Enables Compliance With Regulations, While Providing Lower Total Cost of Ownership

RA'ANANA, Israel, April 22/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NICE Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: NICE), the global provider of advanced
solutions that enable organizations to extract Insight from Interactions to
drive performance, today announced significant new capabilities, which are
available in its new NICE Perform release, that is part of NICE SmartCenter.

management, including the newly introduced Quality Optimization solution and
interaction analytics on a mass scale, when needed.

Controllers (SBC) vendors. Companies standardizing on SIP across the

virtualization, NICE helps organizations consolidate and reduce their
operational IT and other data center related costs such as; floor space,
hardware and maintenance related costs, and overhead and consolidate the
number of servers in use.

IP-enabled recording to organizations," said Neil Segall, Vice President,
Enterprise, Contact Center & Government Solutions at Acme Packet "We are
happy to offer a combined solution with NICE, the market leader, to help our
customers lower total cost of ownership and assure best-in-class security and
availability." Acme (NASDAQ: APKT) is a leading network infrastructure

maximizing the performance of their investments," said Udi Ziv, Chief Product
Officer. "This expansion of NICE's offering for contact centers and
