brightstack’s ShoreTel Nortel Integration Program

If you are still a Nortel customer and you are concerned about what you should do since Nortel has gone bankrupt, you are at the right place.  brightstack is a ShoreTel Orange Certified Partner and an HP ProCurve Expert Partner.  Leverage our expertise to start a migration off of your Nortel system.  Schedule a demonstration at your office of the ShoreTel system.  You can also participate in the brightstack ShoreTel pilot program which is designed to take the risk out of your capital purchase by enabling you to "try before you buy".  Click here for more information.  

Here are the goals of the program:

• You no longer have to make any further investments in your Nortel platform. 
• You will have a fully working ShoreTel system that could take over in the event the Nortel system fails.   This is your contingency plan, your backup plan and your “Plan B”.
• Leverage the power of networking by HP Procurve to replace any Nortel network switches.
• You need only make the bare minimum investment in ShoreTel and Procurve.
• You can deploy as few or as many handsets as you want.  There is no need to do a forklift replacement. You can grow and scale the ShoreTel system over time, gradually phasing out the Nortel.

Here are some of the many benefits:

• With our program, you can integrate a brand new ShoreTel system into your Nortel system.
• You will have one fully integrated system. 
• ShoreTel extensions can dial Nortel extensions – and vice versa - internally and across locations via 3 or 4 digit dialing.
• ShoreTel extensions can dial out trunks on the Nortel system – and vice versa.
• You can integrate in SIP trunks and SIP devices on the ShoreTel system.
• You can leverage all the benefits of ShoreTel’s Unified Communications Platform (Office Anywhere, Video Calls, Chat, Call Manager, Voicemail to email, etc).

Here is how we do it:

• A Nortel T1 card is required on the Nortel system.
• A ShoreTel T1 switch is integrated with the Nortel T1 card as a T1 to T1 tie.
• The ShoreTel system is programmed with the range of Nortel extensions.  The Nortel System is programmed with the ShoreTel extensions.  Extensions on both systems can now access each other through the T1 to T1 tie.
• The ShoreTel system is programmed to use trunks (PRI, T1, Pots line, phone line, etc) on the Nortel for dial tone.   Trunks can also be connected to the ShoreTel system.
• Users on the ShoreTel system are provided with voicemail on the ShoreTel system.
• The ShoreTel system is managed through ShoreTel Director, an award winning management interface to manage the “single image” ShoreTel system.
