ZipBridge is a reverse conference calling service that reduces the time and effort needed to get a full team on an unscheduled call. With ZipBridge, any authorized individual launches the call and an outbound call is placed to each member of the group of the response team and they are bridged together on a conference call as they answer. No time is wasted trying to get in touch with people to join the call with emails, phone trees or SMS messages. Team members receive a call from a number they recognize as important and the call begins with everyone in seconds. ZipBridge calls out to a backup number and sends and SMS if the original call is missed. ZipBridge is the best tool for simple and immediate team communication when time is critical.
