Case Study: Cvent achieves 30% faster localization and global reach across 18 languages with Phrase Localization Platform

Expanding global reach through centralized translation management

Cvent, a leading cloud-based event management company with 2,700+ employees that merged with Lanyon in 2016, set out to expand into 18 languages across 100 countries but struggled with globalization because developers, writers, and translators were distributed worldwide and relied on spreadsheets and decentralized tools. The lack of a centralized translation-management platform caused delays, errors, and made real-time coordination, version history, and in-context editing difficult.

After evaluating vendors, Cvent adopted Phrase as a centralized, web-based localization platform that unifies workflows, automates processes, and supports all needed languages and file formats. The migration—expected to complete within a year—has already improved collaboration and reduced mistakes, with projected translation-management time savings of up to 30%, putting Cvent’s internationalization goals within reach.
