CWT supports its travel consultants by making it comfortable and productive to work from home. However, the cost of supporting small office / home office (SOHO) workers was immense. With plans to grow to 40 SOHOs, CWT was eager to find a better solution.

Working together, Mitel® and its solution provider, migrated CWT’s Canadian operations from a Mitel PBX infrastructure to Voice over IP (VoIP) switches, enabling the company to implement the advanced Mitel Teleworker Solution – and attain $180,000 in savings over three years. The new Mitel platform also delivers a broad range of benefits with remote management, advanced contact center management and toll bypass.

CWT’s home-based consultants now link directly into their office’s main phone system with just a single Internet connection. Canadian headquarters in Mississauga has also traded its analog lines for a single Primary Rate Interface (PRI), and the four branch offices are following suit.
