REDWOOD SHORES, CALIF., Sept 13, 2005 —Saba (NASDAQ: SABA), a leading provider of human capital management (HCM) solutions, today announced that usage of its Saba OnDemand™ application management service has more than doubled in the last year.

Seasoned Saba experts administer the application, in partnership with a top-tier secure data center, providing unmatched ability to quickly implement, tune and optimize the suite to fit each customer’s needs.
