ININ Interactive Intelligence Grp., Inc.

Interactive Intelligence Inc. (Nasdaq:ININ), a global developer of business communications software, was named Best of Show last month for Best Large Enterprise Solution at INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO East 2007. The award recognizes innovative technology and creative product feature sets, according to Rich Tehrani, president and group editor-in-chief of Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC), publishers of INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine. �Interactive Intelligence has clearly demonstrated technology innovation and has a long history of leading the market by providing many advanced solutions to customers years before most others,� Tehrani said. �The company was one of the first to offer a SIP stack back in 2002, and innovated again and again through the development of an all-software IP telephony solution in 2003, and a unique media server in 2005. Today, with the software�s ability to support 5,000 users on a single platform, along with the provision of both contact center agent and business user applications running on the same system for truly �unified� communications, Interactive Intelligence has solidified its place as a leader in the large enterprise IP communications market.� The Best of Show awards were given across 11 different categories, with winners selected from among a total of about 75 vendors that submitted award applications. Best of show winners were determined by a panel of judges who visited each exhibitor booth, viewed product demos, and interviewed company staff. �We�re especially proud to receive the INTERNET TELEPHONY Best of Show award in the large enterprise category, since we have aggressively invested in research and development efforts over the past few years that have resulted in dramatic scalability gains,� said Joseph Staples, senior vice president of worldwide marketing for Interactive Intelligence. �These gains have led to an increasing number of large, global accounts � customers such as Amway, BMW, Ceridian, Computershare, Oracle, and many more.� Interactive Intelligence released its flagship unified communications software for contact center automation and enterprise IP telephony in 1999. The company�s standards-based software suite offers single-platform architecture designed to eliminate the cost and complexity introduced by individual point products.
