Benefits

1. Translation review and editing:

• As a Wordbee Beebox user you can preview and approve translations before updating the production site.
• The Beebox Connector supports editing of translations directly in Sitecore v9 CMS, with the ability to send those changes to your translation team for linguistic approval.

2. Translation cost optimization:

• Automatically identifies if a sentence or paragraph has already been translated in the past. The system automatically reuses all past translations and only sends the new contents to your translation provider:
• Automatically analyses your new contents to identify potential paragraph and sentence repetitions to avoid sending them twice for translation. This may lead to a decrease in overall translation volume of 20% or more. Basically, will be able to define if you want your translation provider to only receive unique content or not.
• If your site has already been translated, you can have your all existing translations aligned and submitted to your translation team for approval. This will allow you to reuse the contentsin the future.

How does the implementation work?

The Beebox Connector is part of the regular Sitecore package. The package includes a user interface to manage translation jobs. The Connector then communicates to the Beebox middleware using the HTTP protocol.

The Beebox server is installed at the Sitecore owner’s premises, a Sitecore integrator or with a language service provider. A single Beebox server can connect any number of content management systems with any number of TMSes or translation teams. Wordbee can provide a list of LSPs who already operate a Beebox server.

Both Wordbee Connector for Sitecore and Beebox are off-the-shelf products. Installation and configuration support can be provided by Wordbee upon request.
