Ecuity Launches National V-Tone Small Office VoIP Service; Gives Small Businesses the Convenience of Big Business Features



BELLEVUE, WA, Nov. 10 -- Ecuity, Inc., (OTC BB: ECUI.OB), an end-to-end unified communications and technologies company serving the small-to-medium business and residential markets, today announced the introduction of V-Tone Small Office, the home and small office version of its innovative voice over Internet phone (VoIP) service platform, which offers advanced telephone services to small business users anywhere in the country.

For the first time, small offices and home offices can take advantage of the robust features of an enterprise class PBX telephone system without investing thousands of dollars in long-term contracts, equipment and specialized personnel. Ecuity's V-Tone Small Office IP/PBX VoIP service makes it possible for small businesses with just a few lines, or remote users/telecommuters from larger businesses, to enjoy the features and flexibility of a major enterprise telecom infrastructure that is scaled to the needs and budget of the small/home office environment.

For only $50.00 a month, the V-Tone Small Office customer will receive unlimited long distance and a host of robust and advanced V-Tone features, offered at no additional charge, including:

- Caller ID, call waiting, call hold and three-way calling

- Automatic call forwarding

- SimulRing(TM) enables incoming calls to ring multiple phones or numbers for flexible pickup

- Automatic call distribution and Auto Attendant for group calling functionality

- Integration with Microsoft Outlook(TM) for direct dialing from the Outlook Contacts List

- On-Screen keypad dialing and volume control direct from your PC

- Voice mail messages delivered to Outlook as talking emails, plus

- Optional addition of Ecuity's Smart Call(TM) software for only $9.95 per month to extend V-Tone services to laptops or Pocket PC-compatible cell phones and PDAs for making mobile voWiFi calls.

V-Tone Small Office gives customers remote office capabilities that enable the small business user to set up four-digit extensions in multiple locations with easy management of features via a web interface. It also offers special V-Tone features, such as one or more telephone numbers in any of more than 2,500 locations nationwide, regardless of the physical location of offices. For example, a Denver office can have a "local" New York (212) Area Code number for East Coast customers. Included is the powerful simultaneous ring feature, which means that customer calls to a home office ring through to any phone the business owner defines, including a cell phone, home phone, or an offsite assistant. The business owner never misses a call and the customer need never know the business owner is out of the office.

King Cole, president of Ecuity, said, "For the millions of home offices and small offices around the country, Ecuity is pleased to offer this reasonably priced and full-featured service. Ecuity's V-Tone Small Office service extends to home and small business owners a compelling collection of exciting features that make small businesses seamlessly and conveniently look and act like big ones. Ecuity's V-Tone Small Office represents a giant step forward in power, convenience and presence."

V-Tone Small Office delivers call quality that is equal to or superior to fixed phone service. By attaching a low-cost telephone adaptor to any home or small office telephone, individuals can make top-quality and secure voice calls to any cell phone or regular phone anywhere in the world at substantial savings.

Jerry Schwartz, vice president of marketing of Ecuity, said, "Ecuity's V-Tone Small Office solution is a unique offering that is clearly distinguishable from small business offerings of other VoIP vendors and network carriers. Rather than just offering an extended version of residential service to small businesses, Ecuity has developed a full-featured business service for the small business that provides the power and functionality of a major enterprise PBX system at a fraction of the expected investment and operating costs."

V-Tone Small Office is available virtually anywhere in the country and in international markets today. It takes only a phone call to 1 866-41 VTONE (1 866-418-8663) or a visit to ecuity.net to arrange to install service or secure a custom solution quotation.
