The Problem
The company’s goal was to create technical documentation, training material and design descriptions with a standardized terminology as a way to ensure a consistent and customer-oriented presentation on the international market.
The Solution
By choosing the Acrolinx platform, the GROB Group went with the market-leading solution. Decisive factors included easy handling, wide functionality as well as fast and professional support from the provider.
Using Acrolinx as a higher-level terminology and knowledge database helps us establish a consistent term base and optimize the way terminology is created and used. – Andreas Zeller, Translator, GROB Group
