WALNUT CREEK, CA--(Marketwire - November 27, 2007) - Workday™, Inc. today announced that Chiquita Brands International, Inc.

New customers include CareerBuilder.com, The Carlyle Group, Life Time Fitness (NYSE: LTM), The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Secure Computing, and Southwestern Energy Company.

What's New

-- Chiquita Brands International, a Fortune 500 company with more than 25,000 employees worldwide and with 2006 revenues of approximately $4.5 billion, conducted an extensive review of human resources solutions from leading providers and selected Workday based on:

* Workday's commitment to focus on the customer;

* The agility to meet the needs of Chiquita's unique global structure;

* The strategic potential of Workday's next-generation 'Web 2.0' interface and usability;

* The lower cost and long-term simplicity of on-demand architecture; and

* The risk and unpredictable costs inherent with on-premise software projects.

-- Workday is currently working with Chiquita to activate and implement Workday Human Capital Management across the organization.

-- Workday now has more than 25 customers, including organizations of fewer than 1000 employees and enterprises with 25,000 users or more, replacing both manual systems and on-premise ERP deployments.

"Partnering with Workday complements Chiquita's corporate strategy to build a high-performance organization by providing our human resources organization access to the management solutions that will enable us to focus more on our core competencies and deliver more value to the company," said Kevin Holland, senior vice president and chief people officer for Chiquita Brands International. "We expect this agreement will help us drive cost savings, while allowing us to concentrate on delivering innovative, higher-margin products to our customers and consumers."

"We're off-the-charts excited to welcome Chiquita Brands, one of the world's most recognizable companies, as a Workday customer," said Dave Duffield, Workday CEO and chief customer advocate. "Workday now has more than 25 customers, we've expanded our suite beyond Human Capital Management to include Financials, and we're seeing substantial interest from large enterprises. As we pass the first anniversary of our launch, across the board we're extremely happy with Workday's growth and achievements in 2007."

"Some people have been proclaiming that SaaS is only for small companies, but we're seeing exactly the opposite," Duffield continued. "Large, forward-thinking organizations see the cost benefits and superb customer experience available with on-demand solutions. We're proud to have this fabulous group of new customers joining Workday."
