 Bangalore: : Reliance Communications (RCom) has entered into a partnership with U.S. based Kodiak Networks for undertaking nationwide commercial roll-out of mobile conferencing service. R Com will launch the mobile conferencing service on a nationwide basis across both its CDMA and GSM networks.


This service enables users to establish a conference call amongst a group of nine contacts from the phone address book with a single click. The service does not need manual intervention for the conference to be set up. The company plans to offer this service for as low as Rs. 99 per month. The service will be accessible through R-World and supported by all handset clients including Blackberry, BREW, Java, Symbian and Windows Mobile Operating System with over-the-air download ability.

Kodiak Networks will offer the solution through its IP packet based Real-time Exchange System. With this, Reliance can offer two key conferencing services, Mobile Instant Conferencing and Mobile Scheduled Conferencing.

The Mobile Instant Conferencing service provides immediate dial-out mobile conferencing, including one-touch mobile call origination from the handset contact list.

The Mobile Scheduled Conferencing allows users to schedule conference calls directly from their mobile handset. Convenient auto-SMS reminders are sent to attendees at the conference start time. Participants can join or rejoin the conference with a single click and are instantly auto-authenticated without personal identification numbers (PIN). All participants can see who is on the conference call.

"Our solution supports GSM, CDMA and upcoming 3G networks, and is a proven solution for productivity enhancement for enterprises and revenue enhancement for Reliance Communications," said Kris Patel, Executive Vice President and CTO, Kodiak Networks.

The service is offered to the prepaid as well as the postpaid customers.
