For the Client, future projects can be made less expensive while the translation company saves time on projects and can increase volume.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How It Works<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Without getting too technical, this specialized software targets \u201csegments\u201d of words or phrases or sentences and stores them for later use. It stores the source text and the target language in pairs that are known as \u201ctranslation units\u201d in our industry.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Primary Benefits<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Yet not all types of translations can truly benefit from the use of memories. The software is most suited for translating technical documents. Industries needing translations of a technical sort inevitably come with their own specific terminologies and verbiage. Having memories ready ensures consistency between projects and within large projects. Essentially the translator only has to translate a term once.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This speeds up the process and reduces costs. Many manuals, for instance, have redundant \u201cstandard\u201d text that appears throughout. This is translated once and added as the project moves along where it appears.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You the Client may not see these savings initially but will surely see them on subsequent projects involving the same subject matter.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Drawbacks<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">As I mentioned before, Translation Memory is best suited for <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.epictranslations.com\">technical translation<\/a> where the content is standardized and straightforward using industry-specific verbiage. In less technical translations, TM is less effective because our translation pros are working to get the context of the message correct, not the component sentences (translation units). Basically this boils down to it not being the most effective tool for localization of your material.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Present TM managers do not support ALL file types, creating delivery issues. TM software can also be expensive (up to $2500) and learning how to use them is time-consuming. For the Translation Company and translators, managing memory content is a manual task and upkeep can become hard to keep up with keeping the manager up to date during busy months. Also, quality control becomes even more of an issue and editing all-important. Why? If a TM gets through the editing process and it is incorrect or partial, then the error will be perpetuated in later projects.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Putting It All Together<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">While the benefits of using T Memories are very clear, they are not the end-all without limitations. Companies that are in need of translations that aren\u2019t overly technical shouldn\u2019t expect a huge savings over time\u2026or at least not as much as their more <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.epictranslations.com\">technical counterparts<\/a>. Whether memories play you\u2019re your project or not, seeking long-term relationships with a translation company that matches your requirements is still the way to go. Even if you can\u2019t make full use of translation memories, you will still benefit from familiarity, customized service and expedited project management.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Here at <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.epictranslations.com\">Epic Translations<\/a>, we are compatible with several translation memory managers, including Trados. We invite you to try out our services as we continue to establish profitable long-term vendor\/client relationships with forward-thinking companies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Do Translation Memories Mean For Your Business The advent of technologies enabling the
