Sangoma Technologies Corporation (TSX: STC; Nasdaq: SANG) (“Sangoma” or the “Company”), a trusted industry leader uniquely offering businesses a choice of on-premises, cloud-based, or hybrid Communications as a Service solutions, announced that Dowling Catholic High School in Des Moines, Iowa, improved campus safety and communication through Sangoma’s Switchvox Unified Communications platform, integrated with Quicklert’s AI-powered safety and alerting technology.

Dowling Catholic High School (DCHS) needed to bring together multiple communication systems across classrooms, offices, and public spaces. The school’s separate tools for bells, paging, intercom, and emergency alerts were difficult to manage and costly to maintain. These limitations affected how quickly staff and teachers could respond during time-sensitive situations and created unnecessary complexity for administrators.

To solve these challenges, the school selected Sangoma’s Unified Communications (UC) platform, Switchvox, integrated with Quicklert’s safety technology to create one dependable system that manages both everyday communications and critical campus alerts.

Transforming Campus Communications

Sangoma’s Unified Communications solution (Switchvox platform) gave DCHS a single, web-based system for managing voice, paging, voicemail, and messaging. Administrators can control the entire system from one interface, reducing time spent on maintenance, and eliminating the need for multiple disconnected tools.

Through its integration with Sangoma's UC offerings, available across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud, Quicklert enables campus-wide paging and announcements as well as 911 notifications and internal panic functions directly from a Sangoma phone. The Quicklert platform provides live video announcements, live video intercom, hallway and classroom clock functions, personalized bells and AI-based video surveillance, and two-way communications. Together, these features improve communication, allow for faster response times, and strengthen overall campus safety.

The Results

• Unified management: One secure platform for all communications.
• Improved safety: AI weapon detection, panic buttons, and instant alerts help staff act quickly.
• Lower costs: Consolidation reduced maintenance and operating expenses.
• Better experience: Reliable communication tools for staff, students, and teachers.

“Our teachers feel more at ease now. They have a sense of reassurance that they are never alone. If there is ever an incident in their classroom, we can get eyes and ears right away and see and walk them through it,” commented DCHS Principal, Matt Meendering.
