Personal Translator 14 Intranet

Many good reasons to choose Personal Translator 14 Intranet

1. Boosted functionality:
   Personal Translator 14 Intranet contains 25 user licenses that are allocated in Concurrent User Licensing. In addition, 25,000 text blocks of Business English are available to each license, in order to revamp the business correspondence.


2. Minimum administration effort:
   Since Personal Translator 14 Intranet is purely browser-based, no client installation is necessary.


3. Scaleable solution:
   translation assignments can be flexibly distributed for a better workload distribution.


4. Smooth operations:
   services largely ensure maintenance-free operation.


5. Superior translation quality:
   The innovative SmartTranslation technology of Personal Translator ensures reliable translation of business correspondence and challenging technical texts.


6. Consistent company terminology:
   The corporate language is also part of the corporate identity. It therefore goes without saying that the comprehensive dictionaries (3.8 million entries upon delivery) can be expanded with company-specific terminology.


7. Central administration and maintenance of dictionaries:
   When delivered, the dictionaries contain 3.8 million entries, explanatory sample sentences and definitions. Thanks to centrally managed dictionaries and translation memories, company-specific terminology only has to be entered once to be available to all employees.


8. High data security:
   In contrast to the online translators, your Personal Translator in the Intranet does not represent a security risk. Especially in the case of sensitive company data, you should not risk revealing it to an imponderable public via unsecured Internet connections.


9. Great for saving time:
   A study by the Fraunhofer Institute has found that using the Personal Translator can help save over 40% time.

The functions of Personal Translator 14 Intranet in detail

General advantages for the Group

Naturally, Personal Translator 14 Intranet also uses the outstanding Smart Translation™ technology. 25 user licenses are included in the basic package. When buyers compare similar single user versions, such as Personal Translator Professional, Personal Translator Intranet offers a decisive cost reducing package with all the advantages of a central, server-based group solution.

High Return On Investment (ROI)

Given the possible savings with Personal Translator, the purchase costs are amortized in a very short time and Personal Translator Intranet can show a high Return on Investment. It is an excellent choice for companies who are looking to save time and money, reduce the workload of their employees and increase productivity. For more information, read our user reports from Siemens AG and Textron Verbindungstechnik GmbH & Co. OHG, companies that have successfully used Personal Translator Intranet for many years.

Advantages for administrators

Server-based translation: It couldn’t be easier!

No installation and administration time and costs on the client. The translation and look-up functions can be accessed via any browser, without requiring additional programs or plug-ins. Hence, Personal Translator Intranet is independent of web server platforms, as far as the software (e.g., Apache, Microsoft IIS) and the operating systems (Windows or Linux) are concerned.

Integrate your own dictionaries

The dictionaries provided with Personal Translator Intranet are exceptionally comprehensive, with up to a million entries per language pair. However, now it is also possible to load your own dictionaries. This occurs centrally on the server for all users. We also take pleasure in providing you with a tailor-made dictionary from your terminological resources. Please feel free to contact us.

Easy configuration of the system

Thanks to its distribution over multiple components and the use of standardized interfaces, the architecture of Personal Translator 14 Intranet makes it highly flexible and efficient to use. In addition, the user interface can be very simply adapted and localized to different needs and to site-specific corporate identity.

Efficient request administration

Personal Translator Intranet is scaleable: depending on the intensity of use, requests can be flexibly distributed for better load sharing, by means of round robin procedures on different translation engines.

Secure and stable

Should there be a failure of the server, the translation engines are automatically restarted. Thus, the configuration is very stable.

Translation statistics

All translation orders of the whole configuration are brought together in central statistics and are evaluated. These show when, from whom and how many translations have been carried out and which language direction was involved. To improve administration, suitable records are provided in reports. And so you can always see what's happening!

Specific optimization
The statistical evaluation of the searches also lists unknown words, i.e. words not included in the dictionary. Language is a living thing. With constant new coinages, let's think only of the "word of the year". With the help of the statistics you can expand your dictionaries specifically for your business.

The license model

As for licensing, the advantageous Concurrent Licensing Model is supported, i.e. the number of simultaneous accesses to the system per language pair is decisive. The basic package contains 25 licenses.

Possible extensions of web services

Even more to choose from: if you are interested in an API for the integration of the PT Intranet in your own applications, please contact us. We have a solution for everything!

Advantages for the user

Data security

Do you know who you can trust with your data, if you allow the translation to be done using a web service? The invaluable advantage in the translation of sensitive and protected data with Personal Translator Intranet is that it is safe from unauthorized access within the company's own Intranet. Every piece of information leaving the company Intranet constitutes an imponderable security risk.

Global communication

Personal Translator Intranet is available in 7 language pairs. They can be combined easily.

A sophisticated translation solution!

Personal Translator is an intelligent translation solution. Intelligent new features such as SmartAnalyse™ for the translation of long and complex sentences and, above all, SmartCorrect™ provide optimum translation results with the highest possible level of operating convenience.

Nboody is perflect?! Error correction with SmartCorrect™

Typos and spelling mistakes can very easily worm their way into a text and cause massive damage to the translation. The new function SmartCorrect ™ is more than just a spell check: for example, it recognizes that "tretmnedous tpyig" actually means "tremendous typing", and automatically corrects it before translation takes place. Nboody is perflect?! As if!

Neural transfer in the event of terms with more than one meaning

Personal Translator's sophisticated, hybrid process combines rule-based translation technology with neural transfer techniques (patent pending). Your benefits: a clear improvement of translation capacity in the event of ambiguous words, blurred expressions, proper names and incomplete sentences. Considerably reducing the effort needed for manual editing!

Translate flexibly

Whether texts, web pages or e-mails: the browser-based interface of Personal Translator Intranet clearly offers the right option for every purpose. Ideal for your e-mail correspondence, commercial letters, and memos, as well as for the translation of whole web pages. And always with the innovative SmartTranslation™ Technology.

Finely adjustable settings: Automatic or manual

In many languages, there are meaningful proper names that should never be translated. Herr Kohl ("Cabbage") would have refused to put up with this translation of his name! Personal Translator's intelligent proper name recognizer takes remedial action to prevent such errors from happening. Also, the recognition of subjects is vital for a good translation – in the end, it is important to know whether “Mutter” is used in a general or technical sense. You can carry out every recognition automatically or manually – as you like.
Example:
    Die Mutter sorgt für ihre Kinder. -> The mother looks after her children.
    Du musst die Mutter mit dem Schraubenschlüssel festziehen. -> You must tighten the nut with the spanner.

SmartMemory™: Revised sentences in the memory

The translation memory function offers a practical database of all completed translations. If you have the same sentence again, the saved final version of the translation is used automatically: This saves time and trouble! The Personal Translator’s translation memory is able to recognize proper names, locations and dates, and excludes these from the search terms when looking for a match, thus significantly increasing the likelihood of finding a corresponding sentence. Data is also easily exchanged with TRADOS® and other professional translation memory programs. If required, we also provide you with a tailor-made translation memory on the basis of your text resources. Interested? Please contact us!
