Sangoma(R) Technologies Corporation (TSX VENTURE:STC) today announced
integration of its NetBorder Call Progress Analysis Engine with VICIdial, the
foremost open source predictive dialer available worldwide.


NetBorder Call Progress Analysis Engine is a patent-pending solution based on
advanced statistic models, renowned for offering fast, reliable real-time call
classification and routing for the outbound contact center.


VICIdial is implementing the NetBorder Call Analyzer software with Sangoma cards
as an option on top of its Asterisk-based solution. NetBorder CPA integrates
with VICIdial, and will integrate with any gateway or IP network.


"The solution is simple to integrate because it 'just talks SIP'," said David
Mandelstam, CEO of Sangoma. "NetBorder Call Analyzer uses a standard SIP
interface and runs on standard computing platforms and servers. Because it is
based on scripts the software is highly configurable."


Before offering this integrated solution to its customers, VICIdial conducted a
series of rigorous tests in a live setting. They placed over 21,000 calls
through the NetBorder Call Analyzer's Call Progress Detection, to test how well
answering machines are detected-specifically how few times a live person is
mistaken for an answering machine. The Call Analyzer software also allowed the
test campaigns to lower the drop/answered percentage to just over 1%, a full 2%
lower than the FTC abandon limit of 3%, and easily meets the requirements of the
new UK Ofcom limits.


"This is quite a success," said Matt Florell, President of ViciDial Group.
"Using the NetBorder CPD allows the campaign to run at a more aggressive dialing
setting while maintaining a lower drop rate. Also, agents' time is not wasted on
answering machines, so they can spend more time on human contact calls."


NetBorder CPA has an easily demonstrable payback because it allows call center
operators, to make use of existing solutions to increase productivity and reduce
wasted time.


"CPA empowers all the thousands of users of VICIdial worldwide to significantly
improve not only the economics, but also the quality of their call center
offering, by almost eliminating annoying dead calls," said Mandelstam.


"We are excited to be able to offer such a money saving, revenue enhancing
product to the call center community."


Sangoma's NetBorder Call Analyzer is part of the NetBorder Suite for Contact
Centers currently being woven into the Sangoma product portfolio, following the
acquisition of Paraxip. The product is now available for integration through
authorized Empowered by Sangoma Resellers and Solution Partners.


Sangoma and VICIdial are exhibiting at Call Center World, Berlin in Stand #1A19.
