Saba Delivers Comprehensive Web Conferencing and Collaboration to
Accelerate Informal Learning Effectiveness and Improve Organizational
Productivity
Saba (NASDAQ:SABA), the premier people management software and services
provider, today announced that it has been positioned in the Visionaries
Quadrant of the 2008 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Web Conferencing.1
The Magic Quadrant positions vendors according to their ability to
execute and their completeness of vision.
According to Gartner, “Real-time collaboration
support is becoming a primary requirement, after e-mail, for efficient
enterprise communications. Web conferencing not only allows people to
collaborate virtually and share information, it also provides facilities
to record and capture formal or ad hoc collaborative interactions for
later tracking and reuse. As organizations develop their collaboration
strategies from a technical and people perspective, Web-conferencing
penetration rates will increase because of the cost savings and
productivity improvements Web conferencing brings.”
“Saba Centra enables organizations to
facilitate a culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing that
increases productivity across the extended enterprise,”
said A. G. Lambert, vice president of marketing for Saba. “We
believe being placed in the Visionaries Quadrant illustrates our
commitment to creating an innovative Web Conferencing and collaboration
solution that can improve business performance by enabling our customers
to bring people together regardless of location and unify formal and
informal processes across the talent management lifecycle.”
Saba Centra is a dynamic, easy-to-use Web Conferencing and collaboration
solution that enables rapid knowledge capture and transfer. Saba Centra
enables community-based content creation with an innovative recording
studio, extends online learning effectiveness with more accessible
hands-on training and drives usage of Web conferencing and collaboration
through ease of use and integration with popular business applications.
By capturing knowledge-transfer as it happens, organizations can enhance
how they collaborate among globally distributed employees, customers and
partners.
