“To be recognized again as a visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant is a testament, to our equally boundary-pushing customers like Dell, Virgin Atlantic, FlightCar, Yum! Brands and Guitar Center who inspire us with their strategic approach to driving better business with more intelligent talent management, “ said Tom Berquist, Saba CEO. “Saba’s proven track record in innovation makes Saba a great choice for companies looking to drive pioneering talent strategies. It also inspires us to continue to re-set the bar for an irresistibly easy to use and powerfully insightful technology solution.”
One of Saba’s innovative customers is Virgin Atlantic, which recently won an HR Excellence Award for its Learning and Development Strategy.
“We’re excited to be working with Saba as we transform our learning and talent processes,” said Joanne McGuire, VP of Organizational Development and Customer Training at Virgin Atlantic. “Saba’s comprehensive cloud offering unifies every aspect of learning technology which will accelerate the engagement, development, and inspiration of our employees. Saba Cloud enables us to extend our ‘loved for service’ learning by creating a simple user experience for delegates and instructors.”

Emily He, Saba’s Chief Marketing Officer, added that recognition in the report aligns with growing customer and prospect excitement about Saba’s:
- Learning solution as best in class, and its performance and succession solutions as strong.
- Integration between learning and development functionalities for development planning as a strength.
