Idiom Technologies and Acrolinx Integrate Tools to Provide Linguistic Quality Assurance Through WorldServer



    Idiom(R) Technologies, Inc. (Idiom), the leading independent
    supplier of SaaS and on-premise server-based globalization management
    systems (GMS), and Acrolinx, the leading producer of quality assurance
    tools for technical information, today announced their strategic
    partnership. The seamless integration of Acrolinx's Acrocheck(TM)
    solution within Idiom WorldServer(TM) will enable customers to further
    reduce their translation, terminology-capturing and quality control
    costs.

    Acrolinx's market-leading term harvesting and checking solution
    will improve the documented performance of Idiom translation memory by
    delivering accuracy and consistency from the start. Integration with
    the WorldServer terminology database and workflow ensures customers
    will manage terminology throughout the translation life cycle,
    including new terms added over time. This is possible because Acrolinx
    integrates seamlessly with the WorldServer terminology management
    repository to constantly provide intelligent advice to translators.
    This reduces translation time and costs, improves quality and
    minimizes the risk that poor translations will expose companies to
    legal liability. Acrolinx technologies have also been proven to
    dramatically increase translation reuse and facilitate machine
    translation.

    "We believe the integrity of translation starts at the source, and
    even the best processes can break down if the terminology and style is
    inconsistent," said Andrew Bredenkamp, CEO of Acrolinx. "We see
    WorldServer as the hub of translation activity, and our joint
    customers will benefit from the way in which our solutions complement
    one another within the workflow; customers are already reporting
    significant savings of up to 30% in their localization costs."

    "Through our partnership with Acrolinx, we're able to offer our
    customers a streamlined globalization process with the quality
    assurance they demand built right into the workflow," said Eric
    Silberstein, CTO, founder and chairman of Idiom Technologies. "We're
    pleased to enhance the performance of Idiom WorldServer through
    Acrolinx's proven solution, and, more importantly, enable our
    customers to reach new heights in translation quality and cost
    efficiency."
