Saba Positioned in Visionaries Quadrant in Latest Web Conferencing Magic Quadrant

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.
