Comverse Network Systems Unveils Notification Via E-Mail Service


Business/Technology Editors
SUPERCOMM 99

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 7, 1999--

Comverse Brings Voice And Fax Mail To The E-Mail Subscriber,
Taking Advantage Of The Power Of The Internet

Comverse Network Systems, a division of Comverse Technology, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CMVT), and the world's leading supplier of enhanced services
platforms to wireless and wireline network operators, today unveiled
its Notification Via E-Mail service, a major enhancement to its
integrated messaging services.
Comverse's Notification Via E-Mail service enables subscribers to
a network operator's voice messaging or unified messaging service to
keep track of their messages from home, while at work, while
traveling, or while online. When a caller leaves a voice or a fax
message in a subscriber's voice mailbox, the Notification Via E-Mail
service can either send a notification via e-mail, or send the message
as an e-mail attachment, over the Internet, to a pre-determined e-mail
address.
Comverse's Notification Via E-Mail works with virtually any
e-mail client. Notifications can be sent to any device having an
e-mail address, such as PCs, laptops, PDAs, or wireless smartphones.
Because the message is delivered in a visual format, subscribers
can browse through their messages and choose which message to review
and act upon first. Subscribers can also forward their messages to
other e-mail addresses. Since faxes can be printed, Comverse's
Notification Via E-Mail also enables the subscriber's PC and printer
to double as a fax machine.
Itsik Danziger, President and Chief Operating Officer of Comverse
Network Systems, said, "From a consumer perspective, Comverse's
Notification Via E-mail service is the most generally usable form of
unified messaging. It brings voice mail to the e-mail client, giving
subscribers easy access to their voice and fax mail messages while
they are checking e-mail."
Comverse first launched its unified messaging service, which
combines voice, fax, and e-mail in a single mailbox, in 1998.
Comverse is demonstrating its Notification Via E-Mail service at
SuperComm '99 in booth 441 in Hall A, June 8-10, in Atlanta, Georgia.

Comverse Network Systems Unveils Internet Call Waiting Service

SUPERCOMM 99

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 7, 1999--

Service Gives Residential Voice And Unified Messaging Subscribers
A Virtual Phone Line, Allowing Them To Manage Telephone Calls While
Online

Comverse Network Systems, a division of Comverse Technology, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CMVT), and the world's leading supplier of enhanced services
platforms to wireless and wireline network operators, today unveiled
its Internet Call Waiting service, which will give residential voice
messaging and unified messaging (voice, fax, and e-mail in a single
mailbox) subscribers a virtual phone line while they are online. With
Comverse's Internet Call Waiting, subscribers will never miss a
telephone call while connected to the Internet, allowing them to
handle all their telephone calls, either at home or while traveling.
Comverse's Internet Call Waiting service is activated
automatically, as soon as the subscriber connects to the Internet.
When a call comes in to the designated phone, a message pops up on the
computer screen with the name and number of the caller. The subscriber
can then decide whether to accept the call, route the caller to voice
mail, redirect the call to another number, play a message for the
caller, or simply ignore the call.
Utilizing the Internet, Comverse's Internet Call Waiting allows
subscribers to speak directly with the caller over their PC, using any
standards-based Internet telephony client software. The subscriber may
also choose to forward the call to another number, such as a second
telephone line in the house, or to a wireless phone.
If the subscriber does not wish to be disturbed, the call can be
diverted into the subscriber's network-based voice mailbox, where the
caller can leave a message. The subscriber may also choose to send the
caller a pre-defined message, such as, "I'll call you back in ten
minutes," or even type in a custom message and have it read to the
caller using text-to-speech technology.
Itsik Danziger, President and Chief Operating Officer of Comverse
Network Systems, said, "Comverse's Internet Call Waiting service
allows network operators to expand the value of their portfolio of
voice and unified messaging services by enabling subscribers to handle
their phone calls while they are online. Network operators gain
greater revenue by ensuring calls can be completed, as well as by
attracting new subscribers with a broader range of services."
Comverse is demonstrating its Internet Call Waiting service at
SuperComm '99 in booth 441 in Hall A, June 8-10, in Atlanta, Georgia.
