[rehab] vonage business

[Dick Davis]

Hi Kelsey,
I am afraid the technological questions you ask are beyond me.  I am
forwarding this to both the jobs and rehab lists to see if a kind
individual either has the answer or can help you find one.  I also suggest
you contact the International Braille and Technology Center at the
National Center for the Blind.  The phone there is 410-659-9314.  There
are many smart people there who can help you answer these kinds of
questions.

Subject: vonage business

Hi Dick,
I was hoping you could help me out or forward my inquiry to someone who
can.  I just found out at our company meeting today that we are switching
from a traditional phone service to Vonage Business.  I have no experience
with Vonage, so I was wondering if Vonage Business is accessible with
JAWS.  Also, can I still use my dual headset or would the state need to
purchase something else? All my experience has been with traditional phone
service and I therefore do not know anything about VOIP and assistive
technology.  I think they are starting this in the new year, so I'd like
to start researching this now so my employer can plan appropriate
alternatives is necessary.  Also, if the cloud based system is not
accessible with JAWS, would it be a reasonable accommodation for the
company to allow me to keep my traditional phone? I tried looking on
Vonage's website to see if there was anything about accessibility, but I
did not see anything.
Therefore, could you forward this inquiry to someone who might be able to
answer my question?
Thank you,
Kelsey Nicolay
