The VoIP (Voice over IP) telephony service is available to all schools using the LGfL 2.0 network. It has been uniquely designed to provide a cost effective, centrally managed and fully supported telephony system.

This competitively-priced service offers long term cost savings with no line rental, free calls to other LGfL VoIP establishments, low-cost calls, as well as extensive accounts information and reports.

Unlike conventional systems, IP telephony (aka VoIP - Voice over IP) offers greater flexibility in the number of lines it can accommodate and the features you can select. Your system can easily be scaled up at any time simply by adding more handsets, with each new handset having the potential to make and receive external calls. The only limit comes from the number of available handsets and the way in which those are configured.

To enhance the physical service, a dedicated website offers an information resource as well as management and configuration capabilities to school staff. Every staff member can access the site securely, via a USO login, to find a number of phone directories. These contain the details of other staff members, parent contact numbers (obtained via a secure link to the school MIS) as well as personal contacts and school-specific numbers which can be configured as needed.
