Unicode support

Does CommitCRM support unicode?

[Support Team]

Nope! Thought it does support storing data in many different languages. What language do you want to use?

I am trying to store languages in Chinese and Japanese. After saving note in such languages, CommitCRM will display "??" if I reopen the note. I am using Windows 10 Pro and have no problem display UTF-8 or unicode character. Is there a way have CommitCRM to support UTF-8 encoding?

Thanks!

Thank you for asking. While you can adjust and rename some of its field labels to other languages rather than only English, languages such as Chinese and Japanese are not supported and cannot be stored in RangerMSP at this time. Thank you for asking.

Based on the links below, it seems Advantage Database Server does support Unicode. I am wondering if RangerMSP enable this feature in the upcoming updates.

Thank you for asking and for sharing the links, and indeed, there's no database limitation here.

Supporting Unicode is on our list. For what it is worth, demand for this is somewhat low when compared to other requests, nevertheless it's on our list and will be considered. Thanks!
