New Globalization Solution Accelerates Time-to-Market for Localized Web Presences and Global Marketing Campaigns
BOSTON, June 3, 2010 – Day Software, (SIX: DAYN, OTCQX: DYIHY), a provider of open, standards-based content management and content infrastructure software, and Translations.com, the world's largest privately-held provider of language services and translation-related technologies, today announced a joint solution to enable online marketers to rapidly launch new local market web presences and global marketing campaigns. Translations.com extends Day CQ5's support for global brand marketing with a new pre-built integration to accelerate and optimize the translation and localization process. With this solution, online marketers can drive greater brand awareness and campaign effectiveness with websites tailored to the unique requirements of a specific country or region. Day customers can immediately download and evaluate the Translations.com extension through Day's newly announced PackageShare service.
The joint solution allows online businesses to create new marketing content, campaign sites or promotions and quickly adjust them to meet regional and linguistic needs. Content is automatically routed by CQ5 to Translations.com's GlobalLink for immediate translation and localization for an optimized site experience. In-country marketing managers can review, edit and approve any localized copy in CQ5, providing a simple, seamless and efficient process for accelerating the release of new global campaigns.
"Driving online brand awareness and demand in new geographies requires tailoring your site and campaigns to the local market," said Kevin Cochrane, chief marketing officer of Day Software. "Marketers need to not only ensure their global web presences and campaigns are offered in appropriate languages, but also that the entire online experience is tailored to the unique requirements of any local market. With both CQ5 and Translations.com GlobalLink, online marketers now have a best-in-class solution for efficiently managing the globalization process."
"This seamless integration makes it easy for marketers to support global growth and deliver targeted sites and campaigns for new international markets," said Tim Coughlin, vice president of marketing and business development at Translations.com. "With the pre-built integration now available for download from PackageShare, marketers can accelerate time-to-market for their new global marketing and campaign efforts."
