eZuce is pleased to announce our open unified communication solutions portfolio and services offerings which include: 

SIPfoundry launches its EDU initiative, a comprehensive program designed to bring lower cost and modern communications to universities, colleges, and school districts. As a proven replacement for legacy (IP) PBX systems and as an open alternative to an all Microsoft infrastructure, the SIPfoundry sipXecs solution brings a robust all software solution with a sophisticated user experience to the higher education community.

The SIPfoundry EDU program is setup as a collaborative effort between universities and the SIPfoundry open source community to work together on a solution specifically designed for the EDU environment.  Universities are offered membership in the SIPfoundry EDU program and contribute financially and with resources. This "For EDU, By EDU" program offers significantly lower costs and a solution tailored to the diverse university environment.

Colorado State University (CSU) and Cedarville University are the first full members in this joint effort to transition from costly, limiting, legacy (IP) PBXs and build 21st century communications that provide a rich, connected experience for faculty, staff, students, IT department, and alumni. Colorado State University (CSU) and Cedarville University are now investing members of the SIPfoundry EDU program and serve as representatives of the higher education community; through active participation they are driving the future direction and defining requirements resulting in an open, interoperable communication solution.

Each month we will feature a sipXecs customer to share their product experiences and detail collaboration efforts with the SIPfoundry community. We are pleased to introduce Colorado State University (CSU), one of the original members and investing institutions in the SIPfoundry EDU program. CSU has recently migrated to the sipXecs platform within their facility and as a result users are now communicating and collaborating freely across the entire institution amongst students, faculty, administration, and alumni.

Patrick Burns, VP for Information Technology and Dean of Libraries at CSU, has been one of the early adopters of sipXecs in the higher education community and has now joined the SIPfoundry governing board of directors further solidifying his commitment to the open source project. Check out the video testimonial from Patrick Burns discussing his experiences with sipXecs and SIPfoundry Community.
