.

You are now able to :- create, view & edit conferences in your local timezone, including when daylight savings is in effect - and it works for any time zone around the world.

Daylight Savings - Starts 4 October 2009

Greymouse Conference — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 05:58:59 +0000

For the ACT, New South Wales, South Australia & Victoria daylight savings is now in effect, requiring everyone to wind their clocks FORWARD one hour.

As our conference service is Brisbane based the times you have set your conferences to start at will remain the same.
(EG: 10:00AM Brisbane time, will now be 11:00AM Sydney Time)

If you intend on having your conferences at the same time as before daylight savings, you must also set your conference to start an hour earlier.

If you require assistance in changing your conference start time please contact support.

Beta Skype Conference Calls - Now use Skype-To-Skype to dial us

Greymouse Conference — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 10:48:15 +0000

Greymouse is beta testing a Skype add-on for our PBX system called 'Skype For Asterisk' from Digium, this add-on allows for integration between Skype and our teleconferencing system. This enhancement allows for our teleconferencing solution to bridge calls from a 1800 Number, Local Telephone Numbers, SIP (VoIP) & Skype calls all in the same Teleconference room.

The Skype dialling method is a Skype-to-Skype call which means the participant will not incur a fee for dialling our Skype account and for the use of our service we have a discount rate for Skype calls, the host pays 5¢ per minute per Skype line for the use of our service.

So you might be asking yourself, well what changed?

Removed 'moderator call in to start recording' restriction.
Added recording ability for Permanent/Non timed conferences.
Web page shows if the conference is currently being recorded.

Greymouse Conference — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 14:20:42 +0000

22 year old Clint Davis started Greymouse Teleconference (an audio conferencing service where multiple phone lines are "bridged together") 12 months ago after seeing a distinct lack of low cost teleconferencing providers for the small business market.

Skype for SIP Beta works with Greymouse SIP Teleconference Service

Greymouse Conference — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 03:33:55 +0000

Last month Skype released their SIP for Skype BETA.

This is a remarkable step forward for both Skype & SIP. This means that business that are using a SIP based PBX can integrate the Skype client with their PBX, allowing employees to answer and make both Skype or SIP calls.

This enhancement enables the ability to use our SIP/VoIP teleconferencing ability for conferences.

End of daylight savings - 5 April 2009

Greymouse Conference — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 05:05:11 +0000

For the ACT, New South Wales, South Australia & Victoria daylight savings will soon come to an end requiring everyone to wind their clocks back one hour on the 5 April 2009.

As our teleconferencing service is based in Brisbane time (+10 GMT Without Daylight Savings) your conferences will still be occurring at the same Brisbane time.

This means if you have had a conference scheduled for 8:00AM Sydney time (7:00AM Brisbane time) - The conference will now be running at 7:00AM Sydney time.
