iLinc Adds 508 Accessibility To 8.0 Suite

Added Compliance Paves Way for Broader Federal Deployments PHOENIX, Arizona (January 10, 2007) â?? iLinc Communications, Inc.

PHOENIX, Arizona (January 10, 2007) –

iLinc Communications, Inc. (AMEX:ILC), developers of Web conferencing software and audio conferencing solutions, today announced accessibility support in its enterprise collaboration suite. The iLinc Suite has been designed following Section 508 guidelines, providing accessibility for all users. Federal agencies are required by law to make all content and programs offered on their Internet and intranet sites accessible.

“iLinc is committed to ensuring our products can be used by all people, including those with disabilities. We built the enterprise collaboration suite with a focus on accessibility guidelines as an underlying requirement,” said Nathan Cocozza, SVP Government Solutions. “Our goal is to provide our Federal customers with a solution that meets or exceeds accessibility guidelines and also provides simple integration with Assistive Technologies to further extend the products capabilities.”

“As use of Web conferencing becomes more widespread, it is important that the features of this increasingly indispensable business tool are accessible to as many people as possible,” noted Jeffrey Mann, Research Vice President with Gartner Research.

“Accessibility is a very important issue for federal agencies. iLinc’s design standards are what set it apart from other collaboration technologies, which are focused solely on the corporate market,” said Robert van Hoof, CEO, Strategic Vision. “iLinc is the most feature-rich and secure collaboration platform available for federal agencies. Now it is also the most accessible.”

iLinc’s enterprise collaboration suite is already in use by thousands of federal employees, including members of the US Coast Guard, Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, US Army, and major defense contractors such as Boeing and EDS. Today’s announcement paves the way for broader deployments of the technology, providing fully accessible solutions that meet government guidelines.

“Our commitment to the government sector is an important part of iLinc’s growth strategy,” said James M. Powers, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of iLinc Communications. “We continue to receive accolades from new government customers who appreciate our US-developed software that meets all security, scalability, and accessibility standards.”
