MercuryGate Expands Operations to Europe
Cary, NC – March 25, 2011 – MercuryGate International Inc., a market leader in Transportation Management Software (TMS), announced the opening of an office in the United Kingdom to support the demand for TMS in Europe. The market expansion into Europe allows for organic growth of their TMS solution that has been deployed in over 150 enterprises in North America including 25 of the top 100 logistics providers.
MercuryGate's web-native TMS has a robust international footprint. "From multi-currency to unlimited language support, our TMS makes it possible to deploy anywhere in the world," said Monica Wooden, MercuryGate CEO. "We've always had the ability to plan and execute complex cross-border, multi-leg and multi-modal shipments. Users can interact with the application in the language of their choice. The time is right to expand the use of our TMS throughout the European market."
MercuryGate enables all the languages supported by the UTF-8 code set. This includes all European languages. Customers can configure the interface and documents in different languages for each business unit, role, or location. Localization is easily extended to personalization of the interface by allowing application administrators to specify different terms for screen labels, dropdowns and other domain lists.
Thierry Moreno, Managing Director of N.V. Log S.A. in Geneva, Switzerland whose company purchased MercuryGate's TMS, said, "Europe has many regionalized TMS product offerings. My company was looking for a world class tool to meet the needs of European countries and beyond. MercuryGate was a logical choice because of its on-demand deployment and extensive features for their service provider customers."
MercuryGate�s European office is located at 12 Castle Hill House, Windsor, SL4 1PD United Kingdom. The office telephone number is +44 1753 839322.
