    • VoIP

    Arizona State Schools Why upgrade to VoIP? "ASDB Agency staff members have worked very hard to find ways in which to avoid a reduction in force and still provide required educational and support services to visually impaired and hearing impaired children and their families throughout Arizona during this time of economic decline and budget deficits. The Agency has become very price-conscious and the ever-increasing cost for telecommunications and support services through Arizona Telecommunications Services (ATS) is a major concern."
