Cbeyond Extends Deployment of the IP Unity Glenayre® Mereon® Platform to Integrate its Mobile and Landline Voice Messaging

Mereon’s Unified Messaging Technology Leveraged to Deliver a Unified Messaging Experience to Cbeyond’s Fixed and Mobile Users

MILPITAS, Calif. — March 20, 2007— IP Unity Glenayre Inc., the new leader in delivering carrier-grade messaging and multimedia solutions over IP, TDM and enterprise networks, today announced that Cbeyond® (NASDAQ:CBEY), a managed services provider to small businesses, extended its deployment of the IP Unity Glenayre Mereon 6000 Media Server to integrate its mobile and landline voicemail. Cbeyond also leveraged the IP Unity Glenayre Mereon Unified Messaging technology to enable its customers to send voicemails to their email inbox.

Cbeyond is a leading IP-based managed services provider that delivers integrated packages of local and long-distance voice along with mobile and broadband Internet services to more than 27,000 small businesses. With the company’s new Integrated Voicemail service, its customers save time by managing all of their messages from one single voicemail box, regardless of which phone line was called – mobile or landline.

“Our Integrated Voicemail solution is a natural extension of Cbeyond’s growing portfolio of managed services for our small businesses customers,” stated Chris Gatch, chief technology officer for Cbeyond. “We are pleased to deliver this offering based on the capabilities of IP Unity Glenayre’s Mereon system and applications.”

Other Integrated Voicemail features include unified messaging, zero-out for assistance, and real-time message notification. The unified messaging feature allows Cbeyond customers to listen to voice messages on their computer, and to file, save, forward and back-up their important messages. With its zero-out feature, customers can allow callers to exit voicemail, instead of leaving a message, by dialing zero to receive immediate assistance. Additionally, with real-time, customizable message notification options, customers can receive an email, text message (SMS) and/or IVR phone notification to their mobile phone when a voicemail has been left on their landline extension, ending the need to frequently call their office voicemail to check for messages.

“IP Unity Glenayre is thrilled to see Cbeyond continue its leadership of the managed services market with this offering,” stated Arun Sobti, Chairman and CEO of IP Unity Glenayre. “Cbeyond knows its customers extremely well, and has established a powerful track record of value and innovation for its customers, as well as very strong customer service. This integrated service offering is the latest example of how Cbeyond delivers a differentiated and well-featured, but user-friendly service to users ready for more than what the market offers. We are proud to be part of Cbeyond’s award-winning service delivery network.”
