We’re pretty excited to share the news: project managers, owners, proofreaders, and translators get the updated reports today! They are much easier to use, have a cleaner UI and a few new features. We also reviewed all of your suggestions for improvement of reports and implemented the most requested ones. We believe that you’ll be able to increase your productivity and manage the work on the project better using the updated reports.
What do I get using reports?
- See how the project translation is going
- Estimate and count the translation costs
- Know when new strings were added or deleted
- See how much each translator and proofreader contributed
- Keep up with the major activities and updates in the project
- Share insights with other project members exporting reports in CSV or XLSX files
- And much more!
We’d also like you to know that from now on you can additionally switch between characters with spaces and characters without spaces when counting the text as requested. That should help you be more accurate estimating and counting the amount of work and costs for it.
Updated Reports for Managers and Project Owners
Project Status
Сheck major activities in the project to plan, track progress and get a completion forecast for translations. Project Status report gives you an insight on:
- How many strings should be translated and how many of them are duplicates, visible or hidden from translators
- How many project participants are active and how many new ones joined
- Added and removed files for translation
- How soon the translations might be ready
Cost Estimation
Calculate the approximate translation costs to plan your budget. Cost Estimation report gives you an insight on: The approximate cost of translation and proofreading (you can set a general rate for all languages and add individual rates for some specific languages). The amount of repetitions or internal matches and current or possible TM matches that can be used to reduce the cost of translations.
Translation Costs
Calculate the real translation costs to pay your translators and proofreaders fairly. Translation Costs report gives you an insight on:
- General costs of translation and proofreading (you can set a general rate for all languages and add individual rates for some specific languages)
- Costs of each translator’s contributions counted separately to see how much each is supposed to get
Top Members
