When word of Mitel and Zoom’s strategic partnership broke in mid-September, the news didn’t take long to spread. In North America and internationally, publications like ChannelE2E, it-daily, and Boursier.com covered the deal.
This piece from Computer Weekly overviews the agreement and the workplace trends driving it.
If you want to delve deeper into the deal, Channel Futures offers a different perspective. It focuses on the channel’s reaction to the partnership and examines the opportunities and benefits it presents for partners.
Mitel also made news earlier in September by unveiling its new Common Communications Framework. An open blueprint for interoperability, the framework helps customers find the ideal balance between flexibility and control. The announcement also included the launch of Mitel Secure Cloud in the UK and Germany. Bernhard Lück from ip-insider.de outlined how this new offering benefits highly regulated industries.
Days after the Mitel/Zoom announcement, CTO, Luiz Domingos, joined Douglas Green on the Telecom Reseller podcast to recap Mitel’s exciting September. The in-depth interview covers the rationale behind the new partnership and how the Common Communications Framework marks an essential evolution of Mitel’s hybrid unified communications portfolio.
Christophe Chamy, Mitel’s VP for Southern Europe, also sat down for an interview last month. He discussed several topics with EDI Magazine in France, including the factors driving organizations to invest in modernizing their communications solutions and Mitel’s competitive advantage.
Finally, VP of International Sales Simon Skellon chatted with Charlotte Hathway from Comms Business about Mitel’s continued integration of Unify and how, one year later, the acquisition has allowed the combined company to differentiate itself further from the competition. The conversation also covered Mitel’s recently released combined portfolio strategy and the major trends driving business communications in 2025.
