Cantata Technology Enhances “Express Exchange” Service

Program Now Includes Next-Day Board Replacement for the Brooktrout TR1000 for Microsoft Speech Server Product

NEEDHAM, Mass. – June 26, 2006 -- Cantata Technology™, the world’s leading independent provider of enabling communications technology, today announced enhancements to its Express Exchange Service, a program designed to increase system availability by enabling end-customers to obtain a rapid replacement on their Cantata products within 24 hours. The program, which previously included the Brooktrout® TR1034™ intelligent fax platform, has now been expanded to include Cantata’s Brooktrout TR1000™ for Microsoft Speech Server. In addition, the program now offers one-, two- and three-year contracts.

Cantata Technology was established in 2006 through the combination of Excel Switching Corporation and Brooktrout Technology.

For many businesses, fax and speech servers are critical parts of their IT infrastructure that must be kept up and running to keep their business moving forward. Cantata’s Express Exchange Service provides businesses with peace of mind by offering guaranteed next-day replacement to many locations around the world. In addition to the 24-hour replacement, businesses also benefit from Cantata’s standard five-year hardware warranty, unlimited access to support information and tools via the Cantata website, and unlimited technical and email support.

“Cantata Technology has a strong history of excellent customer support and we are always looking for additional ways to meet the needs of our customers,” said Steve Ganem, vice president of customer service and support of Cantata Technology. “For our resellers, the Express Exchange Service provides a value-added service they can offer to their end-customers. For our corporate end-users, the program gives them the added security of knowing that if their fax or speech server goes down, they will have a prompt replacement to keep their business running.”

“Businesses recognize that the data contained in fax documents and the business processes that rely on faxes are critical to continued operations,” said Eric Bean, senior director, Product Management of Captaris (www.captaris.com). “Cantata’s Express Exchange Service is a key part of our strategy to providing responsive service to companies that rely on fax server and electronic document delivery solutions.”

“In today’s fast-paced business environment, companies need every edge they can get to increase productivity and reduce downtime, particularly when it comes to their voice and speech systems,” said Robert Moore, director of sales and marketing of ComputerTalk (www.computer-talk.com.). “The Cantata Express Exchange Service goes above and beyond current offerings from other vendors to provide the rapid turnaround and critical support that businesses need in today’s 24 x 7 world.”
