SDL MultiTerm Online

Differentiate yourself from the competition and connect all levels of the Translation Supply Chain. With SDL MultiTerm Online, Language Service Providers can quickly add value instead of simply lowering translation rates by providing a web-based solution for ‘Anytime, Anywhere’ access for customers terminology.



The online module of SDL MultiTerm Online is the web-enabled component for accessing centralized terminology. It encourages collaboration and cooperation between Language Service Provider and customer in creating and maintaining a dedicated database of approved terms. With SDL MultiTerm Online, different stakeholders can directly enter or edit terminology that becomes instantly available to the Language Service Provider and its translators. User rights are controlled through administration. The ability to collaborate in an online environment completely eliminates the need to manually control, share and exchange lists of terms, leading to a situation where terminology is proactively managed. This fosters the development of a strategic-level relationship between Language Service Providers and customers.

Terminology management is one of the most challenging areas in today's translation and localization projects.
