Introduction
Joe has been in the Information Technology field for over 20 years and possesses a wide array of technological skills and
leadership qualities. He has grown from “green-screen” Mainframe technologies into today’s Cloud centric mentality. His

Joe DiCristofano
Director of Information System
UMG/Del Medical, Inc.
The problem
U.M.G. Inc. acquired Del Medical Imaging in November 2009
• The company more than doubled in size from the acquisition and there was an immediate need to
facilitate quick, clear and secure communication between dispersed offices.
• The need to have home office employees (especially Sales team members) the freedom to work
remotely as if they were in an office was key to our success.
• Determine how to leverage heavy investment in phone system handsets; compatibility with existing
phones was critical.
November 18, 2014
50
SEGMENT 4:
Joe DiCristofano
Director of Information System
UMG/Del Medical, Inc.
Why cloud?
• Cost—flexibility in pricing was a big factor in evaluating a cloud solution.
• Ease of administration—the solution needed to be easy to administer without adding headcount for
phone system maintenance.
• Management portal accessibility—manage from any Internet location.
• Ability for control—move, add, changes on the fly.
November 18, 2014

SEGMENT 4:
Joe DiCristofano
Director of Information System
UMG/Del Medical, Inc.
Why ShoreTel?
Several hosted vendors were considered including
8x8, RingCentral and internal PBX hosting—
before zeroing in on ShoreTel Sky.
• The feature sets we wanted weren’t available with the solutions offered by the other vendors.
• Flexibility & cost impact—price index per user vs. the long-term contract cost.
• Manageability out-of-the-box or into-the-cloud—that is, the complexity of other solutions—made
ShoreTel Sky the obvious choice for us.
November 18, 2014
52
SEGMENT 4:
Joe DiCristofano
Director of Information System
UMG/Del Medical, Inc.
Experience so far with ShoreTel
• Improvement of call quality & coverage across our offices.
• No need for additional headcount to IT.
• ShoreTel support and Knowledgebase is excellent.
• ShoreTel Sky Mobility enables our employees place and receive calls on any device using a common
business phone number.
• Benefits and upgrades have accelerated; especially over the last year more features have become
available.
“Disaster recovery high availability solution has come into play – big win for ShoreTel & for us”
