Shelton, CT—September 26, 2002—CTL, Inc., a world leading provider of
unified messaging systems, today launched the next generation of its
product line, VoiceSupport™ for Windows 2000, for small and
medium-sized businesses worldwide. Also available is CTL’s new Wireless
Email Extender, allowing users access to their corporate email, and
Wireless Unified Inbox, enabling mobile users access to their corporate
voice, fax and email messages from their mobile phone.
“Today’s announcement accentuates CTL’s commitment to offer next generation applications for the unified messaging market. Windows 2000 provides us with better Internet application development, security and scalability which we need to get more out of our telephony applications. It has enabled us to add wireless applications to our portfolio of products, which expands our market beyond the traditional voice messaging marketplace.” “CTL is focused on helping corporate messaging users become more efficient while out of the office. We basically extend the user workstation to their mobile device so they can get real-time corporate information including email, voice mail, faxes, personal contact list, tasks and calendar information.”

Wireless Email Extender The Wireless Email Extender also allows users access to their personal Contacts, Tasks and Calendar. Wireless devices can search for specific contacts in their contact folder to get valuable information, such as telephone, fax, mobile numbers and email addresses. Access to their Tasks allows users to view important tasks that are scheduled. Calendar access allows users to check or edit appointments in their calendar. “Corporations like the fact that they don’t have to purchase expensive wireless devices with large monthly fees to get the same service we provide with Wireless Email Extender. And the business traveler enjoys needing only one device, their mobile phone, and not having to carry additional gadgets like PDAs and laptops.”
Wireless Unified Inbox “CTL’s Wireless Unified Inbox goes one step further than the Wireless Email Extender, it extends the corporate unified messaging (voice and fax in addition to email) system to the wireless device,” said Ed Hansen, Director of Product Development for CTL. Users with long email messages can have the unified messaging system call them to play their email over the phone, using text-to-speech technology. The user now has the option of recording a reply, which is sent to the sender as an email with a .wav file attachment. Users can also have the system send them a fax or call them to play their voice messages. “Today, mobile phone users have mobile network voice mail on their cell phones and some also have a mobile network email address,” added Hansen. “The more sophisticated user has their corporate email on their mobile phone. What the traveling businessperson really wants is their corporate email, corporate voice mail and their corporate faxes accessible from their mobile device. Basically, they want the manageability of their in-house unified messaging system with the convenience of their wireless device.” CTL is constantly developing new features for the product while providing an easy upgrade path for current customers. Currently, CTL is offering upgrades to this new software so that companies may take advantage of these exciting new features.
