The Beebox Connector for SDL Tridion and SDL Web makes translating content an efficient and user-friendly process. The connector lets you filter and select content for translation, send content to your translation team or provider, receive finished translations back and have SDL sites updated with a click.

Features

Translation capabilities:

  • Any pages.

  • Any number of target languages.

  • Any number of sites within an SDL Tridion instance.

  • Absolutely no manual export or import of translation files required. All jobs are completed using web services.

  • Does not interfere with existing translation and publication workflows.

  • Isolates the HTML markup to protect against unintentional tampering.

  • Connects to your preferred translation service providers, in-house teams, or TMS.

  • Easy tracking of running translation requests.

  • Automatically insert completed translations back into the right places.


Translation review and editing:

  • Preview and approve translations prior to publishing updated content.


Translation cost optimization:

  • It automatically identifies if a sentence or paragraph has been translated in the past. The system automatically reuses the past translations and does not send that content again to your translation provider.

  • Automatically identifies repeating sentences and paragraphs in new content and sends these only once for translation. This may lead to a translation volume reduction of 20% or more. Your translation provider receives unique content only (option).

  • If your site has already been translated, you can have your existing translations aligned and submitted to your translation team for approval for future use.

Compatibility

  • Works with SDL Tridion 2013 SP1, SDL Web 8, SDL Web 8.5, SDL Web 9.0 for later versions please ask

  • Automatically updates/create target pages.

  • Automatically increments page version numbers when updating translations.

  • Supports high volume sites of hundreds of megabytes or more.

Implementation

The Connector is two components: A Windows service that connects with the SDL Tridion API and a plugin to Tridion that adds a user interface for selecting content and managing translations.

The Tridion Connector for SDL Tridion / SDL Web is an off-the-shelf product.
