Basis Of Accounting Policy [Policy Text Block]
Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2016 and for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, included herein have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is the opinion of management that all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of financial results are reflected in the financial statements for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 was derived from the audited condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 are not indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and acquired entities since their respective dates of acquisition. All significant inter-company amounts were eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Reclassifications
 
The Company reclassified amounts representing product development previously included in the caption “general and administrative expenses” in the comparative statement of operations presentation as a separate line item to conform to the current year presentation.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]
Foreign Currency
 
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments, along with any related tax effects, are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, a component of stockholders’ equity. Translation adjustments are reclassified to earnings upon the sale or substantial liquidation of investments in foreign operations. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average month-end exchange rates during the year. Gains and losses related to transactions in a currency other than the functional currency, including operations outside the U.S. where the functional currency is the U.S. dollar, are reported net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, depending on the nature of the activity.
Use Of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring use of estimates and judgment relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable valuation reserves, ability to realize intangible assets and goodwill, ability to realize deferred income tax assets, fair value of certain financial instruments and the evaluation of contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies
 
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the first nine months of 2016 from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the SEC on March 15, 2016.
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Accounting Standards Update
 
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which amended certain existing illustrative examples and adding additional illustrative examples to assist in the application of the guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The effective date and transition of these amendments is the same as the effective date and transition of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The new standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-08 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method, adoption date, or determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
 
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Part 1), which included amendments to: 1) remove the requirement to defer recognition of excess tax benefits until such deduction results in a reduction in tax expense, 2) exclude excess tax benefits when applying the treasury stock method to compute diluted earnings per share, 3) clarify that excess tax benefits should be classified within the operating section of the statement of cash flows, and 4) estimation of forfeitures when calculating compensation cost. The new standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The standard should be applied on a retrospective basis as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented and presented as a change in accounting principle with the cumulative effect on retained earnings and other components of equity disclosed. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method, adoption date, or determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
 
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). The new guidance is intended to reduce the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The core principle of the ASU requires the classification of eight specific cash flow issues identified under ASC 230 to be presented as either financing, investing or operating, or some combination thereof, depending upon the nature of the issue. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. However, early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to use a retrospective transition approach for all of the issues identified to each period presented. We are currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
 
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Part 2), which included amendments to clarify statutory tax withholding requirements, classification of such taxes when paid by the employer and simplification of certain disclosures for privately-held companies. The new standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The standard should be applied on a retrospective basis as of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented and presented as a change in accounting principle with the cumulative effect on retained earnings and other components of equity disclosed. The Company has elected to adopt this ASU ahead of the effective date as permitted. The early adoption of this ASU will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures as the Company’s existing practices are similar to those included in this ASU.
