When did complexity become the norm?

Monday, February 27th, 2012

Break free with ShoreTel’s cost-cutting brilliant simplicity.

If your IP phone system is only IP-enabled or just bolted-together, it’s going to be complex. And this complexity creates costly co-dependence: from service and support contracts, to expensive training requirements, to forklift upgrades that punish your company for growth.

But ShoreTel’s all-in-one solution is different. Designed from the ground up expressly for IP, it works for organizations of all sizes. Built to scale with ease according to your needs, it won’t hold you hostage, nor hold you back.

And because it cuts complexity and costs even as it scales and grows, with ShoreTel you won’t pay a high price for success. In fact, ShoreTel has the industry’s lowest total cost of ownership. Lower than Avaya. Lower than Cisco. Guaranteed. No wonder businesses have rated it the best VoIP provider seven years in a row.*

It’s that simple. It’s that brilliant.
