<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;I am working with a K-12 school division
where we are deploying a Cisco VoIP Solution across numerous schools. &nbsp;We
have the Board office and several Schools already on the Cisco solution
currently using Singlewire (formerly known as Berbee) InformaCast for paging,
with Atlas Zone Control Modules to tie into existing analog over head paging,
as well as some new Atlas IP Speakers. &nbsp;However, for a few reasons (which
I won't get into now) they want to investigate alternate solutions for the
paging platform. &nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;&nbsp; They require real time paging capabilities to
some IP phones and overhead speakers simultaneously (we are achieving this
today through the use of the Atlas Zone Control modules). &nbsp;They also need
a built in bell scheduler.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;&nbsp; The two other paging vendors I am going to
start looking into is IPCelerate (I believe the IPSession application) and
Syn-Apps(I believe the SA-Announce&nbsp;and SA-Broadcast applications). I am
curious to know what others experience has been with there products. &nbsp;We
want something that is easy for the end user to use, and can provide
a&nbsp;seamless&nbsp;high quality integration.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;&nbsp; Also does anyone currently use
/&nbsp;recommend&nbsp;any other vendor software for paging that will meet the
requirements above?<o:p></o:p></p>
