Next-Generation Collaboration Solutions Designed to Increase Productivity Through Anywhere, Anytime Access

Latest Saba Centra Innovation to Connect People to Expertise via iPhone

People 2009 - Saba Summit

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Saba (NASDAQ: SABA), the premier people management software and services provider, today announced that it is extending its mobile capabilities to include iPhone access for Saba Centra suite of online learning and web conferencing solutions. This expanded mobile capability will add another dimension for executives and other company employees who want to share knowledge and exchange information in real-time with customers, partners, prospects and employees, while away from their desks or home offices.

“Saba continues to seek ways for organizations to take advantage of information that helps achieve business goals and improves results”

The Saba Centra iPhone application is designed to deliver the powerful web conferencing and collaboration capabilities of Saba Centra to users whenever they are away from their computers. Whether at the airport, in a taxi, or anywhere that "away from the office" might be, Saba Centra for the iPhone is intended to enable greater flexibility for participation in web conferencing, collaboration, and training.

“Saba continues to seek ways for organizations to take advantage of information that helps achieve business goals and improves results,” said Andrew Salzman, chief marketing officer, at Saba. “The addition of iPhone capabilities for Saba Centra will enrich Saba’s suite of mobile applications and build on our promise of connecting any employee, anywhere and anytime.”

Accessing Saba Centra through the iPhone, users will be able to quickly join into Saba Centra online conferences and virtual training events from any location. iPhone users will also be able to view any content that is being shared, whether a presentation, application or the presenter’s desktop. Users will be able to leverage the iPhone’s pinch and expand feature to zoom into the details or expand out to see the full screen, and use the landscape mode for enriched viewing. Saba Centra for the iPhone will support all 3G versions of the iPhone.

The People-Based Enterprise

More and more leading companies are implementing a comprehensive people strategy to manage their most valuable asset. With a people-based strategy employees can know and understand what their company's goals, strategies and values are so they can bring ideas to the table. People-driven enterprises allow for innovation to happen from the bottom-up, as well as from management-down.

Saba Centra, whether accessed via iPhone or otherwise, plays a critical role in people-based strategies by providing powerful collaboration and conferencing capabilities that connect people to expertise across the enterprise. In combination with Saba's unified suite of learning, succession, performance and workforce planning solutions, Saba Centra lets organizations capture and harness the skills, expertise, and knowledge of all participants, helping organizations create an innovative culture that drives success.

Saba Centra for the iPhone will be available in early 2010, downloadable from iTunes.
