Torrence joins the ShareOhio education technology alliance

Torrence is proud to be a member of the ShareOhio alliance. ShareOhio is a service partnership between the Northern Buckeye Education Council and DataServ that offers training and Managed Technology services to the educational community and other public sector entities. Torrence brings our unique skill set and expertise to the alliance, as well as decades of experience supporting K-12 and higher education with Sound, Video, and Security solutions.

ShareOhio services bring together the public and private sectors in a unique partnership to service the technology needs of Ohio school districts.

ShareOhio recognizes that modern education cannot take place without robust and reliable internet connectivity. For most schools systems, managing a district-wide network has become too difficult. ShareOhio provides all the tools needed, from consultation, design and project management, to installation, hosting, and onsite service and support.

Our most recent collaboration with ShareOhio has been providing networked VOiP paging solutions or “Virtual PA” to a growing number of Ohio school districts. Virtual PA ties all of the school’s communication tools into a single broadcast and emergency management system. The school’s existing VOiP phones, computer network, and security systems are linked to our Digital Paging Gateway/Controller which manages general and emergency paging, automated lockdowns, scheduled announcements, and bell schedules.
