Press Release Summary = CommuniGate Pro platform offers a more robust, secure, and
cost-effective solution for hosted SMB services compared to Microsoft Exchange

Press Release Body = Mill Valley, July 24, 2007 - CommuniGate Systems, the leader in
scalable carrier-class Rich Media Internet Communications solutions, today announced
that Ontario-based ASP, Aurora Online, has chosen the CommuniGate Pro platform to
provide a highly reliable Messaging and Groupware solution for its small- to
medium-sized business (SMB) subscribers. CommuniGate Pro's scalable messaging
platform gives Aurora a robust and secure solution to offer Messaging Services plus
offer Value Added Services with Rich Media and Mobile Applications.

CommuniGate Pro provides an extensible communications platform that can support
implementations of any size  from 5 to millions of users in virtual domains
with a powerful Class of Service modular feature set and live change management
capability not found in Microsoft Exchange. Aurora Online targets companies with
20-200 users that typically do not have large IT departments and do not want the
complexity of in-house Exchange or IP communications servers. The initial deployment
has 50 companies on the platform and offers unlimited growth potential. CommuniGate
Pro's unique Dynamic Cluster architecture provides 99.999% uptime and gives Aurora
Online the ability to easily add nodes as needed for increased capacity and Rich
Media services like VoIP or IPTV.

"We saw a huge opportunity to bring managed, high-performance e-mail and groupware
applications to businesses without the high costs and headaches associated with
Microsoft Outlook," said Rob Schuetze, President at Aurora Online. "We tested other
messaging solutions, and while other companies made similar performance claims,
CommuniGate Pro delivered. CommuniGate Pro has been easy to configure and maintain.
The system really does take care of itself."

CommuniGate Pro\'s innovative Pronto! flash client unlocks corporate e-mail from the
desktop, enabling end users to access all forms of Internet Communications from any
web browser, wherever they may be. Based on Adobe\'s latest Flex2 and Flash Rich
Internet Application technology, Pronto! is a sleek, easy-to-use web delivered
client framework that lacks the cumbersome features, like page refreshing, common in
webmail programs.

"We have seen a rapidly growing number of providers seeking out new services geared
toward the business subscriber, particularly in the SMB segment. With Pronto!, the
service provider does not need to install and support client side software and can
dramatically reduce service costs while offering a secure and portable client which
is capable of delivering Rich Media Internet Communications. The Extensible Pronto!
framework allows plug-ins to be developed such as games, shopping carts, and Media
Management technologies with a Class of Service Architecture delivering the most
powerful hosted option on the market," said Jon R. Doyle, VP Business Development at
CommuniGate Systems.

CommuniGate Pro supports Microsoft Outlook in full corporate workgroup mode, and the
Microsoft Messenger (Corporate client) for Windows and Mac. As a result, Aurora
Online's corporate customers can continue to utilize Microsoft Outlook for end
users, while switching the back end to the more robust, secure, and easy-to-manage
CommuniGate Pro server environment.

CommuniGate Pro's functionality extends beyond e-mail to increase productivity,
promote collaboration, and simplify Internet Communications. The performance-driven
platform offers an unprecedented single point of access for all voice and data -
VoIP, IM, chat, presence, rich media, groupware, e-mail, and more. With CommuniGate
Pro, Aurora Online customers can manage their e-mail, in addition to schedule
meetings, keep track of RSS news feeds, chat, upload photo, music, and videos all
