Discussion

New Provider for VoIP would be GoTo.


We are currently paying $2,514.59 a month for our POTS lines.  If we switch to GoTo it will cost $1,594.55 a month for a 5 year contract. 


This will save us $920.04 a month.


Savings for one year - $11,040.48


Savings for the five year term - $55,202.40


System would include new phones for every classroom and office.  We will keep all the same phone numbers and will be able to dial extension to extension district wide without having to tie up the main phone line in the offices.  It will be fully customizable to our needs as a whole.
