In Brazil's tech and business sectors, 'customize' is often used as an English loanword, particularly in São Paulo's corporate environment. However, 'personalizar' is the more formal and widely understood Portuguese equivalent across all regions. In Portugal, both 'personalizar' and 'adaptar' are accepted, with slight preference for 'adaptar' in operational contexts. The phrase is increasingly common in enterprise software discussions and digital transformation initiatives across Portuguese-speaking countries.
