Maumee City Schools
Maumee City Schools upgraded to an advanced on-site phone system to increase productivity, help people connect and simplify updates.
At a Glance
Feeling trapped by their current (and obsolete) communications system, Maumee City Schools knew it was time for a change. School secretaries had been acting as a switchboard for hundreds of incoming calls, and system administration was cumbersome. Making the switch to Mitel MiVoice Connect brought drastic improvements that the district expects to benefit from for many years.
"My team and I really want to be able to do the right thing for people, and we felt like we were being held hostage by the previous phone system. With MiVoice Connect, we found the features, simplicity and control we were missing."
—Jason Dugan, Director of Technology, Maumee City Schools
