KANSAS CITY, MO--(Marketwire - August 18, 2009) - AltiGen Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATGN), a leading provider of 100 percent Microsoft-based VoIP businessphone systems and unified communications solutions, announced today at theannual Boomer Technology Circle conference that its VoIP solution hasprovided significant return on investment for accounting firm memberGifford & Cox, LLC.

Gifford & Cox, LLC is a firm of Certified Public Accountants andConsultants with offices across Western Nebraska. The firm's services areprovided to closely held companies and family owned businesses such as taxplanning and preparation, accounting and auditing.

"Our firm maintains offices in four cities during tax season," notedGifford & Cox Partner Kyle Gifford. "During the rest of the year, weprovide services from two offices. We had traditional phone systems ineach location, and adapting to the seasonal increase and decrease in staffwas difficult and expensive to maintain. These limitations made itdifficult for staff and clients to communicate. It also directly impactedcustomer satisfaction, as well as the amount of time accountants were ableto spend with clients. While looking for a solution, we were referred toAltiGen by Gary Boomer, the founder of the accounting association BoomerTechnology Circles."

By implementing AltiGen's VoIP solution, Gifford & Cox, LLC is now able to:

-- Communicate across all four offices as if employees were in the same building-- Easily connect clients with employees who move from office to office-- Allow staff in all locations to answer incoming phone calls from any location-- Utilize call reporting to easily track and bill time spent with clients via the phone-- Schedule and connect clients and employees using AltiGen's integrated conference bridge

"The AltiGen platform provides seamless connectivityand a single system view for all of the firm's employees, irrespective ofwhere they happen to be working at that moment."

"I am personally capturing 15-30 minutes of billable time each day thatwithout a doubt I've been missing over the years," added Gifford. "When wefactored this across our entire team, we found we would be able to recoupour entire investment in the AltiGen system within six months. Evenbetter, we've made it much easier for our clients to work with us."
