Comverse Selects NMS to Provide Voice Technology for InSight(TM) Advanced Messaging Platform
FRAMINGHAM, Mass.--July 31, 2006--NMS Communications (NASDAQ: NMSS), a leading provider of communications technologies and solutions for converged and mobile networks, today announced that Comverse, a unit of Comverse Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: CMVT), has chosen NMS's Open Access(TM) platform (www.nmscommunications.com/OpenAccess) as the underlying voice technology for its InSight(TM) value-added services environment.
Comverse is a leading supplier of software and systems enabling network-based multimedia communications services. Comverse's InSight is an open, next-generation, future-proof and cost-effective service environment. It is a single, integrated system that can supply and support all the services -- both existing and planned -- that wireless and wireline operators can offer, hosting them on a completely redesigned, high-density, low-cost platform.
Comverse chose Open Access because of its robust application development environment, which speeds the development of software and hardware applications while maintaining telecom-grade standards for reliability. Open Access delivers media processing and network signaling solutions for creating enhanced voice, data and video applications and services. These open, scalable, high-density building blocks give developers the processing power and capacity needed to rapidly develop an ever-increasing array of next-generation services -- now and in the future.

"Comverse is an important and longstanding NMS partner, and the company's use of our Open Access products further validates our reputation as a leading developer of innovative media processing solutions."
