COPA-DATA Reaches New Global Markets Faster with SDL

How SDL helped COPA-DATA deliver high-quality multilingual documentation and marketing messages

Developing innovative engineering solutions has enabled COPA-DATA to grow significantly over the past 20 years. However the company realized that its expansion goals could only be achieved by delivering corporate information (such as high-quality documentation and strong marketing messages) in local languages. However, COPA-DATA was faced with an enormous resource issue, as it is a medium-sized company with limited resources. Additionally, due to increasing text volumes, complexity and the growing amount of required languages, its existing translation processes were beginning to break down under the pressure.
