Description

We are an authorized reseller of NEC telephone systems, and have been for more than 20 years. NEC has been making phones for over 100 years, and we chose to work with them because of the focus on small- to medium-sized organizations. Their products are both reliable, flexible, and fairly priced. In 2010 we began providing VoIP service and equipment. Contact us to clearly explain the differences between an on-premise phone system and internet-based VoIP phone service, and how to make the best choice for your organization.

" I just wanted to say that I appreciate each and every one of you for providing us with incredible customer service. You have no idea how much you make my life easier with your great attitudes.

Alternative Technologies began in 1989 at Jerry Skomer's kitchen table in the East Bay. The Ma Bell corporate monopoly had been toppled by the Justice Department in 1982, but Jerry saw that many nonprofits had a difficult time understanding the choices and making the decisions necessary to take advantage of emerging new telecommunications options. He set about to remedy that in his beloved Volvo (our first company vehicle) which he used to park blocks away from customers' offices out of embarrassment! As the former executive director of CalPIRG, his affinity for nonprofits became — and remains — the founding ideal of Alternative.
