 Company retains top honors for second year in a row in awards from Speech

                            Technology Magazine



    ATLANTA, Aug. 25 /
EMWNews
/ -- Nexidia, the market-leading provider

of audio search and speech analytics solutions, today announced the company

has been named winner of Speech Technology magazine's 2008 Market Leader

Award in the Speech Analytics category for a second consecutive year.

Further extending its reputation for delivering the most powerful,

flexible, and affordable speech analytics solutions in the market, Nexidia

was presented with the prestigious award at the magazine's 14th Annual

SpeechTEK Conference and Exposition held in New York City from August

18-20.



    Established by Speech Technology in 2007, the Market Leader Awards are

judged by an independent panel of industry analysts and Speech Technology

editors. In the Speech Analytics category, judging was based on three

dimensions: accuracy, depth of functionality, and customer satisfaction. In

an article announcing award winners, the editors wrote that Nexidia

"retains the winner's spot it earned last year," again topping competitors

for both accuracy and overall customer satisfaction. The article also

highlighted Nexidia's unique pricing structure, which allows its customers

the low-risk flexibility to deploy in a 90-day QuickStart program before

committing to a long-term software license or managed services contract.



    During SpeechTEK 2008, Nexidia announced the release of the highly

anticipated next-generation version of the company's flagship product,

Enterprise Speech Intelligence (ESI) 7.0, as well as the availability of

Nexidia's "QuickStart Libraries," a knowledgebase of speech analytics

search routines enabling dramatically accelerated project delivery and

time-to-insight.



    Representing an evolutionary leap forward in speech analytics, ESI 7.0

features breakthrough visual reporting and analytics tools -- combined with

vastly improved search performance, scalability, and speed -- that enable

better and faster decision-making across a contact center's entire

operations. And because ESI can be integrated directly with all major call

recording platforms, these solutions are available to every contact center

no matter which call recorder they have deployed.



    "Recipients of the Speech Technology magazine's Speech Industry Awards

are recognized for accomplishments that stand out from the crowd," said

David Myron, editorial director of Speech Technology magazine. "They have

distinguished themselves through their individual accomplishments, service

to the industry and the implementation of truly innovative new applications

using speech technology."



    "It is an honor to once again be presented with this prestigious award

by the industry's leading publication at the biggest speech technology

event of the year," said John Willcutts, president and CEO of Nexidia Inc.

"From the start, we've focused on providing speech analytics solutions that

truly deliver business value to our customers by providing the most

relevant information in the most timely and cost effective manner. Winning

this Market Leader award is validation of that philosophy as well as a

testament to the hard work, dedication and creativity of all of our

people."



    SpeechTEK is the speech technology industry's annual showcase of new

products and services with leading companies from all over the world

applications using speech technology. Additional information on all the
