Localization is Decisive in the Region
As the Middle East region and the Gulf in particular gear up to adopt advanced IT, ERP and eBusiness solutions, one of the decisive issues that influence top management decisions in selecting a platform is its availability in the local language, since Arabic and Farsi are the formal languages of communication in their countries, particularly in the government sector.
Many organizations in the region have a firm rule that their IT systems must be localized into Arabic and Farsi. Hence, IT vendors realize that it is a good investment to have their systems localized and ready to compete in this market.

Experience in Creating and Translating Arabic & Farsi Systems
Having started our business in the Middle East and focused on providing technology solutions for the Arab market, we have gained a lot of experience in the issues that relate to dealing with the Arabic & Farsi languages in those systems, both from the technological and the linguistic points of view.
We have learned many valuable lessons in the areas of Arabic & Farsi information architecture and Interface design.
As a result of this experience, providing localization service for international IT companies became a strategic business direction for iHorizons. In addition to developing localized systems and user interfaces, many of our projects involve creating bilingual systems and websites to cater for the needs of many organizations in the area.
Through those projects, we come across interesting issues and challenges regarding bilingual systems, which enrich our experience in the field. Issues involved in such projects include terminology, usability and cultural considerations.
