innovative, first-of-its-kind device for the personal office meeting
space. Created in response to customer and market demand for easier,

A single sleek and compact product with touch-screen simplicity that is
easy to deploy and use, Mitel UC360 changes workplace collaboration
from a special, pre-scheduled event into a spontaneous, natural part of
every productive work day. As part of the company's ongoing commitment
to incorporate the voice of customers into product development, Mitel
worked closely with its customer base to design and test the Mitel
UC360.

"Mitel UC360 setup is a breeze, which makes for quick and easy
deployment wherever they are needed," said Rick DeClerk, Manager,
Network Communications, Central Technology Services. "With this kind of
solution for the personal office meeting space, collaboration will
happen anytime we are ready -- not just when a conference room is
available."

Research conducted by Frost and Sullivan* showed that of 3500
organizations, 72 percent of companies that use advanced UCC
technologies gained a clear competitive advantage, compared to 46
percent of companies that didn't deploy them.

"In order to maximize collaboration opportunities and increase
productivity across the workplace, a solution should be easy to use,
priced to allow deployment across the organization, include
high-definition video, audio and remote collaboration, and accommodate
approximately 4 participants --the typical number in the majority of
productive collaboration sessions," said Melanie Turek, vice president,
Research, Enterprise Communications & Collaboration at Frost and
Sullivan. "Up until now, many conferencing and collaboration solutions
haven't been able to satisfy that need."

Priced at less than US$2000, the Mitel UC360 is set to disrupt the
market, currently characterized by expensive and complicated options,
with an affordably priced alternative that will enable broad scale
deployment in personal offices where most collaboration takes place.

Based on Mitel's flexible and open Freedom architecture, the Mitel
UC360 is designed to industry standards and to work with leading video
collaboration, telepresence, audio conferencing and IP-PBX solutions.
Interoperability testing has been initiated with established in room
and video vendors including Vidyo and Polycom.

Interoperability with Vidyo is being demonstrated this week at Mitel's
Business Partner Conference. "UC360's open, standards-based design
enables seamless interoperability with Vidyo's unique, software-based
telepresence solution," said Ashish Gupta, Vidyo's CMO and SVP
Corporate Development. "The UC360 is an outstanding complement to
Vidyo's high-quality, highly scalable video communications platform and
when combined, the solution simplifies instant visual collaboration
throughout the enterprise."

"Our customers have repeatedly told us they were frustrated by the
technical complexity, hefty cost and need for advanced scheduling
required by existing collaboration solutions," said Ron Wellard,
executive vice president of Mitel Communications Solutions. "Mitel
UC360 is our response to those customers. It is as easy to deploy and
use as a phone, and delivers a high-quality, rich experience that
aligns with the natural way colleagues work together, allowing
organizations to reap the full productivity benefits and cost savings
of workplace collaboration."
