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

Dowling Catholic High School (DCHS) needed to bring together several communication systems across classrooms, offices and public spaces. 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 sensitive situations and created unnecessary complexity for administrators.

To address these issues, the school chose Sangoma’s Unified Communications (UC) platform, Switchvox, integrated with Quicklert’s safety technology to create a reliable 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 to manage voice, paging, voicemail and messaging. Administrators can control the entire system from one interface, reducing time spent on maintenance and eliminating the need for disconnected tools.

Through its integration with Sangoma’s UC offerings, available on-premises, hybrid and in the 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 offers live video announcements, live video intercom, clock functions in hallways and classrooms, custom bells and AI-based video monitoring, as well as two-way communications. Together, these features improve communication, enable faster response times and strengthen overall campus safety.

The Results

  • Unified management: one secure platform for all communications.
  • Increased safety: AI weapon detection, panic buttons and instant alerts help staff respond quickly.
  • Reduced costs: consolidation lowered maintenance and operating expenses.
  • Improved experience: reliable communication tools for staff, students and teachers.

“Our teachers now feel more at ease. They know they are never alone. If an incident occurs in their classroom, we can immediately see and hear what is happening and support them,” said DCHS Director Matt Meendering.

Education: A Key Sector for Sangoma

The deployment at DCHS reflects Sangoma’s continued growth in the education market, where communication, safety, and compliance are major priorities. Sangoma’s Unified Communications portfolio supports schools with secure, scalable, and cost-effective solutions that adapt to diverse infrastructures and budgets.
