XTM Cloud is a translation tool for a new age of translators and LSP's - an online CAT tool to rival desktop solutions. XTM Cloud enables freelancers to use cutting edge translation technology at a competitive price. It scales perfectly allowing teams to work together and build a powerful workflow. With translation workflow management, easy to use CAT tools and best in class file filters, XTM Cloud is a true independent alternative to other available products.
Highly efficient, real-time collaboration
Centralized content:Translators, reviewers and editors are able to work on the same content at the same time, dramatically improving production times.
Highly leveraged linguistic assets:Translation memory and terminology are held in the cloud and are shared between your translators in real time. The TM is saved as the translators work and matches are then propagated throughout the project.
Automated workflows:Workflows are customizable, and fully automated. Users are automatically notified by email of new tasks. When one step is complete, the workflow moves on to the next step, and the relevant user notified. You don’t have to waste time co-ordinating projects.
Designed for collaboration:Large projects are easily divided between translators, who work together, sharing resources between each other dynamically. Projects are managed within XTM, with tasks such as adding users and altering workflow achieved in minutes. Upload and download your TM or Terminology files with ease.
Client access:Yourclients can be granted access to create projects, check progress and download translated documents. They can also take part in the workflow and carry out quality checks.
Machine translation integration:XTM is fully integrated with Google Machine translation and Asia Online, a machine translation system capable of near-human quality translations, in over 500 language pairs. Incorporating MT into your production processes can vastly cut translation times.
Built from the ground up, with simplicity in mind
A Single Solution:XTM provides a fully featured CAT tool and Translation Management System within a single package simplifying the translation process.
Simple, intuitive interface:XTM has been designed to be intuitive and easy to use, and requires no lengthy training to be able to use it properly.
Best-in-class file filters:XTM provides support for all common file types. Upload your source files and XTM automatically analyses and matches the file ready for translation.
Open Standards:With the use of open standards throughout XTM, there is no vendor lock-in trap. At any time you can import and export your data for use with other packages.
Complete Translation Management Solution
Security:The security and confidentiality of your translation assets is an issue we take seriously. Your projects are hosted securely and privately on our system and will not be shared with anyone else. XTM has passed stringent security audits.
Real time metrics:With real-time metrics, project managers can stay on top of progress, gaining an accurate snapshot of the project at the click of a button.
Highly flexible and configurable workflow:The translation workflow in XTM has almost total flexibility. The workflow can also be automated, so no time is lost between stages of the translation process, and new users can be added and working within minutes.
Subcontracting:XTM allows project managers to subcontract work to agencies. They can then confidentially allocate their translators to do the work. As all assets stay on the main system, everyone has an up to date view of the progress of the project.
Very short Implementation timescale
Highly affordable, no hardware costs:There are no large upfront costs with XTM. You pay monthly on a subscription basis, with support included. There is no expensive hardware to buy and maintain, as we host the entire system on our servers. A 10% discount applies to 12-month subscriptions, with prices starting from as little as £8/month.
Browser-based SaaS:with XTM Cloud there is no desktop software to install and upgrade. You simply login using your web browser. Upgrades are automatically implemented by us, usually every 3 months.
Support:Support is fully included in your monthly subscription. Our support hours are 0800-2300 CET.
Training and Resources:We run free live online training sessions several times a week. There are also training videos on our website.
Scalability:XTM was designed to be completely scalable, from single user, to systems with hundreds of user, collaborating on vast projects.
Open APIs:XTM can be fully integrated with your existing CMS or other systems.
I was impressed with the speed of delivery, up and running in approx 24 hours. Translator went straight in armed with the manual and training videos and didn't put a foot wrong. Job done.

XTM’s cutting-edge, standards based translation management technology is designed to allow us to streamline our localization process. We spent the better part of a year assessing potential vendors, and we found XTM Suite to be the most cost effective solution for our needs.

You should consider testing XTRF-TM. It is an online Customer, TM, Terminology, Translation environment. You are able to manage customers, translators, projects, TM and Terminology.
We are using it for our all projects in our agency in Brazil.
By the way, it is cheaper and better than SDL Trados, Across, and other (in my point of view). It is worth trying.

We are excited about our partnership with XML-INTL and feel that this new translation module is a natural extension of the DITA CMS. We strongly believe that their cutting-edge translation management technology – namely the translation memory and the terminology management tools - will appeal to many of our customers who wish to streamline their localization process.

If you want a great tool at a reasonable price, I recommend you connect with any member of the XTM sales team. XTM has a flexible tool that leverages cloud technology in addition to all the traditional bells and whistles. I've seen about a dozen demonstrations of Translation Management tools in the last 8 months, and XTM was clearly a lot of bang for the buck. This tool is strong right out of the box. If anybody would like a candid off the record private conversation about the companies I reviewed, I'd be happy to talk via Skype or phone.

Just made the switch from Trados to XTM Cloud. So far, it seems like the best thing I've done in ages. As an OS X user, I had to rely on virtualization to be able to use Trados, and I've been looking for an alternative for a long time, discarding Wordfast Pro, Heartsome and similar applications in the process. XTM Cloud is pretty intuitive, once you rid yourself of the Trados mindset, and, for a web based interface, it's pretty snappy. QA is not as extensive as in some of the most popular CAT tools, but it works, and the concordance and suggestion tools available seem to work better for me, than the ones offered in Trados Studio. File conversion is not foolproof, but their support is very helpful. It takes a little time to set all the parameters associated with each client, but once it's done, it's very easy to create projects. Word count / analysis and progress measuring is easier and faster than in Trados Studio! It supports all the file formats that I work with (and many more) - Microsoft Office, InDesign, XML, and HTML, as well as XLIFF and TTX for those who rely on agencies sending out Trados formats.
In summary, performance is fast, no stability issues so far (knock on wood), and usability is different, but definitely not harder than Trados/SDLX......I think I just got myself a new CAT tool.

Thank you for your help and patience. The tech support you provided was excellent. Knowledgeable and very fast, as well, so I did in fact just meet my deadline, which I could not have done without your help.

XTM has been an integral part of our growing translation business and has contributed greatly to our efficiency and accuracy. We tested different translation software, and concluded XTM offers the best overall solution for our translation agency needs. XTM Cloud is straight-forward to use for professionals in different locations and we have benefited greatly from building translation memories through XTM.

In every way, XTM is really freelancer-friendly. For the last 3 days, I have been quite happy to have met XTM which helped me translate 20,000 words in 3 days (of course I used my existing TMs). However, XTM's part in this work was undebatebly great. Only about 15 buttons on the screen, therefore you do not feel like a pilot flying over Atlantic and you do not have work on the same computer all the time. You can just log into your account and work smoothly on any computer with an internet connection. I am very grateful to you and what you have achieved is more than I expected. Respect!
