We have partnered with Total Communications for several years and built a great working relationship with them. For our data backup solutions, networking configuration and maintenance, and virtual server and storage needs, their sales team and service technicians have always assisted us in a professional and timely manner. They are a vendor I trust with our systems, and I highly recommend them.
Working with Total Communications has been great. The service staff have been quick to respond to and resolve any issues that arise.
Ashland University's goal is to make its community feel safe, with over 1,200 students and residents living on campus, as well as commuter students, faculty, and staff. To increase safety and augment its security presence, Ashland partnered with Total Communications to expand its video surveillance to over 200 cameras across three campuses. With Total Communications' help, Ashland found the right solutions for its needs and continues to have a reliable resource for licensing and service.
Every few years we have Total Communication look at our telecommunication bills and price the market for us. After discovering that our monthly costs were going to increase by over 300%, Total was able to get us into a better contract, ultimately saving us $40,000 annually.
We have built a relationship of trust with Total Communications over the years which includes consistent responsiveness, follow-through, and attention to detail for planning and execution of many kinds of business-critical needs.
