We use GoToMeeting, which is reliable and includes POTS and VOIP voice
conferencing.

join.me seems to be a platform for marketing their paid service, much
as they do with the free version of their main product, LogMeIn.

You can acheive great economy through free and open-source software.
Free services, on the other hand, usually have a gotcha.
