I have a Mitel support contact in town who is separate from my Inter-tel support contact. They used to service our old SX2000. He told me this week that they are no longer doing technician training for Axxess systems at all. I am not sure what is coming, or when but I will be discussing this with my Inter-tel rep.

The Axxess system is one of the best systems on the market from any manufacture. What a loss when it is disconntinued.

Rumblings are in terms of details that they got rid of Intertel's Axxcess and the 7000. They kept Intertel's 3000 and 5000 line and changed the branding on it to Mitel. They are making the Mitel VoIP phones work on the Intertel products that they kept. Mitel still has its 200ICP and its 3300ICP which are their IP systems. This is very bad news....

From what I gather through the grapevine, they (Mitel/Inter-Tel) are not going to do any more Axxess releases after version 11. After that, they are going to beging increasing prices on Axxess components to drive buyers towards the communications servers. I hear they plan on doubling the price of a KSU cabinet to discourage it's use.
Ain't technology wonderful? Nothing like being on the bleeding edge.

Besides almost doubling the price of the Axxess KSU, PS, station and T-1 cards they are discontinuing 5000 packages w/ 8600 series phones- only available w/ Mitel phones.

In this economy I do not think it is the right move. But it will work out nicely for our company because we specialize in refurbished Inter-Tel solution. Happy Holiday!!!!

I see a large base of existing systems out there that continue to need service and or upgrades...I think parts will be available but I don't like the way they are going with this...
