Mitel Ranks Highest in Mid-Market and Enterprise for Customer Satisfaction for Premises and Hosted PBX Solutions

DALLAS-- April 16, 2019--In a recent worldwide study surveying 3,500 IT managers, Mitel® edged out 15 technology providers to earn the top spot in customer satisfaction among mid-market and enterprise segments in six out of 10 measurements, beating the industry average in nearly all. Results of the survey, conducted by strategic research company Eastern Management Group, appear in the 2018 Premises and Hosted PBX Customer Satisfaction Report. The report is designed to serve as a guide in helping customers navigate the vendor selection process while also offering providers a way to benchmark against competitors and gain customer perception insights. Provider ratings cover a range of areas in three key categories: product, vendor experience and customer delight. The six measurements in which Mitel emerged as the leader were purchase experience, installation, support, management tools, contact center experience, and value.
