SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ShoreTel® (NASDAQ: SHOR), the leading provider of brilliantly simple™ phone systems and unified communications (UC) solutions, today announced it has been recognized by Ingram Micro® as the "Unified Communications and Collaboration Vendor of the Year" at the annual Ingram Micro Experience event, held last week in Cerritos, Calif.
