Spectrum’s VectraView? Plasma Screen Solution Now Rated ‘Avaya Compliant’

Houston, TX — April 5, 2007

Spectrum Corporation, a leading a solutions-based sales organization specializing in contact center applications, today announced that its VectraView™ Suite software is compliant with key contact center solutions from Avaya (NYSE:AV), a leading global provider of business communications applications, systems and services.

VectraView Suite software creates dynamic graphical displays that can be distributed to a single screen or globally, empowering viewers with current information to make better decisions. Data from multiple sources can be combined to create colorful charts, gauges, messages, video or other graphical content displayed in real time. Businesses can feature real-time statistics or metrics, training videos, presentations, Web pages, corporate employee communications and news or financial information on plasma screens, flat panels, LCDs or large displays. Multilevel thresholds and automatic color schemes are additional features that add power and a very professional look to this easy to manage product. The application now is compliance-tested by Avaya for compatibility with the Avaya Call Management System, a solution that provides businesses with the tools they need to analyze and improve the performance of their contact center operations.

Spectrum Corporation is a member of the Avaya DeveloperConnection Program–an initiative to develop, market and sell innovative third-party products that interoperate with Avaya technology and extend the value of a company’s investment in its network.

“Integration with the Avaya’s open, standards-based platform of products was a natural for us and has been well-received worldwide,” said Gary Liddell, vice president of Spectrum Corporation. “Bringing the VectraView Suite to market and getting it in front of so many so quickly could not have been done without Avaya’s DeveloperConnection program. Compliance testing from Avaya was a crucial step in our development and ensures that our customers around the world get an innovative and reliable product that is compatible with their Avaya contact center operations.”

As a Platinum member of the DeveloperConnection program, Spectrum Corporation is eligible to submit products for compatibility testing by the Avaya Solution Interoperability and Test Lab in Lincroft, N.J. There a team of Avaya engineers develops a comprehensive test plan for each application to verify whether it is Avaya compliant. Doing so ensures businesses can confidently add best-in-class capabilities to their network without having to replace their existing infrastructure–speeding deployment of new applications and reducing both network complexity and implementation costs.

“By offering compliance testing to the many innovative companies like Spectrum Corporation who are members of our DeveloperConnection program, Avaya promotes fully interoperable solutions that help businesses unleash powerful new possibilities,” said Eric Rossman, vice president, developer relations and technical alliances, Avaya. “They are able to use Intelligent Communications to connect employees and customers to information from wherever they are, over whatever device they have available – getting more out of their multivendor network and delivering new value to their bottom line.”
