Any of you techie / work-from-home types have a good recommendation for a VoIP app or phone that supports conference call hosting and calling mobile phones? Skype for business? Google Hangout? Hardwired IP phone?
Looking to do more work out of the office and need the functionality of my office Polycom but without the added complication of lugging another device around. Don't want to eat up my own bandwidth on my cell.

I use a raspberry pi, with increadible pbx, and google talk as my trunk. It works well, you can call any number. It's hardwired, but once you pay for the hardware, it's free, you can have as many lines as you want, as long as you have the google talk accounts to back it up. It's fairly easy to set up. You do need a sip phone, I use the Gradnsteam GXP2200, it's pretty slick.
I've been using this setup for about 6 months now, no issues at all. It's basiclly as powerful as you want, you could run 100 or more phones off it if you wanted.
Oh yeah, with the GXP2200 you can conference with up to 4 other lines.

Thanks, that's probably the best solution yet. With an IP phone and hardware I still have to lug around gear. I'm looking more towards a mobile home office. Something that I can set up with minimal complexity; a month here, another month or two there.

yw, that's what I use, you can make conference calls and save all the numbers into 1 conf
I run everything through a local company here called Vitelity and use a Linksys PAP2T for my access. Its a pretty cool setup and allows you to use a normal phone while programming all the "services" inside their portal. It works well.
Don't forget google hangouts with google voice to back you up.
If anybody need a high precision monitoring solution for your VoIP infrastructure, hit-up ya boy!

I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.
