NICE will enable this city`s public authorities to enhance security provision at public areas, including public transportation, government buildings and other institutions. The solution will enable the city`s command and control centers to enhance public security by simultaneously monitoring multiple sites, with analytic capabilities and automatic alarm management.
NICE`s solution, with advanced transmission, recording and content analysis capabilities will deliver real-time alerts on potential threats to security personnel and to the public.

Such proactive management and assessment of alarms and the correlating potential risk will enable the city`s police and other security personnel to anticipate security breaches and improve response time. The result is enhanced safety and security for the region`s residents.

NICE SmartCenter(TM) for the High Performance Contact Center and Enterprise to be Featured at the NICE User Group 2007 Summit
Ra`anana, Israel, July 19, 2007 - NICE Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: NICE), a leading global provider of advanced solutions that enable organizations to extract Insight from Interactions(TM) to drive performance, today announced that it will feature NICE SmartCenter(TM) for the high performance contact center and enterprise at the upcoming NICE User Group (NUG) 2007 Summit, to be held in Boston, Massachusetts. Executives from Microsoft, EMC, Avaya, LENDING.com, DIRECTV, and CUNA Mutual are among the featured partner and customer Summit speakers. Key-note speakers include Jerry Greenfield, from Ben & Jerry`s, and Keith Dawson from leading analyst firm, Frost & Sullivan.
Special tracks at the Summit include sessions covering how NICE SmartCenter for the high performance contact center and enterprise, empowers agents, optimizes operations, impacts the enterprise, and helps achieve a faster ROI, helps leverage the benefits of adaptive interaction analytics, and KPI-based (key performance indicators) management principles.
Keith Dawson, senior analyst at Frost & Sullivan said, "The driving force behind contact centers has for so long been cost-control that many people have lost sight of just how powerful an operation a contact center can be. When finely tuned for high performance, a contact center is the key to providing a better customer experience - and that leads to a stronger, more profitable company overall. Achieving high performance means being collaborative with the rest of the enterprise, and finally call centers are learning how to do just that. The latest-generation tools on the market are masterful at kicking a center into high gear. Contact center managers now see that."
NICE SmartCenter provides organizations with capabilities to improve performance at the agent, operational and enterprise levels. The solution drives contact center and enterprise performance by leveraging the synergies of the combined capabilities of NICE Perform®, IEX® TotalView® workforce management system and Performix(TM) solutions from NICE; each the leading solution in its category, unified within a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) framework, providing powerful functionality with maximum flexibility.
"Since its formation NUG has grown to 2,500 members from all over the world. The user group enables its members to leverage the experience and knowledge of peers and to maximize the benefits of NICE`s solutions. We are excited about having this year`s Summit as the platform for demonstrating to our customers the NICE SmartCenter solution for the high performance contact center and enterprise," said Zvi Baum, President of Enterprise Interaction Solutions at NICE.
