NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwire) — 02/28/13 — , the cloud-based enterprise translation management company, today announced significant improvements to their flagship Translation Management System (TMS), along with PCI Level 1 and SOC2 security certifications.
The platform enhancements will boost performance, usability, and tracking capabilities for their customers seeking to grow their business globally. Smartling-s compliance to stringent security standards has been officially recognized with Payment Card Industry (PCI) Level 1, the highest level of PCI certification, and Service Organization Control 2 (SOC2) certifications.
“We-re proud to be one of few companies serving the translation management space, and even fewer language services agencies, who have the commitment and discipline to meet the stringent requirements of PCI 1 and SOC2 (formerly known as SAS-70),” said Jack Welde, CEO, Smartling. “These highly regarded security designations allow us to better support our growing roster of Global 2000 and Fortune 500 customers.”
The Smartling Translation Management System (TMS) is the first platform built to manage the entire translation, localization and delivery process in the cloud.

: Smartling continues to invest in workflow management and automation to improve translation efficiency and reduce time to value. Total words translated via the Smartling platform grew by 600% between 2011 and 2012.
Smartling-s platform allows multiple translators and stakeholders to collaborate seamlessly in the cloud. Language Service Providers, key players in the translation process, have an improved dashboard that allows them to manage overall workload, assign work to translators, and keep track of translation progress.
Global marketers are constantly tasked with analyzing the effectiveness of their campaigns and return on investment. Smartling-s new dashboard tracking is a powerful way to see translation statistics in real-time, in a simple-to-read view. Now companies have the intelligence at their fingertips to better understand the performance of localized web and mobile applications.
“We consider Smartling an extension of our development and operations team, which means they are in the trenches with us as we roll out translated content all the time,” said Neil Berkman, President of We Heart It. “Thanks to their platform, the translation process is automated in the cloud, which is fast and efficient and keeps up with our rapid development cycles.”
The Smartling platform is transforming the traditional translation market, which is predominately file-based with manual project management. This means costly, slow and tedious translation and localization, which is unacceptable in today-s agile business climate. Smartling puts the process in the cloud, automates workflows, improves the quality of translations by providing context and visibility, and speeds deployment exponentially — while meeting the quality requirements of the largest global companies and the hottest consumer web and mobile companies.
