Business can move at a very fast rate and you have to be quick to keep up. When a situation arises where you need to get a group of people together quickly in a conference call, the last thing you want to do is waste time getting the call going. If your conference call service provider has reservationless conference calls, you are good to go.

A conference call with reservations is not a "doubtful call." It's a conference call that you have to contact someone to setup or reserve the lines you need… all before you and your participants can get on the line. Reservationless conference calls are ones where you have the numbers and the codes, and can call in whenever you like. Depending on your provider, the difference between reservationless and not could be as little as ten minutes or even ten hours.

Some larger calls - such as those with fifty participants or more - require you to give a head's up to your provider beforehand. This isn't to inconvenience you; it's to make sure that there are enough telecommunications resources available so that you have a quality call. But if you are having that many people on the call to begin with, you'll know it in advance and can add a large conference call notification to your preparations.
