I've become a BIG fan of Zoom (zoom.us). It's best known for its video conference abilities, but the call-in features also work amazingly well and they have lots of international call-in numbers. The price is very reasonable, and most importantly, it's been more reliable than anything that I've used and I don't have to worry about managing upgrades/special hardware, etc.
