Spaces are within teams.  For example, all members of the eLearning department are in the eLearning team.  Within that team, we have separate conversation spaces for various purposes.

Space/Team example

 

 

Calls

This feature does not yet have the capability to dial phone numbers, but can be used to start a Webex Teams Call, which is similar to a Webex Meeting.  Just enter an email address for whomever you wish to conference with.
