Scheduling Events
MaestroConference makes it easy to create, manage and customize your social conferencing events. Set preferences for registration, reminders, call recordings, screensharing, recurring calls and more, with a few clicks.
Facebook Event Sharing
It can be expensive and time consuming to market your events... let your community help. Our Facebook integration allows your registrants to comment about your upcoming event on their Facebook wall, and share a link to your registration page. See how fast your event can go viral!
Registration Options
Choose from two options, depending on your needs. Self-registration provides each participant with a unique PIN, so you can identify them by name on the call; or, you can simply provide a single PIN to all participants, saving time for both you and your callers.

Free International / Skype Dialing
Make it easier for your global participants to join in. You can have participants from outside the US use their phones and call in to your conference for free (*).
WebPhone
Your international callers want a free call-in option, and you want an easy way to grow your global community. With the WebPhone, your participants use our browser-based phone to call into your event, free - no mobile or landline phone is needed.
Large Event Capacity
Growing your audience is key to your success - don’t let call capacity hold you back. We can easily accommodate large-scale events of up to 5,000 participants, and up to 2,000 screenshare users. It's smooth and streamlined, with fully functional MaestroConference features.
No Software Download
Our web-based conductor’s interface works across all browsers and devices. Participants can join your interactive event from a computer, mobile device, or even by audio only using a regular phone line. We save you time & make it simple to use our platform.
Text Message (SMS) Reminders
Boost your event attendance with Text Message (SMS) Reminders. Your participants will receive a text message on their phone reminding them about your upcoming event three minutes before the scheduled start time (this is in addition to the standard event email reminders).
Custom Branding
Create a great first impression with your audience from the moment they land on your event page with our Custom Branding add-on. This “white-label” version combines your logo and branding + the power of the MaestroConference platform to create a consistent experience of your brand and message throughout your event. And there’s no need to send your audience to a third-party registration page—you can promote and take registrations directly from your own website by using our embed code!

Screenshare
You can inspire and motivate a client in person, or one-to-one over the phone - but doing that with a group over the phone? Difficult. With Screenshare, you can. It brings your vision to life by letting you share PowerPoints and other documents on-screen with your audience. It's like they're right there with you.
Shared Browser
Share a web page URL with your audience, and collaboratively edit a document... have them submit ideas and strategies to a discussion board... provide commentary in a discussion forum... or walk them through filling out an order form in real-time. It’s higher productivity from your participants, and more time and money for you.
Call By Name
Your audience wants to feel important and that you can relate to their uniqueness. The best way to do this is to call each participant by name. Our unique registration system lets you see every participant's name, so you can address them personally, let them feel heard and known, and deepen your relationship with them.
Walk the Room
Just like in a classroom setting, you can virtually “walk the room” to listen in on your breakout groups. By moving from one group to another, you can keep your finger on the pulse of your participants, gather valuable insights, and share with them more powerfully when everyone reconvenes in the "main room".
Screen Questions
Keep your event focused and productive. With the ability to collect, pre-screen and organize your participant's questions, in real-time, you can optimize the content of your call and save time by not addressing irrelevant questions.
-
Social Webinar
Jump into a new paradigm of engagement - get your community connected. Social Webinar lets your callers see the names and photos of others in their breakout group, creating a higher level of interest and deeper interactions.
Participant View
Traditional one-way, “I talk, you listen” teleconferences just aren’t engaging. To be successful, you've got to engage and hold the attention of your participants - get them involved. With Participant View, you can share conference details, messages, poll results or responses to Q&A sessions with your audience.
Webcam
Host can turn on his/her Webcam when sharing screen to have a more engaging presentation. A deep connection with your audience translates into a strong relationship over time - the cornerstone to building a vested community.
Raise Hands
Bring the organization of a classroom to your fingertips. With a single click, participants can raise their hands in response to your questions, enabling you to call on each one individually. This enables you to view and sort your audience's responses in an organized and concise manner.
Crystal Clear Audio
Our high-quality phone technology and individual microphone controls keep distortion and background noise to a minimum, keep participants engaged and focused, and let your mission and purpose be the star.
-
Microphone Controls
You want your audience to be focused and engaged, but that's nearly impossible when your call has background noise and people talking over one another. Take back control of your event. Individual microphone controls for each participant let you mute or unmute individual callers or groups of callers, and adjust each caller’s volume.
Straw Polls
Engage your audience and better understand their needs by asking them thoughtful questions that get at the heart of the matter. Straw polls enable you to ask questions, and participants use their telephone keypad to respond. Immediately, the results are available to view, creating excitement and a deeper impact for your community.
Green Room
It’s important for event leaders to be on the same page, before the event begins. Imagine a "team huddle" where you can set your intentions for the event, inspire each other before the call, or simply conduct last minute preparations. The Green Room gives you just that - a private "room" accessible only to call leaders before the event starts.
Multiple Conductors
For your large events, it’s easy to share the workload with other presenters and assistants. Multiple Conductors allows you to give up to five call leaders permission to access event controls, so they can help you screen callers, create breakout groups or take polls.
Staff Chat
Streamline your call and add professionalism to your event. Staff Chat gives your presenters and assistants access to a private chat room during the call, helping you respond quickly to any circumstance that arises. You also receive a transcript of the chat along with a call report after the event.
-
Breakout Groups
Let your community share their brilliance with you and each other by utilizing Breakout Groups. With this powerful tool, you can divide your call participants into groups of two or more, based on almost any criteria. You'll be astounded at the level of engagement and interaction you can create.
Like-Minded
Create breakouts that group callers with similar characteristics, such as geographic area, demographics, industry, data captured from questions you ask before the call, or results of straw polls you conduct during the call.
Random
Bring serendipity into your events... create Random breakout groups to connect exactly the right people at exactly the right time, and offer deep alignment for your participants. You can choose the size of your breakout group, from 2 to unlimited callers formed at random.
Teaching
Create a powerful teacher/student mini-classroom, virtually. Maximize your participants’ responses in a way that is manageable and productive, with a smaller student/teacher ratio that’s not possible in a large conference setting.
Private
Use Private breakouts to address challenges or questions that are not relevant to the entire group, but important to be addressed immediately. Take private information, credit card information or discuss sensitive topics aside from the main group, without having to extend the call.
-
Data Capture
With Data Capture, you’ll know who registers for your event, who attends, how long they stay on the call, and the results of polls you take during the call. The information is available in .csv or Excel format, and after each event, you receive a post-conference report along with the data in text format.
Call Recordings
We provide free, downloadable MP3 recordings of your teleconferencing event, and host your recording free of charge for up to 120 days. You can also host the recording on your own website, or have recordings turned off. You'll save time and money while letting your audience feel the magic of your event, forever.
Premium Recordings
If you're spending valuable time editing your call recordings, or spending money to have someone else do it – there's an easier way. With Premium Recordings you can start, stop and pause your recording on command, in real-time. You can also record each individual breakout group. Extra charges apply.
OneTouch Opt-In™
With the press of a number on their phone keypad, your call participants can instantly commit donations, make purchases, volunteer, register for your next workshop, or sign up for special offers. Their name, phone number, and email address are captured and sent to you, creating a powerful marketing database with no extra work.
App Integrations
Integrate MaestroConference with the tools you already use via Zapier. Create powerful, automated workflows with hundreds of other apps such as CRMs, email marketing, project management, office apps and more.
