Our corporate office is going to be moving to a new facility and my VP is wondering if we should go with a whole new system or just upgrade the Meridian Option 61 we currently have. They are really interested in doing VOIP since we have numerous field personnel and remote locations but I would still like to have majority of the office personnel hardwired to the switch. We currently have about 400 office employees and about 300 field personnel. I thought I had talked my VP into going with the upgrade of the Option 61 but a sales person from Mitel contacted him and said that they can do everything Nortel can at half the cost. I have heard of Mitel but have never worked or seen their equipment. Can someone give me some insight into Mitel, I have been looking around on the net trying to find some more info on them but haven't had much luck. Also curious if they were called something prior to Mitel or have they recently merged with someone.

good choice, some of us (me) might respond to a thread 20 times, if your runnung a problem. but a fact/opinion thread, i looked at it a couple of times after i posted. but thanks for the star. remember, i am a tech, and i post from my background.. unlike a sales person, i know what it takes to make it work and i know when sales dumps the wronge product on the wronge customer.. like an avaya, when the customer wanted a pbx... (joke for an avaya buddy)
