Multi-language support for our global user community
Many TrendMiner customers operate in multiple countries, with users who prefer to use applications in their local language. Besides English, TrendMiner 2020.R2 makes the full application available in: German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Mandarin and Simplified Chinese. The language the user sees is determined by the language setting of their web browser.
Rob Azevedo, Product Manager at TrendMiner added: “A common saying in product development is: ‘If your customers love your app and what it does, they’ll love it twice as much in their own language.’ We believe that this also applies for our self-service industrial analytics application that is intended to accelerate the democratization of analytics within the process manufacturing industries.”
