July 15 2008 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
MTM Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: MTMCD), a leading national provider
of innovative IT solutions and services to Global 2000 and mid-size
companies, today announced the successful completion of a Cisco�
IP-based unified communications solution for St. Helena Unified
School District (SHUSD), located in Napa County California, that
provides voice, video, mobility and presence services to more than
1,500 K-12 students, their families, and 250 district employees.
�To say we are excited about what our new solution will enable us
to do is an understatement,� said SHUSD Superintendent Allan
Gordon. �We no longer have to worry about when our system will go
down next or how long it will take to restore. And that says
nothing of the many new communication, collaboration, and
cost-savings advantages we now have throughout the district.�
Working closely with SHUSD to evaluate its aging phone system and
ultimate goals, MTM Technologies implemented a Cisco Power over
Ethernet (PoE) solution that provides power and data connectivity
over the IP infrastructure. To address the school district�s core
communication issues, MTM Technologies deployed Cisco Unified
Communications Manager, the powerful call-processing component of
the Cisco Unified Communications solution that provides voice,
video, mobility, and presence services. In addition, MTM-a Cisco
Gold Partner - added Cisco Unity, a full-featured voice and unified
messaging platform empowering users to access e-mail, voice, and
fax messages from a single inbox anytime, anywhere, and on any
device. The deployment provides more reliable communication and
improved safety with more than 150 Cisco 7900 Series IP phones
available throughout the school district, empowering everyone from
teachers to administrators to take full advantage of SHUSD�s new
converged voice and data network from their desks. Messages on note
paper are a thing of the past as the systems� new voicemail
capabilities are expected to provide significant improvements in
communication and productivity. �We were very pleased to get the
call from Superintendent Gordon to work with him again on another
key project, this time in support of his goal of fostering
�world-class schools� and leading by example as a showcase district
in the Small School Districts� Association of California,� said
Steve Stringer, President and Chief Operating Officer, MTM
Technologies. �Our advanced Cisco certification specialization in
unified communications and significant education-industry
experience enabled us to quickly evaluate their challenges, base
our design on current and future needs, and implement a solution
that delivered outstanding communication reliability,
functionality, and administration to help St. Helena achieve its
goal of fostering �world-class schools�.� SHUSD is eager to use its
new robust infrastructure to deploy additional advanced solutions,
including wireless connectivity throughout the school district and
IP-based video surveillance. �The possibilities are almost
limitless with this platform,� noted Steven McElroy, Network
Specialist at St. Helena Unified School District. To learn more
