TermStar: Introduction

What is Termstar?
From the translator's point of view, TermStar is the tool for managing electronic dictionaries, and creating personal terminology archives. TermStar is a very adaptable solution: it can be used on a standalone computer, on a company database server, such as Oracle, Sybase or MS-SQL or on a web server. You can therefore handle anything from a small bilingual dictionary for one project, to a dictionary holding a million terms in 25 languages.
For a company or public body, TermStar provides professional terminology management so that all staff use terminology consistently in all languages.
Using its associated tool, WebTerm, approved terminology can be published on the Intranet or Internet with access available from anywhere.
