World’s most trusted computer-assisted
translation tool helps global businesses reduce post-editing and
translate faster
SDL today announced the release of SDL Trados Studio 2017, the
latest version of its market-leading computer-assisted translation
(CAT) tool.
With the rise in content creation, the translation industry
continues to grow – jumping nearly six percent in 2016 to over $40
billion USD, according to the Common Sense Advisory. SDL’s own
research recently revealed that of nearly 3,000 translators
surveyed, 72 percent believe they would lose competitive advantage
without translation productivity tools. SDL recognized this
industry growth and need, delivering SDL Trados Studio CAT
solutions which currently own 70 percent of the market. The launch
of its latest version, SDL Trados Studio 2017, continues to drive
the translation productivity industry forward.
“SDL Trados Studio 2017 is very exciting, I have been waiting
for the integration of fragment matching for many years,” said
Christine Bruckner, Team Lead Technical Services at itl AG and
freelance translator. “The move towards AdaptiveMT is
also very interesting, both from the translator and from the LSP’s
perspective.”
The release of SDL Trados Studio 2017 focuses on translation
memory and machine translation working together to drive the
effectiveness of translation memory. SDL Trados Studio 2017 sees
the introduction of two new technologies to the Studio family. The
first fully-integrated, self-learning machine translation (MT)
engine, SDL AdaptiveMT, learns from the translator so users don’t
have to post-edit twice. Until now, users needed to make the same
edits repeatedly throughout the translation. AdaptiveMT learns from
these edits so they can be re-used again in the future. And with
SDL Trados Studio 2017’s new UpLIFT technology, users can translate
even faster too, getting the ‘best matches’ possible from existing
translation memory. This is possible even without a memory match,
as SDL Trados Studio 2017 automatically provides match options for
fragments of a sentence and offers the ability to repair a ‘fuzzy’
match.
“Translation is no longer something businesses can consider;
it’s paramount for their success on a local and global scale,” said
Massimo Ghislandi, Vice President of Translation Productivity at
SDL. “However, translation alone does not satisfy customer and
business needs. Content must be localized quickly and accurately –
and with SDL Trados Studio 2017, we have revealed the best solution
to achieve this. As a result, organizations can enhance their
ability to communicate with their target audience while boosting
efficiency and productivity for financial gains.”
Considering that translators feel rework is largely due to
terminology inconsistencies, according to the SDL Translation
Technology Insight (TTI) Research, SDL continues to improve
terminology management technology. SDL Trados Studio 2017 will see
a new version of MultiTerm, MultiTerm 2017, which features an
easier to use interface and will ensure users are armed with the
most comprehensive and established terminology management tool on
the market.
Additionally, there will also be a new version of SDL Trados
GroupShare, the server-based collaboration solution, available
following the SDL Trados Studio 2017 launch.
