        ComGates Selects RADVision's V2oIP(TM) Technology for Integration
                        Into New Carrier-Class Softswitch

   COMGATES' NEW SOFTSWITCH USES RADVISION'S MGCP AND H.323 ENABLING SOFTWARE

Mahwah, NJ, July 24th, 2000 -- RADVision (NASDAQ:RVSN),  the leading provider of
award-winning, industry-standard products and technology for real-time voice and

VoIP platforms,  announced today that RADVision's  award-winning  H.323 and MGCP
software  will  be  integrated  into  ComGates'  new  carrier-class   CSSW  4000
Softswitch.

The rapidly expanding  marketplace for converged voice, video, and data networks
requires  innovative  solutions  for  the  efficient   integration  of  multiple
-protocols  for real-time IP  communications.  The  integration  of  RADVision's
market-leading  enabling software  technology into ComGates'  carrier-class VoIP
platform  provides a solution  for  carriers  and service  providers  looking to
deploy value-added IP services for next-generation  communication  networks. The
combination of RADVision's market-proven  interoperable technology and ComGates'
unique softswitch  technology  addresses several key issues for IP telephony and
streaming media such as scalability, connectivity, interoperability, and QoS.

The ComGates  CSSW4000  Softswitch  is scheduled  for release in August 2000 and
will include the industry's first "multi-protocol, on-the-fly" capability, which
simultaneously supports H.323, SIP and MGCP.

According to ComGates' CEO,  Jacob Tirosh,  "The ComGates  CSSW4000  Softswitch,
with  its  multi-protocol  on the fly  technology  features,  will  support  and
contribute  to further  propel the rapid  proliferation  of voice and  streaming
media applications in IP centric networks on a global basis."

"Global IP-centric  communications  networks need to support multiple protocols.
RADVision  provides a family of enabling  software for a variety of real-time IP
communication   protocols.  Our  MGCP  and  H.323  technology  provides  service
providers  and  carriers  the  building  blocks  needed for creating a whole new
generation of enhanced  services for IP telephony,"  said Michelle  Blank,  vice
president of galactic  marketing for  RADVision.  "Softswitches,  like ComGates'
CSSW4000,  are the critical component needed for seamless  interworking  between
the  different  protocols.  The  combination  of  RADVision's  core IP telephony
technology with ComGates'  softswitch will reduce the development and deployment
time for value-added next generation IP services."
