Title: MBG is Gone. Welcome to MiVoice
Post by: ralph on June 06, 2013, 08:42:57 AM
Per MOL bulletin PB20130063 the MBG (remember when it used to be called 'Teleworker'?) has now been renamed to 'MiVoice'.

This is version 8.

I thought it had been too long since we changed what we were calling this.

I like that a lot!  Maybe I'll start referring to my 5340 as "MiPhone".  Oh wait, I've been doing that...   ::)

Technically it's MiVoice Border Gateway. So MBG is now...MBG.

Yeah, the joke around our shop has been that someone gave marketing too much free time and power.

Can they seriously stop rebranding stuff yearly? I am tired of explaining to people the progression of names that their product has been through since they last upgraded.

Arrgghh!!! I saw this the other day and my first thought was all the questions I am going to get from the sales people, they get confused enough already with the plethora of products and how they all have to work together, so change the name, yeah, that helped.   ???

One question:
Has the MiVoice naming convention just become MiHeadach?

Yes, considering they've already changed the name of the MiVoice Small Business (formely Mitel 5000) to MiVoice Office.

Seriously, who are the marketing guys getting drunk over there? Because whatever they're serving them, I'd like some.

This happens every so often and my belief is that as soon as we know the name and price, it has to change. Otherwise we might see the price increase  ;D

The other thing that has changed is LBG is being made EOL and replaced with MiVoice (just MiVoice, not MiVoice Gateway or anything???)

The new product wont be available for another couple of weeks though, and will in the shorter term come free as part of MAS.

That's good. I disliked LBG.
