Travel search site Kayak.com has deployed Translations.com’s flagship globalisation management system (GMS) product, GlobalLink Content Director as the company expands into international markets.

The development emerged as Kayak required a solution to launch French and German versions of the website.

The integrated translation workflow, server-based translation memory, and specialised content adaptors in Translations.com’s GlobalLink Content Director fit all of Kayak’s stringent business requirements.

Steve Hafner, CEO of Kayak, said, “We performed a very thorough review of the translation industry and determined that Translations.com was our ideal partner. The GlobalLink GMS software suite was the perfect fit to help us automate the management of our translation process. Additionally, Translations.com’s leadership position in the travel industry, attention to detail in the early stages of scoping the initiative, and their ability to fit the localisation process around our existing workflows, were key factors in our decision.”
