Alchemy CATALYST helps organizations localize faster for international markets

Alchemy CATALYST 9.0’s new breakthrough desktop translation memory maximizes translation reuse and shortens project cycles

 

Dublin, Ireland – October 25th 2010: Alchemy Software Development Limited, the world leader in visual localization solutions, today announced the release of Alchemy CATALYST 9.0, the newest generation of the world’s most popular visual localization technology. 

 

Alchemy CATALYST 9.0 supports all aspects of the localization workflow, from translation, engineering, testing and project management. Using Alchemy CATALYST 9.0 you can enjoy:

 

·         Huge Localization Costs Savings: Using Alchemy’s ezMatch™ Translation Memory technology, ensures that you never translate a sentence twice and it can be re-used several times. This improves productivity and results in significant translation savings. Additionally, since ezMatch™ technology also re-uses layout information, you also enjoy significant productivity gains in localization engineering and testing. Savings of 50-60% are possible depending on the quality of your translation memories.

 

·         Higher Quality Translation: Alchemy CATALYST hides the complexity of underlying technology and file formats, presenting text for translation in highly visual and contextually rich editing environments. This enables the translator focus on the accuracy and precision of their translations, helping organizations improve the quality of their software applications and improving their corporate brand image.

 

·         Rapid Return On Investment: Organizations that have deployed Alchemy CATALYST within their localization workflow have enjoyed savings on direct translation costs combined with productivity gains in engineering and testing. Coupled with faster release times to international markets, these benefits make a rapid return on investment a certainty. In a typical deployment, a return on investment can be achieved in three to six months or shorter.

 

“In today’s challenging economic climate, our clients require solutions that lower overall costs, reduce time-to-market and improve quality.” said Tony O’Dowd, CEO Alchemy Software Development, ” The Alchemy Scheduler meets this requirement head-on. It’s one of the new innovations that helps Project Managers use workflows to automate many of their daily tasks in preparing, analyzing and pretranslating projects. Combine this with our new groundbreaking Alchemy desktop TM, Project Managers can now increase their productivity by working on several projects simultaneously.”

 

“Alchemy CATALYST 9.0 is especially powerful on Microsoft .NET and WPF applications”, said Enda McDonnell, Chief Architect Alchemy Software Development, “Using our technological advanced display and rendering engine for .NET applications, we can now achieve higher more visual display of Microsoft WPF applications too. This simplifies the localization, engineering and testing of these complex web based applications.”
