What
MetaTexis
offers |
Value for money |
Unrivalled.
There are no other tools which combine low price and professional
features in the way the MetaTexis products do. The MetaTexis products
combine fast, innovative and powerful functions with a low price: You
only have to pay a little more than 100 EURO to get a professional and
user-friendly tool. And you only have to pay a few hundred EURO for the
MetaTexis Server. You are invited to compare the price and the license
restrictions with other CAT tool vendors like TRADOS, DejaVu, SDLX
or Wordfast. You will find that MetaTexis is unrivalled in value for
money. |
Ease of use |
Intuitive and
user-friendly.
After installing a MetaTexis product you can start working immediately. The
Start
Assistant lets you define the main settings of MetaTexis for Word in a few seconds. You only
need to run one program you know well: MS Word. And, unlike TRADOS you do not have to run several programs at the same time.
Unlike DejaVu or SDLX MetaTexis is fully WYSIWYG enabled. |
Compatibility |
Integrates easily.
MetaTexis for Word can read and write TRADOS and Wordfast documents.
The professional MetaTexis products can even directly use the TRADOS Workbench.
All MetaTexis products can import and export TMX documents. |
Installation |
As easy as it can be.
Both MetaTexis for Word and the MetaTexis Server can be installed and
set-up in a few minutes. There is only one installation program.
MetaTexis for Word starts up very quickly because MetaTexis
requires almost no compilation (unlike Wordfast). |
Error proof |
Secure handling.
You can hardly corrupt a document (except if this is your very
objective). Compared with TRADOS and Wordfast, MetaTexis for Word uses a superior
technology to identify and manage translation units in a Word document.
Moreover, all MetaTexis products use professional database engines;
therefore, the handling of the
translation memories and terminology databases is secure and fast. |
Integration |
Smooth. MetaTexis
for Word integrates perfectly in Microsoft Word, thus combining the features of
the most powerful Word processor with the ease of use and professional
features of MetaTexis. MetaTexis for Word integrates absolutely
seamlessly in the MetaTexis Server. You will hardly notice if you run
you TM locally or via the MetaTexis Server. |
Statistical features |
Complete. MetaTexis
for Word not only provides detailed information about the documents translated,
but also about each translation unit, including the translators who have
worked on them. The MetaTexis Server can record all kinds of activities. |
Quality management |
Unique combination of
features. MetaTexis for Word combines the WYSIWYG approach and formal
quality checking in unique way. The function Go to next TU to be
revised allows you to navigate to any TU which need to be revised
for any reason. The MetaTexis Server is unrivalled regarding
ease-of-use, and it even includes a little WWW server! |
Support |
Fast and competent.
Directly by the programmer himself. Each user can influence the
development of the MetaTexis products by sending an email to the
MetaTexis support. |
