About i24
Telephone Answering Services to Call Management Solutions
“i24 Call Management Solutions was founded forty-nine years ago by my grandmother Florence and my parents, Ron and Audrey Blair. It was then called Alert Answering Service Ltd.. That makes me the third generation owner and a very hands-on operator.
i24 has experienced many technological changes in the past 49 years – internal and external. What hasn’t changed is our company culture.
We pride ourselves on our culture founded on the belief that success is a tide that raises all boats.
Today, i24 is the leader in telecommunications technology and customer service.
This year we were awarded the prestigious ‘Award of Excellence’ for the 22nd consecutive year by the Canadian Call Management Association (CAM-X).
Grandmother would be proud.”
