Posted on: Wednesday, 15 February 2006, 09:00 CST

Vonexus Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Interactive Intelligence Inc. (Nasdaq:ININ), received INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine's 2005 Product of the Year Award for the company's Microsoft-based IP communications system, Enterprise Interaction Center(R) (EIC).

Vonexus was honored for its commitment to quality, innovation, and meeting real marketplace needs, according to Rich Tehrani, INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine's group publisher and editor-in-chief.

"Backed by its parent company's more than 10 years of experience developing innovative contact center automation systems for organizations worldwide, Vonexus offers the advantage of a powerful, yet proven IP PBX solution," Tehrani said. "EIC's standards-based architecture using SIP, along with tight integration to the entire Microsoft platform - from applications and servers, to Web portals and client devices - ensure businesses get a practical and complete system designed to meet their most pressing needs."

"We built EIC to fill the gap left by vendors offering proprietary, hardware-based, multi-product VoIP-based solutions," said Joseph A. Staples, senior vice president of worldwide marketing for Interactive Intelligence and Vonexus. "EIC's all-software architecture has filled that gap, offering businesses a more cost-effective, feature-rich, yet easy to install and maintain solution. For the benefits we bring to businesses, we are very proud to win INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine's Product of the Year Award."

EIC is a Microsoft-based IP communications system built on open standards, offering pre-packaged IP PBX, auto-attendant, IVR, presence management, conferencing, recording, unified messaging, and Web chat functionality, along with Microsoft .NET Office desktop plug-ins. Pre-integrated Microsoft Dynamics applications for data management include CRM, Great Plains and Navision.

As an "out-of-the-box" system with a wide range of productivity-enhancing and customer-facing applications, EIC is ideal for medium size businesses (50 to 1,000 employees), large distributed organizations, and is particularly well suited for businesses with remote or mobile employees. EIC is also ideal for vertically-focused companies, such as auto dealerships, financial services firms, healthcare organizations, technology companies, law firms, and other types of professional services organizations.

EIC is sold through a global channel of value-added resellers. For more information about EIC, visit http://www.vonexus.com .
