FORTUNE Small Business Ranks Interactive Intelligence Among America’s 100 Fastest Growing Small Public Companies

Interactive Intelligence Ranked Tenth Overall; Ranked Second Among

Technology Companies

INDIANAPOLIS–(EMWNews)–FORTUNE Small Business magazine has ranked global provider of unified IP

business communications solutions, Interactive Intelligence (Nasdaq:

ININ), tenth among its list of 100 fastest growing small public

companies in America.

Interactive Intelligence was ranked second among the magazine’s

fastest growing technology companies.

Interactive Intelligence achieved its tenth-place ranking with 26.2

percent revenue growth, 152.3 percent earnings per share, and an 80.2

percent total return to investors based on a three-year annualized rate.

“Our rapid growth is largely due to our

increasing focus on global enterprise customers and innovative,

first-to-market technology approach,” said

Interactive Intelligence founder and CEO, Dr. Donald E. Brown. “We’ve

aggressively gone up-market over the last three years, providing more of

our IP-based contact center, IP PBX, and enterprise messaging products

to larger organizations around the world. This has been a complement to

our already strong position in the mid-market. We’ve

also benefited from our innovation and early adoption of the SIP

standard as the market has made a significant shift to voice over IP.”

Interactive Intelligence first released its all-in-one

IP communications software suite in 1997 offering standards-based,

single-platform architecture designed to eliminate the cost and

complexity introduced by multi-point products. The company’s

product line includes multi-channel routing, outbound predictive

dialing, IP PBX functionality, call and screen recording, workforce

management, unified messaging, and more.

Today, the company gives its more than 3,000 global customers a

comprehensive solution-set comprised of premise-based and hosted

offerings, including software, hardware, consulting, support, education,

and implementation services.

The FSB ranking, compiled by financial research firm Zacks, includes

U.S.-based public companies with revenues of less than $200 million and

a stock price of more than $1 based on percentage growth in earnings,

revenue, and stock performance over the past three years.

The FSB 100 list appears in the July/August issue of FORTUNE Small

Business, available online at http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fsb/fsb100/2008/index.html.
