OTTAWA, 2012-03-26 14:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Mitel (Nasdaq:MITL), a leading provider of Unified Communications and
Collaboration (UCC) software solutions, and Hub Telecom, a subsidiary of
Aeroports de Paris specializing in telecommunications services, today announced
the launch of an innovative, cloud-based service based on the Mitel
Communications Director solution and VMware(r) virtualization solutions. Hub
Telecom's cloud-based offering, being delivered at Paris' Charles-de-Gaulle and
Orly airports, gives its customers an in-office collaboration experience
anywhere they have an Internet connection, dramatically increasing their
productivity regardless of where they may be working or what mobile device they
may be using.
'Our new offering with Hub Telecom clearly illustrates how UCC is moving from a
hardware-based infrastructure model to being managed as just another virtual
machine, enabling IT to consolidate its resources while simultaneously
delivering advanced services to its customers,' said Lionel Hovsepian, Mitel's
vice president of Sales for South EMEA. 'Mitel's virtualized solutions are
well-positioned to reap the benefits of this major shift in the industry.'
Hosting the solution in its data center at Roissy - Charles de Gaulle, Hub
Telecom manages all aspects of the UCC offering and its associated
infrastructure and customer support. The UCC offering provides a wide range of
features for users, including integrated access to their collaboration tools,
including voice, video, presence, secure instant messaging, audio and web
conferencing, document sharing, voice messaging and email. Users also have
access to 'one number dialing' which provides a single number where they can be
reached regardless if they're at their desk or on the road.
'The Hub Telecom UC service's use of virtualization and UCC is very innovative,
but its real value lies in the advanced features it offers our end-user
customers,' said Nicolas Lehovetzki, director of the telecommunications
Business Unit at Hub Telecom.
'Hub Telecom's UC solution is simple and intuitive. It reproduces the features
of traditional telephony, while delivering new advanced features to meet the
evolving needs of users,' adds Soline Olszanski, marketing director for Hub
Telecom.
Hub Telecom's UCC offering is available now.
