This week, ReadyTalk released new enhancements to its Q&A
Management feature simplifying this process and allowing the
chairperson and presenters to work in unison. Some of the benefits
of ReadyTalk’s enhanced chat management include: Flag incoming
chats as “Questions” or “Answered,” and add them to... Read More »

A few months ago, we told you about Feature Frag. This
three day innovation challenge provided our engineering team the
ability to design products that would enhance the ReadyTalk product
base. While all the projects were pretty sweet, there were a
handful that made it to the ReadyTalk service…a few of which we
will explain in a series of posts. A big kudos to all participants
for their time and energy, and stay tuned for future product news!

remote workers. Being able to hire people from across the country
and across the globe makes it possible to hire the perfect
candidate for a position regardless of the physical location. This

I know this sounds ridiculous - what's the point of meeting in
person if everyone will be staring at their computer screens the
whole time? Using web conferencing while we are all in the same
room something we do all the time here at ReadyTalk (and not just
because we're a web conferencing company). There are many benefits
to meeting this way, here are a few of my favorites: Better quality
meeting visuals than trying to project: Have you ever held a

This week, we rolled out some new hold music on ReadyTalk's audio
conferencing bridges. You would think choosing the perfect hold
music would be an easy task. Just pick the music that fades
into the background, annoys people the least, and sounds
neutral...right? That's not always the case. Picking hold music is
tough. There are limitations around music available to us. There's
a world of musical tastes, general annoyance around being on hold
in general - the decision of what hold music to choose... Read More

ReadyTalk is constantly looking for feedback. We ask customers and
participants for feature requests, we send customer surveys,
we ask customers to participate in usability testing sessions and
we share wire frames and our roadmap… we do all of this because our
customers are the most valuable source of information we have at
ReadyTalk. You know things we don’t because you use our products in
ways we haven’t thought of yet. So, you may ask… where does all my
