VCall+ turns your device into a virtual call point. Initiate a call-in, emergency call-in, lockdown, and more directly from VCall+. VCall+ initiates communications through classroom end-points (mic/speaker or messaging displays) to office admin phones and MapAssistIP software. Lockdown events are displayed within the app and prompt staff to check-in using the lockdown acknowledgement feature. VCall+ is integrated with MapAssistIP to visually display the location of call-ins and lockdown initiations on a school's floorplan based on the users' selected location. Configure the phone number of the initiating device (iPhone only) to pass through to the receiving admin phone. First responders or other staff are empowered to contact the initiating device directly when unable to communicate through the schools' internal intercom system (default). User management and security protocols ensure staff has access only to the appropriate functionality. Staff can save their favorite end-points for easy access as they move around the school.
