REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. -- Saba Software, Inc. (NASDAQ:SABA), the premier people management software and services provider, today announced that the Illinois State Police, Santee Cooper, State of Connecticut, and State of Georgia Department of Public Health have selected Saba's people management platform. Saba's growing list of customers reflects the company's commitment to enabling a people management strategy that can help local, state, and federal governments provide effective and efficient public services to their constituents.

Government initiatives are driving the need for state, local and federal agencies to consolidate multiple systems to improve data sharing, increase organizational productivity and reduce costs. By providing these agencies with a robust, unified solution that delivers full talent management functionality without added customization, Saba's people management platform can enable government organizations to more effectively achieve their mission.

* Centralize people information to enable a unified approach to people management

"By implementing Saba, government organizations can manage critical people management processes more efficiently," said A.G. Lambert, vice president product marketing for Saba. "With more than three million users in the government market, Saba understands the unique needs of government, and we are pleased to see customers validating our approach."
