In October 2015, Mimeo, the world’s leading online printing company, launched Mimeo Digital to provide a content management and distribution platform. Mimeo Digital enables businesses around the world to securely upload, manage and digitally distribute content in any format. Mimeo Digital helps bridge the gap between print and digital without downloading and installing complex software. The easy-to-use, quick-to-setup platform allows users to securely upload files in any file format – from PDF to MOV.
Mimeo serves customers in over 140 countries globally and needed to ensure they could present their content in their customer’s native languages without spending endless developmental time and resources.
对于 Mimeo Digital 的产品副总裁 Jonathan Bartlett 和他的团队来说，本地化方面的问题在于，他们需要一款能够满足四个关键特性的工具。首先，它需要一个能够与现有网站架构集成的自动化翻译工作流程。其次，它的实现方式不应需要进行大量的开发变更和工程工作。
第三，他们需要一个控制面板，将本地化变成一个一站式服务，可以翻译单词、短语和完整字符串，无需使用复杂的翻译文件。最后，他们需要一个翻译管理系统 (TMS)，支持超过 15 种语言的快速周转和实时翻译更新。他们需要的是一个注重速度、效率、质量且零开销的解决方案。
Through Localize, Mimeo Digital was able to launch their new product in 15 different languages, processing over 5,000 words.
Bartlett said, “by grabbing your Javascript code and adding it to our application, I was blown away by how quick and easy it was to implement. The user interface was really intuitive and gave me and my entire team the ability to instantly jump on and complete the translation process ourselves. Everything happens so seamlessly and automatically.”
As Mimeo Digital regularly updates their content, a quick turnaround is required to keep everything up to date and ensure that content is consistent across 15 languages as quickly as possible.
Localize continuously detects new content in their source language and ensures that the right team member is notified to move the new content through the translation management system. Bartlett adds “I’ve become hands off now that my team knows how to utilize Localize and is informed in real time of actions we need to take to translate new content. I never have any concerns about the accessibility of our information to customers around the world.”
With Localize, Mimeo Digital was quickly able to set up their platform for a global release in 15 languages, without placing any strain on their valuable internal resources. The Mimeo Digital team was provided with an easy to use translation management system where implementation, translation, and publication of their content could be automated for a quick and immediate release to engage with their customers. Allowing their customers from Europe to Asia to maneuver the Mimeo Dashboard and enhance their user experience in their preferred languages.
