Smartling’s comprehensive Translation Connector for Sitecore fully supports translation in Sitecore versions 6.2 and above. The Connector is easily installed with minimal developer support and quickly extends the Sitecore platform with automated capabilities to submit and manage content for translation by any preferred translation vendor.

Automation – Changes to content are detected automatically, and translations are returned to Sitecore when complete. Users can focus on creating new content, and the platform will keep multilingual versions in sync. Efficiency – Translation Memory integration leverages previous translations to boost quality and speed, maintain consistency, all while reducing translation costs. High-quality – Smartling’s unique “in-context” translation interface provides translation resources with full visibility into site design and layout during the entire translation process. Translations are accurate for meaning and format the first time, reducing time consuming edits and fixes to your multilingual content. Real-time visibility – Translation progress data is available directly in the Sitecore interface, eliminating the need to switch between multiple systems to monitor project activity. Smartling empowers businesses to better compete globally by removing complexity, cost and time from the translation process.
