TimeBridge Adds New Money-Saving Web Conferencing Service to Its Scheduling Application

New Easy-to-Use Personal Conferencing Service Now Available to More Than 300,000 TimeBridge Users


BERKELEY, CA--(Marketwire - March 9, 2009) - TimeBridge today announced the release of the TimeBridge Personal Conferencing Service, the most recent addition to its line of collaboration tools that make the scheduling and meeting process easier than ever. The TimeBridge Personal Conferencing Service is a full-service web and phone conferencing offering that is drastically less expensive than other conferencing services such as WebEx and GoToMeeting. The TimeBridge Personal Conferencing Service facilitates better business collaboration by allowing users to provision a phone or web conference with a single click. Since the conferencing is integrated into TimeBridge's scheduling process, all attendees are automatically provided conferencing information via email and in their calendars.

A recent survey of TimeBridge users found that almost 60% of TimeBridge members depend on more expensive web conferencing services today. Of those, 21% use GoToMeeting, 14% subscribe to WebEx and 22% rely on another web conferencing service.

The TimeBridge Personal Conferencing Service is a very competitively priced conferencing alternative that supplies users with all the standard conferencing features, including a personal conference call number and web conferencing, for 80% less than the leading conferencing service providers. TimeBridge's Personal Conferencing Service is available for $8.95 a month, and can be used for any meeting, regardless of whether it was set up using TimeBridge.

"In a time when everyone is asked to do more with less, TimeBridge is answering the call. We are on a mission to make it easier for people to find a time to meet and get their work done once they do get together," said Yori Nelken, TimeBridge's CEO and founder. "The TimeBridge Personal Conferencing Service provides an inexpensive alternative to what's currently available so people are freer to meet online or over the phone whenever they need to, without all the hassle and expense of setting up separate dial-ins and presentation links -- making the act of getting together and collaborating easier than ever."

TimeBridge's free scheduling software integrates directly with Outlook, Google Calendar and Apple iCal, and is the most efficient way to schedule meetings with large groups or individuals across time zones, calendaring systems and companies. TimeBridge facilitates the entire meeting and collaboration process from sharing availability by providing users with personal and group availability links, through negotiating the meeting time, to automated meeting preparation with The Daily Brief. More than 300,000 people and 16,000 businesses are using TimeBridge to facilitate the meeting process. Register for TimeBridge here.
