FORTUNE Small Business magazine has ranked global provider of unified IP business communications solutions, Interactive Intelligence (Nasdaq: ININ), tenth among its list of 100 fastest growing small public companies in America.

Interactive Intelligence achieved its tenth-place ranking with 26.2 percent revenue growth, 152.3 percent earnings per share, and an 80.2 percent total return to investors based on a three-year annualized rate. �Our rapid growth is largely due to our increasing focus on global enterprise customers and innovative, first-to-market technology approach,� said Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald E. Brown. �We�ve aggressively gone up-market over the last three years, providing more of our IP-based contact center, IP PBX, and enterprise messaging products to larger organizations around the world. This has been a complement to our already strong position in the mid-market. We�ve also benefited from our innovation and early adoption of the SIP standard as the market has made a significant shift to voice over IP.� Interactive Intelligence first released its all-in-one IP communications software suite in 1997 offering standards-based, single-platform architecture designed to eliminate the cost and complexity introduced by multi-point products. The company�s product line includes multi-channel routing, outbound predictive dialing, IP PBX functionality, call and screen recording, workforce management, unified messaging, and more. Today, the company gives its more than 3,000 global customers a comprehensive solution-set comprised of premise-based and hosted offerings, including software, hardware, consulting, support, education, and implementation services. The FSB ranking, compiled by financial research firm Zacks, includes U.S.-based public companies with revenues of less than $200 million and a stock price of more than $1 based on percentage growth in earnings, revenue, and stock performance over the past three years.
