Aquire Announces Release of OrgPublisher™ 6.1
- Dutch is the latest addition to the product’s six language options -
IRVING, Texas - March 24, 2005 - Aquire, Inc. today announced the availability of OrgPublisher in six languages. The product is available in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. Throughout each release cycle, the company continues to add new language options to meet the rapidly growing international demand. Currently, more than 2,000 customers use OrgPublisher to chart more than six million people in 125 countries. Aquire’s international sales have continued to grow, with a 30 percent increase in 2004. Increases in international market share have contributed to the company’s 11 years of overall growth and profitability.
OrgPublisher™, the industry’s first automated organizational charting tool, employs state-of-the-art technology to address real business issues. Utilizing an organization’s existing human resource data, companies can quickly and automatically generate graphical, interactive org charts containing as little as 100 employees or as many as one million employees. Human resource data can be accessed from virtually any source, including Oracle, PeopleSoft and SAP — even a spreadsheet.
“Our decision to develop products that interface with all ERP systems met with some opposition in the beginning. Even today, many software companies still feel that maintaining just a few key alliances or developing products that support only specific platforms are the keys to success. Aquire’s forward thinking has allowed us to be flexible in our language offerings, international partner strategies and customer acquisitions. I am thankful we will bypass the fate of many companies that will be forced to retrofit products to meet international market demands,” said Lois Melbourne, chief executive officer of Aquire.
