Mutare Launches Refreshed Brand at Avaya Engage

Ben Crown, CEO of Mutare, Inc., announced the company’s refreshed brand, streamlined product portfolio and launch of its new website, all part of a new brand identity focused on innovating for the future and delivering value to the customer. In announcing the refreshed brand, Crown said, “The name Mutare means to change, and our refreshed brand reflects a mission and a culture dedicated to providing leading-edge communication solutions that drive digital transformation for businesses. We look forward to the opportunities this gives us to better serve our customers, partners, communities and employees.”

“As part of the brand discovery process, we conducted independent market research which revealed that the name Mutare has tremendous brand equity and that our excellent customer service and reliability are key industry differentiators in the markets we serve,” said Chuck French, Chief Growth Officer of Mutare. “However, over the years, our expansive product features and wide-ranging naming conventions have created brand confusion and limited our product’s visibility and overall brand recognition in the market.”
