Case Study: Alfresco achieves automated, real-time global website localization with Lingotek

Alfresco - Customer Case Study

Alfresco, a content management company used by nearly 8 million people across 180+ countries, needed a simple, scalable way to localize and synchronize its global websites and marketing messages. With content changing 50–100 times a month and plans to launch in six languages (and more over time), manual file-based translation workflows were too slow and error-prone, while pure machine translation couldn’t capture local nuances.

Alfresco implemented Lingotek – Inside Drupal, an embedded collaborative translation platform that automates translation workflows (machine, community, or professional) directly within Drupal, provides real-time progress statistics, and triggers translations whenever content changes. The integration eliminated emailed file exchanges, kept global sites synchronized, scaled with Alfresco’s growth, and enabled translations to be completed in record time.
