Dear Kilgray staff, I have just visited the room with presentation of MemoQ, but it all seems very complicated to understand. Could you please describe in just few words the principle of MemoQ's work

And if you into the equation Agile development, MT integration, Privacy and connectivity to other workflows (CRM, TMS, CMS), things start to get very complex.

Can it help with translating not so large texts, say, a 2000 words contract

Of course, it helps translating contracts, manuals and repetitive texts - you can reduce delivery times using it.

I need to go into the live questions and answers session now, so I will disappear for a few minutes!

I had some experience with Wordfast back in 2000s, when it was free yet

I can't quite remember how it worked, but I remember some words in the text were translated automatically

I installed a trial version of MemoQ about 4 months ago, but had no chance to apply it in my work unfortunately

It all turned out very complicated
10:36 May 28, 2014
Sandor Papp: 1193492
All
ok. well, a lot of things have changed since 2000. Basics are still the same, though: you can import documents to translate, store previous translations in your translation memories and re-use those
10:36 May 28, 2014
Alexander Kozhukhov: 8241

So I just would like to have a bried explanation of how it all works
10:36 May 28, 2014
Sandor Papp: 1193492
All
for upcoming translations
10:36 May 28, 2014
Sandor Papp: 1193492
All
the basic is the following
10:37 May 28, 2014
Sandor Papp: 1193492
All
you create a project, give it a name, set language pairs
10:37 May 28, 2014
Sandor Papp: 1193492
All
add your translatable documents to your project
10:37 May 28, 2014
Sandor Papp: 1193492
All
create a translation memory
