ComputerBild has awarded PROMT

St. Petersburg, – PROMT (www.e-promt.com) has won 2 prestigious awards of the largest European computer magazine – ComputerBild. The @promt Personal 7.5 ‘Quattro’ translation software has been recognized as the best translation system out of the competition, and the PROMT online translator at the corporate German site www.promt.de – as the best online translation service.

This is not the first time PROMT wins the competition tests carried out by ComputerBild. This time the tests were made between the four leading software titles and four online translation services . Once again, the technological advantages of PROMT products made @promt Personal 7.5 ‘Quattro’ leave all competitors behind: it was just PROMT, which could successfully cope with the difficult tasks and win the competition in both categories.

@promt Personal 7.5 quattro has proved again the strong advantage of PROMT translation software over other machine translation systems. The software provides translations for six language directions: English-German-English, Spain-German-Spain and French-German-French. The translation system is a vital instrument for home and business users as it includes not just PROMT text editor but also a large variety of useful tools. A special application available integrates translation functions into Microsoft Word and Microsoft Outlook and enables users to translate Word documents and e-mails “on-the-fly” without having to switch between applications.

Besides, @promt Personal 7.5 ‘Quattro’ can translate web pages preserving initial formatting (picture locations, links etc.) as well as graphics files using PDF pre-conversion technology. The product also contains a plug-in to translate ICQ messages giving its users an opportunity to overcome language barriers while chatting to foreign friends and colleagues. The application is localized for Germany and is only distributed in European countries.

According to the tests, PROMT Online-Translator became the winner among the free online translation services. The free online translation service provided by PROMT at www.promt.de ; www.online-translator.com ; www.promt.fr and www.translate.ru is extremely popular among Internet users. The number of daily PROMT Online-Translator users is more than 120 000 and grows constantly. No surprise, however – virtually any PC user now needs translation of various texts, whereas the PROMT technology provides a quick and most qualitative solution for this task.

“We are happy to obtain two awards at once from such a prestigious edition as ComputerBild. Especially we are proud by the fact that PROMT translation systems are constantly winning the awards of different independent tests in Germany, France, Russia and other countries. @promt systems were enthusiastically met by German public and magazine testers when introduced in late 2003. We are sure the excellent technology behind the @promt software and our best efforts to promote it would guarantee many more awards and prizes in the future” – said Igor Jourist, the Director of PROMT GmbH – PROMT Germany.
