June 29, 2010 at 11:09 Questions to Alexander Zudin (Paragon Software)
In Russia, Paragon Software is best known for system utilities: Paragon Partition Manager, Paragon Drive Backup Paragon Hard Disk Manager, Volume Snapshot (an alternative to Apple Time Machine).
But this company has a division that develops software for mobile devices: SlovoEd dictionaries, PenReader handwriting recognition softwareetc. These developments are most popular in the West, where Paragon Software is one of the leaders in the market, and in our country it is probably the largest developer of software for smartphones in general. It is difficult to find a company that sells so much software for Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, Palm OS, Windows Mobile and Symbian OS, and indeed in this business for 15 years. Back in 1996, they completely Russified Newton OS, in 2004 they made handwritten input on the Microsoft Tablet PC, now they are rolling out the Apple iPad.
Alexander Zudin - Head of Intelligent Mobile DevicesParagon Software. Since the foundation of the company by MIPT students in 1994, Alexander has taken part in the development of several hundred software applications for all of the above platforms. In addition to dictionaries and PenReader, these are also games, business applications, travel programs and other utilities.
Of the latest interesting statements by Alexander to the foreign press, there is a skeptical assessment of the functionality of the Google Dictionary, because Paragon makes better dictionaries, although paid.
