Idiom Technologies Lsp Advantage Program Doubles In 2006 And Contributes To Record Customer Growth

Company Also Creates New Platinum Tier within Program to Recognize its Most Collaborative Partners

Waltham, Massachusetts - March 20, 2007 - Idiom® Technologies, Inc. (Idiom), the leading independent provider of scalable software solutions for accelerating and optimizing globalization initiatives, today announced that its LSP Advantage Program doubled during 2006. The growing size and strength of the program contributed to strong 2006 customer growth. Idiom is also today announcing the creation of a new "Platinum Tier" within the LSP Advantage Program.

"We started our LSP Advantage Program eighteen months ago after seeing a tremendous opportunity to fill a void in the market that resulted from market consolidation," said Peter Reynolds, director of the LSP Advantage Program at Idiom Technologies. "We have far exceeded our initial expectations for the program on many dimensions, especially with certain LSPs that have demonstrated they are capable of working with Idiom at a deeper level."

Idiom Technologies new Platinum Tier recognizes those partners that have reached a certain status within the LSP Program, contributing more to the program and showing a greater capacity to help Idiom more rapidly expand its footprint globally and accelerate the adoption of Idiom WorldServer™ as a standard in the translation and localization industry. To reward these exceptional partners, Idiom will jointly design and execute marketing, business development and technology development activities alongside them.

"The LSP Advantage Program is an excellent opportunity to bring together diverse core competencies and create synergies for our clients," said Waldemar Frank, director of business development, LUZ, Inc. "Idiom Technologies and LUZ have collaborated for over five years and continue to deliver value-adding benefits through our combined solutions and services. It is only logical for both partners to take this close collaborative alliance to the next level. LUZ's Platinum member status acknowledges the contribution and value that a leading LSP adds to the success of Idiom Technologies. In turn, LUZ has access to and helps refine a leading Globalization Management technology while retaining its focus on language-centered services and solutions. We are very excited about this extended partnership and the benefits that it provides to clients."

"VistaTEC has always been a fervent user of technology. The use of commercially available tools and in-house developed automation has been a key success factor for us in many of our long term strategic accounts," said Tom Murray, CEO, VistaTEC. "Since joining the Idiom LSP Program in 2006, we have focused much effort on integrating WorldServer into our organization and complementing the core product with our own filters, automated actions and web services interfaces. We are delighted to have this recognized by Idiom and are proud that our customers will also see the accreditation that Idiom has given us."

Idiom Technologies established its LSP Advantage Program as part of its multi-prong strategy to fill the globalization industry vacuum created by vendor consolidation. For its program, Idiom partners with independent LSPs around the world, offering them unique business-building opportunities including a free internal-use license to Idiom WorldServer.

In 2006, Idiom more than doubled its roster of LSP partners, adding companies such as: Applied Languages, INK, Matrix, Lingualinx, hiSoft, Alpha CRC, SynerGlobal, BeyondSoft and Rubric. For a complete list of Idiom LSP partners, visit: http://www.idiominc.com/partners/lsps/
