Following the success of last year’s ELEVATE, which drew over 4,000 attendees, we invite translation professionals worldwide to join us in March for our latest instalment. You will come away with inspiration for new ways of working, lots of practical advice and tips, and ideas to build on your success and growth. To secure your free place, register here. 

We have also released our latest round of enhancements to the Trados platform. Here are just a few of our latest key innovations: 

Optimized vendor management with significant functionality enhancements 

We have further improved our vendor management user experience by introducing a new area for vendors. It comes with an abundance of functionality to ensure Vendor Project Managers have access to the information needed to keep their projects running smoothly and on track, including: 

• A list of orders connected with a vendor, even if the user is not the assigned Vendor Project Manager for that order 
• Viewing additional information like status, due date and the quote for ongoing or completed tasks by clicking on a project 
• The option to complete, reclaim or reassign tasks 

Enhanced translation collaboration with considerable customer portal updates 

Our customer portal is designed to streamline the translation project management process, providing a simple and efficient platform for requestors to create, track and retrieve their projects. To improve this experience further, we have introduced several new updates to the customer portal: 

• A new side panel for quick access to extra project details 
• Real-time update notification with a visual indicator 
• Improved project visibility through a new phase, “In Finalization” 
• Support for profile pictures in project conversations 

Greater accessibility and productivity with online dictation

There have been significant refinements to the online editor over the last few months.  

Notably, we have introduced a dictation feature that, in addition to enabling you to dictate text, allows you to perform over 130 commands such as using your voice to confirm segments. Not only does this feature improve productivity and add to the rich capabilities available within the online editor, it also makes the Trados platform more accessible for visually impaired users. 

We hope you find this information useful, and we look forward to bringing you our next quarterly round-up in April!
