Press Release Summary: New Pronto! version 1.2 adds Business Class features and
Class of Services capabilities for web 2.0 collaboration

Press Release Body: Mill Valley, September 11, 2007 - CommuniGate Systems, the
leader in scalable carrier-class Rich Media Internet Communications solutions, today
announced a new version of Pronto!, a sleek, easy-to-use client interface that
brings together Rich Media and Internet Communications. Pronto! version 1.2 delivers
key new call control and calendaring features, including "click to call" and shared
calendar management.

With version 1.2's new "click to call" feature, users can initiate a voice call as
seamlessly and easily as an IM session. Pronto! integrates status, contact lists,
and call management. Through their contact list, users can instantly place a call to
a colleague or friend who is online with a single click - without changing screens
or looking up phone numbers. Pronto! seamlessly initiates the call through an
attached SIP phone or soft client.

This latest version delivers additional call management enhancements, including the
ability to access voicemail, call records, and call control configurations, such as
call forwarding, all from the integrated Pronto! dashboard. Also included are
improved calendaring features. With version 1.2, users can create and modify
calendar events with a simple drag-and-drop, utilize shared calendars, and merge
multiple calendars into a single view.

"In the age of the virtual workplace and the distributed organization, Enterprise
customers have been demanding solutions that integrate all of their communication
and collaboration technologies -- voice, chat, instant messaging, collaboration,
etc. -- enabling their employees, partners and customers to work together more
efficiently, thereby increasing both productivity and profitability," notes Chris
Swenson, Director of Software Industry Analysis at The NPD Group, "As such, recent
growth in the unified collaborative communications (UCC) solutions market has been
strong and will likely remain so for several years to come.."

"We needed to find an application that delivered high-performance communications,
security and manageability to meet the demands of our clients," said Joel Smith,
Chief Information Officer of AppRiver. "To date, Pronto! has been given glowing
reviews by our customers. This latest version follows CommuniGate System's trend of
offering powerful web 2.0 communications tools with new features and enhancements
giving our clients the ability to easily manage their internet communications
through one address."

Delivered through Adobe Flash Player 9, Pronto! can be accessed from any web browser
and operating system without the need to install client software.
