NEW YORK, NY - February 13, 2007 - LivePerson, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPSN), a provider of online conversion solutions, today announced that Timpani Voice™ has been named a finalist in the "Best Communications Solution" category of the 2007 CODiE Awards, presented by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA).

Timpani Voice™ is an enterprise click-to-talk solution that helps e-commerce organizations proactively address consumer buying concerns and increase conversions from website visitors. Leveraging real-time analytics and business rules, Timpani Voice™ identifies targeted visitor segments while they're online and brokers an immediate connection with telephone agents, bypassing conventional voice recognition and automated phone menu options.

"We're proud to have been chosen by our peers and the journalism community as a finalist in this year's CODiE Awards," said LivePerson CEO Robert LoCascio. "Timpani Voice has already been received with enthusiasm by our customer base as an effective way to bridge the gap between the call center and the Web. This recognition is further testament to the dedication of the LivePerson team and the value we're delivering to our customers."

"The 2007 CODiE Finalists represent real winners, even at this stage of the contest," said Ken Wasch, SIIA President. "Competition is fiercer than ever, and that makes selection as a CODiE Finalist a major achievement. All the companies on this year's list should feel justifiably proud of their recognition."

With the addition of voice to Timpani Sales & Marketing™, LivePerson's hosted engagement marketing platform, businesses can deliver a consistent, seamless experience across all sales and service channels: phone, chat, email and self-service. Timpani Voice™ features Invite-to-Talk™, a proactive application that introduces the voice channel to online visitors based on behavioral events such as site navigation and shopping cart abandonment.
