Recognition follows top honors from Frost & Sullivan, and MSPmentor

HILLSIDE, N.J., March 4, 2010 - Glowpoint, Inc. (OTCBB: GLOW), a carrier-grade provider of managed services for telepresence and video conferencing, today announced being chosen as one of the best "Best Managed Conferencing Services Providers" by Telepresence and Videoconferencing Insight Newsletter. Companies were selected based on their "improved offering of managed telepresence and video conferencing services in 2009."

According to Telepresence and Videoconferencing Insight Newsletter Editor Richard Line, “Although the use of telepresence systems grew rapidly in 2009, the majority of video-enabled endpoints are still high-definition (HD) and standard-definition (SD) video conferencing endpoints. Glowpoint has led the pack in enabling its customers to interconnect all of these video endpoints. Glowpoint was the first to have this vision of creating a global video community and doing what is necessary to make it possible. That is why they won this award."

Telepresence and Videoconferencing Insight Newsletter is a well-established newsletter for the user of telepresence, video conferencing, and video-enabled unified communication systems. The editor recognized only seven companies worldwide for an award in 2009. Glowpoint was one of only two managed services providers located in the United States who are currently serving a global market.

This recognition follows other recent, unique accolades:

2009 "Excellence in Globalization" Award for Visual Collaboration Managed Services (Frost & Sullivan)

Criteria included possession of strategic global footprint, leveraging of global assets, and integration of processes/systems globally
Signifies Glowpoint's unique, "best in class" approach in the industry for managing growth, innovation, and leadership worldwide

Top Ten Ranking, MSPmentor 100, 2010 Edition (MSPmentor)

Rankings based on metrics such as annual revenue, revenue growth, and number of devices managed
Compares Glowpoint with 99 other managed service providers, in which it is the only provider exclusively focused on video communications as a service

Regarding the Telepresence and Videoconferencing Insight Newsletter acknowledgement, Glowpoint President and Co-CEO Joseph Laezza said, "We are proud of the increased global recognition Glowpoint has received. The significance of all of our recent honors is especially noteworthy, considering our unique status as a 'pure play video managed service provider' amid the companies considered for many of these distinctions. Not only do these honors reflect the growing importance of video managed services as an industry unto itself, but they highlight that our team continually demonstrates a 'best in class,' global approach."
