Berlin, January 29, 2014 – New year starts with the release of Version 5.6 of Plunet’s business and translation management system. The latest version features further developments of the system’s key project and business management functionalities. Professional translation agencies and language services using Plunet 5.6 will have a management software at their fingertips that offers the best possible support for the industry’s unique requirements.
Systematic Project Management in Plunet 5.6: Defining Master and Sub-Projects
The latest Plunet version allows the creation of a structured hierarchy with translation master projects and associated sub-projects. Translation agencies and language services are often faced with the challenge of having to create hierarchical structures for specific projects. The methodologies used in the industry can now be comprehensively and clearly mapped in Plunet 5.6. An order can be created in Plunet as a master project with the option to add any number of sub-projects: possible sub-projects could be associated orders, requests, or quotes. But that’s not all: the newly introduced hierarchy option can be of particular interest for agencies or translation departments working to a budget. In the new version, budgets are no longer assigned to individual orders only – but to master projects and their associated sub-projects instead. The new functionality furthermore generates automated warning messages when budget limits are exceeded, offers clearly definable budget entry and editing rights, and a history log for more security and traceability.

- common interface set for release in spring 2014 -
Berlin/London, November 2013 – Plunet and XTM International have signed a technology partnership agreement to development a dynamic interface between Plunet BusinessManager and XTM.
Plunet BusinessManager is a leading business and translation management system for translation agencies and language service providers of businesses and institutions. One of Plunet’s main strengths is its superior flexibility and interoperability with other technologies.
XTM is a fully featured web-based CAT tool, used globally by many translators, LSPs and enterprises. The centrally stored TM and terminology interact dynamically with the translator workbench to create a truly collaborative environment for translation.
The new interface developed by Plunet will allow highly efficient interoperability between the two systems. The integration of Plunet BusinessManager and XTM will facilitate the centralized controlling and processing of business and translation processes via the Plunet platform. The integrated Plunet-XTM workflows will result in shorter project completion times and increased productivity at much higher quality by way of systematic automation, standardization, and interlocking of business and production processes. Detailed information on the functionality scope of the envisaged integration will be announced in coming months, and will be provided on request. Read More...

memoQfest USA a Major Success Among Participants
02/03/13 06:33 Archived in: Press Releases
Kilgray Translation Technologies held its first ever American user conference on January 31 - February 2, 2013 in San Antonio, Texas. As with the highly successful memoQfest conferences that have been held in Europe for several years, the level of interaction among participants exceeded Kilgray’s expectations and contributed to the success of the event.
“memoQfest was probably the best investment US Translation Company has made in TM technology since purchasing memoQ”, said Claudia Hernandez from US Translation Company. The conference - just like its well-established European counterpart - started with an open account of where Kilgray stands and an update on their technology. Companies like XTRF, Plunet, Easyling, GlobalMe and Asia Online presented their integrations with memoQ. Besides presentations by industry leaders on various topics like business innovation, machine translation or technology deployment, the conference also had many interactive sessions. Of particular interest were the huddles, where teams of 8-15 participants discussed specific issues - terminology, system administration aspects, game localization, feature requests - in the hotel lobby with a Kilgray representative. “Really wonderful to learn who you are, what you are doing, and why you are doing it! The presentations were excellent and I would rather attend your future conferences than most other conferences.”, added David L. Shelton from Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories.
Every participant who answered the evaluation sheet was satisfied with the event, and they were particularly impressed with the organization and the networking possibilities. “memoQfest was a great opportunity to meet with other users and learn about features that can improve efficiency”, said Tamara Kislak from Venga Corporation.
The conference was sponsored by technology vendors Easyling, Plunet, and XTRF and by the translation company STP Nordic. Kilgray has plans to organize memoQfest USA again in 2014.
About Kilgray
Kilgray Translation Technologies is the fastest growing technology provider in the translation industry. According to Deloitte’s Fast 500 list, Kilgray was the 222nd fastest growing technology company in Europe and the Middle-East in 2012.
All products of Kilgray - memoQ, memoQ server, qTerm and memoQWebTrans - facilitate, accelerate and optimize the entire translation process. The networked translation suites of Kilgray are team-oriented and designed for the use of small translation teams as well as large enterprises.
