Business Wire, Dec 6, 2006

Move Designed to Strengthen Dialpro's New Strategy to Provide Unified Communications Solutions for Enterprises

SEATTLE -- Dialpro Northwest Inc., a leading provider of enterprise voice messaging and unified communications systems, today announced it has been named a Silver Partner by SonicWALL, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNWL), a leading provider of network, Web, email security and backup and recovery solutions.

As a SonicWALL Silver Partner, Dialpro Northwest will add SonicWALL's comprehensive suite of wired and wireless security and backup/recovery solutions as a complimentary offering to its unified communications solutions for enterprises.

"Including SonicWALL's products in our technology mix is a logical next step for us as we further advance into the unified communications market," said Dennis R. Tyler, president of Dialpro Northwest. "SonicWALL's products will help make our solutions for enterprises more secure by providing real-time dynamic threat protection and backup and recovery options."

"We are very pleased to bring Dialpro Northwest on board as a partner," said Peter Brant, director of Western Region Sales at SonicWALL. "As a provider of unified communications systems, Dialpro operates in a market segment that is not typical for us, and enables us to reach customers beyond our usual profile."

Today's announcement is part of Dialpro Northwest's current expansion into unified communications, the technology of combining various electronic communication methods such as voice mail, email, and facsimile in a single inbox and managing messages through a common interface. A provider of enterprise voice messaging systems based in the Pacific Northwest since 1988, Dialpro Northwest began its move into the unified communications market this past summer when it was purchased by Tyler, a longtime software and telecommunications industry veteran with 20-plus years of experience for companies such as Active Voice and Executone. Under Tyler's direction, Dialpro is expanding into the unified communications market, which is expected to grow to $10 billion a year and more than 100 million users by 2008. Unified communications helps enterprises, particularly the mobile workforce, to be more productive and be more responsive to customers, by reducing the time required to respond to electronic communications.
