ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

             Not Applicable.


ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

             Not Applicable.


ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

             The Indiana Business Corporation Law provides that a
corporation, unless limited by its articles of incorporation, is
required to indemnify its directors and officers against
reasonable expenses incurred in the successful defense of any
proceeding arising out of their serving as a director or officer
of the corporation.

             As permitted by the Indiana Business Corporation
Law, the Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation provide
for indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents
of the Registrant against any and all liability and reasonable
expense that may be incurred by them, arising out of any claim or
action, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in
which they may become involved by reason of being or having been
a director, officer, employee or agent. To be entitled to
indemnification, those persons must have been wholly successful
in the claim or action or the board of directors must have
determined, based upon a written finding of legal counsel or
another independent referee, or a court of competent jurisdiction
must have determined, that such persons acted in good faith in
what they reasonably believed to be the best interest of the
Registrant (or at least not opposed to its best interests) and,
in addition, in any criminal action, had reasonable cause to
believe their conduct was lawful (or had no reasonable cause to
believe that their conduct was unlawful). The Restated Articles
of Incorporation authorize the Registrant to advance funds for
expenses to an indemnified person, but only upon receipt of an
undertaking that he or she will repay the same if it is
ultimately determined that such party is not entitled to
indemnification.

             The Registrant also has an Indemnity Agreement with
each of its directors and executive officers.  The standard for
indemnification under the Indemnity Agreement is substantially
the same as under the Registrant's Restated Articles of
Incorporation.  The Indemnity Agreement, however, provides for
mandatory advancement of expenses if the indemnitee provides the
Registrant with a written affirmation of the indemnitee's good
faith belief that he or she is entitled to indemnification and a
written undertaking to repay the advance if it is ultimately
determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to
indemnification.  The undertaking need not be secured.  The
Indemnity Agreement also provides for mandatory advancement of
expenses in derivative actions on behalf of the Registrant
against an indemnitee.

             The rights of indemnification provided by the
Restated Articles of Incorporation and the Indemnity Agreements
are not exhaustive and are in addition to any rights to which a
director or officer may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a
matter of law. Irrespective of the provisions of the Restated
Articles of Incorporation and the Indemnity Agreements, the
Registrant may, at any time and from time to time, indemnify
directors, officers, employees and other persons to the full
extent permitted by the provisions of applicable law at the time
in effect, whether on account of past or future transactions.

             In addition, the Registrant has a directors' and
officers' liability and company reimbursement policy that insures
against certain liabilities under the Securities Act, subject to
applicable retentions.


ITEM 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

             Not Applicable.


ITEM 8.  EXHIBITS.

             The list of Exhibits is incorporated herein by
             reference to the Index to Exhibits.


ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

             The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

             (1) To file, during any period in which offers or
                 sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
                 to this registration statement:

                 (i)  To include any prospectus required by
                      section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
                      1933;

                 (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
                      events arising after the effective date of
                      the registration statement (or the most
                      recent post-effective amendment thereof)
                      which, individually or in the aggregate,
                      represent a fundamental change in the
                      information set forth in the registration
                      statement;

                 (iii)     To include any material information
                           with respect to the plan of
                           distribution not previously disclosed
                           in the registration statement or any
                           material change to such information in
                           the registration statement;

                 Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and
                 (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required
                 to be included in a post-effective amendment by
                 those paragraphs is contained in periodic
                 reports filed with or furnished to the
                 Commission by the registrant pursuant to section
                 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
                 Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
                 in the registration statement.

             (2) That, for the purpose of determining any
                 liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
                 such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
                 be a new registration statement relating to the
                 securities offered therein, and the offering of
                 such securities at the time shall be deemed to
                 be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

             (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-
                 effective amendment any of the securities being
                 registered which remain unsold at the
                 termination of the offering.

             The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that,
for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report
pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

             Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the
registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

     Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We  have acted as counsel to Interactive Intelligence, Inc.,
an Indiana  corporation  (the  "Company"), in connection with the
preparation  and  filing  with  the   Securities   and   Exchange
Commission  (the  "Commission")  of  the  Company's  Registration
Statement  on  Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") under  the
Securities Act of  1933  (the  "Act"),  registering the offer and
sale  of  up to 5,863,704 shares of the Company's  Common  Stock,
$0.01 par value  (the  "Shares"),  pursuant to the Company's 1995
Incentive Stock Option Plan, as amended,  1995 Nonstatutory Stock
Option  Incentive  Plan,  1999 Stock Option and  Incentive  Plan,
Outside Directors Stock Option  Plan,  as  amended (the "Plans"),
Stock Option Agreement between the Company and  Donald  E. Brown,
M.D.,  dated  September  22, 1998, Stock Option Agreement between
the Company and Jon Anton,  D.Sc.,  dated May 26, 1999, and Stock
Option Agreement between the Company  and  Michael P.  Cullinane,
dated May 26, 1999 (the "Stock Option Agreements").

     In  so  acting,  we  have  examined  and  relied   upon  the
originals,  or  copies  certified or otherwise identified to  our
satisfaction, of such records, documents and other instruments as
in our judgment are necessary  or  appropriate  to  enable  us to
render the opinion expressed below.

     Based  on  the  foregoing,  we  are  of the opinion that the
Shares  have  been  duly  authorized and, when  the  Registration
Statement shall have become  effective  and  the Shares have been
issued  in  accordance  with  the  Plans  or  the  Stock   Option
Agreements,  the  Shares  will  be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

     Our opinion expressed above is limited to the federal law of
the United States and the law of the State of Indiana.

     We  hereby  consent to the filing  of  this  opinion  as  an
exhibit to the Registration  Statement.   In giving such consent,
we  do  not thereby concede that we are within  the  category  of
persons whose  consent  is required under Section 7 of the Act or
the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder.

                                        Very truly yours,

                                        /s/ BAKER & DANIELS
