## Mitel Reviews
  ### 1. Happy client but still monitoring

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 26, 2018

**What do you like best about Mitel?**

The seamless design which allows use of our phone system across multiple sites and devices.

**What do you dislike about Mitel?**

The price is becoming burdensome as we continue to grow and add more phones to our system. I also think the portal could be a little more intuitive and user friendly.

**What problems is Mitel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Seamless usage as we add more sites to our business. Call flow visualization, although I don't love the portal's design, is beneficial to us. Pre-programming holidays and business hours is great.

  ### 2. Phones with lots of features

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 26, 2018

**What do you like best about Mitel?**

This solution is very scalable and has many more features that our old system. My users can call support and get their phones set up to meet their individual needs.

**What do you dislike about Mitel?**

There was a learning curve on operating them. Also, users need to know their login for the phone. 

**What problems is Mitel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The benefit is a cost savings on a more robust system. Also, our remote workers can be a part of our office phone system which has improved inter-office communications.

The management interface could use some review and clean up.

Their support people are very good. They get right to the problem and solve it quickly.

The admin portal is hard to work around in and it is difficult to do some things like setting up main line voice messages and hunt groups. The users do not having to dial a 9 every time they  make a call.

It is easy to use and the users seem to like it.

What I like best about Shoretel is that if I miss a phone call I have the name and telelphone number (Caller ID) of the individual which makes it easy for getting back to them.

**Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2017

**What do you like best about Mitel?**

It is so easy to use and navigate.  I felt like an expert after only using ShoreTel for about a day because basic tasks are so simple to implement.  Even though it doesn't make a lot of sense for smaller offices, I kind of wish this was the default for everyone because making transfers/holds/multiple calls is just so simple and easy.

I've yet to encounter a problem from my short time using it.

It allows me to move through a large queue of calls quickly by wrapping up a current call and immediately moving on to the next call without having to do much other than 1-2 clicks of a mouse.  That's the biggest solution thus far.

  ### 49. So simple! 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Megan W. | Associate, Staffing and Recruiting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2017

**What do you like best about Mitel?**

My favorite feature about Shoretel is that I can click on any phone number on my screen to automatically be calling via my phone. I hate looking back and forth between screens as it definitely slows me down. Additionally, I like using the window at the top of my screen to just copy and paste numbers there as needed. 

**What do you dislike about Mitel?**

I feel like it goes down a LOT and we are required to get IT to come resolve the issue. to be honest, I am not sure if this is due to other internet connections or if it is Shoretel, but I do have to say that it can be extremely frustrating at times.

**Recommendations to others considering Mitel:**

Just make sure that you have a decent IT person who can help out whenever it shuts down. 

**What problems is Mitel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Speedy phone calls and ensuring clear connections on all ends. I have used this at multiple businesses and it appears to be the most ubiquitous across all companies I have worked for. 

  ### 50. ShoreTel Review

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rebecca M. | Associate Recruiter, Staffing and Recruiting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2017

**What do you like best about Mitel?**

Keyboard is easy to view and use. There are speed dials located on each dashboard and conference call options are available.

**What do you dislike about Mitel?**

I would say the chord being so long and large. I would prefer either a smaller chord or maybe a wireless option. Sometimes having that atop of my desk, it gets caught on things and is just annoying to manage. I had to move the entire phone to the corner of my desk and that has been proving to help.

**Recommendations to others considering Mitel:**

I would say it is definitely worth it due to all the functionality but depending on your profession, a wireless option might be a better move. No chords and less of a pain when the chords get stuck often.

**What problems is Mitel solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are trying to solve the problem of organization wide phones. These allow us to set conference calls and keep track of call logs and minutes.
