NEOTEL SELECTS DORADO SOFTWARE FOR DEPLOYING VOICE, DATA,
AND VIDEO SERVICES

FOLSOM, CA, July 19, 2007 – Dorado Software, Inc., a leading provider of IT infrastructure management software, today announced that Neotel, South Africa’s Second National Operator (SNO), is implementing select Redcell™ products to manage their nationwide IP core network, and to provision and activate high-performance, leading-edge voice, data, and video communications services for residential and business customers.

Neotel selected Dorado Software for the company’s ability to efficiently operate their multi-vendor environment and activate new services end-to-end from a unified, seamless, and scalable architecture. Redcell integrated products provide granular device management of Neotel's Juniper Networks core, Cisco Systems Metro Ethernet environment, and their multi-vendor Metro Ethernet CPE portfolio, in addition to providing end-to-end service activation across the network. By consolidating the management of their edge-to-core environment, Neotel can dramatically reduce provisioning times and their infrastructure’s total cost of ownership, to speed revenue, satisfy customers, and drive more profit into their business.

“Dorado Software’s Redcell products enable end-to-end provisioning and fault management capabilities to support Neotel’s IP Network. Redcell was selected through a competitive process among several leading solution providers. We are pleased to have partnered with Dorado Software,” says Pravir Dahiya, Head of Networks, Neotel.

"We are extremely pleased that Dorado’s Redcell Suite has been selected by Neotel to form the core of its infrastructure management platform,” said Jeremy Brett, Vice President of EMEA Operations at Dorado Software. “Neotel has seen the huge benefit of having enhanced Juniper, Cisco and other vendor device management, as well as service activation capabilities from a single unified platform. Additionally, the opportunity to extend Redcell's provisioning capabilities to Neotel's customers through Redcell Dynamic Controller provides Neotel with a significant competitive advantage."

Neotel selected Redcell Management Center for advanced device configuration, Redcell NetConfig for configuration file management, Redcell Assure for event management, Redcell MPLS Manager for MPLS network configuration, Redcell VPN Service Center-MPLS for simplified creation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) services, and Redcell Dynamic Controller for integration and customer self-provisioning.

About Neotel

Neotel is the first national infrastructure-based competitor in the fixed line telecoms sector in South Africa. The company aims to reduce the cost of doing business by enhancing the operational efficiencies of companies through the optimal use of advanced communications technologies, and to extend these benefits into the second economy. Much has changed in the telecoms market in recent months, in South Africa as well as globally.

Recognising the changing requirements of telecoms users in South Africa, Neotel is building itself to be a preferred provider of leading-edge telecommunications, well beyond the traditional concept of a fixed line operator. Its various telecom licences, including the PSTS Licence issued to Neotel as the second national operator of South Africa, allow the company to provide the entire range of telecoms services with the exception of full mobility.
