One can't always shoot an email if there is a need for asking a question through the phone. When the entire testing team calls in and the entire development team joins in to answer their queries, it is an example of a simple conference call within one building between teams. This is time saving because developers could be at their station looking at the program and the testers could be at the lab testing the software. This is expected to boost the market growth.
These days the telephone systems enable callers to call more than one person. This becomes especially useful when each person is in different locations around the city, state or even the world.

Although colleagues are geographically separated, they may still get together to discuss a project's particulars. All they need to do is set a date where it's most convenient to have a conversation with all of them. Some firms also have part of their team located in a different country, and when the project manager wants to get details about what has been accomplished, they can set up a conference call between the two. This gives every member an opportunity to inform about their progress or what is stopping them.

If the time difference is 12 hours or more, one party would have to call at night, or do it very early in the morning. Although some may label this as part of the job, some may find it a drawback. For some this also means staying in the office until the audio conference begins. This is expected to hinder growth in the market.
