Sangoma and Quicklert Announce Strategic Partnership to Help Schools Comply with Alyssa's Law and Enhance Campus Safety
Sangoma Technologies Corporation (TSX:STC, NASDAQ:SANG) ("Sangoma"), a trusted industry leader uniquely offering businesses a choice of on-premises, cloud-based, or hybrid Communications as a Service solutions, and Quicklert, a pioneer in AI-powered communications, emergency notification and security technology emergency communication and safety platforms, are proud to announce a strategic go-to-market partnership to enhance safety and communications across the education sector, and expanding into other industries such as healthcare, government, hospitality, and retail.
This partnership is strategically aligned with Sangoma's commitment to delivering solutions that address the unique needs of vertical markets. Starting with the education sector, Sangoma and Quicklert are enabling schools to meet critical safety mandates such as Alyssa's Law, which requires public elementary and secondary school buildings to be equipped with silent panic alarms that directly notify law enforcement in case of emergencies. This partnership between Sangoma and Quicklert ensures schools are fully equipped with integrated voice, video, and emergency response technologies—unified under one platform—so they can act quickly when every second matters.
"We are committed to helping schools build safe, smart campuses where students and educators feel secure," said Charles Salameh, CEO of Sangoma. "By partnering with Quicklert, we're combining best-in-class communications with proactive emergency alerting. Together, we can help schools meet legal safety requirements while reducing operational complexity and cost."
The joint solution enables school districts to unify their Public Address (PA) systems, bells, intercoms, clocks, video surveillance, panic buttons, front office consoles, access control, IP communications, and emergency alerting into a single unified experience powered by Sangoma and Quicklert.
Several school districts have already experienced the impact of the Sangoma and Quicklert solution:
- Dowling Catholic High School (Iowa), with Quicklert's platform and devices modernized its entire campus by replacing outdated PA, intercom, clock and bell systems with video intercoms, Live video broadcast and AI-based video surveillance, one-touch emergency help functions and local 911 alerts—connected through Sangoma's communication solution.
- Great Hearts Schools of Texas needed to conform to Texas 911 laws, providing location information to first responders and internal resources. In order to do this, they would have required a DID line to every single classroom to provide this location information. After months of struggling with other solutions, they adopted Quicklert to provide instant, silent alerts off 911 calls - with location information - across 14 different campuses throughout Texas, all integrated with Sangoma's UCaaS Solution (Switchvox). Thanks to the Sangoma integration, they were able to install and run the system in under an hour.
"Our mission has always been to deliver a single, intelligent platform that makes schools safer and communications simpler. Partnering with Sangoma will help us to achieve that mission on a global scale," said Alok Jain, CEO & Founder of Quicklert. "Whether it's complying with Alyssa's Law, preparing for an unthinkable emergency or day to day communication and security, we give schools the tools to respond instantly and effectively."
This partnership will be rolled out to school districts across North America via Sangoma's extensive partner network and Quicklert's existing education safety programs.
Sangoma and Quicklert are building safer schools—one campus at a time.
