Documentum announced the availability of new Language Packs, which simplify and accelerate concurrent implementation of localized Documentum products in many languages. Most enterprise software solutions require phased deployments, as localized product releases are often delivered long after the original language release is available. Now, with the Language Packs available with the Documentum 5 ECM platform, client user interfaces and documentation can be simultaneously produced and delivered in seven languages — English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese and Korean. The Language Packs enable global organizations to deploy Documentum — based solutions in multiple, localized versions at the same time. To accommodate customer requirements for languages other than the seven that Documentum currently offers, the company has launched a new Partner Localization Program. Two partners have committed to delivering localized Documentum products. DELT ICT SERVICES BV, based in the Netherlands, has started providing Dutch versions of the Documentum products, and DocuSoft Corporation, headquartered in Tianjin, China, will provide simplified and traditional Chinese versions later this year. www.documentum.com/products/platform/globalization/index.htm
