HOLMDEL, N.J., May 30, 2002 - uReach Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of innovative enhanced communications solutions to service providers, today announced that they have joined the International Softswitch Consortium to advance next-generation multimedia communications.

uReach Technologies brings to the Consortium its breadth of experience in developing and delivering enhanced communications services -- including enhanced voice mail, unified messaging, unified communications, and voice- activated dialing -- for service providers to offer to their customers. These services are provided by uReach's next-generation application server that controls other network elements, such as media servers, via SIP and voiceXML.To further the development of open network architectures and standard interfaces for next-generation IP-based multimedia communications and applications, the International Softswitch Consortium organizes interoperability test events, holds educational conferences, and establishes work groups to address current and emerging industry issues. According to the Consortium, softswitch technology plays a strategic role in the next- generation public network infrastructure for data, video and voice communications. It couples the reliability and features that customers expect from public telephony networks with the cost-effectiveness and flexibility of packet technology.

"To empower consumers to control and personalize their communications and to better manage the ever-increasing barrage of messages, uReach services provide a wide range of functionality -- from voice mail access over the Web or email access over the phone, to intelligent call filtering and routing, to listening to voice mail messages as they're being recorded," said Krishnamurty Kambhampati, president and CEO of uReach Technologies. "By joining the International Softswitch Consortium we will help shape and promote the growth of next-generation multimedia communications."

uReach will be in the International Softswitch Consortium booth at next week's Supercomm show in Atlanta (Booth 24476).
