NEW YORK, NY - May 24, 2004 - LivePerson, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPSN), a leading provider of software solutions for online communications including sales, marketing and customer service, today announced a strategic partnership with Evocative, Inc., a San Francisco Bay Area-based provider of eBusiness solutions.

Evocative and LivePerson have collaborated to integrate LivePerson's live chat tools into Evocative's comprehensive e-business management suite, enabling mutual clients to communicate more effectively and in real time with their online customers while they browse the online store and make purchases.

"We are pleased to announce the integration of LivePerson's award-winning chat capabilities with our e-commerce system. LivePerson gives our customers another way to compete in the crowded online marketplace by allowing them to interact with their online customers more quickly and cost-effectively than by email or the telephone," says Patrick Rigney, Evocative's CEO. "By using LivePerson, our merchants can interact with a consumer in real time and help them through the buying process, increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty and ultimately, sales.

"The Evocative integration with LivePerson gives both companies access to a broader customer base, allowing an increased number of clients to take advantage of the services that both companies provide," said Philippe Lang, General Manager of the LivePerson SMB group. "The partnership offers a midsize business a complete high-end eBusiness solution including real-time live chat tools to mutual clients using both Evocative's and Live Person's award winning solutions. One of the first Evocative customers to take advantage of this integration is MorrellWine.com, an online wine retailer."

"We offer thousands of different wines on our website, which can sometimes be overwhelming to our customers. With the addition of live chat, a visit to our website feels more like a visit to our store. We even use staff photos to engage the visitors in chat and give them the human touch experience," said Ron Scharman, CEO of MorrellWine.com. "LivePerson has not only improved the quality and level of our customer service but has also had a significant impact on our sales."
