About

The plugin adds a user interface to your AEM site: select and send content to your translation agency or internal team, receive translations and have your AEM site updated automatically. Enjoy a multilingual web site which is always up to date and which does not take you hundreds of manual work steps.

Features

Key features:

• Each AEM OOB component is translatable. Custom components configuration will be required to make them translatable.
• Automatically tracks which content is new or changed.
• Connects to your translation service provider or translation team (direct web link, no manual import/export/emails).
• Add new, changed or other content to the "cart". Checking out the cart sends content for translation.
• Automatically receives translated content and inserts translated content into the right places in AEM.

Keep your existing translations:

• If your site is already translated (fully or partially), existing translations are not lost and sent to the translation team. 
• This ensures that previously translated content won't be retranslated. It's a unique feature that sets us apart from other solutions.

Who translates?

This is your choice! Any translation service provider with a Beebox server can link up with your AEM site.

The plugin web-links to a Beebox server and its API. The Beebox is typically installed at a translation agency. Agencies use so-called translation management systems (TMS) to organize and manage translation work. The Beebox sits in front of a TMS and takes care of shuffling back and forth content between translation teams and your AEM site. This approach is totally transparent and automatic. If you own your own TMS and translation teams you might be interested in running your own Beebox. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need any guidance.
