CCC Turkey Evaluation TMS Project

-

Overview

For this project, our team focused on a gaming company (ABC Games) and evaluate the best suitable TMS for this company to obtain. 

Three TMS that our team evaluated for this project

1) Crowdin

2) Transifex

3) XTM


Team Members

Our team members are Chih-Yuan Chen, Ruby Lee, and myself. For this project, our team formed an imaginary company called CCC Turkey Evaluation. 


Project Specifications

The imaginary company- ABC Games was based on an actual gaming company. This gaming company focused on game developing and publishing as well as IP licensing. This company has currently released 36 games in the market (computer + mobile).  Based on our knowledge and experience, we decided on seven essential criteria for a TMS to be counted as suitable for a gaming company. 

These criteria include:

1) Voting for the best translation

2) QA check for consistency

3) Access to terminology

4) Security

5) Price

6) Visual Feedback

7) Live Participation

Furthermore, based on these 7 criteria, we've asked ABC Games to evaluate the functions on a scale of 1-5. We also surveyed the translators to do the same evaluation and added up the numbers to help determine the priority of the seven criteria.  

Then based on the three highest scores, we further analyzed the three TMS companies according to the criteria to select the suitable TMS for ABC Games.

Please refer to our video presentation for the final result. 

Enjoy!

CAT Introduction (Lessons Learned)

-
The purpose of this portfolio is to introduce the basics of CAT tools.  While there are multiple CAT tools online, the CAT tool used in this portfolio is SDL TRADOS. The ultimate goal of translation technology is to reach a FA, HQ and UT translation. However, we are only able to achieve any of these two combinations.   There are two parts to this portfolio. The first is "Useful Tips for Regex with SDL Trados (QA Checker)" in which Language-Specific Regex for SDL Trados QA Checker/Find&Replace were written and verified to increase the quality and speed of the translation.  The second part is the "Team CAT Translation Project " in which we simulated a real-life scenario between the language service provider (LSP) and the client.
