CTI Group Announces SugarCRM Plug-In for Call Recording Archival


(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) INDIANAPOLIS, IN, January 22 / MARKET WIRE/ --

CTI Group (OTCBB: CTIG), a leading
industry developer of wireless and VoIP recording, analysis and invoice
management applications, announces system integration of SmartRecord? IP
with SugarCRM. With the release of SmartRecord? IP Version 2.0, users can
instantly archive calls, meetings, webinars, and negotiations to SugarCRM.

SmartRecord? IP is CTI Group's industry leading web-based, VoIP call
recording solution. With SmartRecord? IP, calls are recorded based on the
user's specifications and then archived for review on the MP3 format of the
user's choice. With the advancements in the VoIP technologies market, CTI
Group is constantly looking for ways to expand their call recording
solutions to make them more user-friendly and easier for companies to
integrate into their everyday operations.

SugarCRM is a commercial open source CRM solution that allows companies to
track and manage customer relations. As with most CRM solutions, Sugar
allows the user to archive emails, documents, quotes, etc. to track
activities and agreements. But, unlike other CRM solutions, SugarCRM is now
integrated with SmartRecord? IP to archive actual recorded calls.
Meetings, webinars, and negotiations can all be archived within the account
file for future review.

Before placing a follow up call, the user can review past correspondence to
make certain all questions have been answered and all deliverables have
been delivered. Being able to review all of the account details before
contacting a customer, will enable the user to more thoroughly support the
customer and instill confidence in the customer in their ability to stay
organized and on point.

"As a customer-oriented company, ourselves, we have enjoyed the advantages
of a CRM solution, first hand. We find that the more we can document or
archive to our CRM solution, the more thoroughly we can manage our
relationships. It was in that vein, that we decided to create this
SmartRecord? IP Plug-In to Sugar. This is just one of the many
advancements that SmartRecord? IP Version 2.0 offers," said Sid Rao,
Chief Technology Officer, CTI Group, Inc.
