Connector Features

No complex integrations or costs associated with yet another piece of software. GPI’s Translation Services Connectors install or uninstall in minutes. GPI tests and supports all connectors for free and provides easy prototype projects and pseudo-localizations to make sure your CMS is configured properly to manage multi-language websites.

Leveraging your CMS’s out of the box features to support and manage multiple language websites is critical. Not only does GPI’s Translation Services Connector streamline translation workflows, but GPI’s team of website localization specialists will ensure your CMS is correctly deployed to manage your language sites AND your team understands all the language features provided within the CMS.

Cutting and pasting is inefficient and error-prone, GPI’s Translation Services Connectors can enable seamless content export and import workflows to the page level allowing you to select and publish only the content you need translated.

You have made a significant investment in your web content management system, do you really need to spend additional money and resources on more software? Other CMS translation connectors charge you and your translation providers monthly and annual license fees, consulting fees and support fees, increasing your total cost of ownership significantly.
At GPI we believe you should leverage all of the CMS features for language support and management first, and then use our Translation Services Connectors to optimize your workflows.
GPI provides a one stop solution for web content management translation workflows. If you are not 100% satisfied with the connector and our website localization specialists team, then simply uninstall the connector and move on.

GPI’s Translation Services Connectors seamlessly connect your CMS to our Award Winning Translation Services Portal. Since 2003, GPI’s Translation Services Portal has been a recognized finalist to winning numerous awards ranging from Annual Codie Awards for the Best Enterprise Portal Platform to The International Academy of the Visual Arts (IAVA) and W3 Awards for design and navigation. The Translation Portal can be fully customized and uniquely branded for clients. See: www.translationportal.com

Since each of the supported CMS’s has their own unique development platform, the GPI team developed a code-base which allows our connector application to target each CMS platform. GPI believes strongly in employing software development standards and best practices. By adhering to industry known best practices, we ensure the GPI Translation Services Connector is optimized for performance, security and a maintainable code-base.

We utilize XML and its related technologies for the data persistence. Any content we export / import from a client’s CMS uses XLIFF. XLIFF (XML Localization Interchange File Format) is the standard translation format recognized by many Translation CAT tools. Adhering to industry standard security protocols for web applications, GPI’s Connector and Translation Portal utilizes uniquely generated tokens, strict access privileges, and fine-grained authentication and authorization rules for data security and integrity.

GPI Translation Services connector employs a multi-tenant application architecture. This is a design choice because we required the application to function as a container that includes zero, one, or many customer-specific pluggable components. This approach gives us the ability to securely persist client data separately and launch new customized and client branded portals within minutes.

GPI is an ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certified Translation Service Provider (TSP) and has passed all requirements for the core policies, procedures, guidelines, and associated resources and activities and other aspects necessary to protect GPI and our clients from business and legal risks through data management practices that are compliant with ISO 27001 standards.
