Results
The company now has more than 100 development teams managing translations for over 400 web applications in a centralized, automated, continuous, and development-integrated manner.
This has also led to a significant reduction in costs, the unification of terminology, and a consistent corporate tone of voice in the translations.
This implementation does not include any dedicated translation project managers within the company.
