●Adding pre-defined participants from the Address Book by either selecting the participants from the list or dragging and dropping the participants from the Address Book to the Participants list.

●Dial-in participants can connect to the conference after it was started (without using the New Conference - Participants dialog box).

●Once the conference has started, participants can be added to a conference directly from the Participants Address Book without having to use the New Conference – Participants tab.
