The Beebox Connector for SDL Tridion and SDL Web 8 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 inserts completed translations back into the right places.

Translation review and editing:

• Preview and approve translations prior to publishing updated content.

Translation cost optimization:

• 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 and , SDL Web 8, SDL Web 8.5, for later versions please ask
• Automatically updates/creates target pages.
• Automatically increments page version numbers when updating translations.
• Supports high volume sites of hundreds of megabytes or more.
