DALLAS, Oct. 15, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mitel® (Nasdaq:MITL) (TSX:MNW), a
global leader in real-time business, cloud and mobile communications, today
outlined its strategic vision to address the rapidly evolving mobile-first
world. The strategy is focused on eliminating technical barriers between
enterprise and mobile silos and is powered by Mitel's industry-leading cloud
offering.
Leveraging the unique market intersection of mobile, enterprise and cloud
technologies, Mitel enables innovative new real-time business models as the
lines between consumers and businesses blur. According to a recent survey*, more
than 80 percent of enterprises still do not have their business communications
platform tied to their mobile networks.
In announcing the strategy, Mitel President and CEO Rich McBee said, "For many
of us, the first thing we do in the morning is check our mobile. Increasingly
everyday business communications are initiated on a handheld device rather than
a desk phone or PC. Using mobile as our entry point, Mitel is leveraging rapid
advances in cloud and 4G LTE mobile capabilities to give businesses and
consumers better access to the mobile, collaboration and information tools they
demand."
At the core of Mitel's strategy is a vision of the mobile enterprise, a mobile-
first, cloud-enabled and millennial-focused world where communications access,
tools and information that have historically been tied to a physical location
are seamless, and where handoffs between enterprise and mobile networks are
instant and undetectable.
Mitel is advancing and accelerating the cloud-powered mobile enterprise:
* Power mobile enterprise using the real-time cloud: Mitel's market-leading
cloud portfolio enables the delivery of rich new mobile services allowing
service providers to deliver real-time voice, video and collaboration
services, small businesses to take advantage of large enterprise capability
at a fraction of the price, and large enterprises to gain speed and
flexibility in mixed hardware and software environments.
* Leverage 4G LTE leadership and innovation: With Mitel's leadership in
software-based 4G LTE mobile networking solutions, mobile carriers on three
continents have gained a first-to-market advantage with Mitel's VoWiFi
solutions, launching Wi-Fi Calling services. The intersection of IP-based
4G mobile networks and the pervasive availability of enterprise WiFi is
breaking down historical technical barriers between mobile services and in-
building network access. VoWiFi offers service parity and a consistent user
experience to traditional cellular voice services creating new opportunities
for mobile carriers to offer competitive new services and revenue streams.
* New business accelerator brings rich mobile applications and services to the
mobile enterprise: Mitel has established a dedicated technology accelerator
which brings together some of Mitel's brightest engineers and technology
strategists working directly with forward-thinking customers to develop,
test and bring to market innovative new real-time mobile applications and
cloud services.
Today Mitel also announced a series of products and services which leverage
real-time, cloud and mobile technologies to lay the foundation of the mobile
enterprise.
