LOCALIZATION WORKFLOWS FOR CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT

In today’s digital economy, where continuous delivery/integration is the development norm, meeting the needs of an international audience remains a distinct challenge. Each product evolution demands prompt localization across multiple languages, without causing delays.
Traditionally, localization followed a sequential, waterfall-like approach, with each text string or document treated as a separate project. This method contrasts sharply with the continuous, iterative nature of Agile workflows.

Despite these historical challenges, modern advancements in language technology and Agile project management software have rewritten this narrative. Today, we can flawlessly meld the worlds of code and language, all thanks to our shared lingua franca: API. A unified workflow now incorporates everyone, from coders to translators, facilitating efficient collaboration.

Loquatics’ prime goal is to effortlessly merge the worlds of translation and continuous development. Utilizing your current tools, we can align with your teams to understand requirements and alleviate pain points, crafting a solution that brings everyone on board. This enables localization to become a homegrown part of your Agile workflows, eliminating unnecessary pauses and disruptions.

Your teams remain committed to their vital work of enhancing the product, while Loquatics ensures every localization requirement wraps neatly into these enhancements. Through this synergy, every product update or iteration speaks authentically to your global audience. The goal here isn’t just product localization but also cultivating confidence in you that someone adept in the field is taking care of your complex localization needs so you can focus on delivering exceptional products to your customers.

ADVISORY ON LANGUAGE & CONTENT MANAGEMENT TOOLS​​

In today’s endless ocean of language services and solutions, deciding for the right candidate has become challenging for localization project owners. Despite the numerous choices available, the similarity in features offered by competitors, all promising comprehensive solutions for any localization need, complicates the decision making.

Some software has been around for decades and has undergone significant transformations – transitioning from client-based to cloud-based, introducing internal marketplaces, integrating machine translation, and so on. And although these tools might excel in certain aspects, they may have been less successful in other crucial elements of the process. It is tough to keep track of these developments, and even harder to notice them when under pressure due to impending deadlines that require tooling upgrades.

If a time-consuming trial-and-error process isn’t an option, or if resources are better spent elsewhere, Loquatics is here to assist. With years of experience as a localization manager and engineer, Daniel has navigated a wide array of tools, applying them in different contexts while tackling both common and uncommon roadblocks. This background provides deep insight into the strengths of each tool and, perhaps more importantly, their weeknesses.

Loquatics is not bound to any specific software or service, allowing for recommendations based purely on what your content really needs and what not.
