TransPerfect’s Tech Division Enables Global Content Creation and Management within a Unified Platform

Translations.com, the technology division of TransPerfect, the world’s largest provider of language and technology solutions for global business, today debuted its GlobalLink Connect integration for Contentful’s App Framework. The integrated solution gives Contentful users a new way to take advantage of GlobalLink Connect’s translation workflow management and create new translation requests within the familiar interface of the Contentful application.

GlobalLink Connect for Contentful allows users to link content between existing and future systems on a single platform with one set of APIs, a single unified system of record, and the ability to initiate, automate, control, track, and complete all facets of the translation process. The combination of Contentful and the extended localization workflow capabilities of GlobalLink enables users to manage global enterprise content with minimal effort and virtually no IT overhead.

With content at the heart of customer experiences, it has become increasingly important for brands to integrate their tech stack and channels around a single source. Contentful’s recently launched App Framework allows users to utilize their favorite tools and frameworks and easily connect them to a single, unified platform, maximizing value and giving them more control over how they submit and manage multilingual content from within Contentful.
