Systems and methods are provided for facilitating communication between two or more incompatible communication application. A first request is transmitted from a first communication application to open a communication channel with a conference server. The conference server includes a program for facilitating communication between incompatible communication applications. After receiving the first request transmitted by the first electronic device, the server establishing a communication channel with the first electronic device operating a first communication application and establishes a second communication channel with a second electronic device operating a second communication application. The conference server then facilitates communication between the first communication channel and the second communication channel, e.g., by converting communication signals sent through the first communication application into communication signals compatible with the second communication application and vice versa.
