About Us
History
Discount Telecom was established in 1989 to provide local businesses and
organizations with telephone systems and cabling services, at discount
prices. Since that time, the company has grown significantly and now has a
sales turnover in excess of $1.5 million. It employs over 15 experienced
and qualified staff. Now with the addition of our networking
services department, this will make Discount Telecom a single source for
communications and network solutions.
The President
The founder and President is Shawn Turner who has been a technician since
the age of 16, has developed a substantial customer base of clients in the
Sarasota and Manatee county areas. This customer base has grown on the
honest advice by Shawn to his customers and by an unmatched desire to
provide the best maintenance service in the area.
Product Range
Telephone systems have changed greatly since the formation of the company.
Features such as voice mail, auto attendant, T1 integration and computer telephony are now
standard parts of a phone system and are fully supported by Discount
Telecom. Most leading brands of equipment are supplied, although Inter-Tel
and NEC/Nitsuko lead the product range. Systems start from simple 3 line
key
systems to multi-site systems with hundreds of lines.
IP telephony is now a viable option, particularly for multiple site
offices
or even for mobile staff members. Here, the cost of long
distance / out of state calls can be eliminated altogether. This is an
exciting technology with huge potential. Discount Telecom has partnered
with
the leading providers in this industry including Inter-Tel and Cisco.

the supply of PC's, servers, peripherals and networking
hardware
