Press Release Body = Mountain View, Calif., April 5, 2007 - eGain Communications
(OTC BB: EGAN.OB), provider of the industry\'s top-rated* customer service and
contact center software for in-house or on-demand SaaS deployment, announced today
that CRM magazine has named eGain as the "One to Watch for 2007" in the web-support
services category.

The award was based on a combination of measures that included revenue,
year-over-year growth, and reputation for customer satisfaction, depth of
functionality, and company direction.

"The 'One to Watch' award was given to eGain for its continued innovation in
software and services for implementing customer interaction hubs. I look forward to
seeing their continued growth," said David Myron, Editorial Director, CRM magazine.

Jointly conceived and developed by eGain and its blue-chip customers, eGain ServiceT
directly addresses the mindset of today's consumers, who expect a broad choice of
communication channels and superior service quality when interacting with their
favorite brands. The software suite combines deep knowledge management and process
automation tools with a rich set of applications for managing the ever-growing

channels. The customer interaction hub (CIH) approach centralizes channel
management, knowledge bases, business rules, and analytical engines, and drastically
reduces the cost of managing multiple channels while improving customer experience
and process efficiencies.

support short message service (SMS) customer service interactions as well as
next-generation web self-service, chat, cobrowsing, email, fax, postal mail,
