Green Bay Area Public School District (GBAPS) transformed its communication system by replacing its inflexible on-prem phone systems with Zoom Phone. This transition enabled the staff to work remotely and in hybrid environments, addressing the limitations of the previous setup. By leveraging the Zoom API, they integrated their security system with Zoom Phone, ensuring automatic phone calls to school safety personnel during security alerts.

 

Additionally, this transition facilitated a healthy work-life balance, allowing staff members to participate in evening board meetings from the comfort of their homes. The district's virtual school stood out by providing students with authentic GBAPS classroom teachers teaching their district’s curriculum.

Same reason why the University of Michigan's Ann Arbor, Flint, and Dearborn campuses have adopted the use of Zoom Phone. This transition allows faculty and staff to utilize their UM telephone number from anywhere, eliminating the need to be tied to a physical telephone at a desk and removing the necessity of using personal cell phone numbers for work purposes. Additionally, this change (will) lead to a significant reduction in new handsets on campus, contributing to electronic waste reduction and supporting the university's sustainability goals.

Zoom Phone's truly powerful! This is a testament to the quality of the platform, and its comprehensive range of inbound and outbound communication features, plus a number of useful integrations.

 

Even in other industries, North Suburban Synagogue Beth El utilizes a door access system over an ATA Analog line on the Zoom system, and a queue into which the people who answer the door can log in. 

 

Very amazing indeed!

Clear and consistent communication is vital. Schools, businesses and as well as other institutions should establish effective channels to update employees, customers, suppliers, and stakeholders about changes in operations, safety protocols, and any other relevant information. And Zoom Phone has been proven to be a very valuable and powerful tool to a lot of our clients for business continuity.
