Viking Electronics Recommends Ooma AirDial to its Customers Seeking POTS Replacement

Ooma, Inc., a smart communications platform for businesses and
consumers, today announced that Viking Electronics, after extensive
testing, is recommending Ooma AirDial® to its customers seeking
POTS replacement solutions.
Viking Electronics (https://vikingelectronics.com/) designs and
manufactures more than 500 security and communications products in
the United States, including emergency phones, entry systems,
elevator phones, campus safety phones and more.
Many Viking products, sold through a nationwide distributor
network, utilize copper-wire phone lines, also known as Plain Old
Telephone Service or POTS. As POTS lines approach obsolescence,
monthly rates are going up dramatically while reliability is
decreasing.
Distributors and end users often ask Viking for guidance on
replacing POTS lines. After exploring available options, Viking
selected Ooma AirDial for in-depth evaluation by its engineering
team and they confirmed that AirDial is reliable and capable of
successfully replicating POTS connections across the wide range of
Viking products.
Ooma AirDial (https://www.ooma.com/airdial) provides turnkey
replacement for POTS lines by combining the Ooma AirDial base
station with virtual analog phone service and a data connection
through a wireless network. AirDial deployments can be remotely
managed through an online portal with automated alerts, reducing
expensive on-site visits and lowering incident response time.
As part of their testing process, Viking engineers were able to
enhance compatibility through troubleshooting assistance from Ooma
and by applying updated AirDial firmware that Ooma developed in
response to customer and partner requests.
“We thoroughly evaluated Ooma AirDial and it passed all of our
tests with flying colors,” said Greg Yocom, Senior Sales Engineer
for Viking Electronics. “It was also important to us that Ooma
supported our engineers and is continuously improving their
product. We’re confident in recommending AirDial.”
“Alarm companies, elevator service operators, building owners
and property managers know and trust Viking Electronics for
reliable hardware and customer service, which is why we’re honored
that Ooma AirDial has passed Viking’s rigorous testing and now has
their approval,” said Chris Burgy, vice president of corporate
development at Ooma. “We look forward to helping Viking
distributors and end customers navigate through the process of POTS
replacement, and helping achieve greater reliability and lower
operating costs for mission-critical equipment.”
