We used riot.im for 2-3 participants and it worked fine.
Maybe somebody has more experience with it?

#42Uberconference.com, although admittedly I've seen Zoom frequently and I'm starting to see Google Meet in my org (ask but ubercobference support video). For audio, it federally depends on where people are calling from (India tends to eliminate a few potions), if it's internal, and the number (100+ changes things)
I love uberconference and use it whenever call reliability is really important because participants can always dial-in in the worst case scenario.
One interesting edge case I ran into with uberconference was that I was trying to setup a sales call with someone behind an onerous corporate firewall that blocked all P2P traffic, and their connection to uberconference. The only solutions that were known to work on their network were Zoom and Webex.

I will note that I've had some trouble with Uberconference when calling US to India, although that may have been the phones/conference rooms that the teams in India were calling from. That said, I used to use it while traveling in Italy to run meetings in the US and the call quality was great.

#44Twilio conference lines - cost $1/mo plus 1 cent/caller/minute. Hard to beat.
We've been using their sample twiml as our business conference line for 5 years. It's outstanding and unbelievably cheap.
