across Systems Stands Alone As Only Remaining Independent Provider for Translation Management Software
The across Language Server Provides a Software Platform for Corporate Language Resources and Translation Processes
KARLSBAD, Germany & GLENDALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--After the acquisition of Idiom by SDL, across Systems, a leading provider of corporate translation management solutions, remains the only translation technology provider whose core business is software development.
across offers an independent technology without translation and localization services, making it the best choice for corporations of all sizes, as well as for language service providers.
The across Language Server is a central platform for corporate language resources and translation processes. Besides offering translation memory and a terminology system, it also includes powerful project management and workflow controls. Its distinguishing feature is its ability to enable customers, agencies and translators to seamlessly work with the same data. Open interfaces enable the seamless integration of corresponding systems such as Content Management Systems (CMS) or Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions.
As globalization has grown, so has the demand for multilingual content. This has spurred the development of an industry of language services and translation technologies. The acquisition of Idiom by SDL further signals the trend of big service providers trying to retain their customers by means of a proprietary technology.
across, which is a spin-off of renowned Nero AG with more than 240 million users worldwide, has taken a different approach by offering an independent, highly integrated, industry-demand-oriented solution. With its Language Server across Systems introduced the linguistic supply chain, which unites all the work steps, internal and external team members and corresponding systems along the translation process in a single working environment.
Niko Henschen, CEO of across, says, "International business has become too important to allow the industry to make it dependent on a single service provider. We have acquired significant market share in a very short time with our independent technology. For example we have more than 20 percent of the market in Europe, and have experienced significant growth in North America with the same strategy. The acquisition of Idiom by SDL will further accelerate our worldwide growth."
