What are the differences between PointFire's variations and SharePoint's variations?

There are a variety of differences between PointFire's variations and SharePoint's variations. SharePoint variations require the creation of separate sites and the automatic provisioning of alternate variations of your content which needs to be translated and then maintained by a trained staff on the use of those variations. This is not only time consuming, but can be more costly.

PointFire enables your users to work on one site in multiple languages and store your documents and items in the same lists as well as giving you the power to filter that content based on language. Using PointFire variations requires only a rudimentary understanding of SharePoint lists and libraries, whereas SharePoint variations requires much more advanced training.


How can I manage multilingual content in my UI, navigation and images on master pages?

Users can easily manage multilingual HTML elements, text and images using the PointFire SDK, which is essentially server tags that allow you to indicate a segment of HTML code meant for a specific language. PointFire will filter those HTML segments based on language on the fly. It is a very simple solution and requires very little effort to implement.

How can PointFire filter my content so I only see documents or items in my language?

In order for PointFire to filter your content so you only see documents or items in your language, you can add the included "Language Filter Web Part" and connect it will any other list viewing web part to automatically filter a list or library based on language.
