Halogen's User Conference Enables Human Resource Professionals to Strengthen Their Strategic Voice

OTTAWA, ON - September 27, 2007 - Halogen Software Inc., the leading
provider of award-winning Web-based employee performance and talent
management software today announced that its second annual User
Conference was an overwhelming success with nearly 200 customers in
attendance, double the attendance of its 2006 event. The Conference
offered nearly twenty dynamic educational sessions featuring keynote
speaker Mel Kleiman, an internationally recognized authority on attracting,
selecting, and retaining employees.

The Conference sessions offered great value to all attendees from new to
seasoned users, providing insight and practical how-to knowledge that will be
taken back and used to immediately enhance the way organizations use
Halogen's software. Sessions ranged from how to increase HR's strategic
voice and gain greater credibility with executives, to adapting Halogen
software to an organization's changing needs.

"This has been a remarkable experience—unequaled by anything else I've
attended in my 10-year career," said one Conference attendee. "I appreciate
Halogen's attention to detail and their efforts putting together such a well-
rounded, practical and motivational conference."

The Halogen Software User Conference provided a forum for clients to share
their perspectives on the challenges that face the HR community and how
using Halogen solutions enables them to effectively address these challenges.
As well, the Conference gave customers insight into Halogen's product
development road map for the immediate and longer term future.

"I can't wait to be part of next year's conference. As part of the client
advisory board, I am impressed with how Halogen sincerely listens to its
clients and actively integrates their suggestions into future versions of the
software," said Tony Elliott, Ecology Manager with McStain
Neighborhoods. "My input is valued by Halogen and being here at the
Conference has allowed me to learn how to maximize the enterprise-class
features that are part of the Halogen solution."
