AbroadLink adquires MemoQ Server technology for the online collaboration of translation teams
AbroadLink Translation Services for Companies, true to its philosophy, adquires MemoQ Server technology in order to offer translation services including the online collaboration of translation teams in real time
True to the company's philosophy of remaining at the cutting edge of linguistic technology, management at AbroadLink Translation Services for Companies decided to invest in the Kilgray technology, MemoQ Server. Thanks to this technology AbroadLink's translation services will be able to adapt to the needs of large accounts, where it is sometimes necessary to translate a high volume of words in a limited time. MemoQ Server is a collaboration platform for translation teams, allowing them to share databases including translations done by all members of the team in real time, as well as the publication of glossaries. The creation of client or project boards is also possible, as well as a communication channel with group chat between the different members of the translation project, including the project manager.
Although there are several technologies in the market offering this solution, a pre-purchase study carried out by AbroadLink considered that the price-performance ratio of this tool is far superior to its competitors. As a translation company knowledgeable in the translation technology market, while making the decision AbroadLink also valued the advances experienced by MemoQ since it first appeared on the market. On a technological level, MemoQ Server stood out for its processing capacity and speed compared to SDL technology. Nevertheless, the company will continue to rely on SDL technology for specific projects.
According to Josh Gambín, managing director of AbroadLink Translation Services for Companies: "This translation technology allows us to offer higher quality services, thanks to the real-time synchronization of the work of several translators involved in a translation project. We can also offer more competitive prices, as real-time synchronization means that we can use the translations, as well as the terminology research, of one translator so that they appear in the part of another of the team's translators".
