Serena's Process Management Solution Named 2005 Trend Setter by KMWorld Magazine

Serena TeamTrack Earns Accolades as Innovative Product that Delivers Real Value to Customers

San Mateo, CA – August 23, 2005 – Serena Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRNA), the world’s largest company solely focused on managing change in the IT environment, today announced that its process and issue management solution, Serena® TeamTrack®, has been recognized as a "Trend Setting Product" for 2005 by KMWorld Magazine.

Every year, KMWorld identifies the list of trend-setting products following discussions with KMWorld editorial colleagues, industry analysts and a host of users, ranging from C-level executives to entry-level knowledge workers. This is the second consecutive year that a Serena product has received this award. Last year Serena® Collage®, the company’s web content management solution, made the list.

"As was the case last year, we evaluated more than 200 vendors, whose combined offerings top the 1,200 mark," noted Hugh McKellar, KMWorld's editor in chief. "It bears mentioning that these are not the only trend-setting products on the market today, rather they are the ones upon which our panel agreed. As we have in years past we considered usability, flexibility, adoption rate and total cost of ownership."

"Delivering innovative solutions that address key business issues and provide real, bottom-line value to customers is our number one priority. This commitment is exemplified through world-class, award-winning products like TeamTrack that enable customers to work smarter and faster," said Mark Woodward, President and CEO of Serena. "We are extremely pleased to be recognized as a trend setter by KMWorld for two years running – this is a testament to our leadership in the market and very solid, happy customer base."
