Thinking of Moving from Mitel Cloud? Here’s What You Need to Know.
So, you’re on the Mitel cloud platform at the moment, and you’re probably wondering—if we made the switch to Yabbit, would we have to rip and replace every single handset on the desks?
It’s a fair question. Hardware’s expensive. No one wants to deal with that kind of upheaval.
Here’s the good news: in most cases, the answer is no. You don’t have to start from scratch.
Will My Mitel Phones Actually Work with Yabbit?
Short answer? Yeah, they usually do.
Most of the time, we can take your existing Mitel cloud phones and bring them straight over to our platform. The process generally looks something like this:
- We reset the phones
- Reprovision them onto the Yabbit system
- Rebuild your button settings
- And tweak the config so everything runs smoothly
You don’t need to bin all your hardware and start again. We just take what you’ve already got and make it work better.
What About the Team? Will They Struggle with the Change?
Honestly, this is the thing most businesses stress about—and it’s usually the thing that ends up being the least painful.
Because here’s the thing: your team already knows how to use the phones. They look the same. They feel the same. The buttons are where they expect them to be.
So there’s no big training day. No one staring at a handset wondering what to do. Adoption just… happens.
That means:
- Less downtime
- No confused IT helpdesk tickets
- Everyone just keeps working, but with a better system underneath
So Why Are People Making the Move?
There’s usually a few reasons.
Maybe the support’s gone downhill. Maybe you’re after more flexibility. Maybe you just want a provider who actually owns the platform and isn’t just a middleman. Or maybe—and this is a big one—you want your data staying in Australia.
Whatever the reason, migrating from Mitel cloud to Yabbit isn’t just a lateral move. It’s an upgrade. Better performance. Better control. Better experience all round.
It’s Not Just a Swap—It’s an Improvement
Look, migration shouldn’t just be about lifting and shifting. It should leave you in a better place than you started.
With Yabbit, that means:
- A platform that actually performs
- Support that picks up the phone
- And a system that just works the way it should
We don’t just copy what you had. We make it better.
So How Does the Actual Migration Work?
It’s pretty straightforward, honestly.
We start by taking a look at your current Mitel setup. Make sure everything’s compatible—which it usually is. Then we reset your devices, reprovision them onto Yabbit, rebuild your button mappings, and test the whole lot before you go live.
In most cases, it’s smooth. No drama. No major disruption.
