BACKWEB’S ORDINARY SHARES COMMENCE TRADING ON
THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD UNDER THE SYMBOL “BWEBF”

SAN JOSE, CA – January 30, 2007 -- BackWeb Technologies Ltd. (OTC BB: BWEBF), a leading provider of software designed to provide unplugged access to enterprise web applications, confirmed that its Ordinary Shares have commenced trading today on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTC BB; www.otcbb.com) under the symbol “BWEBF.” The “F” in the symbol denotes a foreign company listing, as BackWeb’s headquarters are in Israel.

BackWeb’s Vice President, Finance, Ken Holmes, commented, “We appreciate the efforts of FINANCE 500, Inc., an NASD registered broker-dealer, for their sponsorship in achieving a listing for BackWeb’s shares on the OTC BB. We are confident that the OTC BB provides sufficient visibility and liquidity so as to provide a suitable market for our Ordinary Shares.”

BackWeb’s CEO, Bill Heye, stated, “We are pleased to have the OTC BB listing process completed. As indicated earlier this month when BackWeb released preliminary Q4 results, we remain encouraged by the pipeline of customer and partner opportunities we have developed so far for 2007. We are also pleased that our cost cutting initiatives should bring 2007 expenses – before any offsetting revenue contributions - to approximately $1.5 to $1.6 million per quarter, down from approximately $2.4 million per quarter in 2006. This streamlined operating structure should preserve our cash and better position us for growth in the future.”
