SAN MATEO, Calif., Apr 02, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- SuccessFactors, Inc. (NASDAQ:SFSF), the global leader in on-demand performance and talent management solutions, announced today that SuccessConnect 2009 will bring together more customers across all regions and industries by taking place locally in San Francisco, Chicago, and New York in June.

Intended for organizations committed to optimizing and aligning their workforces with business goals and strategy, SuccessConnect 2009's new localized format and free registration underscores SuccessFactors commitment to customer success.

• Chicago, June 15-16 at the Summit Executive Centre; and,

"With today's economic environment in mind, we made the decision to change the format of SuccessConnect Annual User Conference to fit the budget and needs of our customers by having the conference tour three cities: San Francisco, New York and Chicago," said Lars Dalgaard, founder and CEO of SuccessFactors. "It's a new, but very strategic format that gives our customers an even better opportunity to listen, learn and share with peers about how to maximize the performance of their businesses, and it makes this event accessible to more customers across North America. We've already seen immense interest and record number of submissions for presentations and we're anticipating another successful event with record global attendance."

SuccessConnect 2009 will also give customers a chance to meet one-on-one with the SuccessFactors' executives so that they can share company goals and discuss how to implement new strategies. Advanced Admin Bootcamps, a main stage and popular sessions, which were sold out at SuccessConnect 2008, will take place in San Francisco, Chicago and New York and will feature experts delivering best practices on how to effectively manage SuccessFactors solutions.
