A system is configured to receive a request to set up a first video conference and another request to set up a second video conference, where the request is received from a client device and where the other request is received from another client device; obtain first information associated with an enterprise with which the client device is associated and second information associated with another, different enterprise with which the other client device is associated; determine whether the first information permits the client device to set up the first video conference and whether the second information permits the other client device to set up the second video conference; establish the first video conference when the first information permits the client device to set up the first video conference; and establish the second video conference when the second information permits the other client device to set up the second video conference.

Video conference service

A server device may receive information, associated with a request for a conferencing call, from a call manager, which is responsible for establishing and handling conferencing calls. The server device is a different device than the call manager. The server device may further determine to permit the conferencing call based on the received information, and provide an instruction to the call manager to permit the conferencing call in response to determining to permit the conferencing call.
