SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/04/09 -- ShoreTel, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHOR), the leading
provider of brilliantly simple IP phone systems with fully integrated
Unified Communications (UC), today announced that chief executive officer,
John W. Combs, and his executive team will ring the ceremonial NASDAQ stock
market closing bell in New York City on Wednesday, November 11. ShoreTel's
participation in this exciting opportunity comes on the heels of beating
Cisco and other major competitors to be named best voice over IP provider
for six years in a row by IT professionals in surveys conducted by
independent analyst firm, Nemertes Research.
"It's an honor for us to ring the bell at NASDAQ. ShoreTel has had a
momentous year in which we've grown market share and popularity even as the
industry overall declined," Combs said. "This ceremony is symbolic as
ShoreTel is ringing in a new era with business communication solutions that
are designed to simplify IT management, reduce costs and boost productivity
in the IP age."
Since the company was founded in the heart of Silicon Valley in 1996, more
than 11,000 organizations have turned to ShoreTel's UC solutions because of
their unique ability to untangle communications complexity. Ease of use and
management have resulted in one of the lowest total cost of ownerships in
the industry and ShoreTel has achieved the No.1 market-share position
worldwide for small and midsize businesses using its UC desktop
application, according to the Synergy Research Group.
