More than 250,000 websites are created daily. Digital content multiplies, and with it, the need to publish, translate, update, and translate again. Fortunately, translation management technology offers multiple integrations with content management systems to make this task easier.
Suppose you are redesigning your e-commerce platform and need it translated into 9 languages in order to relaunch it in 9 markets. After publishing, you will need to update the catalogs and product descriptions weekly. Mission impossible? No.
Now you can automatically integrate the content creation and content translation processes in the same environment while maintaining the highest quality. Translation Management Systems (TMS) such as memoQ integrate with a wide variety of Content Management Systems (CMS), making it possible to handle projects of any format and volume seamlessly.
The technology that allows content creation and updating of multiple languages
Without the help of a comprehensive solution, achieving efficient content workflow in multiple languages can be challenging.
Translating and keeping your brand’s content updated in several languages means having a team of expert translators in the target languages who are capable of operating in record time and without making mistakes. A complex task, especially when working with large volumes of content. If this is your case, you need to automate the translation workflow to increase efficiency and predictability, prevent errors, and save time and costs.
Benefits of integrating your content management system (CMS) with our translation management system (TMS)
The short answer is that you will save time and money in the long run, and you will be able to increase the quality and efficiency of your content production and translation process. Let us explain why.
If your company is already using a CMS, you already know the advantages of having all of your content available in one place. You are just one step away from reaching the next level: using a translation connector integrated into your CMS system to get, in a much more efficient way, all the content translated into the languages you need.
The connectors that integrate CMS and TMS are applications that make it possible to exchange data between the multilingual content management system and the tools used for translation. In other words, it is a software that enables the exchange of content in real time between two systems without the mediation of humans.
CMS and TMS integration: the perfect team
The great advantage of this connection technology is that it replaces a large number of manual tasks that slow down the process and make it inefficient. During the project preparation stage, the translation connectors get the content ready to be localized and translated in record time.
As expected, this is truly revolutionary for multilingual businesses. The CMS-TMS integration works in perfect tandem for several reasons:
- It speeds up the localization process of otherwise scattered content.
- It eliminates repetitive and mechanical work for writers and translators so that they can focus exclusively on the creative tasks of content creation and translation.
- It prevents the loss of data, which often goes astray during chaotic collection processes that use manually managed files.
- It protects data and reduces the risk of sensitive information leaks by removing the need to send content manually.
- It boosts productivity, facilitating increasingly efficient workflows.
- It reduces the number of human errors, which are common in manual processes.
For all these reasons, translation connectors are the key to streamlining such a critical process as effectively organizing your brand’s content for a quality translation.
