New XTM Cloud v10
XTM Cloud v10 is here now! The new version of the award winning translation management system was released to all users by the end of 2016. XTM Cloud v10 is the most feature-packed release ever and takes XTM to even higher levels of automation, collaboration and functionality.
Refreshed interface
Starting from the log-on page, users will notice a brand new look and feel to XTM. The interface has been updated with state-of-the-art, appealing graphics, providing better contrast and clarity. Improved screen layouts with greater consistency offer improved ergonomics and an enhanced user experience.
The main menu is now located at the top of the screen, releasing more space for important project data. The user photo can be displayed in the top right corner. The system configuration has been moved to a cog icon, which is next to the new XTM Messenger. XTM Cloud v10 is even more intuitive than before, so existing users will swiftly adapt to the refreshed interface.
New features
The new features of XTM Cloud v10 were designed in response to very valuable customer feedback. Current XTM users specifically requested the ability to view selected projects quickly. They also asked for improved communication between linguists and project managers. As smart phones and tablets are now ever-present, a specially designed mobile app was also a top requirement.
Integration with other tools is a recurring theme that XTM already handles well. Adding to the existing function-ality, XTM Cloud v10 now includes a full integration with InterverbumTermWeb. Additionally, users can monitor translation quality and performance through an integration with the TAUS DQF dashboard. The request for extra inte-grations with CMSs has been answered with new connec-tors for Git and Sitecore.
Translators said that they needed to see the meaning of inline elements at a glance, so XTM Cloud v10 gives the option to display them below the current segment.
The combination of these features, with a host of other improvements, establishes XTM Cloud v10 at a new level of translation management.
Collaboration
The new XTM Messenger introduced in XTM Cloud v10 simplifies and accelerates the exchange of information between project members, which is essential for agile translation. Thanks to XTM Messenger, teams can experience a truly enhanced level of collaboration, ask questions and receive immediate answers, without leaving XTM Cloud. Users can create new chats with PMs or specific users, while the confidentiality of the useridentity is assured by the use of nicknames. The result is that whole translation teams can communicate quickly and safely.
Advanced search filter
The advanced search filters give project managers a powerful, easy to use tool to perform their work. The newly designed advanced search window of XTM v10 makes finding spe-cific projects, such as ones that are overdue or for a specific customer, a breeze. These search cri-teria can then be stored as a filter which is immediately available from the project listing.
Anonymization
Many XTM users localize highly confidential text, so with security in mind, XTM International has developed an anonymization feature. This module identifies confidential personal data such as names, addresses or telephone num-bers, and masks them by replacing them with a placeholder. So when the text goes for translation, whether manual or machine translation, there is no risk that confidential infor-mation will be leaked. When the localization is complete and the target document is recomposed, the confidential data is automatically reinserted into the text.
XTM mobile apps for PMs
XTM Cloud v10 is mobile ready with apps for project managers available for iOS and Android devices. Project managers can use their smartphones or tablets on the go to review projects and allocate tasks. The new XTM app lists projects and enables the PM to update them. It also allows quick communication between users and customers. Lin-guists can view their list of tasks.
