The magic behind the curtain...

Ease of use

  • Flat visibility of the entire project. Most actions are performed on a single screen.
  • Manual or automated sticky notes can be used for client and/or project-specific information. The PM can set the color and conditions of a sticky note easily with the rule builder.
  • Extensive use of hover text for functionality information.
  • A Knowledge Base platform for documents, unstructured information, client, or language-specific information. Customized tags make searching easier.
  • Semi-automated email handling. Email management helps reduce the PM’s workload, and emails are archived with the job. (This requires Microsoft Office 365.)

Quality Assurance

  • The Question and Answer Tool (QAT) is a unique feature that simplifies linguist question-and-answer handling.
  • The pull vs. push review method increases file review Subject Matter Expertise (SME) resource matching and review efficiency. Reviewers assign themselves to jobs, which are automatically sorted by priority.
  • ISO management tools to support ISO compliance initiatives.
  • Secure data encryption and MFA for data or security admin roles, as well as job access restrictions, are included.

Robust Integration

  • Unique integration with memoQ. Significant reduction in workload for the PM, with many automated functions that go beyond file analysis.
  • QuickBooks Online integration for invoice and PO reconciliation.
  • Integrates with PayPal and the PayPal Payflow Pro Gateway. The PayPal integration enables payments to vendors, while the PayPal Payflow Pro Gateway enables credit card processing. (This may require programming to integrate with another credit card processor or the use of a PayPal Payflow Pro account.)
  • Automated vendor management functionality is included with ProZ integration to continually search for candidates based on requirements.

Powerful Functionality

  • Sophisticated client account capabilities, such as:
  1. Corporate, site, and individual accounts
  2. Automatic corporate assignments
  3. Client document management (contracts, SOWs, POs, NDAs, etc.)
  • Vendor document management functionality for screening tests, CVs, Independent Contractor agreements, photos, and more. (Digital document signing requires the use of Citrix RightSignature. Programming will be required for other platforms.)
  • Advanced, fully customizable reporting includes the ability to create custom tile sets (dashboards), modify parameters, or create new reports.
