ACCENT CORPORATION - Reliable Translation, Interpreting & Localization Services

Multilingual systems without touching your source code

Conventional multilingualization means extracting text strings from source code, translating them, putting them back into the code, and then retesting the entire system for every language. ACCENT’s approach builds a translation dictionary from the text displayed on screen and switches languages at display time. Because the original system is left untouched, both lead time and cost are greatly reduced.

How it compares

* Lead time and cost depend on the number of screens and the scope.

Key features

• Translated by professional translators, not machine translation. Because the dictionary is prepared in advance, there are no mistranslations or display delays
• No access to source code or databases needed. The solution runs in your own environment, so your data never leaves your company
• Works with SSL and with pages whose content changes dynamically
• Glossaries and translation memory keep terminology consistent across screens and versions
• When features or screens change, only the new text needs translating

Example systems

• In-house web applications, SaaS and packaged software
• E-commerce sites, member portals and online banking
• Attendance, HR and payroll systems and intranet portals
• Knowledge and document management systems
