Company attributes 310 percent revenue growth to its expanded fixed, mobile, and converged communications capabilities

Austin, Texas and Orange, Conn., October 15, 2007 — Tangoe, Inc., a leading global provider of enterprise communications lifecycle management software and technology-driven solutions announced that it has been ranked number 39 on Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Texas. The 2007 Fast 50 Program—based on revenue growth percentage over the five years from 2002–2006—is a ranking of the fifty fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, and life sciences companies in Texas by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, one of the nation’s leading professional services organizations. Tangoe’s ranking reflects the revenue growth of TRAQ Wireless prior to the merger with Tangoe, Inc. in March 2007.

Tangoe chairman and former TRAQ Wireless president and CEO Rick Pontin credits the Company's 310 percent five year revenue growth to its ability to address expanding customers needs with innovative solutions capable of managing the complete range of fixed, mobile and converged communication processes. The average revenue growth of Deloitte’s Texas Technology Fast 50 companies was 1,766 percent.

“Being recognized by Deloitte as one of Texas’ fastest growing technology companies is a reflection of our ability to address the explosive growth of fixed, mobile, and data communications and the evolving needs of the marketplace,” commented Pontin. “We’ve developed our communication lifecycle management solutions in direct response to the needs of global organizations looking to manage all of their communication processes in a comprehensive and unified way.”

Tangoe and TRAQ Wireless merged in March 2007 and the newly formed company is a recognized leader in the telecommunications lifecycle management marketplace. The Company also has more than 250 leading global clients, comprehensive technology-based solution offerings, multiple technology patents, extensive domain expertise, and a robust global channel partner program.

“Deloitte’s Texas Technology Fast 50 companies have shown the strength, vision and tenacity to succeed in today’s very competitive technology environment,” said Skip Moore, Deloitte & Touche LLP, Managing Partner, Technology, Media & Telecommunications. “We applaud the successes of Tangoe and acknowledge it as one of the very few to accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past five years.”

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 2002 and $5,000,000 in 2006, be headquartered in North America, and be a company that owns proprietary technology or proprietary intellectual property that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues; or devotes a significant proportion of revenues to the research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify.

Companies from the 16 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United States and Canada are automatically entered in Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 program, which ranks North America’s top 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies.
