Case Study: European Marine Energy Centre achieves modern, cost-saving communications with Sangoma PBXact

European Marine Energy Centre Takes the Plunge into Powerful New Communications Platform with Sangoma

The European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC), the world’s only center of its kind for wave and tidal energy research, needed to replace an aging Mitel phone system that was costly, hard to use, and lacking modern features. EMEC wanted a more reliable, flexible communications platform with better conferencing and mobile capabilities, so it turned to Sangoma and its PBXact unified communications solution.

Sangoma implemented PBXact with Sangoma IP phones, helping EMEC move to a future-proof system that eliminated ISDN lines, improved usability, and added advanced features like robust video conferencing and softphone support. The deployment was completed in just six weeks, and EMEC reported lower operating costs, easier scaling, and a much better user experience across its main site and seven remote locations.
