New-Global Corporation Launches New-Globalsite 4.0
Latest Version of Web-based Software suite for Workflow Automation
NEW YORK, January 10, 2004 / -- New Global Corporation, a leading provider of multilingual communication services and technologies, today announced the newest release of its industry-leading workflow automation software, New-Globalsite 4.0.
New-Globalsite (NGS) 4.0 is affordable and can be rapidly deployed, easily configured and maintained, and scaled to adapt to growing business needs. As a scalable web-based platform, NGS 4.0 is designed to handle even high volume document management and translation needs.
NGS 4.0 is a continuation of the industry leading translation management software that was developed by New-Global, specifically for web-based project management. The new release of the v4.0 product will include newer features that allow for enhanced project management of translations in globally distributed work environments.
The latest release of the NGS product suite will allow global translation agencies, freelance professionals, and other document-intensive organizations to easily manage the workflow of their documentation from any computer over the internet. The technology employed in NGS 4.0 will help these professionals easily take advantage of superior web technologies that were previously attainable only by large enterprises with significant IT budgets.
With NGS 4.0, users will have the ability to automatically generate document translation orders in virtually any file format; input internal reference numbers for instant order tracking; search by document name or status; automatically track order delivery by remote workers; and easily manage accounting and billing over the web.
“The translation industry serves a crucial need in delivering global information to the right user at the right time,” states David Burdelski, CTO of New-Global. “Other organizations, from the Fortune 500 to the Federal government, face the same challenges. By developing a native web application, designed exclusively for web-based work environments, we’ve been able to solve this critical business problem. Now, users from anywhere in the world can work remotely and manage their complex multilingual documentation in an automated and efficient manner, thanks to NGS 4.0.”
Beyond just providing simple features such as document upload and order tracking over the web, NGS 4.0 allows entire teams to work together in a remote environment over the internet.
“With NGS 4.0, a project manager in Berlin can easily work simultaneously with a translator in New York and a team leader in Beijing. NGS 4.0 allows for an unlimited number of users to collaborate on a given project using our web-based workflow tool,” added Burdelski.
Building upon the momentum and interest generated by the release of NGS 3.0, New-Global extended many of the software’s core features. For example, with the new NGS 4.0 release, accounting and billing have been further enhanced to allow freelance individuals to specify their payment options. Also, these individuals can track their payments online, saving them significant time and money. Freelance professionals can automatically generate an invoice for their services, saving them hours each month and ensuring accurate accounting for them as individual business owners.
Harish Armani, chief project lead for the NGS 4.0 development, added, “What makes NGS 4.0 unique is that it actually adds value downstream, to the individual translator. By providing an automated billing and accounting system, free of charge for freelance translators, NGS 4.0 actually saves time for these freelance professionals, and therefore saves them money. Plus, they never lose or forget to bill for a particular project, because it’s fully automated. This ensures that they’ll bill accurately for the projects they’ve delivered. Many of these freelance professionals do not have robust accounting systems, and translation accounting is inefficient, so the feedback from freelancers has been overwhelmingly positive. We’re very happy,” states Armani.
Today, New-Global is already in the R&D phase for NGS 5.0, which promises to be its most significant product development cycle to date. New security features will play an increasingly important role as issues such as privacy and computer viruses become increasingly prevalent. In addition, NGS 5.0 will further enhance the accounting automation, saving individual translators and agencies even more time.
