MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - 06/25/09) - eGain Communications Corporation (OTC.BB:EGAN - News), the leading provider of multichannel customer service and knowledge management software, on-site and on-demand, today launched a program that will allow enterprises with obsolete and non-integrated systems for customer service management to easily switch to eGain's top-rated solution for multichannel customer service. The promotion is available immediately to US and Canadian businesses that have existing on-site deployments from the vendors listed later in this announcement.

Enterprises with legacy, non-integrated customer service products face non-existent product road maps or costly, forklift upgrades to new unproven versions. eGain provides an established, cost-effective alternative with eGain Service(TM), the industry's most comprehensive customer interaction hub software suite. It offers rich next-generation web self-service, chat, co-browsing, email, SMS, fax, postal mail and notification management, call tracking and resolution, knowledge management, and service fulfillment capabilities on a common platform. Unlike CRM generalists, eGain has focused exclusively and consistently on enterprise customer service needs, delivering unified, best-of-breed customer service applications on a single platform.

To make it easy for businesses to move to eGain, the company is launching the eGain SafeSwitch Program. Here are the details:

�
--  Incumbent on-site software deployments that qualify for this program
    include those from the following vendors:
      --  Brightware/FirePond
      --  Colloquis
      --  Kaidara
      --  KANA
      --  KNOVA/Consona
      --  Mustang/Quintus
      --  noHold
      --  Talisma
--  No license fee for acquiring eGain software to replace existing vendor
    licenses, one for one. The client will pay the ongoing support fee.
--  Proven, rapid, and low-cost adapter-based upgrade to eGain Service.
    Typical conversion effort would be in weeks, not months.

"Businesses are actively replacing dead-end vendor products in favor of cost-effective, leading-edge platforms for unified multichannel customer service," said Ashu Roy, CEO of eGain. "Our SafeSwitch Program will make the decision even easier for them."
