Frequently asked questions.

Here's our most commonly asked questions about our telephone systems for schools.

›

How much do a new phone system cost?

In all honesty, it depends. Usually the 'size' of the system is the driving factor in the cost. But every school is different, and with different requirements come different costs.

Can you install in the half term or holidays?

Absolutely. We usually recommend that you upgrade your telephone system in the school half term or holiday break to ensure minimum downtime during the switch. Our team can be flexible to ensure we're installing at a time that suits you.

›

What if I'm part of a multi-academy trust?

That's not a problem. In fact, it may be more cost effective for you to share one cloud system that is 'segmented' into different parts (with each school or academy having their own part).

Having one 'umbrella' system helps reduce costs, as you can roll multiple sites into one.

›

Can I have my phone system configured to my liking?

Yep. We can configure your new phone system to your liking. Everything from the absence line to the incoming call flow, transferring, term closing times, hold music and more.

Our in-house support team can even make changes to your system remotely, so if you ever needed to make an adjustment. just give us a call.
