Mitel 300 and VM - PBX Info :: Your Free PBX, PABX and Telephone Information Resource

We updated our PBX a year ago with a Mitel sx200 3 cabinet system and Active voice Repartee on OS/2 now I am finding that active voice does not support network shares for daily backups until you update to active voice 2000. (at an 18K upgrade cost) I am not really happy about that. I am looking into putting another system in a different location, and have been reading good things about the Mitel 3300. Unfortunately I have been searching for a comparison chart any where out the to tell me if active voice has any advantages, or price comparisons or ANYTHING. Besides relying on venders are there any comparisons between active voice and other voice mail systems I can review? For the PBX features most of ours our in retail environments and we use the Mitel to simulate a key system. Price wise it has been competitive but I need to be able to do more network management. I am thinking the 3300 box may do that for me, but is there anything else that would function better?

Chuckler,

The Mitels are know to be very good phone systems. Why you choose set up the system as a key system is your choice. If you prefer a key system, there are literally dozens of products that would work....Norstar, Partner...etc.

I know you can use Novaback to backup the Active voice to a shared network drive, this software comes with the vmail.

The 3300 is, from what i understand, a peripheral to an SX-2000. Do you need an SX-2000?

A Norstar MICS with Norstar Remote Utilities works well.
