Mitel awarded 2007 TMC Labs Innovation Award presented by Customer Interaction Solutions Magazine

Johannesburg, 09 Oct 2007

Mitel has announced that Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) named the Mitel Customer Interaction Solutions as a 2007 TMC Labs Innovation Award winner.

Presented by Customer Interaction Solutions Magazine, the award honours products that demonstrate groundbreaking innovation and a significant contribution to the communications industry.

"Mitel has demonstrated a commitment to quality and to the further development of IP communications through its Customer Interaction Solutions," said Tom Keating, CTO and TMC Labs editorial director.

"Mitel deserves this great honour, and I look forward to seeing other innovative solutions from them as they continue to contribute to the future of IP communications."

Mitel`s Customer Interaction Solutions enables seamless business continuity during a network upgrade or in the event of a network outage or natural disaster.

Using Primary Rate Interface (PRI) and the switched networking feature, Mitel has the ability to launch a PSTN call automatically to reconnect the data linkage. This feature, enabled by the proprietary Digital XNet, is unique to Mitel and along with the integration of Microsoft`s clustering services, provides customers with unsurpassed availability for their contact centre operations.

This set-up ensures businesses are prepared to perform server maintenance and software upgrades at all times, and can continue to operate during a crisis.

"Mitel`s contact centre offerings provide a reliable, sophisticated and cost-effective contact centre solution," said Andy Bull, director for Mitel South Africa.

"Customer Interaction Solutions enables seamless business continuity during a network upgrade or in the event of a network outage or natural disaster. Organisations can maintain `business as usual` contact centre data flow for their contact centre operations at all times and virtually under any condition," said Bull
