Latest Social Business Software Update Breaks through Language Barriers to Improve Collaboration

Igloo Software, the leading provider of social business software in the cloud, today announced the next-generation version of their web-based collaboration suite, highlighted by full support for multilingual translation. The move breaks the language barrier by enabling teams to communicate and collaborate in the language of their choice.

"The prospect of global expansion used to be a daunting process for small and midsized companies," said Dan Latendre, CEO of Igloo Software.

"The web has changed that, not just from a marketing perspective, but also operationally. With our latest release, we've eliminated one of the most significant barriers to collaboration, making it easier to work together regardless of location, time zone and now language."

Worldwide collaboration can only work in a multilingual network, and that's why Igloo now crosses international barriers with ease.

Upon login, users can set their default language preference. As they collaborate with peers in different countries, a tabbed view enables instant and verified translations of all content.

Igloo is currently available in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese, and a number of customers have already launched non-English communities.
