Mitel®, the trusted provider of unified communications solutions, today announced the launch of its "Simply Communicating" Tour, a four-month venture that will bring Mitel's advanced business communications solutions to its customers and partners across the U.S.

Through the roadshow, Mitel will visit over 600 new and existing customers and provide on premise access to Mitel's latest solutions offerings.
