Industries

A congregation isn't only the people in the room. It's everyone who joined from home, everyone who reads the bulletin, and everyone who needs to feel safe while they're there.

Hiscall designs, installs and supports phone systems, sound systems, sound masking, streaming infrastructure, digital signage, CCTV and access control for churches, synagogues, mosques and temples nationwide. One certified team installs it, and the same team answers when you call.

A house of worship needs robust communication technology to enhance services, engage the community, and ensure seamless operations, all on a budget that looks nothing like a corporate IT department's. Streaming capabilities have become essential for reaching members who can't attend in person and enabling hybrid worship experiences, and a safe environment for a large weekly gathering doesn't happen by accident. Hiscall designs the whole path, from the sanctuary to the livestream, and supports all of it with the same certified technicians who installed it.

How it fits together

From the sanctuary to the livestream

A congregation's reach extends well past the building itself, and its safety depends on systems most vendors never think to connect. Built as one system, both work together. Built from four separate vendors, both are the first things to fail on a Sunday morning.

Why one team

What actually changes when one team owns the whole system

A congregation that buys sound, streaming and security from three vendors owns the gaps between them too, usually discovered the morning of a service. Here is what that costs in practice.

Built for a congregation's budget and its needs, not adapted to them

Four capabilities that general low voltage contractors typically do not carry.

  • Streaming & hybrid worship. Extends a service to members who can't attend in person, without requiring a broadcast studio budget.
  • Sound masking. Keeps a quiet counseling or meeting room private in a building that was never designed for acoustic isolation.
  • Digital signage & video walls. Handles announcements and event information without a separate vendor for every screen.
  • Intercom & overhead paging. Keeps staff and volunteers connected across a large building during a busy service.

What we install

Every system across the building, from one team

Most congregations buy each system from a different vendor, then spend years getting them to talk to each other. We put them on one design and one support relationship, with your budget in mind.

Phone systems

VoIP and cloud-based phone systems sized to a single congregation or a multi-campus ministry.

Telecommunications

Cabling and infrastructure

Copper and fiber optic low voltage infrastructure installed by BICSI-certified technicians, sized to a single sanctuary or a full campus.

Network Cabling

Cameras & access control

CCTV security cameras and access control systems protecting the building during services and throughout the week, under Tennessee CCTV license #1405.

Security Solutions

Data networking & wireless internet

Data networking and wireless internet that carry a livestream and keep the whole building connected.

IT Services & Data Networking

Sound systems & audio-visual

Sound systems, sound masking and audio-visual equipment bringing clear sound and visuals to every seat.

Audio Visual

Digital signage & overhead paging

Digital signage, video walls, interactive displays/whiteboards and intercom/overhead paging keeping the congregation informed and connected.

Audio Visual

Congregations we work with every week

From a single sanctuary to a multi-campus ministry, with the same certified technicians on every job.

  • Churches, synagogues, mosques & temples. Sound, streaming and security scoped to a single congregation's actual budget, not sold as an enterprise package.
  • Multi-campus ministries. Consistent systems and support across every location, with one point of contact instead of a different vendor per campus.
  • Congregations adding streaming for the first time. Data networking and wireless internet built specifically to carry a reliable livestream.
  • Growing congregations. Sound systems and AV that scale from a small sanctuary to a larger space without starting over.

How we work

Five steps, and you know who to call at each one

Step 01

Survey

We come to you at no charge, look at what is already in place, and tell you honestly what should be replaced and what has life left in it.

Step 02

Design

You get a documented scope and clear pricing, built around your actual budget. For a multi-campus ministry, we design one standard that repeats cleanly across every location.

Step 03

Install

Installation is scheduled around your services, not around us.

Step 04

Train

On-site sessions for staff and volunteers, repeated as often as your team needs it.

Step 05

Support

You call us directly, not a queue, with 24/7/365 emergency response and unlimited moves, adds and changes.

Local technicians, coverage across the Midsouth and beyond

Two Tennessee offices put a certified Hiscall employee close by. Cloud-managed systems let us monitor, configure and resolve a great deal remotely, so a multi-campus ministry costs you far less time than it used to.

  • Dickson. Corporate headquarters and 25,000 square foot distribution facility, serving Middle Tennessee and the Nashville region. Reach the Dickson office directly at (615) 740-7771.
  • Knoxville. Branch office at 4620 Old Broadway, serving East Tennessee since 2001, with the same certified technicians and the same emergency response. Reach the Knoxville office directly at (865) 862-4650.
  • You reach a person. You work directly with a trained, certified, Hiscall-badged employee. Your needs are not outsourced to a call center overseas.
  • Beyond our two offices. We also have employees based in West Tennessee and Kentucky, and we support customers throughout the Midsouth region and several nationwide.

Other industries

The same team, built for eighteen industries

Reaching a community beyond the physical building is not the only reason a system has to work as one path. Every industry below gets the same design and support approach.

Questions we hear

Frequently asked questions

Can you set up livestreaming for hybrid worship?
Yes. Data networking and wireless internet are designed to carry a reliable livestream, letting members who can't attend in person still be part of the service.
Will the sound system actually reach every seat clearly?
Yes. Sound systems and audio-visual equipment are designed and installed to bring clear sound and clear visuals to every seat in the sanctuary, not just the front rows.
Can you help keep a large weekly gathering safe?
Yes. CCTV, access control and intercom/overhead paging are designed to help staff and volunteers keep a safe environment during services and large gatherings.
Do you work with our budget, not just enterprise pricing?
Yes. We design a documented scope and clear pricing around your actual budget, not a one-size-fits-all enterprise package.
Is the site survey really free?
Yes. We walk the building, document what is in place, and give you a scope and a price. There is no charge and no obligation to proceed.
Who answers if something goes down after hours?
A Hiscall employee. We are staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year for emergency response. Support is not outsourced, and the technicians who answer are the ones who know your installation.

Tell us what your congregation needs.

We will walk the building, look at what is already there, and give you a straight answer about what to replace and what to keep, with your budget in mind. No charge for the survey.
