8. Translation Memory
Leveraging the power of the global standard in translation memory:
TRADOS TM
Advantages of using TM
Using TM on high-volume jobs, we have seen amazing results:
Speed – Turnaround time is cut in half, when comparing with orders we'd
handled in the past.
Quality - We found a 40% improvement over the earlier software, i.e.
fewer cases of variableness to correct, better terminology referencing, etc.
Cost-effectiveness - Naturally we have been able to reduce costs on
translation jobs with considerable enhancement in efficiency and quality, which is
made possible by using TM Server.
