ETA Wins Mitel's Virtualized Voice Partner of the Year Award

Expert Technology Associates (ETA), a leading voice and data communications provider, is proud to announce that it is the winner of Mitel's 2012 Virtualized Voice Partner of the Year award, a distinction given to the Mitel (News - Alert) Partner with the most combined success, technical skill and expertise surrounding virtualized voice technology.

The award was presented to ETA executives at Mitel's annual Business Partner Conference in San Diego, CA (News - Alert) on June 21, 2012. Mitel, a global provider of business communications and collaboration software and services, designs and manufactures the technology that fuels ETA's on premise and virtualized business phone system solutions.

In addition to being awarded the Virtualized Voice Partner of the Year distinction, ETA was also recognized at the Business Partner Conference as a Mitel Platinum Partner, as it has been for the past 10 years.

"For us, these acknowledgements speak to our team's technical expertise, dedication to continuous learning and passion for succeeding on our clients' behalf," said Craig Marowitz, ETA's president. "We are thrilled to bethe Partner to receive Mitel's Virtualized Voice Partner of the Year honor. The existence of this award indicates how relevant virtualized voice has become for both providers and businesses using the solution and how significant it will be in the future."

Mitel's virtualized voice technology allows Mitel unified communication applications, including vMCD and vApps, to run on VMware's virtualized platform, thereby enabling businesses to virtualize Mitel call control and UC applications right along with their computing infrastructure. Including telephony in the overall virtualization strategy helps organizations complete the virtualization of their data center and wholly realize the IT consolidation benefits, energy reduction, and cost savings that come with virtualizing infrastructure.

"Great partners are the lifeblood of Mitel's growth," said Phil Keenan, Mitel's executive vice president for North America. "For many of our customers, these organizations serve as trusted advisors and partners, helping them to architect how their employees collaborate. We're proud to recognize these organizations at this year's Business Partner Conference."

Mitel also recognizes Partners through their Technical Accreditation Program (TAP), which distinguishes Partners who achieve a higher level of competency in a core solution. ETA recently earned the title of Mitel Virtualized Voice Specialist through TAP after completing a number of technical certifications at various company levels and demonstrating high technical proficiency in the virtualized voice solution.

Looking ahead, ETA will continue to help businesses realize the advantage of virtualized voice and streamline their voice and data solutions to improve results in all critical areas of operation.
