FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Corsidian to Offer Virtual Hold in Latin America Akron, OH – July 24, 2007 – Virtual Hold Technology®, LLC (VHT), the leading provider of virtual queuing solutions, announced together with Corsidian that they have entered into a Managed Service Provider Agreement. This agreement will enable Corsidian to offer the Virtual Hold product suite to its customers in Latin America. Corsidian is one of the leading distributors and integrators of contact center technology in Latin America. According to Andrew Salisbury, CEO of Corsidian, “Our customers place a high value on customer service, and few technologies can improve customer service while providing a strong return on investment the way Virtual Hold does. We are very excited about this partnership with Virtual Hold Technology and the ability to offer this solution to our customers." Internationally, Virtual Hold is the leading virtual queuing solution for contact centers. Virtual Hold empowers customers by giving them a viable alternative to waiting on hold. Callers can choose to hang up and allow the Virtual Hold software to maintain their place in the queue. This gives customers the freedom to be productive while they await a return call in the same amount of time that they would have waited on hold. When their virtual placeholder reaches the front of the queue, Virtual Hold initiates a return call and then automatically connects them to an available agent. Taking customers off hold improves the overall customer experience. Virtual Hold is completely compatible with all major automatic call distributor (ACD), interactive voice response (IVR), routing and workforce management systems, including Avaya, Aspect, Nortel, Siemens, Alcatel, Cisco and Genesys. Corsidian purchased the Virtual Hold software suite and will offer the solution to its customers in Latin America. Mark Williams, President of VHT had this to say about the partnership: “This partnership will provide Corsidian with the ability to offer its customers a proven best-in-class solution, while providing Virtual Hold with major brand awareness and the ability to rapidly expand its market share in Latin America. We are very excited about our new partnership with Corsidian, and we are already seeing positive traction and acceptance of the technology within the Corsidian customer base.” About Virtual Hold Technology Virtual Hold Technology (VHT) is the leading developer of virtual queuing solutions for Fortune 1000 clients.
